[So there's a half- naked, bewildered kid with tears streaming down his face in the square. WAS HE ABUSED, YOU ASK? DID SOMEONE TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HIM? OR PERHAPS HE'S ONE OF THOSE CRAZY MASOCHISTS WHO ENJOY PAIN because there's still a ghost of a smile present.

In any event, he's going to continue to appear bewildered for a few moments more.]

Shit-

[He hastily scrubs the tears away with both hands. WHOOPS.]

This isn't an illusion, I can already tell. [SWIFT RECOVERY!] So. What's going to happen next? I'll only be patient for a little bit. Two minutes, maybe three. The clock is ticking.

There's a clock somewhere, isn't there. I hear it. But...it sounds like it's in my head.

I never had a damn handkerchief.

[sixwinged]

The ticking never fucking stops. Get used to it.

[shortwired]

[is this like a fucked up Kogarasumaru bonding field trip. HE DID NOT SIGN UP FOR IT.]

Great. So what now? Where are we?

[sixwinged]

[ TOO BAD NUE. You're here now, deal with it. ]

The City. Some dumb ass pocket dimension without a door out.

Your team isn't here. If you're lucky, you'll be gone soon enough.

[superbeast]

Manners'll probably get you more than demands.

[shortwired]

[this just keeps getting weirder.]

Akira Udou?

[light smirk]

There is a time and a place for manners, I guess, but this didn't seem like one of those times. It still doesn't.

[virginwings]

It's for you to decide what happens next, but don't you know you've been brought to the City, this place, by the gods.

[shortwired]

Gods. What gods? Have they named themselves? Are they worshiped? Were wars fought over them, have people died on their behalf?
