Know your Place

[Sitting on a bed in one of the rooms in CB1, Alexei was quietly looking through and listening to the contents of the journal he had found when he woke up. It was all he had to work with after waking up where he shouldn't be. He shouldn't even be conscious to comprehend that he wasn't. He should be dead, but this pain...it was all wrong. He had so many questions swimming through his head when he found himself alive, but he needed to be careful.

He had no idea what he was dealing with yet or what sort of people were here. He placed the journal down off to the side, with a blank page open. This book was the quickest way to get his answers, but he was still rather suspicious of it. It can write, speak and even show who was communicating...what magic was behind it? He picks up his writing utensil. He'll have to be careful how he writes and where his position was from the journal, if it was capable of capturing images of the communicator. He didn't want to be seen or heard yet. People could be out for his head for all he knew.]

From my observation I can see that this journal is a type of communication device. As to how, I don't quite understand. Books should not be able to write on its own, or speak or make images appear. Can someone explain to me how this simple book has been turned into a form of communication? And what other capabilities does it have besides recording sound and image as well?

Can I assume that people who are using this are residents of this strange place? If that is the case, then I would also like an explanation as to where I am and who thought it would be funny to install wings on me. I also woke up without my equipment. What has happened to it? Who is in charge of this place? If this can contact them, I demand answers.

[A pause]

Please. I appreciate any information that can be given.

[ooc: Note, no one can see Alexei through the journal. He's suspicious of letting his identity known to complete strangers right now.]

[It's something in the evening now, after the sun had set. Alexei had decided it was time for him to head back home instead of continuing his stay with Mayoi. He hasn't...told Mayoi this, but he'll just have to inform her later. He's well aware of the experiment that's happening and this man has a handful of secrets he would like to be kept secret. So as he walks through the village, he'll be keeping his thoughts in check and as blank as possible.

On occasion, something might come up concerning a general complaint about mild headaches or wondering whether he should have mention something to Mayoi. In which case, that thought is quickly replace with the reasoning that he'll tell her later the moment the thought arises.

Once Alexei had return to his room, and made sure nothing had been moved, he decides to wander up onto the roof and spectate the village down below. He brought his journal, going through it and makes a quick note to a group of people.]

This is Alexei. I don't know if Noel mentioned it to any of you, but I would like to come see Nami. I heard what had happened and I haven't been able to make a proper visitation since I came back.

[His pen linger over the paper, absently pondering about Luceti as he waits for a response. Before he even realizes it, his thoughts began to wonder.]
