Action - 004 [4th Wall - Open to all]

[moezama]

[...there seems to be a lot of people showing up today here in Luceti. Technically New Feathers were still showing up but...today there just seems to be more of them coming in than usual.

Well, he'll try not to get into people's way as he tries to head for the library. There, he'll just hide out in his usual spot, in a corner of the library and hide behind his books. He's been here so many times and still couldn't locate what he was looking for.

You can meet him anywhere along his path to the library, or at the library.]

[moezama]

Wha- [Holy shit- where did you come from!? Kazuma jumps slightly in his seat, clutching his chest for a moment, before looking up to Caelica]

C-Caelica? When did--when did you get here? [Must. stop books. from falling out of his hands.]

[suckswithmaps]

[Oh Kazuma... Caelica can't help but laugh a little when he jumps, though she does feel bad.]

Ahh sorry about that! I got here earlier this morning, I think.. [Eying those books now.] Do you need help with those?

[moezama]

Ah, no I-- [shoves them back on the table] I got it...you're the first person I've seen here from the magic guild for...months.

[suckswithmaps]

[She just blinks for a bit, tilting her head.]

..Eh? For months? Does that mean you know what this place is?

[moezama]

Yes...This place is called Luceti. I haven't been home for a while. Has the Guild changed much since I left?

[suckswithmaps]

Luceti, huh? [Hmm... Never heard of it!]

I actually haven't been at the Guild myself in a while. I was searching for my father before I came here.

[moezama]

You did...? [Didn't Nine have something against their father? How did she manage to slip away from Nine...?]

Are you sure that was a good idea? Leaving like that...?

[suckswithmaps]

[Wow Kazuma you are making no sense whatsoever to Caelica! Did you hit your head?

She nods.] Well, yes! It is really important to me, after all. [...] But... You're the one who convinced me to do that, Kazuma. Don't you remember?

[moezama]

[...] I did? [Caelica is making no sense either. He presses a hand on one side of his head. Memory is the last thing he wanted to think about but...he really couldn't remember this.]

I don't remember telling you to go find him...when was this?

[suckswithmaps]

Yep. [She nods, tilting her head and staring at Kazuma. That's really strange... Hmm.]

You don't...? In that case, what's the last thing you remember?

[moezama]

[Urk, Memory pop quiz]

Well...it had been several days since I was attacked by...that strange creature. I think I was out for three days and then- [...and then Terumi] I was last at the library to catch up on my studies.

[suckswithmaps]

[It's okay; you know more than I do pffft..]

E-eh?! You were attacked... by a strange creature? What do you mean? [...wait... that sounds vaguely familiar..]

[moezama]

I can't- [He gets minor flashes from the event] Something...something like a cat? Either way it was you, Nine and Trinity who found me before that thing could finish me...

[suckswithmaps]

Something like a cat...? [...first person who comes to mind.] You don't mean Mitsuyoshi, do you? [He wouldn't attack someone like Kazuma!]

[moezama]

[Whut] Who's...Mitsuyoshi?

[suckswithmaps]

Ohhh, that's right... I don't think you ever met him. Mitsuyoshi is kind of like a cat too. It couldn't have been him though, since he would never do that!

[moezama]

[...there are more of them? 8|;;;;;;] W-Well, anyway...it seems like we remember different things. You must be more further along than me, because none of that stuff you said I did happened. [...] I don't think anyway...

[suckswithmaps]

[And now she's the one who's confused..!] Further along...? In time, you mean? How is that possible..?

[moezama]

I think so. This world, it has a way of pulling people from the same place from different times. [...]

I've met others here who are over a hundred years in the future.

[suckswithmaps]

Woah, really? A hundred years into the future...?!

[...Does that make us old, Kazuma...]

[moezama]

[More like dead...Though Kazuma kinda cheated that. Only kinda.]

Besides myself, everyone here from our world is from the future. You're the first from around the same time as me. Sort of. [..A smile] It's kind of nice, to know the world is still ok after all that time. I heard the Black Beast was already killed by that point.

[suckswithmaps]

[Cheater!]

Oooh I see... It must have been really strange when you met them then-- [waaaait. Caelica's not from that far along, so...] Ahhh the Black Beast was really killed?

[moezama]

[It was meant to be. He nods]

Probably not too far in our own future from the sound of it. I don't know the whole details, but the ones responsible for it's death are known as the Six Heroes in their time.

[suckswithmaps]

[Huh. That's great to hear! It would be awful if the Black Beast was still there...]

The Six Heroes, huh...? I wonder who they are.

[moezama]

I never got to ask about that. [...Just now did he notice Caelica was lacking the trademark Luceti wings]

You don't have them either...
