[The journal will pick up a faint mumbling at first. It's audible if one listens closely.]

This had better not be the Dual Blade's doing. I don't want to go through all that again.

I just have a few questions for the people here. This is Luceti, right?

And what date is it?

This is Luceti. It's [date]. Are you alright?

(ooc: mun is unsure exactly how dates work icly; apologies T_T)

[voice]

[oracleofdeath]

[Dates are the same, only the year would be different.] I'm fine, just a bit surprised.

Re: [voice]

[no_use_running]

Surprised?

... I see. You weren't just kidnapped by the Malnosso, were you?

[voice]

[oracleofdeath]

No, I got sent home. It was mid-October then, so guess I was gone only two weeks unless a whole year passed since then too.

[filmtrail]

It's the fourth of November. Were you kidnapped? [only logical explanation she can think of]

[oracleofdeath]

Hmm, wasn't too long at all. Oh, I went home, so I expected it to be much later here. [Or something like that.]

[purpledemoneyes]

Yes, this is Luceti. Where are you from?

[oracleofdeath]

No particular place. I'd been traveling with some friends for over a year and ended up back here. How strange, I thought I was gone for good.

[purpledemoneyes]

This place is strange that way. Just don't try to leave.

Wait, back here? Have you been here before?

[oracleofdeath]

Yes. I arrived originally back in January. It appears I was sent home and have returned again.

[god_is_a_dude]

So you're returning? [He vaguely knows this person from that one time... but then, he didn't know she had gone either.]

[oracleofdeath]

It would appear so. Rather interesting how events can repeat themselves at times.

[god_is_a_dude]

Yeah, it can be. It's probably some sort of fate-based randomizer or something, anyway.

[oracleofdeath]

It could be far worse though. At least time has passed and I wasn't sent back to when I first arrived. [Because seriously, with the way her world works, that wouldn't be strange.]

[Voice]

[oda_hates_me]

... Iris... chan? [That's spoken in a surprised mumble. Is she really back?]

[Voice]

[oracleofdeath]

[And she's not sure if she should be happy or sad that Sanji is still here.] It would seem this place wanted me back.

[Voice]

[oda_hates_me]

[He's having near the same thoughts.

Do you feel thankful a friend returns from the dead, or sad they're left to suffer under the thumb of uncaring scientists?

... They've no real choice in the matter, anyway. And he'd honestly thought he'd never see her again]

Should I welcome you back? [There's a wide grin on his face now, perhaps relieved] Not the best place to return to, but...

[Voice]

[oracleofdeath]

[There are worse things, like you know, not existing.] If you wish to. I admit, I kind of hate saying that I'm glad to see you again, because I know this place isn't nice.
