[The video feed is activated! . . . to the image of someone tapping at the camera a few times with his finger before pulling back, looking perplexed.]

Oh wow, is this thing really on? Geez, you guys must be really high tech here! Hey, stop me if you've heard this one before, buuuut I think I'm kind of lost. Er, make that really lost, because the last place I was at definitely wasn't some techno-fantasy mansion place. I mean, not that I'm knocking that sort of thing. This place is pretty cool! I wouldn't mind having a thing like this for my own; it could be fun.

— yikes, I'm really getting side-tracked here! So, uh. Would anyone mind helping a guy out and steering me in the right direction? Ahaha . . .

[There's the slightest of pauses — as if someone's being extra cautious and alert — but that gets brushed aside quickly with a wide, goofy smile.]

It's 2012! Can't miss that, with all the people talking about "the end of the world" and everything. If it's not one thing, it's another, you know?

[jivitadana]

[There's always talk about the "end of the world" somehow, some way.]

It's 2010 at home for me.

[But how far in 2012? Hm. That seemed far enough though.]

[pierrotlafraude]

So . . . it's kind of like I'm from your future, huh?

Mn. Wonderland can bring people in from different points in time, even from the same world.

[And soon Minato found Adachi waiting in the hallway. He hoped that he didn't have to wait too long. He nodded to him in greeting.]

[action]

[pierrotlafraude]

— hey, you actually made it here! Not that I had any doubt or anything, haha. You know, you look a lot younger in person.

[action]

[jivitadana]

[Well, at least that was something. What it was, Minato wasn't quite sure.]

So do you.

[Which, actually, was also true. It was only about ten years age difference. But back to business.]

Most things you'll need from here appear when you think about it.

[action]

[pierrotlafraude]

I-I'm old enough, actually!

[He pauses, tilting his head to the side at that.]

Do you mean the closets?

[action]

[jivitadana]

[Minato nodded.]

Food works the same way.

[action]

[pierrotlafraude]

Really? Hey, can you get that from the closets, too?

[action]

[jivitadana]

You could. But the tearooms and kitchen have better food.

[action]

[pierrotlafraude]

That's good to know. I mean, I'd rather eat where the food's good, but I guess beggars can't be choosers, haha.

[action]

[jivitadana]

The food's pretty good anyway. You get what you want.

[Minato recommends the blue velvet cake. Just saying. The food being good probably comes with the Mansion wanting its residents to be happy.]

... You can pick any free room to stay in. It'll also change to what you want.

[action]

[pierrotlafraude]

Sounds like they're leaving a lot of things up to us. That's pretty neat!

[action]

[jivitadana]

Mn. Sometimes.

[For the most part. It is pretty neat, actually, on the whole. For Minato's part, he showed Adachi where the nearest tearoom on the current floor was.]

Has anyone told you about events yet?
