[There's some shuffling in the audio and fabric russling and then metal jingling together] Oi, Hikaru.

Nn? ....S-shi-shizuka-san.

Good morning. It seems we're cursed today. [cue another sound of metal jingling]

[muttered] I guess it could be worse... So this isn't so bad.



[ooc; handcuffed to Doumeki, woke up in the shounen apartment :>]

She won't be able to take a break until midnight at least. Those handcuffs are a "curse". The rulers of this place do stuff like that all the time, just to screw with us.

Fortunately, Doumeki shouldn't slow her down.

You're telling me she didn't do this handcuff affair because... um... you know... but that the creepers who kidnapped us FORCED HER!?

...I'M KILLING THEM! HOW DARE THEY DO THAT TO HER!? I'm drowning them! Freezing them from the toes up until they learn not to mess with my friends!!

That's not exactly the aspect of the old Umi that I wanted back immediately, but there it is. Maybe your memories are coming back after all.

[mypace-musume.livejournal.com]

Anyway, yeah, as Hikaru was telling you over and over, the two of them aren't "like that". But at least they're friends. Sometimes the handcuff curse puts you with a stranger... or with your enemy.

BUT- BUT- THEY HANDCUFFED HER TO A GUY!! That's...! So many levels of WRONG it's not even gross anymore: it's CLINICALLY PERVERTED!

No wonder they make even calm little ME babble ridiculous nonsense!

[mypace-musume.livejournal.com]

I dunno, I'd be more concerned if it was someone other than Doumeki. It'll be fine.

I guess I'm sort of desensitized to this sort of thing by now.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

How long have you been stuck in this place anyway?

[mypace-musume.livejournal.com]

Seven months now. Most people aren't here that long, I think.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

...that's long enough to grow a trauma.

Let me guess: your parents can't pay the ransom.

[mypace-musume.livejournal.com]

There is no ransom, Umi. Time works differently here. I was taken out of my timeline to come to the City, and when I go back, I'll go back to the same moment I left. Nobody will know I was gone.

I've actually gone home and come back to the City once. That's pretty common. Like a vacation.

. . .

Neil talked about that time travel thing too. And then there's this strange feeling I keep getting around some people. As if I knew them from before...

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

Oh BOY.

Either I'm going nuts from the trauma or... I'm starting to believe this is for real.

[mypace-musume.livejournal.com]

It happens to the best of us.

Who's Neil?
