I never expected to be back in this place. Things around here sure have changed. Not that I expected it to stay the same, all things considered, but... I definitely remember it being livelier. I guess a lot of people didn't make it and those monsters are still out there. It feels like the town itself is smaller, too, but that could just be my memory slipping.

I don't know how I left or how I came back. It feels like a dream I can't wake up from. From what I'm reading, it sounds like a lot of people have gone missing lately. Hopefully they just went back home.

If you're reading this, how long have you been here? How long has it been in general?

This is Kiryu Kazuma, by the way. If anyone's still around who remembers me. It's been a while.


((ooc: Kiryu's back from a canon update in which he's aged eleven (!!) years, and he has no idea that in terms of in-game time, he's only been gone for about 20 days. His memories of this place are fuzzy at best, though, as a result. I also haven't really been able to look at the comms much during my hiatus, so anything you fill him in on helps me, too!

Also, in case this turns into action tagging: Other than some lines around his eyes that definitely weren't there before, he's barely aged. Maybe he's a little bit broader now, but that's really it. dem titties))

Nobody's sure why so many people are going missing so suddenly, or what happened to them or where they went. It's pretty scary how fast it's happening!

But welcome back! I've been here around four months now.


[Did you ever actually manage to meet the rug before this, Kiryu?]

Sometimes people have died and not come back? But it was always isolated before this.

[Like his buddy Naruto, for example. :< Sorry, Kiryu, if he'd known you before, then he'd be able to tell you that you didn't vanish too long ago.]

[personal profile] gimmesometassel 2018-04-26 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
They are. And some people found things about one of those not too long ago! How long have you been gone?

[He's still a little shaky on the concept of "video", TBH. But what the hell is your world like that you could easily imagine seeing mass graves there, Kiryu?]

[personal profile] gimmesometassel 2018-04-26 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
They found the moving pictures about the mass grave? And the ones showing the Sound Eaters killing people and the scientist man's notes? And there was a shop covered in red dust without a floor too.

[.....That sounds like a really scary city D8]

Maybe time did something weird for you? I have a friend who talks about things I don't know anything about a lot. And sometimes when I ask about them, he says not to worry about it because it hasn't happened yet!

[When you have an anachronistic wisecracking buddy prone to pop culture references and making the fourth wall his plaything..... you actually get pretty good at accepting timeline weirdness for exactly what it is, inexplicable weirdness. As long as you don't try too hard to understand it, then you won't get too bewildered by how little sense it all makes.]

Genie is a genie, so it was probably more than just fortune telling for him. Maybe it's like that here too? Maybe you went into the future for a whole decade and came back!

Welcome back. Sorry to say that it did used to be livelier. We aren't sure what happened but people just started disappearing over the last few days. It was like arrival day but in reverse.

However long you've been gone, it probably hasn't been that long for us here. The first of us only got here four months ago.

Our numbers have severely thinned out. I'm not sure why but so long as they aren't stuck somewhere on this world, it might be for the best.

I've been here nearly two months. Can't say how long it's been for you in general since you were last year but a year hasn't even gone by since the first arrivals. When we had the Hotdog and Dog mayors.

It's been about four months since I've been here. I don't think we met before. I'm Poe Dameron.

The things you have been reading about are true. People having been disappearing. We're not entirely sure why it's happening. It started off as a few but now it seems there's almost no one left. But, we're still here and we can still make this work.

It hasn't been that long here. I'm not familiar with how many months or days it takes on this planet for it to change over for a year to pass.
