I wonder if I'm using this right...? There, it's starting - !

[ Ah, technology. Gracia's been in this strange, strange world for quite some time now, yet her mastery of you is still far beyond her reach. Some static and additional tinkering later, Gracia's voice is heard again. She sounds worried. Or maybe frightened? Maybe both.Is everyone doing

[Voice]

[dreamgranter]

[Now there is a familiar voice...]

Nothing has changed. [Despite, you know, the fact Gracia didn't remember anything, she was still very much the same.]

[Voice]

[bitesthighs]

[ The redhead tilts her head to the side, curiously. ]

What hasn't changed?

[Voice]

[dreamgranter]

[She gets a light chuckle in return, but that's about it. Time for a change of subject, for the sake of being awfully cryptic!]

This isn't a dream-- nor a nightmare, for that matter. Especially not to the natives of this world.

[Voice]

[bitesthighs]

[ Gracia blinked in confusion; what a strange woman...! ]

There are natives? [ She looks around her, ignoring that lingering feeling of someone - something? - watching her every move. ]

You mean people who weren't taken here, who have lived here way before?

[bitesthighs]

[ She sounds disheartened upon hearing that. ]

So even in a place like this, wars and sadness exist...what other kinds of things happened that you can tell me about?

[ Gracia remains silent for a few seconds before she replies slowly. She was still rather unused to admitting that even if she couldn't remember it, she did in fact, live in that city they called Discedo. ]

The man that called himself Japan said that I was. But I can't remember anything. Did you know me during that time?

[bitesthighs]

Den...Is that your name then? I'll call you that again. [ She manages a genuine smile. ]

[ Gracia listens intently to his summary of what happened to the world, and she wasn't too pleased with what she heard. It was just like the wars back home. It was a sad thought; it almost seemed like war was literally universal. ]

Did Discedo win before that? [ Her smile has long faded in replacement for a concerned frown. ] Why wasn't that disease cured before it could infect everyone in the city? Surely there are people who survived! [ . . .Right? ]

[musicboxsoldier]

Gracia?

[Voice]

[bitesthighs]

[ She doesn't recognize the voice, but replies somewhat cheerfully regardless. ]

Yes, that's me! And who are you?

[Voice]

[musicboxsoldier]

[...] I'm Commander Kresnik Ahtreide.

You don't remember your last visit here?

[Voice]

[bitesthighs]

A commander! [ She replies with a certain hint of awe. ] You have a strange name, but are you from the same world as me? We have commanders and generals too!

[ Gracia isn't too bothered with everyone asking her the same thing, because it only proves the truth - she really was in Discedo back in the past...she had to find out why she couldn't remember! ]

No, I don't. Were we friends back then?

[voice | English]

[baoziaru]

Ah. Gracia, I have not heard from you in so long, aru! I'm relieved to hear that you're alright.

[He's too relieved to answer the question.]

[voice | Japanese]

[bitesthighs]

[ The redhead blinks rapidly; what was that he was saying? Thankfully, at the very least, she recognized the voice! ]

Yao? [ A quiet tilt of the head. ] Is that you?

[voice | English]

[gochuugoku]

[He hears his name.]

Yes, it's me, aru! Where have you been?

[voice | Japanese]

[bitesthighs]

[ Though the communicator didn't show it, she looked extremely confused. ]

I don't understand what you're saying. . .Yao?
