[The feed starts to Dev making a fuss of his little chibi cat demon, he smiles at it. When he looks up at the feed however his expression becomes stony. Someone's not amused with the shenanigans happening this week.] Seth, I think that we need to have a talk. Seeking revenge on children who haven't experienced what you want to get revenge for isn't

I don't really know what you're talking about, but I just-

[She looks away from the device as she is not used to doing this.]

Thanks for the other day.

[Dev looks up - to Shiki he'll look a good few years older than when they first spoke. He gives her a contimplative look and then appears to remember something]

Ah, yes, I remember now - no not at all. [He offers her a smile] Are you doing well now?

[Shiki appears a little confused. He looks strange.]

Remember now? It wasn't that long ago.

[She shrugs.]

I'm alive. About the same. I just want to get the hell out of here.

[Age does that to you. Especially when you last met and he was 18 but could pass off as earlier 20's and now he was 25 he could pass off as early 30's.]

According to the time scale of this place, no it hasn't, but I've suddenly got more memories and, look at me, I'm older.

That's good to hear nonetheless. I share the notion, I think a lot of people are sick of this place..though I know some that would prefer to be here than their home.

[Not shocked, just surprised.]

What the hell happened to you?

[meno_nikephoros]

I think it's the latets thing the ghosts here are doing to us. I'm 25 right now, I was 18 when you met me.

[Dev sighed and continued to pet his demon]

You're unaffected by it I see.

[thefirstshiki]

[She looks confused.]

I am, yeah.

. . . The ghosts did this to you?

[She finds this hard to believe.]

[Dev rubs the back of his neck]

They can do different things to our environment as well, before you showed up we were in a place called Silent Hill, thanks to them.

When you're here long enough you learn to accept that what happens is down to the ghosts that brought us here.

[Is clearly not happy about this and says nothing.]

I know it's a pain in the arse, but we are trying to work out either a way out of here or a way to calm the area to a place we can live.

Idealistic I know, but it's a nice thought.

[thefirstshiki]

[Does not plan on living here that long.]

Right, well, good luck then.

[meno_nikephoros]

[No one does around here sweets.]

Mm, yes you too, call me if you need anything.

[video]

[thefirstshiki]

Sure.

[She won't, but he doesn't have to know that. Nothing personal. She waves.]
