[ Sick of new faces on the network yet, Vatheon? Well, this new guy probably wouldn't even have shown up to do the whole 'Hey, I'm new here' introduction thing, except that he suddenly came to a very important realization... ]

Yo. Heard there's supposed to be a bunch of people I don't even know watching on this thing...?

Well, I just got here. My name's Saburouta Bandou. But, just call me Bandou, OK? That's what I'm used to.

And absolutely no one here is allowed to call me San-chan!

[ No. He doesn't realize none of you would have thought to call him that on your own. ]

It's a personal nickname! There's only one person who's allowed to call me San-chan and he's not even here, alright!?

[ AND HE'S TOTALLY NOT BUMMED ABOUT THAT. SO DON'T BOTHER ASKING. ]

So yeah, uh... I guess that's it.

Mikoto-san's here, too?

[ In truth, Bandou'd only checked the directory to see if Shouhei was here... When his wasn't there he really hadn't expected to run into anyone else he knew, much less this many of the guys. ]

Well that sounds like a fucking blast. What are we supposed to do down here anyway?

[redstray]

Yeah. Totsuka-san too. When were you brought here from?

[Cause that reaction isn't as surprising if you knew that he had died...]

Live, talk to people, do what you want, tolerate curses that happen.

[chickshades]

[ Nope, he'd been pulled from right before Mikoto'd died. But Totsuka's another story, altogether. ]

When? What do you mean whe--wait... Totsuka-san's here?

[redstray]

I'm from after our business at the school, Totsuka-san came shortly after he was shot, so he lived. Some people are from different times, though we came from the same place.

[He's not going to mention Mikoto died unless he knows if he already knows]

[chickshades]

Man, I have no idea what you're talking about, but... it sounds pretty damn awesome and convenient.

[ Yeah don't. You'll ruin that little smile he's got on from hearing Totsuka's OK. ]

[redstray]

[He shrugs]

It's helpful at times, not so helpful with others. Knowing things that others don't can lead to trouble.

[Oh if only he knew]

[chickshades]

Wouldn't help when we went back home? I mean... we can go back home, right??

[redstray]

We can leave...maybe. But it's random, you can be here for years. Don't know what happens after, though.

[chickshades]

Y-YEARS?!! HOW CAN THEY KEEP US HERE FOR YEARS??

[redstray]

Very easily. We never know when we can go back home, some have been here weeks some longer.
