Ciel rolled his eyes at the first statement about the name, but didn't ask any farther questions. Since this person was a blinker now, he could find out more about him over time. He then pretended to look confused, obviously mocking him. "Wha made you come to that conclusion?" He sighed, resting his hand on his fist. "Yes, I am not from your world and you are not from mine, for I do not know anyone who would dress like...that in England. That's beside the point, these questions. What are they? I could answer them." Kid knew this routine. It was the same one he used. But he played along like Ciel hadn't been making fun of him. He did not comment on the fact that this wasn't the usual style of dress in Japan either. "Will I be able to get home? I think the answer is yes, but how? And someone said something about a room full of ping-pong balls that might be counted as a life and death experience? Is it usual to be killed by table games? And finally, are there any rules? To the house, I mean. Not ping-pong."

"Yes, you are able to get home, however, you must wait until the House decides to do this. This differs from person to person; some being a few minutes, to some being hours. Time back at your world stops while you're here, so whatever you were doing before blinking, you will still be doing it once you return," Ciel muttered, then tilted his head to one side. "Ping-pong? I don't know what you are speaking of, besides the rooms. Yes, some rooms can be dangerous to the point where you almost die."

Kid nodded, glad that no time was passing in his world. He didn't like the idea that the house could kill you though. "Can you die here? What happens if you do?" he asked. He didn't think it was as simple as waking up in your bed the next morning. He honestly didn't want to know the answer, but asked anyway. He almost felt like gripping his card gun, for whatever good it would do it. The flashbombs were probably more use against the house and what it would throw at him. "Is there a way I can avoid coming back here? It's not like I don't enjoy everyone's company," he said this scathingly. "But I'd prefer not to get almost killed."

Ciel shrugged, continuing to take a few more sips of tea. "No one knows what happens when someone dies. A few have died here, and we haven't seem them since. My theory is if you do die, you break the curse of blinking back. I would help anyone who would like to test my theory," he muttered smugly, then snorted. "And if you don't want to die it's simple, don't go into any rooms."

"And if you don't want to die it's simple, don't go into any rooms." "I'd gladly test your theory if I didn't have a shadow of a doubt it would kill me in my world," growled Kid. "But I do have doubts, and I should, if I have any will to live at all. But I also know that 'not going into any rooms' as you suggest, has next to know chance of working. Know why?" Kid raised and eyebrow, not angry, but reasoning. "If I stay, I will be vulnerable. I could, or some other temporary resident, find a way to stay out of this house without having to die." Kid brought out his card gun and spun it around his index finger. It was bulky and wasn't fitted to fire bullets. But he felt a little braver with it in his hands. (Hum...I know that machines ( minus robots ) don't work in the house. But I wonder about Kids flashbombs and gun. I've always thought his gun fired card by compressed air. Do you think that would count as a machine?)

(Uh, I don't see why it wouldn't work, since it is just compressed air, but »ƑαƖcση can probably answer that better than I can xD) "Very well. No one has ever wanted to test that theory, therefore I did not expect you to be the first," Ciel muttered, looking away from him with a huff. "Good luck with that. We have all entered rooms, even though they are dangerous. Most of us have worked together as a team to figure out each room, but so far there hasn't been an escape."

Kurt blinked in standing nearby, holding a mug of something steaming in both hands. His yellow eyes darted up from the rim of the cup at the sudden sound of people speaking though. Curious to see what was happening, he transferred the mug from his hands to his tail and padded closer to the little group.

(lelouch saw something in the distance, and im inferring that that's the exit)
(gnight mint!)
"No shi-" Kobra Kid was cut off rather rudely by the wind picking up to blow even faster, if that were possible, whirling around the Killjoy and letting out howls like a pack of wolves. He stood there, completely rigid, as the wind viciously attacked him, spitting out sand everywhere on the Zonerunner as the wind threatened to knock him over. "Just come with me! I think we found the exit!" He yelled back once he had found it within him to move, taking his hand off of his eyes after squeezing them shut to gesture wildly to the other to follow him back to Lelouch.

"You never know," said Kid, leaning in and grinning with some of his usual bravado. "I could be the first." He didn't think this hopefulness would fool anyone, but something made him want to outdo this boy. He may have been here longer, but that didn't mean Kid couldn't find things he hadn't. "Why are you so laid back anyway? You'd think in a house that tries to kill you, you'd a little more tense." There has to be an angle, thought Kid. If this house is 'almost sentient' then does it have a reason to bring us all here? Is there something that connects us in any special way? He eyed Ciel. He could think of two things off the top of his head that connected them. 1. They were from other worlds or times and 2. They were all survivors.

(I find it very amusing that there are two Kids in rollplay. In fact, the names are very similar, only off by a couple of letters. (Kids name being: Kaito Kuroba) )

(Btw, I just took my pills so I'll probably pass out soon o.o)
"Why am I so laid back? Perhaps because I am not in a room at the moment and partly because I have to give the new blinkers the same speech," Ciel muttered with a shrug. "Plus, I cannot possibly die here, not until I have taken care of things back home."
-- (Hi Pete!) Lelouch was still staring at whatever he had spotted in the distance, having continued to walk as Kobra went back to talk to the other person. If either of them were still in the room, he didn't know, but he wasn't taking any chances of turning around to see. He'd probably get blinded by sand.

(Okay ) "Something tells me," said Kid, flopping down onto the couch beside Ciel. "That from what you've told me, that the house doesn't take what you want into account. I want to finish..." he stopped before he said finish my stake-out. "I want to," he said. "Get on with my life. I don't have time to waist my brain power on staying alive in a - a - magic house!" And with my luck so far in this house, though Kid. The first room I enter will be full of fish... He had bad luck just by being here. (Note to self: Make sure that Kid's fear of fish comes up one of these days... )

(Omg Kid's fear is the best xD his reactions to fish though)
"This place is anything but magic," Ciel replied, getting his now empty tea cup on the table in front of them. The boy adjusted his sitting so he was still able to stare at Kid. "And everyone would like to get in with their life without coming here, but unfortunately that doesn't happen. I've been thinking, there has to be a reason the House chose the people it did to appear here."

"I have more experience with it. I'm possibly even immune, if what one of my classmates tried to do once is any judge." Kid wondered if he could bring any edge with him. He had never really considered asking her for help. But maybe he could bring something with him next time. "I was thinking the same thing. But I would have thought you of all people," he mocked. "Would have thought of it a lot sooner then I would have. How long have you been coming to this place anyway?" More information, thought Kid. I need more. An angle must be here, somewhere.

Ci el once again rolled his eyes, completely ignoring his comment. "I don't think it would be much easier it if was magic, but everyone has their own opinion," he stated, looking away some as he now thought. "Oh, quite some time now. About a year or so, enough time to get used t how the House works."

Kid nearly choked. He came up spluttering. "A year!" A year of near death experiences! This kid must be tough. Kid wondered if he could last that long. "Okay..." Kid got up from the coach and started pacing. "Not going to happen. I'm going to find the angle, and get out with whatever I find." And suddenly he turned and pointed at Ciel. "And I'm taking you out with me. Anyone whose been here a year, if half the things you've told me are true, deserves to get out as soon as possible." He sat down again with a huff, but didn't keep his hands still. He brought out a pack of playing cards and started shuffling them. "What can you tell me about the people who have...blinked," the word felt odd in his mouth. "What can you tell me about the people who have come here. Past and present. Do you know who the first one was?"

"You're willing to help someone who you have just met just because they have been here for so long? You do realize there are others here who have been here longer," Ciel replied, looking away. "I do not know who was the first to blink, though, and I think it'd be easier for you to meet everyone than me tell you. Perhaps next time we blink at the same time, and more people are here, I could introduce you."

"I do not know who was the first to blink, though, and I think it'd be easier for you to meet everyone than me tell you. Perhaps next time we blink at the same time, and more people are here, I could introduce you." "It's not based on how long you've been here," said Kid. "I don't wish death on anyone that I've just met, and this house is death, sooner or later. And if I can, if I get the chance, I'll make sure everyone gets out of here, not just you." He looked squarely at Ciel, "And I hope that everyone else would return the favor." He looked away, out at his surroundings. "I think that that would be a good idea, to introduce me to them. Maybe," he said, standing up and stretching. "Maybe with help I'll have a chance." Kid was a lone thief. He didn't work with others, unless you counted Jii. But that might be the only way he survived. (Have to go now. See you later. )
