Do you believe in God? Gods? Do they exist where you're from? What about angels or demons or anything like that?

Where I'm from the existence of gods is hard to deny. People are pretty devote and religious. Church is an intrinsic part of our culture. It takes someone pretty hardheaded or self-centered to deny the existence of higher powers, but here there's not much emphasis on religion. Guess I'm just kinda curious now. Is it more like my home in your worlds, or more like this one?

Most of the people I noticed that had changed were younger, anyway. By about ten years or so, but I think it affected people differently. And some people, like me and Manolo, weren't affected at all.

[This world is cray, Maria. You just gotta go with it.]

That could be nice. I'm pretty sure Manolo was given an open invitation to go back to Mexico any time after our brief stint as ambassadors. Turns out his music is popular there in this world.

Maybe we could find San Angel. See what it looks like during this century.

[damselunimpressed]

Well, his music has always been ahead of its time.
It's good to know the people enjoy it now.

But that would be something!
I can't imagine what it would be like.
Perhaps it has grown.

[medalsome]

Yeah. It's a shame he wasn't better appreciated back home.

I'm sure it has grown! Cities are so big here, and there's so many people and ways to get around.

I bet San Angel's built up around the lake now! Maybe there are more bridges and churches and places for kids to play.

[Now he's really starting to feel nostalgic!]

[damselunimpressed]

You think?
Maybe they got rid of the stadium! Or at least stopped putting bulls on display.

We should find out.

[medalsome]

I think I'd be sad if the stadium was just gone.

Yeah, let's get Manolo and do some research on it.

I wonder if dad's statue is still there? Did he even exist in this world?

[damselunimpressed]

Perhaps they transformed it into something else...
Football seems to be a popular sport in this time.

[ Yes gud, kick each other and not the bulls. Perf! ]

I hadn't thought about that.
I suppose we would have to wait and see?

[medalsome]

Football is fun to watch, too! I've enjoyed the few games I've seen. Heart-pounding!

Now you've got me excited. I haven't taken a trip with Manolo in a while and

It would be nice to spend some time with you two again. I think I've let work occupy too much of my time lately.
