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.]

[no worries!]
Directions will suffice. I already have one thing far too eager to serve as my escort.
[yay :3 ]

[William has yet to discover the book, and he'll at least be able to recognize that. As he's from the 19th century, however? Video will be a great deal more foreign.]
I have no idea of what you mean.

On the other hand, this girl clearly doesn't know what she's talking about. Less than helpful.]
...A book does not have such a function, as you put it.

[ Okay waving now. See, she can prove that the book can do moving pictures. ]
Told you.

[No, William is not impressed by all of this.]
And--poking somehow makes the book do this.
