[Things appear to have settled down from the previous days. No more gallivanting ex-GMs, no more strange displays of brainwashing or secret tunnels. Everything is, supposedly, back to order. And yet, judging by the mission, not all is right. Whatever it is, it's up to the Players to fix it. Why not look around and see what this severed thing is? The answer may not be too surprising, to those paying attention.]

[The Reaper watching this Player recognizes the bad mood that's practically bleeding off the other. That's cool, he can have fun with that.]

Something wrong?

[tamedhollow]

Oh, he also mentioned that "The Hydra" is last week's GM. The one who ran the mission yesterday. Apparently it's because she can make copies of herself.

.. That's a good point. It's like there's no Game in this city... I wonder... I have a theory. See, in my world, there's no Games like this. I told you that we handle souls a little differently. When I was dragged to another world before this, called Bete Noire, there was nothing like this there either. Maybe this Romania isn't on the same world as Shinjuku was. A world where the Game doesn't usually exist. ... Which means they're messing up the soul cycles of other worlds even MORE than originally thought! Dammit!!

[notsogrimreaper]

U-Um, okay... 'Cruelly.

Oh, your first time manning a Wall? It's pretty easy! I just ask the Players to get me something, or answer some quiz questions, and that's good enough. Just make sure to give them the wall rewards after!

[leggierissimo]

Hm. Fitting name. [He may as well fish out his phone and add as he goes.]

It's possible to be accidentally kicked into a parallel world, yes. But to have an entire UG shifted like that... [Tap tap tap. He only needs one hand for this.] One person is a small amount of Soul. And even with one person, it's difficult enough to return to your home world. Even for someone as powerful as the Composer, it would take an outside source capable of--

[And here he pauses mid-sentence, thumb stilling on the key it last pressed. No... surely not.]

[tamedhollow]

[that pause makes Ichigo give Josh a look]

What? Look, you can't hold out on information, here. What outside source has that kind of power?

[leggierissimo]

[Hm.]

Do you believe in Angels, Ichigo-kun?

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

I am surely not one to judge
But it is neither impossible, nor a trudge.

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

[So this too is one of the RGers who is being displaced by the Game's jumps. Zecora considers a moment, then decides to offer what comfort she can -- this time by guiding him with an impression of 'thirsty'. Perhaps she can get at least some comfort food in his path.]

[shy_kindness]

[Fluttershy hides behind her mane, hoofing at the ground nervously as she tries to calm herself down.]

[shy_kindness]

[Fluttershy's confidence i boosted with the zebra's approval. She's beginning to think she has what it takes to be a reaper after all.]

Thank you, Zecora. It's wonderful to hear you say it's okay. Um, finding the bunny might be fun for you...

[tamedhollow]

Nope. I mean. They... might exist. But I've never seen one. Or anything like one. ... Are you suggesting Angels did this?

[cruel_kindness]

See, 'Shy? It's not so bad. I'm sure eneryone'll like that thing with the bunny.

[leggierissimo]

Not many have. But, it's the next step above the level of Composer, which makes them a bit more powerful and thus capable of traveling between parallel worlds, passengers included. Though, if an Angel really is doing something like this... well, it's pretty obviously against the rules.

[tamedhollow]

I see... [there's a pause. Wait...] ... Again, you seem to know a whole lot about this stuff.

[leggierissimo]

I've been able to see the UG my entire life. [Without even missing a beat.] I know quite a bit about how it works.

[tamedhollow]

Even the Angels? A medium with that kind of power is pretty unique. Me and my sister Karin are about the only people I know with that sort of natural ability.

[notsogrimreaper]

A thing with a bunny? Did you have a plan for your wall?

[cruel_kindness]

Nope. 'Shy does. She's going to have the players find it and bring it to her.

[Fluttershy mentally blushes a little.]

[leggierissimo]

It isn't all that common in my world, either. Seeing Angels, though... [He closes his phone, content with his notes for now.] The planes of the world work in certain ways. The RG is at the bottom of the heap, with the UG above it and the Noise plane between them. Normally, people would only be able to perceive the plane that they're on and any planes beneath it. But, certain people have the ability to see at a somewhat higher frequency... which keys into my ability to see the UG from the RG. Angels reside on a plane much higher than the UG, so the only way to see one is if they lowered themselves to a plane that you could perceive. Much in the same way that we're invisible to those on the RG until we lower our own Frequencies.

[notsogrimreaper]

Oh! That's a cute idea! Kind of like hide-and-go-seek! Good work, Fluttershy!

[shy_kindness]

[Fluttercruel turns back into Fluttershy and hides behind her smile with a modest smile and modest blush.]

Oh, it's not really that much...

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

[Zecora has other Reaper friends, despite their differing roles. She's determined not to let the separation get in the way here either.]

Very well, I'll start to look --
And like Twilight, do this by the book!

[She'll start in the most nature-y looking places nearby.]

[wonderful_mods]

[So by this point, a few walls around the residencies should have been cleared. If one ventures through the right one, they'll find the girl from before on the front steps of a building.]

(How could I have been so stupid? It's useless. There's nothing I can do to mend this... I really screwed up.)

[And of course, she's covered with Noise.]

[leggierissimo]

Why does anyone wear what they do? It's all personal preference.

[Smiiiiile!]

[vexed_snake]

[Asakura's used to reactions like that, really. You scare a lot of people in his line of work.]

Just what are you supposed to be?
