002=VIDEO [ forward dated to March 10th ]
[ It's an evening like any other since the beginning of the blackout ─ since the last rays of sunshine have disappeared behind the horizon already, there are few people left on the streets, whatever little light there is still around coming mostly from candles in the nearby windows and an occasional brazier a person or two may stop by to warm up on their way home.
Even so, it shouldn't be difficult for anyone familiar with Aldrip to recognize the area shown in the video feed despite the surrounding darkness ─ and that's doubly true for those who have been through their "sentencing". The building displayed is, without any doubt, the City Hall, the very same where the Council (supposedly) dwells and casts their judgement upon the Chosen. The person filming this, whoever they are, approaches the main entry to the building before stopping right before its doors. They reach out to it, but instead of placing their hand on the knob as some might have assumed, they press their palm against the surface of the door instead. It's at this point that the mysterious figure speaks up, and those who know him will surely have no trouble realizing who it is. ]
... Restriction 666 released, dimensional interference field deployed.
[ Multiple elaborate magic circles start appearing from beneath his hand, their blue light illuminating the area and making it easier to see for those who haven't recognized the place yet. Paying them no mind, the voice continues: ]
IDEA Engine, linked. BlazBlue... activate.
[ An ornate crest flashes in front of him, and then the screen is filled with blinding light. What follows is a loud sound of an explosion, but it doesn't come just from the recording ─ no, anyone in Aldrip will probably be able to hear the almost deafening, sharp noise. The whole thing only lasts seconds, probably, but it might feel like it takes longer than that for the light to finally fade ─ and once it does, the area is completely unrecognizable. Where the City Hall stood just moments ago, there is nothing but a sea of fire and rubble. Surely, there are screams, too, and people rushing in to see what was the cause of the explosion ─ but their voices are drowned out by the sound of falling rocks and crackling fire.
Finally, Ragna turns the charm to face him, appearing completely unfazed like he didn't just raze a building to the ground. ]
The sentencing's been called off. I'm done playing their games.

You seriously think they were gonna do it?
[ That's not exactly the answer to her question, but at this point, he's almost positive the Council never meant to send them back, at least not willingly. Maybe if he could force their hand... but not on their own, that's for sure. ]
If they had any intention of doing that, they would've probably done so already.
no subject
...Who else can take us back? Do you know where to start looking for that sort of power?
no subject
[ It's a bit complicated; he's no stranger to "that sort of power", but the problem is indeed finding it. But even without that, in his experience, just killing whoever is running this world should enable them to go back, too.
All the more reason to assume the Council is still fine and dandy. ]
I wouldn't worry so much about them if I were you, though. I doubt they're dead.
no subject
[Damn, you know what? She can't even be angry. Just tired. So very very tired.]
Yeah, I am extremely doubtful that you killed any of them. Including Jerry.
no subject
If you can figure out how to summon Amaterasu Unit into this world without an Eye, then be my guest. Do that, and I'll handle the rest.
[ He snaps back at her, not caring if she can even understand half of what he's referring to. ]
And yet he's not here to detain me. So clearly, something's different.

...It's probably the recovery or "update" interval. I'm giving it less than 24 hours. Would love to be proved wrong, though.

[ Guess who sticks only to using the charm and has never bothered to acquire a tablet, and thus has never seen any of those messages! ]
