[Orb]

[dash_dynamic]

[There is a man in very princely clothing staring down into the orb. He looks...well, "worked up" would be a good way to put it.]

This is for communication, right?

[And he takes a deep breath...]

SOSUKE! RENN! HANT! SAKI! MIU! GUNPHERD! ...Hiroto? IS ANYONE ELSE HERE?!

[Nope, he's not freaking out at all as he's yelling into the orb. He's calm. So calm. Ever calm. Staying PERFECTLY calm.]

Does anyone at least know which of the Brane Worlds this is? I need to find my way back to Human World or Engine World as soon as possible! And WHY everyone here seems to think I'm some kind of prince?!

[Yes, he is PERFECTLY calm. Ever calm. So calm. Just ignore his...twitchiness.]

[It has not yet occurred to Gunpei that maybe, just maybe, they shouldn't be yelling at each other like this. He's still too wound up to think straight.]

I'M GUNPEI ISHIHARA! I'M LOOKING FOR THE OTHER MEMBERS OF MY TEAM, ESPECIALLY GUNPHERD! HE'S AN ENGINE! HAVE YOU SEEN HIM?

[adventurerextraordinaire]

NO I DON'T THINK I'VE SEEN HIM! WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE'S AN ENGINE?

[dash_dynamic]

HE'S AN ENGINE! HE'S...

[A little bit of gesturing of Gunpei illustrates this...not that the gesturing is exactly helpful.]

HE'S KIND OF LIKE A CAR! BUT REALLY BIG! UNLESS HE GOT SPLIT INTO HIS ENGINE SOUL AND ENGINE CAST, IN WHICH CASE HE WOULD BE KIND OF SMALL!

"I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT! SORRY!"

[dash_dynamic]

YOU KNOW, LIKE A CAR!

[This time, his gesturing isn't a total failure and he's doing a pretty good pantomime of driving a car...or at least, what would be a pretty good pantomime of driving a car if one was from a world in which they had those sorts of things.]

YOU KNOW, VROOM VROOM? HE'S A GIANT CAR!
