Full Immersion [for what it's worth]

Um....

Jin Uzuki. Its a character from a game you've played once.

Tell them your pretty sure some jerk teleported you up here actually.
Ask if you can get some help getting down.
ArcanePenguin Wrote:> James Hatch

Tell them that you don't remember how exactly you got up here, you just barely woke up.
Argenteus Wrote:> Your name is Fox McCloud.

"Well, my full name's Jin Grayheart, but a lot of people call me Link for some reason," he answers, without skipping a beat.
"And...you forgot how you got here."
"Maybe? I mean, I don't have any information about things I can't remember, so it may be that I never even knew to begin with how I got here."
The man sighs. "That being the case, why did you lie the first time?"
"It might not be a lie! Any of those guesses could be right."
"Just. Answer, please."
"I couldn't help it. I mean, you just seemed so eager for an absolute answer that I felt compelled to give you one..even if I didn't know if it was right."
"I suppose that's understandable," says the winged man, calming down a little bit. "Just..follow me, please. I don't think you're in trouble, but we need to clear this up with my superiors. The stairs are that way if you want to get back down, anyway."
"Sure thing!"

The winged man starts walking toward the forest, and "Link" follows. He tries to work out in his head how the helicopter-tail would actually, physically work, and gives a few experimental spins with his tails once or twice, nearly falling over the second time. "Whoaoa!" Jin does manage to recover with some flailing.
The winged man stops, and says in a voice probably intended to be as patient as possible, "What are you doing."
"Umm, I think we can eliminate me flying here. How in the world does Mairusu do it? I'm sure I'd have some kind of muscle memory for it if I'd done it before. Hey! Maybe I was teleported here. Magic can do that, right? Like, some mage might have done that to me as a prank or something?"
He starts walking again, Link following. The forest doesn't seem to get particularly thick, just stay at an odd sort of semi-jungle state with perfectly clear, wide paths to walk through, as if the whole thing was carefully cultivated as some kind of..show forest. "That sounds...possible. But it would be a very expensive prank."
"I did just suddenly wake up lying face-down in the ground, though. No way I'd lie face-down like that on purpose--breathing dirt isn't any fun at all! But I don't personally know any mages who could do that. Oh, maybe one of my acquaintances is a secret mage?"
"Hmm. I've never known a mage to be secretive--especially one with a profitable power like instant transport. Even necromancers don't mind being publicly known these days."
"Oh man, I know, right?" says Jin, pretending to know what he's talking aout. "But hey, at least they're helping people meet their dead relatives."
"I think you're confused. That's what a medium does. Necromancers offer cheap labor--if you don't mind your ancestor's body building your shop, at least."

They keep walking. Jin doesn't talk for a bit, wondering if he should spare this poor man any more pestering, but just a little too curious about this game-world to stop altogether.
