[ he's a little hesitant to approach mizu, actually, because he knows mizu isn't much of a talker and probably won't want to be bothered after whatever the heck just happened. ]

What happened to you guys? I thought this place was supposed to be safe aside from... last week. There's some other kind of danger out there?

[purities]

[it's fine... mizu is just chilling, now that some medical attention has been provided.]

I don't know. [slowly, clearly a bit frustrated.] When I woke up this morning, it was as though I was in another world. Living another life. Our memories were altered to match.

[outdistanced]

Like you were hypnotized? That can happen here?

[purities]

I wouldn't call it that. All my previous memories were overwritten, and I thought I had lived in that other world my entire life.

The passage of time was also... different.

[outdistanced]

Mr. Taair said something along those lines, too.

[ it still sounds like hypnotism to him but sure if you say so. ]

Different how?

[purities]

How long has it been since you last saw me?

[outdistanced]

Uhh... A day, maybe?

[purities]

For me, it's been over a century.

[outdistanced]

What? Wouldn't you have-- died? [ hm. can they die of age here if they're already dead. ] Is that really possible?

[purities]

It seems so. Though none of us were humans at the time. Or at least, we didn't think we were.

[this be transformation week, so.]

[outdistanced]

[ still not defeating the hypnotism allegations aside from OVER A CENTURY GOING BY ]

Right... Mr. Taair said something about a fox?

[purities]

You probably mean the foxians, not a fox.

[outdistanced]

Ah... Yeah, that sounds right.

[purities]

Jiaoqiu is a foxian. It's what we believed ourselves to be.

[outdistanced]

Oh. So that's why it looked like those things Mr. Yuan was killing on Sunday.

[purities]

Yes. The things we experienced appear to have heavily borrowed details from his life.

[outdistanced]

Great. So not only is it bad enough that we’re dead, but we can still die, get hurt, and have our own memories used against whoever. Because we needed more trouble here.
