[ The tapping of cell phone buttons can be heard, before it comes to a sudden stop.]

Oh my.

...

Takumi?

[Dictated Forever;]

[eightpacts.livejournal.com]

Hmm? What?

[Same!]

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

Hello??

[eightpacts.livejournal.com]

Jeez. Aren't you loud for a girl?
You new or something?

[eightpacts.livejournal.com]

Ah...I see. Sorry 'bout that then.
The name's Emil.

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

[ So, so confused.]

I'm Reira....

Where is your voice coming from, exactly??

[eightpacts.livejournal.com]

Reira? There's a journal in your room somewhere. I'm speaking through that.

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

A journal...

This isn't Japan, is it.

[ She stumbles across it and flings it open.]

[eightpacts.livejournal.com]

Heh. Don't know what 'Japan' is, but it sure isn't.

And sorry about shouting at you earlier. A few people have been bugging me since I first dropped in this place two days ago.

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

How do you not know what Japan is?! It's where I live!

And, it's fine.

[ Apology accepted. Maybe!]

[eightpacts.livejournal.com]

[a chuckle] Really now? I'm from a world called Aselia, but I doubt you know where that is either.
But huh. What's Japan?

[Ha, ha. Knowing this guy, he probably doesn't care if you accept his apology or not. His other personality on the other hand...]

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

I don't really know what that is, but it sounds like it's from a video game.

Japan is a country. You know... a country?

[eightpacts.livejournal.com]

Video...? Game...? What the hell's a video game?

Hmm...okay. What's so special about Japan?

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

Well its where my band is, of course!

... You do know what a band is, right?

[ Sheez... someone's a little special.]

[eightpacts.livejournal.com]

Band? What do you do in your band?

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

We play music! I don't even KNOW what kind of planet you're on!

[eightpacts.livejournal.com]

I see. Are you guys any good?

And I already told you. I'm from Aselia.

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

We're number one in all of Japan!

That place must be very boring.

[eightpacts.livejournal.com]

Popular, eh? What kind of music does your band play anyway?

Heh...I guess it would depend on who you're talking to.

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

...yeah, number one only if you aren't counting Blast.

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

[ WUT]

... Nana??

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

The one and only.

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

What are you doing here?

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

Same as you.

Stuck. No way out.

Kind of a bitch, don't you think?

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

... You mean there is no way out.

Oh... that's fun.

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

Yeah. [play it cool, Nana. play it cool...]

And no one else is here that knows us, so sorry, you don't have Takumi-- or Ren-- to latch onto.

[...well, she tried. here's the sound of a lighter's click.]

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

[ She's surprised. She doesn't remember Nana ever really taking that tone with her before. They were competitors, sure but...]

Right. Takumi...

I was just with him.

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

[it was offhandedly said, but really, there had been so much scathing truth behind the simply spoken statement. had she brought Reira to realize just how she had perceived her?]

Yeah?

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

[ Well this is a pleasant conversation.]

Yeah.

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

[hello, someone is blowing smoke toward the journal, flicking the ashes of the cigarette. some might have touched upon the pages

a long pause as she mulls it over;]

Well, whatever. You're not the first person I'd have on my list to keep me company, but [she pauses to take a drag] welcome to the magic castle.

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

[ Wow, what a left-handed compliment.]

Thank you.

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

[or was it?

she disregards the sentiments, thinking her words were nothing to shake a stick at. she blows another puff of smoke, running a hand through her hair]

... and you're not phased by the magic castle bit?

[canyoufeelitnow.livejournal.com]

[Oh right, that.]

Magic? That's a bit silly.

[myoneaffliction.livejournal.com]

[a sigh; hey, it wasn't her responsibility to get the mechanizations of this castle through her skull...]

Think what you will.

[eightpacts.livejournal.com]

[chuckles] I'm guessing you know her.

Blast is another band from Japan?
