Classroom Hallways [ Open ]

This log is: OPEN
Location: Friday afternoon during classes.
Warnings: N/A

Kallen wasn't exactly excited (as usual) to be here. Held hostage against her will...again. She stood in one of the hallways during lunch without much to do. The people in the classroom were too noisy and she just needed the banter to be reduced in order to think for the rest of the break. Between her fingers she slid a memory some start to finish and then back again. Kallen had three, but it dwindled down to one. She knew no one in her dorm in their right mind would steal from her (especially the guys since her an Gino's argument; not to mention she had been spending less and less time there). So considering the whole 'system' so to speak, Kallen had a good idea that they were taken away, not stolen.

"Guess this is your way of trying to make me fight."

Something didn't feel right in all of this. Why make everyone fight in order to get memories back? And on top of that, she still didn't feel like she was forgetting anything. Not until this morning.



{Feel free to notice that the top of Kallen's uniform looks wrong or off. Spoiler: she doesn't remember how to wear a bra, so yeah, she didn't wear one at all was too frustrated after fighting with it.}

You may feel that way, but I doubt you were exempt. Don't you have any desire to find out what pieces of the puzzle are missing from your mind?

[queenscheckmate]

I would, if there was something. [And she means that.] I do have to fight, I don't plan on doing it meaninglessly.

[snakesonaprincess]

I can agree with that assessment. It's best not to just charge into things without fully understanding what's going on.

[she pauses, thinking on that.] Perhaps I've been a bit overeager as well.

[queenscheckmate]

It's all right. I too, once fought to regain something, so I understand.

[snakesonaprincess]

For my own part, I merely lapsed into thinking partaking in the game was necessary. After all, I've grown quite accustomed to it. But here the rules are different... Perhaps I'm simply having a hard time coming to terms with that.

[queenscheckmate]

I think it's understandable, since this world closely aligns with your own.

[snakesonaprincess]

It's a bit worrying, to be honest. I can't help but wonder why that is...

[queenscheckmate]

[A moment of silence passed because well, Kallen couldn't say much in terms of comfort or knowledge. But in the mean time, she figured it was best to introduce herself.]

I'm Kallen.

[snakesonaprincess]

[She just nods in acknowledgment of the name, before offering her own.]

Tsuki Aoi. A pleasure.

[queenscheckmate]

Likewise.

So, is there anyone else from your world here?

[snakesonaprincess]

Quite a few it seems. Sora Himoto, Yuki Yagizawa, Koharu Izakki, Reiko Date and Shirou Tougyu are all classmates of mine.

Do you have any associates as well?

[queenscheckmate]

[Yuki's name was the only one that sounded familiar. But she never got the creepy doll guy's name (aka Tougyu)]

Yes. Although some of them should not be walking among us.

[snakesonaprincess]

[Now that was a strange thing to hear.]

Why would you say that?

[queenscheckmate]

[Kallen looks to the left and right of her before speaking again. Her voice is low because she doesn't know who might be listening.]

They're both dead in my world. I watched them die.

[snakesonaprincess]

Dead? How is that... possible...

[queenscheckmate]

I watched one of them die, get stabbed by someone I had place my faith in. The other, I killed him.

[snakesonaprincess]

I see... and yet both these people are here?

Are you sure they aren't impostors or something of that nature?

[queenscheckmate]

Yes. And it's not just me. Someone else from my world remembers both of them dying just like I do... not to mention that one of those people is her brother.

To be honest, I'm been weary to prove it. Her brother, she's spoken to him and as far as I know, it's really him.

[snakesonaprincess]

That must be quite... disturbing, to say the least. So not only can this place draw people from other worlds, it can do so to those beyond the grave?

It doesn't make any scientific sense at all.

[queenscheckmate]

You're telling me. [She laughs lightly.]

[snakesonaprincess]

Yet more mysteries for us to solve I suppose.

[queenscheckmate]

Well it's really my problem in a way, so you don't have to involve yourself.

[snakesonaprincess]

True, I don't have to deal with ghosts of those I know hanging around. But all the same, figuring out how this system works is in the best interest of all of us. There's no telling who could show up in the future...

[queenscheckmate]

You have a point and since this world is like yours in a way, I suppose I can get all the help I can on this.

[snakesonaprincess]

...it's troubling, but I feel like I used to know much more about Exaclan than I do now. If only I could remember those things... [she sighs]
