Thirty-Sixth Order (backdated to yesterday)

[sacred_thunder]

June 15th... So I've been here a full year already...

It seems like only yesterday I first arrived here. Time passes far too quickly as one gets older...

[[Private; Hackable]]And I wish I could say that I have accomplished something. But alas, our situation has changed very little over the past year. We may have learned things...we may have

... in only three months, it'll have been a year for me...

[sacred_thunder]

As I said, time goes by far too quickly at our respective ages.

[stop_it_tewi]

... I suppose so...

...

That makes me wonder how fast time goes by for Master...

[sacred_thunder]

So she is indeed older than she looks... I must admit, I'm not as surprised as I may have once been by that.

[weiss_tank]

Man you've been here for a year too? Harsh...

Wait, you don't look that old!

[sacred_thunder]

I'm in my early twenties. Time passes more quickly for me than someone ten years my junior.

[weiss_tank]

Early twenties?

[For him that is both ancient and not really that old. He's 19 but his life is so dangerous he almost doesn't see himself living to twenty]

You're still really young. Time can't be going that fast for ya.

[sacred_thunder]

I may be young, but I've seen enough in my life to make me feel much older than I am.

[patchworksanity]

The more we learn, the less realistic escape sounds, eh?

If we are to find an out, who is to say there's even something waiting for us?

[sacred_thunder]

It's possible something is waiting for us...but I, at the very least, will not let myself be deterred by a fear of the unknown.

[patchworksanity]

What I mean, is, what if there's no way for us to exist outside of this town?

What if we, ourselves, are as real as this town is?

[sacred_thunder]

...What do you mean?

[perorates]

Truly, time waits for no one.

[sacred_thunder]

So very true.

[perorates]

This must have been a particularly memorable year for you.

[sacred_thunder]

With all I've been through, I've found that most of my life consists of memorable years.

[hop_toit_udonge]

-She didn't need to hack anything, because she was there to hear it.-

... You have accomplished something.

[sacred_thunder]

...I have?

[hop_toit_udonge]

... You've helped me and my family. Minatsuki. Others, I'm sure. Even things that seem insignificant... can mean a great deal.

[sacred_thunder]

...Yes, you're right. It's said that no act of kindness, no matter how small, goes unrewarded.

Still...I'm not satisfied. I won't be satisfied until I can find out a way to break the hold this town has on us.
