130. Wooden [voiced]

Hey guys. I, uh, just wanted to let everybody who knew her know that Presea's gone. ...All her stuff and everything. She didn't...leave stuff for people, that I know of, so there's nothing to come and get.

...I know we're always kinda supposed to say this stuff, but I believe that she really is better off going back home. That way she'll get to

Was this Presea a friend of yours, Sheena-san? [Speaking very quietly. Starfish antics are not for now.] Fuuko is sure Presea will be a lot happier back home.

[corrinesbell]

We're from the same world. [An almost-shrug is in her voice there. Being from the same world only matters to your friendship a) in the beginning and b) if you can remember or if you know each other in the first place. People here end up as friends for many other reasons.]

I know she'll end up happier there too.

[starfishlovesu]

Even if Presea will be happier, will you be ok Sheena-san? It's always a shame to see people you know disappear.

[corrinesbell]

I'll be okay. It's not like I haven't had it happen before.

[Voice] This was here all along. Ahem.

[starfishlovesu]

Just because it's happened before doesn't make it any better, but as long as you're really ok. [...] People disappearing seems to be a natural occurrence here.

[Voice] STARFISH HEAT

[corrinesbell]

It happens pretty often. I've been here almost four years, so...I've seen it for a long time.

[Voice] You hear a gunshot! Fuuko the vigi died a bloody death.

[starfishlovesu]

When Fuuko first heard this, Fuuko thought it was an impressive feat! But if you see so many people leave after being here so long it really can't be that impressive. [There's a light cough as Fuuko wonders what to say next.] ...At least this way, being here so long means you get to meet lots of nice people to balance out the people who leave?

[Voice] Fuuko did not leave a will?

[corrinesbell]

You meet them and then they leave, too.

[This is a dark road Sheena doesn't really want to walk down right now.]

...But you're right I guess. There are a lotta good people.

[Voice] I WAS GETTING TO THAT. From the will of Fuuko: Sheena is mafia!

[starfishlovesu]

They can't all leave though, right? It's very horrible when you're all alone. But like you said, there will always be lots of good people here!

[So time to drop this rather depressing topic.]

Can Fuuko come around for tea again soon?

[Voice] What? No way! She's lying.

[corrinesbell]

You can come for tea anytime you want and the place is open.

[Don't break in.]

[Voice] FUUKO NEVER LIES. EXCEPT WHEN SHE'S MAFIA.

[starfishlovesu]

Fuuko will come right away then! ...Is it open now?

[Going to break the door down with a starfish.]

[Voice] NEVER GIVE FUUKO A GUN

[corrinesbell]

Nope. It's closed right now. I might go over and open it later though.

[Voice] NO, ALWAYS GIVE FUUKO A GUN /quietlyshootsnephry

[starfishlovesu]

In that case Fuuko will come and visit you directly! Where do you live Sheena-san?!

[There might be an alternate motive to why she wants to visit her past drinking tea and bringing up starfish.]

[Voice] OMG is she coming over to HOOK.

[corrinesbell]

House eighteen. It's by that rec center place now.

[Voice] DFLHJDFZSL-- NO!! OH GOD NO. DOES SHE LOOK LIKE ALBERT TO YOU?

[starfishlovesu]

[Completely innocent alternate motive. Gosh.

Fuuko hasn't been to the rec center yet, but she has a map from the Welcome Center! So this shouldn't be too much of a problem.]

Fuuko will be there soon! [And away she goes.]

[Voice] MAYBE SHE'S IN DISGUISE! Even Albert is unidentifiable under the makeup...

[corrinesbell]

Uh...okay.

[Will be waiting here then. For a visitor she's only met once. Who likes starfish.

Oh boy.]
