001 [action/accidental video]
[Yet another journal plays, one of countless left to their own nefarious devices. The video shows--well, mostly sky. No one said the books could aim themselves, even if they do turn on without help. On the right, however, a man can be seen standing on what looks like a ledge. In fact, anyone below that particular community building might see him as well. William has woken up in a very high place, and perched himself in the best spot to observe the activity below.]
Honestly. This situation grows continually worse. [The voice is bland, if clearly irritated. Fitting as it comes from a man whose posture would rival most wooden boards.] Whatever turn has brought me to this place is most unwelcome.
[Then a breeze blows not quite at the right angle to turn the page, but perfectly directed to send a shiver up William's back. Oh, and of course the black wings now attached there spread out, instinctively resisting the cold.]
And with these unnecessary appendages in place of my proper clothes. Honestly, if either of those ill-performing reapers were capable of such a thing, I could easily place the blame on them. I can only hope that the responsible party somehow has more sense, now that whatever poor joke they've attempted has come to its fruition.
[He raises a hand, fingers extended, up to the side of his face. There's a faint click as he adjusts his glasses, quickly replaced by an irritated sigh.]
Certainly they can return my scythe at the very least.
[He can't even jump down with proper balance while he lacks it.]

Re: [Voice]
[Welp, this has probably gotten most of the important stuff out of the way (aside from the fact he's still talking to someone up on a building top.)]
Excuse me for asking but how do you intend to get down? I'm afraid I'm not familiar with otherworldly abilities as of yet so I'm not sure how you might handle it. If you need medical assistance once you're down then I would gladly check you over.
