I know it's not exactly a newcomer's place to come in here and lecture you guys, but when it gets to the point where people are transmitting videos of themselves all bandaged and babbling in foreign languages... well, I thought I'd add my voice to the flood here.

In a situation like this, you'd have to be crazy to waste your time fighting your fellow prisoner guinea pigs. Not that I don't appreciate the ones who are crazy slapping 'restrain me' signs on their backs, but can we get a little perspective?

And quit shooting people. That'd be great. Thanks.

Can anyone point me in the direction of Yorda-san? I'm looking for some gardening tips.

Well, uhm...

When I arrived, there was a satellite that exploded. It killed a lot of people and destroyed a lot of buildings.

That was over two months ago, though. Things have gotten better since then

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Exploding satellites. Shit. - uh! Sorry, I didn't mean to use that kind of language around you, miss - what's your name, anyway? I'm Tsuzuki.

[dustedsunlight.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's okay, really. You don't need to be so formal with me.

I'm Namine. It's nice to meet you, Tsuzuki.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Maybe I'm a little old-fashioned. It still seems wrong!

Nice to meet you too, Namine. So you've been here... what, two or three months now? My condolences.

[dustedsunlight.livejournal.com]

A lot of people around here don't think much about it. I'm not offended, anyway.

Uhm... about two and a half months, now. This place isn't so bad, though.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

I've had worse vacations. And it's quite the coincidence - a friend of mine from home was here before I arrived.

[dustedsunlight.livejournal.com]

Oh, really? Who is it?

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Watari - do you know him?

[dustedsunlight.livejournal.com]

Mm, I've met him before!

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Sounds about right. He's been that way as long as I've known him.

[dustedsunlight.livejournal.com]

I figured as much. There are a lot of people in Discedo that are a little... strange, I guess.

But it just makes things more interesting.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

That it does! --so where are you from, Namine?

[dustedsunlight.livejournal.com]

Well... I'm from a group of worlds, sort of.

There's a lot of them were I come from, and people can go between them.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Really? With spaceships, or what? Wow, it sounds like you must be from way in the future.

[dustedsunlight.livejournal.com]

Spaceships...? I don't know what that is.

We... well, I guess for other people, it's kind of like magic.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Oh, that kind of different world! - I get it. I... well, it's kind of the same where I'm from.

[dustedsunlight.livejournal.com]

There's a lot of different worlds where you come from, too?

What're they like?

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Well, there's Earth - I only really know what Japan is like there. Let's see - tall buildings, lots of people, the occasional really awesome restaurant... It's kind of weird trying to describe the place where you live, isn't it?

I spend most of my time in Meifu - it's a lot like Earth, but quieter, and the cherry trees never stop blooming. Then there's the Illusionary World, which is still mostly wild, and ruled by the Blue Dragon. I haven't been there in way too long, really. I probably should pay my friends there a visit when I get out of Discedo.

[dustedsunlight.livejournal.com]

I've heard a lot about Earth. I think a lot of people here are from that world. I've never heard of the second one, but it sounds really beautiful.

Where I come from... there are a lot of different worlds, but I've only ever seen three. They were Twilight Town, Castle Oblivion, and The World That Never Was.

But I didn't get to see much of any of them. I was always stuck inside.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Meifu isn't bad... but it gets old after a decade or so.

Those sound like interesting places. Stuck inside, huh? That's a shame. Have you had a chance to get out a little here? In the safer places, I guess?

[dustedsunlight.livejournal.com]

A decade...? How long have you been there?

Mhmm. DiZ and Xemnas didn't want me escaping. But I've gotten to see a little more here, with Prydain's help.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

A long time.

...You know, I'm really glad to hear that.

[dustedsunlight.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow... I don't know how long I've been alive.

O-Oh, well, thank you... it's nice to see a little more, I guess. But people don't need to be concerned over me.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

You look... what, fifteen or so?

And I'm glad that there are a few good things about this place. I'm making a list!

[dustedsunlight.livejournal.com]

Well... I'm not... normal, by a lot of people's thoughts.

There are! A lot of the people are nice and helpful, and most of us are trying to make things better.

It's just... hard.
