thirty-seventh breath ✧ voice

[musubi]

So I didn't... miss anything, right? I didn't fall into a coma and sleep away Valentines? Did I just miss everything?

I'm going to assume I missed everything in my solitude somehow, because there's little chance that nothing happened. You see, I would have to be worried if nothing happened because that would mean that they might want to make up for it later and no one wants that.

Therefore, I want to know everything terrible that happened to you guys while I was blissfully ignorant. Come on, regale me.

No seriously, spit it out.

No, it's... I don't know how to explain it.

It was sort of an in-between time where the future of the world's development was left up to a handful of people who were at ground zero. Really it was just supposed to be this one guy's thing, but I think our teacher had us show up on purpose or something.

So...you all released the demons into the world? Or was that the doing of this one man you are referring to?

voice;

[musubi]

I don't know! They were all just suddenly kinda... there. And the people weren't.

Like bright light and - BAM - everything's changed. You know?

voice;

[unfringed]

Oh. Do you think perhaps the light transformed the people into demons?

voice;

[musubi]

Huh? Nah, I doubt it.

They seemed like they'd always been that way.

voice;

[unfringed]

That's good...I'd rather not think of what it would mean for the world if a flash of light could cause humans to transform.

It's far more likely that a temporal rift opened and allowed the creatures to take over the places of the human beings, sending their human counterparts to the other world.

[musubi]

Uh... I guess that's an idea.

I figure they all just died.

voice;

[unfringed]

Well, that's a morbid hypothesis. Not that I can blame you - if it wasn't for my experience in the area of trans-universal theory, I likely would have thought the same.

voice;

[musubi]

Well just because you are experienced in that area doesn't mean my idea isn't necessarily true.

voice;

[unfringed]

I haven't dismissed your theory, of course, I was merely remarking on the macabre nature of it.

voice;

[musubi]

Well yeah, the whole situation was pretty grim. No matter the theory.

voice;

[unfringed]

Oh right, the demons. So what will you do about them?

voice;

[musubi]

That's not really my job anymore.

voice;

[unfringed]

Did you die?

voice;

[musubi]

Not with the rest of the people. Me and those who were left...

Well, things happened. So yeah. I died.
