Mm, no, I can't see anything at all.

[he should maybe sound a little bit more concerned - but at least he doesn't sound super chipper?

but if Junpei is going to wander over closer to the green light, then higekiri will go and see if he can get closer to the red one?? presuming there are more long and thin things on that side of the room, he'll move carefully]


What a strange room. Will we have to find the way to leave now?

[Hm!! Bad. She looks at the door as the lock clicks, but instead of focusing on that just yet, she's going to try to flip both switches on at once.]

Maybe we'll just have to ask again...?

[But she has Doubts.]

You can try it. [He's ignoring both of them, keeping his steps slow and hopefully?? Ignoring whatever the fuck is on the floor. He backs off just enough once he notices he's not seeing anything and pulls out his clamshell, opening it and turning the display toward the light. Does this help? Can he see now? He'll get as close as possible and he's still bracing himself to run.]

Seek a way out. [It's mumbled, annoyed and frustrated. What's up, room?]

[ . . . . Hm!!]

I don't know what any of this is.

[HE'S TOO HONEST. but he does peer around the camera curiously, checking if there's any sharp edges? it doesn't look like a weapon? so that's pretty good. then he'll look over to the lockers and then start walking toward those, stepping around the wires carefully]

Is this someone's bedroom...? Where have they gone?

[please explain]

Maybe we can explain it later...?

[When they're not locked in this ominous recording studio filled with Stress. Either way, she's heading towards that switchboard, but also looking around to see if there are any cassettes that might fit into those slots.]

Oh what the fuck. [Alright! He'll say it! He looks outright pissed and his eyes flit from the bed to the camera to the computer and to his companions. Oh no. Fuck no. Fuck this, fuck you, and fuck off.

Nevertheless, his jaw clenches a little and he's taking another sweep of the room now that they're inside. If Higekiri's taking the lockers and Beck's taking the switchboard, he'll move toward the desk. He crouches first to see if there are any drawers to open, anything under the desk (hidden or taped or otherwise, like a key or notes or what-have-you), looks at the desktop itself and then moves to look at the computer. Is there a mouse? Can he nudge it, can he turn on the computer? Hewwo?]
Careful with the wires. See if you can find where else they lead.

[haha nice, guess someone else gets to touch the camera

but anyway Higekiri will at least look at the lockers and tilt his head? do they look like they're labeled at all? recently used? is there any dust in this room in the first place or is it all clean?

anyway he's going to hum - ]


Pardon the intrusion. If I may...

[and then time to open up the locker!!]

[While she looks over the switches and levers, it's the named buttons that really draw her interest. Though she frowns, she reads over each of them before pressing the button that says basement 1, only hesitating for a few moments beforehand.

To the others, as she does:]


Are you finding anything?
crashout: (G.I.N.A.S.F.S.)

[personal profile] crashout 2019-10-05 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[...can he pocket the items in the drawer? Because he's going to if so. Yoink. But he's looking at the note that says CAMERA, flipping it over to look at the back just in case. He's going to examine the handwriting as well. Anything noteworthy? Huh. He's also going to try and turn the monitor itself around, checking the back first to make sure before pointing it in the direction of the camera. He's keeping it in sight if he can, but if it doesn't budge he'll just leave it alone.

Higekiri seems to have the locker, and Beck's pushing buttons. Nice. Teamwork. He'll approach the abandoned camera though and look at the note again before he...does the stupid thing and puts his eye up to the viewfinder to see through it. Maybe the lens has something on it? He'll also fiddle with the buttons themselves. What is happening on this camera? Is there a tape inside? He'll try to check on those, too.]


Computer's asleep, or it's not even on. Maybe Higekiri will have good luck with the locker.

[haha hey what the fuck!

higekiri will honestly be in the middle of gathering all the items from the locker in his arms - stacking everything on top of the trays, but taking the "Used" cassettes and putting them aside, sliding them into his pants pocket just so that they don't get jumbled with the rest because he knows his poor fucking memory

speaking of poor fucking memory,

he turns when the lights flicker, blinking when he looks first at the bed shaking as if he's ready to fight it, and then glancing over to the monitor?? I'm sorry but he wanders over to get a closer look to see what's on the screen

and then he glances over to Junpei and Beck]


... we haven't done this, have we?

[She's about to press another one of the buttons when everything escalates at the speed of light.

There's a frown at the noises being played suddenly, a greater feeling of unease as the bed begins to move for no apparent reason, and when she glances over and sees what's on the computer monitor, she freezes. She stays like that for a few moments, glancing between the monitor, the evidently empty bed, and the two of them. The only thing that shocks her out of her stunned silence is Higekiri's question.]


What? No, I would definitely remember this! What the hell...?

[A few things happen. Junpei immediately shoves the note into his pocket upon noticing it's his own fucking handwriting. He takes a quick inventory of everything Higekiri's pulling out of the locker. He's looking through the camera, a sense of dread running through his veins when he recognizes himself and his own voice.

And he doesn't answer. He stares blankly at the camera for a while, looking at the bed before looking for a stop button.

What the fuck.]


...check the cassettes. [His voice is low, almost threatening but he's also trying to see if there's a tape in the camera itself or if it's digital. Is this all the camera does? Furthermore:] And let me have the flashdrives. The little stick things.

[If Higekiri gives them to him, he's going to go back to the computer and see if he can plug them in.]

[personal profile] banzais 2019-10-06 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
[JUNPEI, PLEASE CONFIRM WHETHER OR NOT THEY'VE FUCKED. But he'll just offer Beck an apologetic smile because he didn't mean to offend her.... Good to know this is all fake!

But now Higekiri is looking over at Junpei in confusion?? But yeah he'll go to the desk to deposit the trays so he can have his hands free, and hand Junpei the sticks! JUNPEI YOUR STICKS. And then he'll ask:]


What did the note say?

[since Junpei put it in his pocket all angry and stuff, haha.

Anyway! He'll also pull the Used cassettes out of his back pocket and turn to Beck.]


And what do we need to use these?

[???? HELP A SWORD OUT.]

[personal profile] uncurtained 2019-10-06 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
[She's more offended about this very convincing sex tape depicting something that never happened than she is offended at Higekiri, it's fine.

Finally, she forces herself to look away from the monitor. As she does, she gives Junpei a concerned glance, but she doesn't say anything to him. Instead, turning towards Higekiri:]


...Over here.

[She takes the cassettes out of his hands, putting one at random into the empty space within the switchboard. If there's anything that looks like it may be a play button, she'll press it without a word.]

The note just said camera. [Mumbling, he'll take the flash drives and work on trying to figure out what's going on. Can he plug them in? Can he see what's happening? That's his goal and he'll finally abandon the camera.

But he's going to also watch Beck from the corner of his eye to see how the cassettes go.]

What—

[HM.

Higekiri winces with the headache and has decided that having a human body is starting to come with a lot more cons than anticipated? He grits his teeth unhappily before moving - ]


I'm going to bring the light back!

[Before they have a fucking collision if they all dive for it at the same time.

So don't mind Higekiri will just nyoom toward the light switches so that he can try to flick them back on again - one hand resting on the hilt of his sword, the other opening his Clamshell to provide light the way that he'd seen Junpei do earlier. Monkey see, monkey do, babey.]

[Well.

She turns around once she realizes the bed isn't moving anymore, just in time to get a glimpse of the frankly terrifying new images on the monitor. She puts a hand to her mouth just in time to feel something wet and freezing grab onto her opposite wrist and breathe against her ear, which is why she immediately screams in both surprise and fright. The sudden blackout and splitting headache don't exactly help; her next step is to try to move away, and that's about when she realizes she can't move an inch.

She doesn't scream again, but she sounds plenty panicked as she calls out.]


Help!
crashout: (Short Loud Fast)

[personal profile] crashout 2019-10-06 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
[The fuck. He doesn't scream or even react beyond a "what" starting to come from his mouth as the figures on screen turn their heads. There are no faces. He suddenly understands nothing, and then suddenly everything happens so much.

He jumps at the sound of the voice, and the headache hits.]


Goddamnit! [Higekiri's getting the lights but Beck is yelling and he's fumbling for his clamshell to see if they can get some extra light.] Beck?!

[He'll start to step forward, but he's blatantly aware the monitor is on and keeps his attention split. Please let there be light as he tries to shake off the pain in his head.]
banzais: (» erase myself)

[personal profile] banzais 2019-10-06 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
[Hm, this continues to be bad.

Higekiri will look back behind him, taking a brief inventory of the situation, and then move. Even as he walks toward Beck, he'll look over at the monitor and his expression turns more serious at the carnage display on the screen.

Once he makes it to her, he retrieves the second cassette just in case - ]


Are you alright?

[he glances as the cassette in his hands, and then back at her, then toward the one she inserted - can he take the cassette back out? is there any clear difference between the two cassettes?

he's not going to say it out loud but he's going to take the guess that that wasn't normal for cassettes :( ]
