...Oh. Where is Chu-Chu?

He left? This isn't fun anymore. He was my only friend.

[ OOC: Mirror!City tiemz. Anthy is no longer loyal to Akio or Utena or any of that duelist crap. As such, she's more open now and less conniving. Still gots her sekrits, though. ...Oh, and she keeps her hair down at all times, a la 'end of series'~! I'd use

Are you alright?

[bedeviling]

My friend is missing. Have you seen him?

[crossshapedscar]

What it the hell is that? A... mouse...?

I'm afraid I haven't.

[bedeviling]

Oh...

[crossshapedscar]

Perhaps it he is on the in the mirror City? Or perhaps you are in the Mirror City?

[bedeviling]

Mirror City?

[crossshapedscar]

Sou.

There is a curse going on. Perhaps you aren't aware of it. Many of us were transported here. Perhaps either you or your friend are among us. The "mirror" is exactly like the normal City--the only clue is that the people in the mirror are acting strangely compared to normal.

Maa maa...

[bedeviling]

Strangely... I don't know if I'm acting strangely.

[crossshapedscar]

I can't tell myself either, but I'm taking my friends' and families' words for it.

[bedeviling]

Are they on the other side?

[crossshapedscar]

Yes. Three of them came across to help people in the mirror--one has returned again.

So far my wife has not attempted to come across, and I hope she keeps with that line of thought. I don't want her putting herself in danger on account of me.

I would wager that your friend is on the other side--though which side it is I can't tell you. I can't believe I'm talking about a mouse...

[bedeviling]

Your wife? It must be hard to be apart.

[crossshapedscar]

So long as nothing happens to her in my absence, it will be alright.

[bedeviling]

I'm sure she will be fine.

[crossshapedscar]

She will be. She's strong and determined. I only worry about the enemies we have here in the City.

My name is Himura Kenshin. What was yours, miss?

[bedeviling]

Anthy Himemiya.
