Homura: I assume that is where you are from?


Sayaka: (out loud) Oh...maybe take a break from pool planning?

(M) <You could have just tapped on your head or something! Thought you were having an aneurysm. Anyway, what did you want to do this for?>

-Oh, so Muramasa's just tired...?-

"Y-Yeah... It might be a good idea to take a break if you're getting tired..."

-Naturally he is completely and utterly clueless to the telepathic conversation between Sayaka and Muramasa.-

...Ugh, I guess I should take a break. I mean, it's just planning, but even that can be stressful, right?

<We need a way to break it to Aich gently. His, ah, current state of being.>

(she's looking away from Sayaka and towards Aichi now, trying to mask her former obviousness in trying to initiate telepathy)

Homura: Is that common in your world? Given what you've said about the scarcity of clean water...

Pool

Sayaka: (Aloud) What's the saying? "An apple a day keeps the doctor away," right?

(M) <I know, but...how? He thought this towel was slippery when his hands kept going through it over and over.> (said towel, its job finished, is tossed onto a closer pool chair)

"Yeah, that's the saying..."

-Hmm... Apples are healthy, but what made them decide on apples specifically for the saying?-

-Now Aichi's kind of curious...-

-...Wait, stay focused.-

"B-But still, I think it'd be a good idea to take a break at least. You can work more on it later."

Homura: ...What was your world like before?


Sayaka: (makes a face at Mura's icky addition) Ew...

(A) Yeah, I agree - take a break if it's getting to you like that.

(M) <What? We just used our magic powers to beat the crap out of them until they disappeared.> (beat, realization) <We are not doing that to him - he isn't hurting anyone! Intentionally!>

<...That's not what I meant. Wraiths are just bound to this world by grudges, aren't they? I mean, sure, you can tear them apart with enough magical energy, but can't you also undo those grudges by helping 'em pass on?>

(right... different universes, different definitions)

(out loud) Mm... alright. Break it is.

Sayaka: <Not our Wraiths - they didn't respond to reason. And Witches...well, Homura thinks that's generally suicide and Kyubey had a reason not to help there.> (glance back at Ghost Aichi) <...I guess it's worth a shot, but where do we even start? He doesn't even know he's dead.>


Homura: Not peaceful or happy?

-He's relieved to see that Muramasa is taking their advice and taking a break.-

"Ehehe... I understand wanting to work really hard... I was trying to win the Asia Circuit before I got here..."

-...Actually, he's probably something of a hypocrite telling Muramasa to take a break when he refused to for the most part (He had to save the Royal Paladins and figure out that Gold Paladin deck he was suddenly given in place of them...).-

"...W-Wait, the Asia Circuit! I have to get back home!"

-Sounds like this 'Asia Circuit' was a pretty important thing to him if you go by how worried he sounds...-

-...Maybe your first clue? It's not much, but...-

<Man, if I knew, I wouldn't ask. And knowing the folk around here, someone's gonna bluntly point it out if we don't hurry.>

(out loud) ...Eh? You're a racer?

-Huh? A racer...?-

-...Oh, the word 'circuit' must have thrown Muramasa off...-

"N-No... It's a Vanguard tournament that's taking place all around Asia!"

-Huh? Sayaka's trying to grab his arm?-

"H-Huh? W-What's wrong?"

-He... seems to think you've actually grabbed his arm. In reality your hand is going through it.-

-...Some kind of ghost censorship???-

...Oh, right. That game, huh? I've heard about it from the other Aich, I think.

<Sayaka what the flying fire truck are you doing.>

#1314620: May 21st 2018 at 11:32:52 AM

Sayaka: (isn't totally thrown off by this thanks to the towel thing) Um, well... ("lets go" of Aichi's arm) ...thing is, this place is kinda...hard to leave. Especially if you didn't come here on purpose.

(M) <Didn't mean to do that!> (Did...she just blush there for a split second?)

-Oh, so one of the others plays Vanguard too... That's great!-

"He told you about it then! I'm really glad he plays it too... I can't imagine a me that doesn't play it..."

-Aichi's expression gets even more worried when Sayaka says what she says.-

"I-I have to win the Asia Circuit... I-It's my last chance to... I-If I don't win it in Japan then..."

-...He'll never find out what happened to them...-

"A-Are you sure there's no way to get back quicker?"

-It does seem like whatever is going on at that circuit it's very important.-

Homura: Because it can't be changed.


Sayaka: (A) Well, I mean...this place kinda has a mind of its own. It likes to pull random people from their homes and stick 'em here for a while. Sometimes they get lucky and go back after a few days or figure out a way to come and go from here whenever they want, but that can take weeks or months.

(M) <Shut up, it ain't like that!>

(Aichi, why is Sayaka suddenly kinda pouty and not looking at Muramasa?)

<Aww, you're adorable~>

(Mura grins, before looking back up at Aichi)

I never got the basic jist, though. Is it basically some sort of card fight?
