[➊ Action - Outside Mitchell Road]

[A blue haired man is standing outside in front of his house, looking so confused. Kaito woke up in the morning and realized he's been sleeping next to an unknown lady. Can you believe that? Probably he got drunk yesterday. Surprisingly, he's able to 'breathe', and his body is lighter than he used to be.

But still! Everything doesn't make any sense! He never had an affair with this lady, even though the picture frames showed that they're couples!]

Emergancy bite. I need an ice cream, as soon as possible.

[➋ Phone - Public]

Rin, Len, Luka, Gakupo, and yes, you too Gumi. I need a brief explaination on how you set me up on this prank. I can handle one or two, but this is way over the top. I had my limit, you know?

Otherwise, if that was none of your doings then it could be someone else. I guess...

[So much doubt /sob]

Oh Bakaito!! It's not a prank, it's all real! ♪

phone

[recklessice]

What you mean 'real'? I don't even date with that lady.

[rankaloid]

Doesn't matter! You're stuck with her now!

[recklessice]

Who is she anyway?!

[rankaloid]

How should I know?

[recklessice]

You sound like you lived here more than I do.

Explanation, please.

[And that lady has found you. Only she's now up and dressed, a labcoat over some clothes. She also doesn't look happy.]

Talking to the air now? Charming, another insane one.

And I don't think ice cream will solve anything, but I suppose humans always think of food first.

Who are you? And don't lie, I just haven't had time to search through the house for something with your name on it yet.

Action

[recklessice]

[Waving his hands desperately.]

I don't attend to do anything! Honestly!

[He is once a robot. Being a liar is against the rule.]

My name is Kaito. Perhaps someone threw me in out from nowhere? I don't remember.

[getsciencedone]

No you woke up here. Like everyone else in this town.

I'm GLaDOS and unfortunately you'll be staying in the house here.

[recklessice]

I have to stay here?

...Why? Is it because of master's order?

[getsciencedone]

Unless your "master" is really running this place, which I highly doubt. No.

Because everyone was brought here from different worlds and all dumped here.

Until we find a way out, we stay in the assigned housing.

[roadroller]

It's your Mayfield house! They must have sent you there after the party... or something. ♪

phone

[recklessice]

They?

[Partly of his weaknesses, he believes Rin.]

[roadroller]

Well, I'm using that word loosely since I don't technically know who's doing it. But that welcoming sign looked pretty deliberate, yeah? ♪

[recklessice]

Thanks for the info, Rin. [For not being helpful much.]

You said you and Len were stuck here for months? Then I guess we're on the same boat now?

[roadroller]

Mhm! Except you're probably going to have to be a dad or something. ♪

Action

[genkibot]

[And now there's a giant blue spider robot standing beside you. Giant as in the size of a small car. While it doesn't seem to have any human facial expressions, you can probably get the impression that it is really excited. It might be its tone of voice.]

Hello there!! Are you new here? Are you living here with Miss GLaDOS and me now? Let me introduce myself, I'm a Tachikoma! What's your name?

Action

[recklessice]

[Well hello, technology. Kaito is quite impressed.]

Yeah, I'm new here. [Doesn't even know why he gets along with this conversation.]

My name is Kaito. Do you have any idea how I got here?

[genkibot]

Nice to meet you, Mister Kaito!

But unfortunately I don't know how we got here. This town seems to like to kidnap people and things from all over the place to here. I think it's some type of virtual reality space in one specified network that we're all connected to and isolated from the rest of the net!

[recklessice]

It sounds like internapping case. Data been taken in one spot and couldn't get free.

Oh, you said you've been living with Miss GLaDOS? How's she like?

[genkibot]

Miss GLaDOS is...very focused on science and testing.

She sort of reminds me of the Major in that she is very recalcitrant or distant, but she sometimes opens up to people. She even let me call her mom once!

Phone ☆

[vividly]

Um... a prank? Sorry, I... I don't think this is a prank, actually...

Phone ☆

[recklessice]

Please, miss! My life is miserable! I have not yet ready on anything about engagement!

[phone]

[fishsingers]

I had nothing to do with it, I'm afraid. I arrived shortly before you did.

[phone]

[recklessice]

Yeah, I heard from Rin.

[Which is few minutes ago.]

And you seem relaxed.
