[Game 11] Team Late Start Where The Hell Are We

[arsgoetia]

[You are in... some kind of Doctor's office. It is warm to hot, with no AC. You may find yourself sprawled across the sink counter, the examination bed/bench thing, or on the floor]

[There is a girl here of fifteen or sixteen, wearing a jacket despite the heat, and looking very sharp-eyed]

[She is also covered in chalk and chalk drawings are covering most of the walls and floor in strange symbols and lines and curves. Candles are set in the four corners of the room]

"Well, what have we here?" She has a strong London accent.

I could try to explain, but I'm not sure it would be of much help...

[all_that_glitters]

A basic summary, at least. I'll judge whether it's worthy of my time.

[troublebrewing]

Okay.

Usually we're summoned from our worlds--there's a few that I know of that are all kind of... connected, like in an invisible web. Sometimes in small groups, sometimes in large groups, sometimes mixed... but when we're summoned here, it's for a special kind of purpose. Most of the times I've been summoned, it's to help solve some kind of mystery or problem. The people who call on us are all part of the same group... Lucia, David, Tristan, Bastien, Kit, Elli and Luka... I'm sure it was one of them who did it this time, but something went wrong and we ended up here.

[all_that_glitters]

[>8|a]

This girl interrupting that summoning is what went wrong, obviously.

[troublebrewing]

Probably, but she has to have enough power in the first place to do that... and Lucia's summoning is pretty strong.

[all_that_glitters]

Then she could be a magus of some power herself.

[troublebrewing]

Magus--?

[all_that_glitters]

[handwave]

A magic user. One who would normally summon familiars and the like, in my world.

[troublebrewing]

Oh, I see. It seems that way, but I think she made a mistake, and that's why we're here.

[all_that_glitters]

[ssigh]

What a farce. Do you know how to find this Lucia, then?

[troublebrewing]

Maybe... I really don't know where we are, though.

[reaches into her pocket for her cellphone, checking for reception]

[arsgoetia]

It has reception! Who would you like to call/text?

[troublebrewing]

[Mass text to Lucia, David, Tristan, Elluka:

This is Robin, I'm back. Did someone try to summon me? Something went wrong and I'm not sure where I am.

[arsgoetia]

[From Elluka: Not us... Have you asked anyone where you are?

From Lucia: Yeah that was me!! What happened???]

[troublebrewing]

[To Elluka: I'm in a doctor's office. A girl is looking for her doctor.

To Lucia: A girl who's looking for her doctor accidentally summoned me and a few others instead.]

[arsgoetia]

[Elluka: Yes but where the office is.

Lucia:Uhh okay that's weird.]

[troublebrewing]

[To Elluka and Lucia: Do you know a doctor named Alessandro Filangieri?]

[arsgoetia]

[Elluka: The name's familiar

Lucia: Uh yes wasn't he David's doctor when David was a shadowmonster??? Wasn't he the guy who gave people stuff that got rid of Sidney?!]

[troublebrewing]

[oh holy hells]

Of course--! Shuri and Kazuki got the fish from him!

[arsgoetia]

Lucia: I think you should get here asap what's going on?

[troublebrewing]

[turns to Valencia]

I'm sorry, can you tell me exactly where we are? My friends know who it is you're looking for. We've had contact with him before, when we were banishing Sidney.

[arsgoetia]

"We're in Edinburgh -- wait, banishing who?"

[troublebrewing]

Asmodeus. Where in Edinburgh?

[arsgoetia]

"...I ...see?" She watches you. "Filangieri's office. Look, why don't I take you back to these friends I stole you from?"

[troublebrewing]

Oh, can you do that?
