[ Voice ; Action ]

[lostblacksouls]

[ It's a little quiet, not to mention cold out this night... It'd be bad to be out without a jacket or something proper to wear, especially with that wind, but suddenly there's a post on the network.

An ominous voice speaks through the audio feed. ]

Only when the light within dies out does true darkness reveal itself... Will you become lost in the labyrinth of your sorrow, or continue on towards the sun?

[ Whether or not you had time for that to sink in, the feed is suddenly filled with much rustling and sounds of muffling over the speakers. ]

Ahhh? What, what, is this thing working? What a curious telephone! Is this how it works, hmmm???

A telephone is a form of communication where you can talk to people without having to be with them physically. In my opinion, it's rather boring... I would much rather visit my friends in person, but sometimes I am just too busy...

Who am I speaking to?

[playwitchu]

Ah, so they are like this comms? ... Plus, you can see their face in person too!

... Heather...sir...

What a lovely name~ A pleasure to speak with you, Heather. My name is Lau.

[playwitchu]

Thank you.... Eric gave me that name. Lau? That's a strange name.

[She switches to video, completely curious as to what the other looks like.]

Did you just arrive?

[lostblacksouls.livejournal.com]

[ Its meaning is even stranger. Noticing the switch, Lau presses a bunch of buttons before arriving on the video option... he's holding his communicator upside-down however. ]

Yes, I did.

[playwitchu]

[She blinks before giggling.]

You are upside down!

Has anyone told you anything yet about this place?

[lostblacksouls.livejournal.com]

[ Oh. he flips it right-side-up. ]

This place? Yes, I received some information about it. Another world, so fascinating.

[playwitchu]

[She giggles even more.]

Have they told you that it's fun here? [Cause it is! And..]

What type of dress is that you are wearing? [Cause she wants it.]

[lostblacksouls.livejournal.com]

Fun here? I should hope so. With so many interesting people, things are bound to be quite entertaining.

[ He blinks. ] Oh, this? This is a Cheongsam, a manner of dressing that was started in my country. It can be both formal or informal. The west seems to view it as "exotic", and many people enjoy ordering them from my company.

[playwitchu]

Yes! You just have to know where to look for the entertainment.

A Chee-non-gasm? Your company? You own a company, Mr. Lau? Isn't that hard?

[lostblacksouls.livejournal.com]

Yes, I am the President of a Trading Company in Shanghai, though we mainly trade with England.

Hard? Not really. I enjoy my work and I get to meet all kinds of interesting people.

[playwitchu]

I never heard of it....

Really? Like what type of people? I bet that they aren't as interesting as you~
