[ MALL TIME. which, well there's plenty available to them.... top pate, smexy salon, puppy play, sears.. Setsu is kinda just looking around for now, unsure which to check out first. their emotions are also just vibing calmly. ]
I have seen a lot of people at the pet store. I can't say I blame them, it's a good spot to relax.
[ there's a tinge of amusement. sometimes puppies soothe the soul of anyone. ] I don't really know what the skate park is though. And Sears looks to be another clothing place?
Ah, right, my profile does mention my military experience but that's about it. My military upbringing is because of that base.
I'm a Federal Galactic Army Special Forces solider. My whole rank and all is a bit of a mouthful so I don't necessarily pull it out unless it's needed. "Lietuenant Setsu of the Federal Army 928th Division Class B Defense Force." ...See? Mouthful. [ there's a light wave of amusement. ]
..Gnosia are who we call that have been infected by the Gnos. The fabric of their brains undergoes an alternation that connects them to the Gnos and changes them into the carriers of its will. Their only purpose is to save humanity by destroying them.
No, in reality it isn't. But to them it is. By... erasing someone, they essentially allow their minds to join with the Gnos. Long as it benefits the Gnos, it's all they care about.
From the way I understand it, yes. Erasing humans... allows their minds to join in with the Gnos. [ and because the question will likely come up ] The Gnos is an aggregation of merged together minds. So, with that, they benefit from that process.
[ so by erasing humans, they gain more minds to their hivemind. yay...? ]
It just Eats. It's not a being with thoughts, as far as we're aware.
It's not common. It's a being from a different reality that leaked into ours, and now we're trying to get rid of them. Or, that's what we were trying before I died.
[ that makes it sound a lot more than what it appears. but they don't sound too bewildered by it. more like trying to understand it better. ] So it's something that has affected your universe more directly? [ ah ] ..You mean before arriving here?
Really? And, well.. before coming here, I've only ever fished once. But I quickly got the hang of it and came to enjoy it a lot.
So, once the canals had fish in them, I tried to figure out a way to fish. Haru ended up helping me and we've sorta been fishing every week. It's.. like a break from everything.
...Yeah. I've never really had much interest in arcade games and things like that so. [ they're already moving to bait some lines. they wanna fiiish ] I was glad they opened up a place like this.
Concentrating hard on their pins just to perceive us... it's strange, but it works somehow. So you think with their new locations this week being some of Shibuya, that's why we're having some overlap?
[ their friends are here and they truly are just work mode trying to figure this out smh. ]
[Sometimes you live to work, and that's valid. (maybe)]
I do think so. There are some pieces of Shibuya that they have on that side, that aren't present here. Scramble crossing, the Hachiko statue... I wonder if we weren't all that far apart to begin with.
My team was trying to figure out which of our two Shibuya may be the real one. Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with Earth and it's locations so it's beyond me. But Kazuki did mention there was something that felt off about the Hachiko statue on their side.

WEEK 2, MONDAY.
Ah, Kyoko. Checkings things out as well, I take?
no subject
Of course. It's best to understand what we have available this week. Anything you're especially interested in?
no subject
Not anything in particular. I've just sorta been trying to make my rounds. What about you?
no subject
[There are so many nerds here. (she is also a nerd)]
no subject
[ there's a tinge of amusement. sometimes puppies soothe the soul of anyone. ] I don't really know what the skate park is though. And Sears looks to be another clothing place?
no subject
Sears has... a sense of fashion to it. [Not her sense of fashion.]
no subject
Mm, a lot of the fashion so far I haven't been really familiar with, but I guess that's just Earth fashion in general.

no subject
[Kind of glad she's not personally in the military, that would be a pain to write on forms.]
Not much of a reason to use the whole thing while you're here.
no subject
Not if this is in a different pane in another universe, my credentials only apply to my own after all. Dependent on the jurisdiction and all that.
no subject
I don't have to worry about any credentials like that.
WEEK 4, MONDAY.
no subject
What is Gnosia?
no subject
..Gnosia are who we call that have been infected by the Gnos. The fabric of their brains undergoes an alternation that connects them to the Gnos and changes them into the carriers of its will. Their only purpose is to save humanity by destroying them.

no subject
[Yikes.]
no subject
[ it's... super bad. ]
no subject
Kyoko herself isn't there, but that robot she summons sure is watching all of this go down.]
no subject
they blink a bit, alarmed because... that.. form? ]
..What was that?
no subject
It did a number on him.

no subject
It's been a problem we've been dealing with for eight years now.
no subject
You've mentioned your work before, but I did not think it extended to this.
no subject
no subject
It's the same way with my dealing with the Gnosia threat. As a soldier, I can't really sit idly by.
no subject
We learned a little bit more about each other today.
no subject
So we have.
W5: Monday
no subject
Have you fished before, Kyoko?
no subject
no subject
So, once the canals had fish in them, I tried to figure out a way to fish. Haru ended up helping me and we've sorta been fishing every week. It's.. like a break from everything.
no subject
That seems like a good way to de-stress, considering everything that's happening here.
no subject
[ makes sense. ]
...Yeah. I've never really had much interest in arcade games and things like that so. [ they're already moving to bait some lines. they wanna fiiish ] I was glad they opened up a place like this.
no subject
There's a little something for everybody by now. I still prefer the library, but if there was an internet cafe I'd like that more.
WEEK 7, MONDAY.
They make it sound like we're over there, but we're clearly still here. Following them around was a bit difficult but at least it's possible?
no subject
They have to concentrate hard for that. Texting is a little easier, but it's nice to talk...
no subject

no subject
I live close to my Shibuya, so I can say... nobody would graffiti Hachiko. If they did, it would be immediately cleaned.
I wonder if anybody will try to remove the tag?
