[As the video clicks on, it shows a prinny first, and then slowly turns back to Japan. There's a chorus of "dood" in the background, but Japan speaks over it.]

Ah, Karkat... I believe I found Benfromlost-san. Was he lost? I do not understand how... Ah, at least, he responded to that name...

[But his voice trails off and a shocked expression

That was Seifer was it not?

[asideglance]

...It was.

[gochuugoku]

I have not seen Seifer around since I returned, aru. Did the scientists also return him home?

[asideglance]

Yes, he did.

[gochuugoku]

I see.

I will miss him, aru. I was looking forward to him teaching me sorcery.

If memory serves me right, he also spoke to me about a dojo. Is there one on this planet? I have never seen it, aru.

[asideglance]

...

There is not one that China-san would expect, I believe. There are schools, and other buildings, but they are generally western.

[gochuugoku]

I could always remodel it to look at least somewhat Eastern, aru.

But that is not the important topic here.

[asideglance]

Ah. So what is the important topic?

[gochuugoku]

The climax, aru.

[asideglance]

Oh?

[gochuugoku]

First the hallucinations, then the bodies, then the fog and the anonymous texts, now these "ghosts." This must all be leading up to something, aru. Something cataclysmic most likely.

[asideglance]

I would not doubt it. Hopefully fixing the subway will be of help.

[gochuugoku]

Hopefully, you say.

I hope so too since we are all working hard down here, aru.

[asideglance]

I am used to these sort of situations. ...Or rather, I have been in this place long enough.

[gochuugoku]

Yes, I remember you told me that when I arrived here for the very first time, when I was from 1937, aru.

I may not have been here as long as you have, but I have lived longer and have seen many things. I am anxious as to what the climax back home will be as well, aru.

[asideglance]

I am certain China-san has enough patience to find this out for himself.
