I demand to speak whoever is in charge!
[ the woman on the line, despite her rather harsh tone is looking as calm as she possibly can. the only thing revealing franziska's anger is the way that she clenches her sleeve, as if indicating that she doesn't have time for any of this nonsense. ]
Abduction is a criminal offense. I fully plan to prosecute the fool who dared to take me, a von Karma with the full force of what that entails!
[ there's the sound of a whip and the flash of something in the background hitting the wood desk in the standard Hinoto-Ri apartment very hard. she doesn't look happy at all and it shows openly now. ]
My father is dead. You will not extract any ransom from him. The von Karma estate is held by me, so asking my brother will be of no use either. If I have to negotiate a fee for my release, then so be it. I refuse to talk to these kinds of lowlifes in a normal circumstance however since all that has occurred in my flawless memory is waking up in this barely adequate apartment, I feel I have no other choice but to use this... device to hear the kidnapper's terms.
[ franziska won't even mention the dream she had. it is not relevant. however she is painfully reminded of one of her cases, and she involuntarily clutches her shoulder again, remembering the pain of the bullet once there but cuts the feed soon after ]

I'm sorry, ma'am, but this isn't even your world. Or mine, for that matter. I do not believe the laws of our worlds apply here. As for our kidnapper, I have not met them myself, but when I first arrived, I was told that our duty here is to save Hinoto-Ri.
[There's a pause, and she rolls her oddly pale eyes. This is a thing she probably wouldn't have done when she first arrived - the city has changed her.]
...Though to be honest, that's a pretty ridiculous goal, especially since it's not very concrete. I assume it's got something to do with the weird things that happen around here, but that's just conjecture.
[There's another pause before she looks horribly embarrassed.]
... I apologize for talking so much. Hopefully it has been of some aid, at any rate.

[ but what she says definitely unsettles franziska a little ]
Duty? Hah. I have no duty but that of perfection as a prosecutor. I have no time to get wrapped up in world protection in this manner. Who are these people to impose upon me, or you for that matter?

[Snarky? Yes. Very snarky.]
Again, I don't know. But whoever they are, they are probably very powerful.
