Counting...

[mementojing]

In some senses, this is one of the strangest places I have ever been to.
I think I am up to a hundred and twenty now with no signs of stopping.

A hundred and thirty three. A hundred and fourty five.

Haha. Saying doing this for most of my life was 'just for fun' would be quite strange, wouldn't it?

Paixao? I was wondering how that was spelled.

Still, to consider this a whole new world entirely.. That would explain a bit. Except the strange entrance..

[shiningenergy]

You're very lucky, to be able to do that. That's the way life is supposed to be, isn't it?

Oh, you came in through one of those too? Mine was called "Muspelheim."

[mementojing]

I don't think I've ever spent one day not thinking about how lucky I am.

According to the brochure map, I think I ended up somewhere outside of Joutenheim when I came here.

[shiningenergy]

That's the best thing you can do, I think; cherishing every day.

Joutenheim? Let's see.. wow, that's a little far.

[mementojing]

That along with living every day to it's fullest. Those are philosophies I firmly believe in~.

A little bit, but there seems to be trains. Which is more than I can say for most of the places I’ve been.

But that would take the fun out of exploration.

[shiningenergy]

It's a good philosophy!

Mhm, I saw some train tracks earlier when I was having a look around. They run from the gate to the rest of the city, I think.

I've been exploring on foot too. ^^

[mementojing]

I'm pretty sure they do, judging by the way they seem to go. This town seems to go out of it's way to give people luxuries.

Exploring on foot is pretty grand compared to the train. There's a lot of little things the eye would miss if you went on a train.

On the negative side, I think my feet are starting feel the effects of a good two days nearly on foot.

[shiningenergy]

Isn't that what a town is supposed to do..?

That's true! The buildings here are all really pretty, like something out of a storybook. And there are plenty of hotels too, if you need to get off your feet.

[mementojing]

I've never seen a town with this much convenience in my life. At least, without strings attached. Then again, being pulled out of Mojito was pretty thick rope in itself.

The surrounding are beautiful though, I’d have to agree. Although some of this place does remind me much of Zaza. (I wonder if they have a masquerade mascorrida here as well.. )

I’ll go to the hotel eventually, but I do want to see how far I can get into the city before then. Plus, I don’t think leaving Kir to his own devices at nighttime would be good. Especially in this type of place…

[shiningenergy]

Ah, it sounds so nice to have so many stories. I guess that's what happens when you travel a lot. ^^

Kir is your albatross partner, right? Does he often get into trouble..?

[mementojing]

Yea, you start accumulating a lot of stories. Even if they aren't you're own in particular, it's nice to be able to think back on 'em.

.... You could say that..

[shiningenergy]

If we ever meet up in this city, I'd love to hear some.

Ehe. ^^ My "partner" gets me in trouble sometimes, too.

[mementojing]

If we meet up, I'll be sure to tell you some~!

Really? Is your 'partner' here with you..?

(As for Kir, he gets distracted by things a lot. I wouldn't put it passed him to go 'exploring' around here. )

[shiningenergy]

Yep! He was here with me when I woke up. Inuki goes with me everywhere, so I'm glad. I don't know what I'd do without him.

(I better keep a close eye out for him, then! Getting in trouble after you've just arrived wouldn't be so good.)

[mementojing]

That's good. While traveling is good, it's better to do it with someone else than alone.

I think sometimes the same thing goes for Kir and I. Even though we have our disagreements.. I don't think it'd be the same without him.

(Ah, don't worry about it too much.)

[shiningenergy]

Mhm. ^^ Plus, I've already made some friends in Paixao, so it's not just Inuki and me anymore.

I think I know what you mean. I really hope you can find him soon!
