Hello, everyone and good afternoon.

I have a question, but I'll be straight to the point.

Is it common for imPorts to leave for only a day?

Thank you.

( filtered to cr )

I heard that Sorey had informed others that I was missing. I'm sorry to anyone who had been worried, but I'm alright.

However, although it's been only a day since my disappearance, it's been a while for myself.

[ But... that's an understatement. He just doesn't want to alarm any friends here who can see and here him when they speak over video or face to face. ]

[To be thrill in having noticed this text over the network today by Mikleo would be an understatement. She was not just thrilled, but overjoyed and annoyed and just filled with all kinds of relieved feelings all around. Her heart didn't hurt as much as it did last night.]

Mikleo....

[Her voice may be sore from all the singing she has been doing all day. Right now, she didn't care about it. She was going to talk to him, no matter what.]

Welcome back. I'm so very happy to see this message!

( voice )

[drizzle]

[However....]

I feel even more annoyed right now! Why are you texting us? I want to hear your voice! I don't think my heart will truly calm down until I know you are absolutely okay!

[ He just hadn't wanted to alarm anyone! It's only been a day for them. How strange would it be to hear that he's grown so much older now? He still remembers how shocked Sorey had been when he saw him. ]

Wh--Didn't I just say why? It's been a long time for me. I can switch to voice easily too, can't I?

It's good to hear your voice though, Nike.

( voice )

[drizzle]

You can, and you should have too! I find it unacceptable not to hea-- [Wait. Mikleo can age? That may...change her tone a bit now.] How long....has it been?

[There will be a sigh as she reads the last part.]

I can't say the same due to lack of hearing one, but... [Her voice will turn very soft.] I really did miss you! I'm just relieved that you're back by Sorey's side again.

( voice )

[circulets]

[ It's then that Mikleo does change to the voice function, a smile in his voice. ] There. Is that better?

[ He sounds a little older - more aged. His tome is soft, but it's still Mikleo all the same. ] I missed you, too.

[ Though, as for what she was asking... ] It's been hundreds of years for me now.

[resipiscent]

How long are we talking, here?

[circulets]

Hundreds of years.

Hello, Riku.

[resipiscent]

[Hundreds... holy shit.]

Must feel weird, suddenly having all your time here shoved back into your brain.

[circulets]

That's an understatement.

Sorey told me that you were looking for me, too.

[resipiscent]

Yes. He asked Nike and I if we'd seen him.



How are you?

[glitterateur]

yeah it's normal!! it's happened to me and my brother like 4 times

people can leave for a day or a week or a month even and then come right back

text

[circulets]

Four times? That's fortunate that you two were able to reunite all of those times, as well.

A month? In those cases, do they normally come back with memories of this world?

Thank you. I'm Mikleo, by the way.

[glitterateur]

SERIOUSLY

if one of us had come back without the other we would've freaked out!!!

and yeah most of the time!! if they're gone longer than that then they usually forget about being here but not always

and hi Mikleo I'm Mabel!! It's nice to meet you

[circulets]

In that case, it's all the more lucky that you two were able to retain your memories. I can only imagine how challenging it would be to settle into another world without a companion to come here with you.

Hello, Mabel. It sounds as though you've been here for a long time now.

[glitterateur]

oh it's super hard!! I was here for almost a year without him or my grunkles or anyone

but yeah I've been here for two whole years by now!! I think my hero anniversary was last week???

time really flies huh

[ text ]

[dualismum]

Sometime sit happens. Some even spend years in their world, but not much time passed here.

[ text ]

[circulets]

That's one I can relate with.

But, I think I may have set the record for time away from this world versus my own.

[ text ]

[dualismum]

How long has it been?

[ text ]

[circulets]

I've estimated about 500 years, despite the fact that it was only a day here.

[ text ]

[dualismum]

[ 500 years what- ]

That IS a lot. And a record, I believe. This must feel really strange to you, I'm sorry.

[rassera]

yeah sometimes its a day sometimes its weeks

no idea what makes it different maybe its the person or how long theyre gone my friend only was gone two weeks but it was half a year back at his world

[circulets]

Hello, Kaneda.

I don't think that's correct. It may be random, just like the way that imPorts are selected is.

Did your friend keep his memories when he returned?

text;

[rassera]

random huh


you mean memories of here cause yeah he did it was like he just took a vacation or something

text;

[circulets]

Random. I was only gone for a day, but it was much longer in my world.

I see. That's... fortunate.

[rassera]

just like ken


ive been thinking about that ken says he doesnt remember stuff when he goes home but remembers them when he comes back

maybe they just get locked away or something



that sounds stupid doesnt it
