Day 10 - [Action] | [Fourth Wall]

[Kouki notice that there's...a lot more people than he remembers around Luceti, as he glance around the plaza from near the stores.]

...Is it me or is there a lot more people around?

(ooc: He won't recognise anyone or know anything from the smtdressingroom , carriero or errocity . Otherwise, HAVE AT HIM.)

You guys are lucky that way. The asylum doesn't even have a calendar. It's really almost boring most of the time, except when things happen. Nobody really knows what's going on. They might be experiments, reality TV... all we have to go on are theories.

[de_bel_survivor]

The Malnosso sometimes contact us, which is how the long time residents know about them.

Not knowing...you have it worse that way. Between the experiments, we just went on with life here, unless people got kidnapped or sent home.

[Beside the wings, Kouki seems to be doing much better here in Luceti.]

[future-hatsune.livejournal.com]

They never give us any warning at all when things happen -- there might be an explanation moments before, but more often it's not. I think that might be changing, though; we did actually get a brief warning for the tetris game.

...I guess you're right. There's hardly anything to do but talk to each other, really - a gym and pool that's almost empty, a cafeteria, a library full of nonsense books, a garden... that's pretty much it.



I didn't get your name wrong, did I? You still go by Wakahisa Kouki?

[de_bel_survivor]

We never get any warnings before an experiment started, but I know they happen at least once a month and for the Malnosso to gather data from us.

We don't have a pool, but there's the library, stores, restaurant, a bar, school...though most of them are started by a resident.

[Beside homesickness, he doesn't have to worry about food or death situations. And he knows that time back in his world stopped, which is a big load off his shoulders.]

Nope, you didn't. That's still my name.

[future-hatsune.livejournal.com]

Hmmmm. Maybe if we start writing down the times that things happen I'll start seeing a pattern. That's a good idea.

...we can't even go outside. There's only one building for us. Three floors. Hardly any material for anything.



Oh, good. At least that's the same. Did that stuff about a lockdown still happen to you?

[de_bel_survivor]

Maybe you can figure something out.

Whoa...stuck in one building. [One place, being bored except when something happened. It's like Luceti, but less stuff and more condensed.]

Yes, the lockdown happened. How did you know about it? [Was it on the news back home?]

[future-hatsune.livejournal.com]

Fingers crossed.

...yeah. Until the tetris game started, we were all busy being excited because they actually changed the menu in the cafeteria.

The other you told me about it, of course. It hadn't happened in my world, though.

[de_bel_survivor]

...Changed the menu. [Wow. Just. Wow.]

Hm...I guess I...he thought you're from the same world and know about it at first.

[future-hatsune.livejournal.com]

Okay, look, we had been starved for like weeks before that, okay? There was this huge battle with a bunch of monsters and the cafeteria was gone then, and then after that we were blind for a couple days and then after that we were shrunk to like this high -- So yeah, it was exciting, okay?

Yeah. Or, well, I told him I was a robot so that made us even.

[de_bel_survivor]

When you put it like that...no wonder you get excited.

...You're a robot?

[future-hatsune.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I know. Well, he figured it out, and I didn't want to just lie to him. It was more obvious to him without as many distractions around. So that's why he told me about the lockdown.

[de_bel_survivor]

I see. [Without the convenience of an explanation or a guide, he can kind of see how it happens.] It must be pretty weird to find out. You trust him a lot, right?

[future-hatsune.livejournal.com]

Well, I had just met him at the time. But back home I'm always around people who've heard of me before, so it's almost really weird for me, everyone not knowing. It's kind of convenient, though, because some people there aren't used to that kind of thing, so I can get away with not telling them. Hmmm. I'm not sure how clear I was about that part with them...

[de_bel_survivor]

[A similiar feeling. He can get away without mentioning the lockdown here.]

Clear about what, Hatsune?

[future-hatsune.livejournal.com]

Oh, back home I'm kind of famous. Had more than a couple albums released and all. It's odd, nobody knows me there. It's nice, I guess.

[de_bel_survivor]

[Smiles a bit.] It must be.

It's cold out here, want to go inside?

Not sketchy at all

[future-hatsune.livejournal.com]

Um, sure. ...I kind of miss having different kinds of weather. There's only ever any in the garden.

So do you have a house around here, then?

[de_bel_survivor]

I'm staying at one of the apartment buildings here. It's to the southwest of the plaza here.

[future-hatsune.livejournal.com]

I see. So, do you want to go there? Or is there some arcade or somewhere around here? A coffee shop?

[de_bel_survivor]

There's the bakery, restaurant, cafe, library...

I was going to walk around when I notice everyone.

[future-hatsune.livejournal.com]

A bakery sounds nice. It's been ages since I've had anything sweet.

[de_bel_survivor]

Alright. Let's walk over there...and stay with me, since you don't know the area.

[future-hatsune.livejournal.com]

Okay.

...but I don't have any money. Maybe they'll have free samples or something?

[de_bel_survivor]

Oh, right. I forgot to mention, but everything's here is free.

[future-hatsune.livejournal.com]

Really? That's awesome! So, which way?
