seventh song ♫ video/text;

[derpiest]

[This is the face of a young boy who both does not look happy, and has not been around in a while. But Rion has a question for Asgard that he can't answer himself.

He types slowly into the device; it's taking him a lot longer than normal, because he wants to figure out what he wants to say, how he wants to say it.]

If you went home right now... but remembered everything that you learned from Asgard. All the people you met, all the things you talked about - what do you think you'd do differently when you got home?

I'd try to convince my friends to fight it, to find a way out. I'd question the person who knew about what we had to do until he was forced to tell us what was really going on. I'd value my life more highly.

... and I'd miss someone terribly.

... I know you'd do something good with it. I don't -- I don't know what all happened at home, but I know you deserve another chance to live. I think everyone here does.

I wish we could remember, though... I wish we didn't have to forget.

[Not that this has been on his mind or anything recently.]

[whatagoodgirl]

I think it'd be harder, if we do find a way for me to go home, to remember. Because I'd have to go back to having no friends at home and being treated the way I was before, and I'd remember how warm and welcoming everyone was here. It wouldn't be like before, where I couldn't miss something I'd never had.

... you mean the people coming back, though, don't you?

[derpiest]

... I'd have to go back to that, too, but I think I'd be able to deal with it knowing there were good people out there somewhere. And I mean both.

[He's just as scared of going back and forgetting everything - but yes, he's been thinking about people who have been returning. Two people in particular.]

[whatagoodgirl]

The memories would really be enough for you, you think? I can barely imagine life back home now, other than being with my mom. I don't think I could stand it again.

[childsoldier]

Nothing. I'd go on the same as I had been.

[derpiest]

Nothing has changed things for you at all?

Video

[childsoldier]

I don't see why it should. Even though I've only been here a little while, but it's the same as being at home, for the most part.

text;

[derpiest]

... this place is like home?

[Rion can't imagine that. His home is so much more -- boring.]

Video

[childsoldier]

Not the place itself, but the people are pretty much the same here as they are at home. At least with how they act and all.

[wristbands]

[have a frowny bff, bro.]

i dunno... :(
i tried talking about this w/ yukari-chan a while ago & we couldn't really come up with any answers

text;

[derpiest]

Do you know anything you're not... supposed to know, because of being here?

[Since like -- he knew that Minako was going to die even though Minako didn't know that.]

text;

[wristbands]

um nothing about my friends that i knew before coming here
but yukari-chan, minako-san, and minato-san all came from my world's past
& i... found out what happens to them
does that count??

text;

[derpiest]

Kinda. I mean more like -- if you learned that at home, and then they found that out from you. One of those paradox thingies.

text/private

[faints]

I'd keep a promise I made to someone important. And listen a whole lot more.

text;

[derpiest]

... what kind of promise?

text;

[faints]

um. I promised I'd take a message to someone

text;

[derpiest]

It must be an important message. Is it someone from here, or someone at home you'd need to talk to...?

text

[pastahair]

That is a good question, but I am not entirely sure what I would do if that were to happen.

text;

[derpiest]

Why don't you know? Did you learn something you weren't... supposed to?

text;

[pastahair]

Unfortunately, I think that is my case.

To make a long story short, it seems that I cause a lot of trouble to others. Of course, I never intended to do such a thing.

text/video

[ironclad]

I would try and be more involved in social matters.

[ She starts out with text, but changes her mind and switches to video. Hiding from view rather nullifies the point of that posting. ]

Yes, that is what I'd do.

text/video;

[derpiest]

[Rion would disagree, but the device is still on for him with text; he's just not... saying anything. His expressions/etc are pretty visible.]

Why weren't you before?

video;

[ironclad]

I was... [ She tries to work out how to put this. It would be easier to type it out, but she's made her choice. Still, she can't hesitate too much. ] ...Not scared, exactly...but maybe anxious. Of what others would think of me.

Re: video;

[derpiest]

... I know how that is.

[He frowns. Not that that's the reason he's typing, but.] That other people might think poorly of you.]
