[Hello, Luceti. Have you been enjoying the strange little time shifts that have been coming and going these past couple of months? Because Kari hasn't. In fact, she's in the middle of one right now, and it's extremely unpleasant. Why is that, you ask?]

[Because she was just inside the elevator when they suddenly decided to not exist anymore. Unfortunately, they only decided to stop existing on the floor she was on at the time, so there's nowhere for her to go. At least it didn't turn into a bottomless elevator shaft to drop her to her doom. But they did turn into some kind of hellish stairway-purgatory with no doors, no windows, and nothing but two sets of stairs going up and down that simply lead to walls.]

[Thankfully, she has her journal with her to live-blog the incident.]


It's been 20 minutes now.
I'm stuck in a building somewhere. Like, literally. The elevator disappeared and now I'm apparently stuck in the wall.
The possibility of escape seems low.
Updates to follow.

The first hour.
There's no windows in here. Not sure how much air I have. Probably a lot.
It's cold. And hot. I'm so hungry.
And I think I left some instant noodles in the microwave.

Hour 2 of Elevator Purgatory.
I'm starting to hear voices.
No, seriously, these walls are way too thin. Maybe if I knock loud enough the people on this floor will start to think the place is haunted?
I'm like this close to trying to break the wall down.

Hour 2 and 10 minutes.
Don't try to punch walls with your bare hands.
Especially using the arm you broke few weeks ago.
It will hurt and you will feel like a dumbass.

Hour 3.
All hope is lost.
I've resigned myself to Elevator Purgatory forever.
Tell my mom I love her.

[Okay she's clearly being a little overly dramatic. But she's bored, and this doesn't look like it's going away anytime soon, so have at it! Feel free to specify what time your character is responding to, otherwise I'll just assume Hour 3. EDIT: And for people who might try teleporting in to save her, there's also a 100% power-cap shift going on inside the room, so anyone who goes in will be stuck with her until the time shift ends!]

Yes, I imagine that would be rather uncomfortable. How familiar are you with magic?

Well, if you were familiar there are a number of spells which could be helpful for your situation. A pity then.

[There's a slight bit of familiarity behind Kari's voice, though Ginia can't quite pinpoint why it sounds familiar. Something to mull over later.]

I'm going to have to keep chipping away. Want me to get something you can cover your ears with?

The one in here.

[ He keeps walking, this time heading towards the furthest corner from her. He's not expecting to find the edge of it but dammit he can try. ]

The kind that cancels out supernatural powers.

I can tell you whatever you want to hear.

[ Meanwhile he'll just settle back in this corner and make himself comfortable. ]

Did you really not think to check?

[Rei sees this and can't help but smirk. Okay, so she's a little mean-spirited at times.]

Y'know...we can all see this, right Kari-chan?

Because even if you didn't think an acquaintance was going to magic their way into your space, surely you must have suspected an SOS message would bring at least some strangers doing the same.

You could always just ask for help getting out.

[Honestly, it really, really is. By a decade or more.]

Which...building are you in?

Kicking it? But I don't want to hurt my feet! The book's the only thing here that doesn't have feelings!

[Oh, Kari, that's not something to get used to. Scribble scribble scribble.]

After this I'll help you to the clinic, make sure there are no injuries.

[There's something like an amused snort]

Could be both, around here. I can see if someone has something that'll get through a wall, though.

You could have certainly discounted the possibility first. It's the obvious one to check.

[ It's okay, Kari, Joshua looks just about as happy with this situation as you do. Unfortunately, he masks his unease with turning up the jerk 400%

Things he does not like? Include being vulnerable. ]

Not at all.

Just more dangerous to be casting spells without seeing where you are, and close to support pillars. It could cause a partial collapse of the staircase. If you were able to do so, you would be exerting force away from the area you are.

[Already heading that way then.]

And you haven't just battered your way out? Honestly, Kari-chan. You know the building will regrow.
