Comments

[ceiling_cat]

Phones gave me the part about people ending up here from different worlds... but no one's had an explanation for why.

[Hanekoma pauses in turn, and ducks his head, scratching the back of his neck. Well... damn. He hates to ask, but he hates being behind the curve even more.]

I take it things worked out all right.

[leggierissimo]

Unfortunately, that's the part that I can't figure out, either. I thought I might look into it.

[That question, though... Joshua glances back, slightly raising an eyebrow before glancing up at the tops of the nearby buildings.]

You could say that.

[ceiling_cat]

That's good enough. [He shrugs and narrows his eyes thoughtfully at Joshua. An apparent difference in time between their appearances... that's bizarre, and being in another world doesn't make it any less so. He's beginning to wonder if his memory was tampered with to convince him he came here of his own will.

If he didn't mind the risk of discovery, he could flip himself back up the Frequencies and try a quick escape. But could he bring Joshua with him when the Composer's been reduced to a Reaper in someone else's game? That's a more complicated question.

Things having worked out well enough back home means that he should have a little time to spend adjusting the odds before he tries anything risky.]

Where'd ya pick up the new accessories?

[leggierissimo]

[Believe him, it's new to him, too. Even with Neku, they had been pulled from the same point in time. As far as Joshua knew, they all had. But now, knowing that whatever force was behind this not only had the power to delve into different worlds, but different points in time as well...

... and that comment is getting an indignant look. Don't even start.]

I experienced a sudden and random fit of nostalgia.

[ceiling_cat]

Simmer down, Josh, I wasn't trying to be funny. [He crosses his arms with a slight frown, glancing down the street at the familiar mix of running Players and oblivious RG denizens.]

More wonderin' just how whoever's runnin' the joint dragged you in and did that.

[leggierissimo]

[Mhm. Sure. Still not stopping him from being irritated simply by the subject being brought up, sorry.]

I'd like to know the same thing. [A pause.] Something around here smells fishy.
