What the...

This isn't Cephiro or Tokyo. Did Caldina do something while I was asleep? I'll bet she did. Just wait until I get back there.

Could someone tell me where this is? Or how to get back to Tokyo or Cephiro? I feel like I've been here before.



[ooc; It was encouraged. D: Older Hikaru is now in her mid-twenties, with Shayla Shayla as a PB. She's still in the apartment, Wolfwood, just confused. Give her some time, and she'll probably "remember" being here when she was younger.]

Someone else who knows me? Jeez, maybe Umi was right about my memory. I'm Hikaru, but I guess I forgot your name too.


[ooc; older!Hikaru says ...wut. o_o]

Doumeki Shizuka. We used to train together when we were both in the City.

What?

[redstrength.livejournal.com]

...I think I'd remember a place like this.

Still, it's nice to talk to you, Shizuka.

[monsterepellant.livejournal.com]

That's alright--Kurosaki's forgotten as well. It happens.

You as well, Hikaru.

...So you said this place is called the City? That's... kinda lame.

[a slight snort--that's a laugh there] I won't deny that one.

If I get pulled to an alternate world, it could at least try to be creative.

They make up for it with the curses, if I remember correctly. I haven't been here in a while, myself.

Curses? I get the feeling they mean something different here. What are they?

I believe they're random events that cause people to change how they are and how they function, at times. I seem to remember a couple times when I was turned into a child or an animal.

...That sounds pretty familiar, now that I'm thinking about it.

You said we trained together. ...It was a guy in black, right?

I knew I'd remember being here.

Wow, it really has been a while, then.

For me as well.

Good to see you, again.

[redstrength.livejournal.com]

You too. How've you been?

Not bad. Kimihiro and I are working for Yuuko-san, now.

[redstrength.livejournal.com]

Kimihiro?

Ah--Watanuki.

Voice Reply

[redstrength.livejournal.com]

Sorry, I don't think I ever met him before. A friend of yours from home?

Voice Reply

[monsterepellant.livejournal.com]

Yeah. We work together, now.

Voice Reply

[redstrength.livejournal.com]

Oh. That's good that you're getting to work with your friends at least.

Voice Reply

[monsterepellant.livejournal.com]

You're talking to him right now, actually.

What have you been up to?

Voice Reply

[redstrength.livejournal.com]

...Am I? You mean the maid?

Studying, and keeping up with Cephiro. I got into a university but going back and forth to Cephiro to make sure things stay safe is starting to wear me out. But I'll take the exhaustion over studying any day.

[a small chuckle] Yes, him.

Getting sufficient sleep would help that. Though admittedly, I'm not one to talk.
