side: hell

[ The light which spread everywhere intensifies, gaining not just brightness but color. It focuses with its intensity, golden lines swarming your vision. And where the gold coalesces, it leaves space between with a black that opens out like a sea, sweeping across your vision as your eyes adjust until you can see the truth of your new surroundings.

The golden bars are not the gates that welcomed you in.

They're the bars to a cell you've been dumped in with your unfortunate compatriots. A cell that sits in an inky sea of darkness, broken up not by light across objects in your vision but by brilliant colors each so solid that the darkness cannot cover them up. And, in your vision, guarding the cage is a figure, with six wings, each as golden as the bars. Their eyes are a milky expanse of white-blue light, emanating outwards, like they've caught you in headlights.

A jailer's keyring sits at their waist. ]

[ As your eyes adjust to the ... light, or lack-therof you can see the figure is a man in uniform, the milk-white eyes droopy and disinterested. There's a second figure behind him, arms folded and staring at you, her form similarly luminescent and maned with a lion's tail and her fingers curled in wicked talons.

Are you looking at anything else about the setting, or going to try to talk to one of the angels? ]

[ He's going to scan the room to look for any potential exits, but ultimately his gaze is going to end on the maned angel. ]

Where is this?

[ The room you're in has a window at the back, but it's a stained glass window and you can't see out it. Looking through the bars make it clear you're in a self-contained room that is segmented from the rest of the room by bars, but even should you get through the bars, you'll just... be in a larger room. There's what looks like a scanner of some sort next to the door

The woman answers: ]

What's it look like? Jail.

[ Rolls his eyes ]

Clearly. Jail in what location?

And help you plan another breakout? If you can't figure it out yourself, that's on you.

You must not be confident in your skills at all if even that much information would be a problem for you.

Yep! I'm absolutely terrified! It's my first day on the job, you see! Totally just a novice.

[ Her words might be cheerful but she says them with an anger that more or less ruins the nonchalance she might have been aiming for ]

...Wait. Are you serious?

Very! Duh! Obviously! I tell people it's my first day all the time, even when it's not!

That must get frustrating for you.

[ Honestly, between Leo making a distraction of himself and the stunt Kohime and Intensity are pulling, he's just waiting for both guards' attention to be off him. ]

Ugh, why are you pretending to be sympathetic?! You're the dumb bastards who got caught!

[ Well, as long as he keeps talking, it looks like he'll keep her attention.

Especially since she just wrote off Leo ]

[ Well. A distraction will help Maki out. ]

Who said I'm pretending? Just because you caught us doesn't make you the real bad guy.

[ Except for the fact the man is just fairly clearly watching her do that ]

Bad guy? What are you, a tv addict?

[ Fuck this entire situation. All of it can go straight into the garbage

Just. Watching for the next time one of them reaches into the cell ]

The opposite, in fact.

Right, a performer. What the hell are you doing breaking out of that?

[ Depending on how you prefer your time bending, he might witness John saying he wants a call and being taken out of the cell

He passes straight through the bars, as if they're not there at all ]

Haven't you ever wanted to just take a vacation?

[ Hmmmm interesting. ]

Do we each get a phone call?

Not in jail. That's not a vacation spot.

One each. That's it! No more.

Obviously the plan was to not get caught.

[ Checking to see if he got left with anything useful—a knife he brought tucked in his pants, his medkit + invisibility potions, cell phone ]
