( WELCOME BACK, TRAVELERS. )
There's nothing but the clatter of train tracks, and the odd feeling of almost floating.
When you wake, it's hard to tell exactly what it is that you're missing - only that you are. There are pieces that aren't quite right, even if you're not sure where those pieces would normally be. Pieces of what, exactly....? Well, if you had to put a word to it, it would be - yourself, probably. Or did you get something back recently? In addition, characters will find that they've been allowed to bring back souvenirs from this most recent trip - trinkets, nothing violent, but items that can fit in your character's pockets, whether that be sentimental or otherwise.
The place you've found yourself in is strange, certainly. It's probably worth exploring a bit. For those who have been here a while, they might notice some expansions. Though it just as easily seems that the only form of welcome or explanation that you have, comes from nothing more than a slab of marble.
It might've changed since the last time you saw it. Today it reads:
You might have changed since the last time you saw yourself too - perhaps with a new emblem on your clothes, or a portrait on your skin. In addition to that, it seems like Home Base is on the fritz again…?
It seems that suddenly and at random, characters will be able to suddenly see visions of memories that aren't their own flash before their eyes. Pieces of your lives or where you were before this will suddenly slam into other's heads, as clearly as if they experienced the event and the feelings themselves. You might have an inkling of where your memory went and what it was - but you'll need to talk it out with that person in order to recollect it in all its strength back to yourself. Don't you want to keep those precious parts of yourself? It's best if you don't fall more to pieces while you're here. (Memories that have been lost in fragments cannot be sent to others - that's more fun for the future!)
There's no need to fret that much though. You've already gone through the ordeal once, and you might be able to see results from it. Or maybe you'll get a glimpse of where you're going next. Even so, it's best that you don't get too comfortable, because there is still the unshakeable feeling:
There's still much more ahead of you.

(*´ω｀)o That wasn't so bad, was it?
Hey, you know how that old song goes?
Do you believe in magic? (☆▽☆) Do ya?
Hope you found what you were looking for!

YOUR WISH, MY COMMAND
...Right, sorry about that.
[ while he makes for the other end of the bath, shinobu will get a rather silly memory (that lasts up to 7:45). but it's airsoft so it might be a little realistic to anyone who isn't familiar with the sport. ]
no subject
This is terrible. He's terrible. ]
Itaru. Even if you have no intentions of fighting, please care more about your wellbeing.
no subject
Huh? Uh, yeah, I don't have any intention of fighting you at all. I'd straight-up lose.
[ he hasn't realized that shinobu's taken a peek at his pathetic memory, though. ]
no subject
While I can't refute that, I meant your sense of self-preservation is a little concerning for all the troubles we'll inevitably face.
[ ... ]
Perhaps learning how to breathe properly would enable you to run.
no subject
[ HOW CAN HE BREATHE NORMALLY AT A TIME LIKE THIS
but shinobu's right, his own physical weakness might hinder himself and everyone else in the long run. ugh, but he hates exercise... ]
Well, if that's all I need to do, then I'll take you up on that offer. [ it's just inhale and exhale, right? sounds simple enough. ] Wait for me outside, I gotta get changed first.
no subject
It's fine. He doesn't have to like exercise. That's not a requirement. ]
I won't make you do anything too strenuous.
[ It's going to be gentle in comparison to what she makes her successors do, but she does as asked and heads out to wait. ]
no subject
anyways he's here now, jogging in place, and his bangs tied up in that obnoxious bun. ]
So we're just going to meditate, right? Sit on the ground, close our eyes and breathe? I can do that.
no subject
She cares for him enough that she wants for him to survive, and for him to survive, he has to Get Good. At his question, she smiles brightly. ]
You're already moving. Let's keep moving, shall we?
[ Does she sound a little too cheerful? ]
Please try to tag me.
no subject
but ugh, more running? itaru doesn't feel winded right now, so he'll press onward and reach out to tap shinobu's shoulder-- ]
no subject
Her smile is bright. ]
Come, now. I'm cheering for you.
no subject
okay, let's try again. he sprints up to her, hand reaching out for her hand-- ]
no subject
She's still smiling, composed. ]
no subject
Just-- stay still...
[ and he tries one more time to get to her! but he's already panting a little... he really isn't made for this. ]
no subject
[ She presses her fingers together even as she dances away from him, fluttering away like the butterfly adoring her hair. ]
Or we can try raising it another way? If you'd like to try that.
[ That he's already getting winded... Terrible. ]
no subject
no subject
[ But he apparently wants to do it the harder way? ]
We'll have to see if the store has anything similar to what you need.
no subject
Oh, what a relief. I mean -- let's take a look, shall we?
[ he's going to lead the way and see if he can get away from shinobu while he's ahead ]
no subject
You can't outrun me, Itaru.
[ The truth is cheerful. ]
But you can try to outsmart me.
no subject
[ even so he's still picking up the pace, entering the shop and halting at one of the cash registers, wheezing for breath as he grips at the counter for dear life. ]
no subject
Do you think you can pull the wool over my eyes? Keep going!
[ No stopping! This is nothing? The Space is very little distance. Itaru, Get Good. ]
You need to find a ceramic gourd.
no subject
he breaks into a run again, grabbing a cart and heading for the ceramics aisle just a few feet away to grab one of those gourds she was talking about. ]
C-Ceramic gourd get!
no subject
Now, you'll have to breathe into it until you can break it.
[ Can he accomplish this next objective?
He said he wanted the other method. And here it is. Ta da! ]
It doesn't have to be right away. It can be weeks.
no subject
[ does shinobu not realize that he's just a normie... man, if only she's easier to trick like grimnir.
itaru inhales, pauses right there for what seems to be a minute -- then puts down the gourd and runs for it. he'd rather do five laps around the store, thank you very much!! ]
