I've regained my original clothes and weapon, and managed to 'settle in' as best as I can. Sadly, as I soon found out, my outfit is not very wing-friendly. I've had to find new chest armour through which these damn things fit, and covering them up with my cloak is too much of a hassle to go through with.

This whole situation is still ridiculous. All-powerful beings turning people in pseudo-angels? I can't help but find that familiar. Still, it seems I'm viewing it from an entirely different perspective this time. What's even more cheerful is that those from my own world are rudely turning their back on me.

Well, no matter. I can handle this alone.

Do forks exist in your world?

[fortunefail]

Well, yes. But what has that got to do with anything?

[quitemysterious.livejournal.com]

Only absolutely everything~ ♥

[fortunefail]

... If you say so.

[quitemysterious.livejournal.com]

And I do~ ♥

[fortunefail]

In that case, I hope my answer was of use to you.

[quitemysterious.livejournal.com]

It was~ But I might like some clarification -- did you mean Tethe'alla or Sylvarant exclusively use forks, or do both make use of them?

[fortunefail]

How did you-

2/2

[fortunefail]

... Forks are a common tool. In both worlds.

[quitemysterious.livejournal.com]

Then that's very helpful~ ♥

Do you happen to know if forks existed prior to the worlds splitting apart, or did the develop later?

[fortunefail]

... I can only assume forks have existed for at least four-thousand years, as have other cutlery items.

Who told you so much about the history of the worlds?

[quitemysterious.livejournal.com]

I put it together based on some talks I've had with dear Sheena, Lloyd, and Kratos~
There's also a few individuals here from the re-combined world some two thousand years after Lloyd 'saved the day' ♥

[fortunefail]

Yes, I've read about that. It's an interesting phenomenon, to say the least.

[quitemysterious.livejournal.com]

Very much so~ ♥

[fortunefail]

What else have you discussed with Lloyd and the others?

[quitemysterious.livejournal.com]

Oh, not much~ I barely know Kratos and Lloyd. I've met Colette and she's quite charming~

As for Sheena, well, she'd claim she wants me dead. ♥

[fortunefail]

I see...

[reki-shi.livejournal.com]

Were you that powerful in your previous life?

No one should have to be alone, especially in an unfamiliar place like this. If you'd like someone to talk to, I'll always be available, okay?

[fortunefail]

Powerful? ... Perhaps, in a way.

I've spent most of my life alone. I'm a grown man, I can take care of myself. But I appreciate the offer, all the same.

[reki-shi.livejournal.com]

I see. It still sounds like a lonely existence.

I'm Reki, by the way. I'm still new to this place.

[fortunefail]

It seems there were many new arrivals recently. Perhaps there's a pattern.

My name's Yuan.

[reki-shi.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure. I've heard so many bad things about this place, but I haven't seen anything out of the ordinary, either. I'm ... sure that will change, though.

It's a pleasure to meet you, Yuan.

[fortunefail]

Judging from this place's history, it won't be too long until something peculiar happens.

[reki-shi.livejournal.com]

Whatever it is, I hope it's not too dangerous...

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

Dad was right, then...

...Yuan. So you're here too now, huh?

[fortunefail]

I am, yes. But as Kratos made it quite clear that I should "stay as far away from you as possible", I have no choice but to oblige.

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

He's just not ready to forgive yet, I guess.

[fortunefail]

Knowing Kratos, it's something that will never happen. He's stubborn. ... A trait you seem to have inherited.

[chikaidestroyer]

You mentioned when you first arrived that you had wings prior to arriving here. Your clothing was suitable for those wings, but not the Filials'?

And handling this alone is not recommended. The Malnosso seem to prey on these that are by themselves.

[fortunefail]

My previous wings weren't solid. They were created by distorting the Mana in my body, therefore, they could simply pass through the clothing.

So let those Malnosso prey. If they dare show their face to me, I'll make sure they get what they deserve.

[chikaidestroyer]

What would be the point of expending energy to form wings? Unless they allowed flight or something else, they sound highly decorative.

You would be the first... None of those abducted in the three months I have been here have seen their faces.

[fortunefail]

If anything, they were a display of power. But at least they were more useful than these tiny feathered things I have now.

[gojyo-saaama.livejournal.com]

Maybe it's 'cause you're not th'cheerful guy they remember.

Got it in one, huh?
