This is very interesting. Rico, are you enjoying this too? I was going to go out and look for a job today, but now I'm a little concerned that I might float away in the open air.

[Whee~ bouncing.] Yes! Do you think we'd really float away?

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

We might. I think it would be a good idea to weigh ourselves down with something heavy, just to be safe.

[collareddog.livejournal.com]

Probably. What would happen if someone did?

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

That's a good question. Maybe they would just keep floating until they reached space...

[collareddog.livejournal.com]

Do you think this will last long? It might be difficult if we have to keep ourselves weighed down all the time.

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

Recently most of these things only seem to last a day, so by tomorrow everything should be normal.

[collareddog.livejournal.com]

That's good. It's fun, but I don't think I'd want to have to walk like this forever. Did they used to last longer?

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

Not long after I arrived in the castle, the entire world changed and remained that way for a week.

[collareddog.livejournal.com]

Was it fun?

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

... No. It wasn't fun at all. There were battles, and people lost their lives.

[collareddog.livejournal.com]

Even when we do missions, they don't usually last a whole week...

A lot of people must have died in that amount of time.

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

Yes, they did. Some died in the heat of battle, while others were killed in more brutal ways.

[collareddog.livejournal.com]

How were they killed?

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

They were used as sacrifices. Their bodies were torn apart.

[collareddog.livejournal.com]

...sacrifices?

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

I don't really understand why myself, but some of the people thought... that killing these people was the right thing to do. It wasn't their fault, though. It was... something controlling them.

That is a good idea, Triela. Who knows how far you'd get before gravity decided to put itself to rights?

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

That would be terrifying. I hope that no one gets hurt.

[lifeandliesof.livejournal.com]

I have been keeping an eye on the skies for creatures that do not look like birds.

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

[an amused noise] Let's hope there are no Icaruses.

[lifeandliesof.livejournal.com]

That would be a bit of a disaster.
