REBEL 1 // Video

[The screen shows a girl wearing a strange cape-thing and a pair of hairclips, her eyes wide with curiosity as she fiddles with the chalkboard.]

Oh! Just what I thought! So this is just like the Dreamberry... I wonder why this is a chalkboard though? Everyone else gets nicer looking phones, so why do we get this...

[Wait wait right right! This was recording!! Get your act together, Noel! AHEM! She gives a smile to the camera.]

Um, anyway... It's nice to meet everyone! My name is Noel Vermillion. Th-This might sound strange but... Has anyone else here have this happen to them before? Being trapped in a different world with other people from different worlds and having no way out, I mean...

[She sighs.]

I really hope it's like last time where you get thrown back to the exact time they took you from... I have really important things to do back home...

[EXCUSE YOU, RACHEL IS A SCARY BUT ACTUALLY KINDA NICE PERSON OK. SHE DESERVES TO BE RESPECTED. Unlike you.]

Oh, that's too bad... I was looking for her. I really needed her help with something.

[Oh, right. She remembered something vitally important for these situations. It's something she needs to ask, given the nature of this place and past experiences:]

Um... Ragna? This might sound weird, but what's the last thing you remember before coming here?

Needed her help? For what?

[He doesn't even have the slightest hunch to what, and if Noel needed Rachel's help with something, it had to be important. And being left out of the loop was really annoying when it came to the rabbit.]

You weren't wearing... whatever the hell you're wearing, if that's what you mean. [It's called a new outfit, Ragna.] I started on my way to Ikaruga.

Th-There's nothing wrong with what I'm wearing! [Is there...? Noel thought it was pretty cute...] Anyway, I was on my way there too. I haven't seen you for a month.

[She is totally not dodging his question. No sir.]

I didn't say there was anything wrong with it. [Even if he made it sound like he intended to. Such is the curse of sounding annoyed whenever one speaks. And choosing words poorly.] And a month, huh? That's a pretty long time from where I'm standing.

[Pause.]

... I asked you a question.

[SHIT.]

Oh! Right! Y-Yeah, you did... Hahaha... [Hello I am not totally suspicious looking at all.] Umm... You might get mad if I tell you.

[................... STARE.]

Really? Now I'm not giving up until you spill it. All of it. So, spill it.
