一 [ action/phone ]

[ Action | 503 Ricardo Street ]

[When Japan first wakes up to realize he's in clothes that are not his, a room he doesn't recognize and surrounded by things he may not have seen prior to now... Well, it'll be quite loud. In fact, first thing, he falls right out of bed (without stopping to even notice if anyone happened to be beside him) with a loud "Uwah!" and scrambles around trying to figure out where he is.

He's not really making much sense at first, stuttering things about opening his borders and America being too demanding and forceful, but feel free to greet him! Or stand there long enough and you'll catch his attention. You can also catch him after he's calmed down a bit! He'll be sitting somewhere and just trying to think it all through.]

[ Phone ]

[It's after the initial shock that he's able to pick up the phone (albeit a bit shakily) and speak. His voice comes across as hesitant and... well. Worried. At the same time there's a certain sort of determination to present himself well. To... whoever would be receiving this. He wasn't quite sure yet.]

H-hello? Ah, surely this must be a mistake of some sort... Is this a city of America-san's? [Westernization wasn't supposed to happen overnight. There's a pause as he tries to work this out in his mind.]

I-I did not agree to this, so if anyone is hearing me, please explain this immediately! Ah... that is... [It seems like he's struggling to come up with a way to fix his wording, so he sort of fumbles. It's a few moments before he properly hangs up.]

[And of course action can be open to anyone who wants to stop by or pass by etc!]

Comments

[fourseasons]

Ah, so it is America-san's...

[Whatever he was saying is cut off as he realizes part of what was just said.]

...1950?! [Wait, be calm and polite!] How is that sort of thing possible?

[beamiracle]

I'm not sure, but people are pulled from all sorts of times and places. I'm from 1986 myself. There's no way out of here that we know of...if you try to leave the town, you just loop back to where you started.

And...sometimes people leave as suddenly as they arrive. Some of us leave and come back after a while. That...was the reason I lost my composure for a moment just then.

[fourseasons]

[Different times and places? He's quiet, trying to wrap his mind around that when the mentioning of leaving and returning draws his attention. ...The reason he lost his composure? So...]

...D-does that mean--? [The phone sort of shifts as he brings his free hand to his head.] This is exhausting to think about.

[beamiracle]

I know it must be. My apologies, I must not be making a lot of sense...

...I suppose I'll just come out with it. You were here before, Japan-san. It's alright if you don't remember, since that can happen to people who are brought here more than once.

[fourseasons]

...I was here and do not recall it? [He's sounding so repetitive, but it's weird. And a little unnerving considering everything.]

S-surely my memory is not quite so bad!

[beamiracle]

No, I'm sure it isn't. It's just how it is sometimes...people can leave and come back, but not of their own free will. Sometimes they'll remember their time here, other times they won't.

[fourseasons]

[He's quiet for a long while.]

My apologies. [It's unfortunate he can't remember. He's not sure why he got to know so many people, but... At this time when he's really trying to make friends, it's a little sad.]

If it is not too much to ask, may I have your name?

[beamiracle]

My name is Lion Ushiromiya. It's a pleasure to meet you again, Japan-san.

[fourseasons]

T-the pleasure is all mine, surely! [He almost bows!! And then he remembers he's using a phone...thing. Right.]
