[And Miyako pops on screen, looking somewhat exhausted and a little worse for wear than her typical cheery self. Besides the flushed cheeks and the tired eyes, though, she's smiling at everyone like nothing's wrong. She's got her gear propped up at the desk in the Violet Inn room, since it's easier than walking around with it

[ Oooh, that one looked like it stung. ]

You okay?

Everyone keeps asking that! I'm fine. How are you, Minato-kun?

[ofmywill]

Guess we're concerned. [ Thumbs up! ] I'm good.

[digital_bingo]

That's good! [And then she sneezes again.] But you don't have to be concerned for me. I'm fine.

[ofmywill]

If you're sure.

[ A pause, and he thinks back, recalling what he's seen. ] As for injuries...they heal.

[digital_bingo]

Yeah, I'm sure! [She's not.

But she takes a moment to jot this down.] Just like normal?

[ofmywill]

Uh-huh. From scrapes to serious injuries.

[digital_bingo]

Oh... okay! This place really is kind of normal... in a weird way.

[ofmywill]

I know what you mean.

[ But for the rock snakes and suspicious lack of paved roads, it could be any countryside in Japan! But that first thing she said sticks in his mind, and he pauses briefly before deciding to ask. ]

--is that true, about dying?

[digital_bingo]

[Johto is so nice and normal! Besides... the monsters and... the NPCs...]

I... I think so! I don't want to be the first to try it out, but... That's what I heard.

[ofmywill]

Hm. [ he goes quiet a bit- some perfect world, this. go out into the desert and starve, and still not die. ]

Is it revival, or just impossible?

[digital_bingo]

I think it just... doesn't happen. But I don't know all the details.

[ofmywill]

Odd.

[ An understatement, but that's just how he rolls. Minato tilts his head to the camera, studying her with his one visible eye, casually. ]

...it's good.

[digital_bingo]

I think so too. It's better... Death is always really sad.

[ofmywill]

Yeah. [ Poor Shinji. He thinks back a second. ] But it's natural.

[digital_bingo]

Yeah... Man, this topic is a lot more depressing than I thought it would be.
