( ＶＩＤＥＯ )

Operative Clover reporting, Operative Clover reporting!! Hey, does this piece of junk even work? [ KZZZT ] Oh gosh! Did I break it? [ it takes her a moment to settle the feed before she lies it in front of her and reclines against a nearby tree. It seems she's awoken in the forest, and she's clutching herself and shivering a bit. ] D— [ KZZT ] if you and your crazy cult have anything to do with this, I swear to God I'll rip off your balls and force feed them to you! [ a pause. ] Alice.. What did you do with Alice? I..

[ a stifled whimper, as Clover buries her face into her robe. ] This sucks. Why does this stuff keep happening to me? I don't get it— I.. Ugh. Where even am I this time? When am I? [ and, after a few moments of quiet contemplation, she stands up and walks past the journal before bending over to pick it up. Moments later, the feed shuts off. ]

( ＡＣＴＩＯＮ )

[ Over the past couple of hours, Clover has gotten a little more comfortable with being here; at the very least, she figures it's better than being in a giant facility with a watch snapped to her wrist loaded with virulent poison. You may see her wandering around community building 7, familiarizing herself with her new 'home', or just wandering around town yanking at her wings and then whimpering because wow they really are attached.. ]

Weirder things have happened, I guess..

[Rhyme is on her way home from the store, a bag of groceries in hand, when she hears a whimper of pain and turns to see a girl pulling at her wings. It automatically makes her worry. This girl must be a new feather if she doesn't know that's not a good thing to do.

So she rushes over to her]

Are you all right?? You shouldn't pull on your wings like that.

I didn't know they were literally attached to me. I just thought they snapped them on for.. who knows why. Why do we have them, anyway?

[ And she's careening her neck around a bit to see the other girl's respective wings. Sure enough, everyone has a pair. ]

They keep us alive. I'm not sure how we got them exactly, they say that everyone who comes to this world gets them... but that's why you should take care of them.

If one wing or the feathers are torn off, you'll become sick, and if both wings are torn off you... well, I think you can guess since they keep us alive. [She doesn't like telling a new feather such news right off the bat but it's better she knows before she tries to yank on them again]

You.. die? [ well this is a shocking revelation. Clover quickly glances to her wings, then back to the girl. ] How do you know? Has someone.. had that happen before?

[forgetfulchime]

From what I've been told, yes, it has happened to other people before in the past.

[She pauses then adds: ] Since I've been here I have yet to hear it happen to anyone though so don't worry! It's a rare occurrence. Just be sure to take care of your wings and it'll be okay.

A—Alright.. I'll just have to start remembering they're there. [ once she gets them in a comfortable position, she really doesn't feel them. It'd suck to get them caught in a fence or something. ] How long have you been here? You're pretty young.. it'd suck to have to waste your teenage years in a place like this.

I've been here for... eight months now! [Wow, has it really been that long already?] I arrived back in March, so I haven't been here nearly as long as some other people have. But spending some of your life here isn't all too bad! You learn a lot of things and make new friends.

[Like how she learned about her brother]
