something terrible happens? POST A VIDEO ABOUT IT ON THE INTERNET!!

So I was right-- my entire life really is one big joke. Man, do you have any idea-- is forensics even a thing in the "real world"!? There's no way I studied my ass off for years just so I could learn it was all made up. God... doesn't this count as "cruel and unusual"!?

[Probably a familiar sight-- a newly "realized" character rants his dissheveled little head off about the predicament he's found himself in. He looks like he could go on and on, actually, but he stops short and just sighs impotently.]

Sorry... [he just barely manages to spit out that apology] I'm kind of having a bad... day. [more like year, from the looks of him, but he doesn't bother correcting it if he's thinking it]

Uh-- [awkwardly makes eye contact with the camera, tries to smile, gives half a wave, but it's all pretty forced-- to be expected, really, of anybody who's just been told their entire life was entertainment fiction] Hi, I'm Adachi, and I... [maybe murdered a couple chicks for no good reason? well... not really, right? so... no need to mention it.] ...thought I was a detective...

[clears throat] So you got told the same thing when you got here, right? These docs aren't just playing a practical joke on me?

[riseup]

i am pretty sure they tell everyone that.
if it's a prank, it is the most elaborate prank in the history of all practical japery.

Sheesh... can't tell if I'm happy to hear we're all in the same boat. Well, misery loves company... and to be honest, my life was better off forgetting about, anyway.

--how about you, kid? Any worlds you were supposed to be saving before you ended up here?

[riseup]

all the worlds. all of them.
bluh, but i think a lot of people get stuck thinking about all the stuff they have to do back home.
if we are here, then we might as well make the most of it!
i promise it is not all miserable.

[justforthegun.livejournal.com]

Right! People get too hung up on the past. [The past full of dead ladies. BOOORING.]

So, you were a world-saver? And what do you do now?

[riseup]

well, i was working on it.

[riseup]

now i am just a kid again.
and kind of an alien babysitter! it is crazy.

[riseup]

you were a detective... did you work on any super cool mysteries?

[justforthegun.livejournal.com]

Uuuuuhh...

You could say that. Guy went around kidnapping anybody who showed up on TV... spent a lot of late nights on that one.

[riseup]

it is pretty sad when it happens.

[justforthegun.livejournal.com]

People show up on TV? ...they wouldn't happen to act completely different from how they usually do, would they?

[riseup]

uh, that is pretty much exactly what happens.
lucky guess.
