[Ritsuka is looking rather old. Twenty-three to be exact. He remembers everything and he's realized that things aren't going quite right. Espeically after talking to Poland who apparently doesn't remember anything. WEIRRRD event. He's walking into the mansion ... finally, and looking around. He needs to find his brother and Soubii. And Hubb

[There's a long pause and a sigh. Then the mumble of 'I wish the mansion had made me little too']
You're in the mansion Seimei. You probably don't remember anything that's happened because you're little now. The mansion does things to everyone. They call them events and they come from people's memories. I don't know who's memory this is from but because of it everyone is getting bigger or smaller. I guess when you get smaller you lose your memory.
[This is Seimei, so he's probably near the kitchen ... or a computer where he can play video games. Ritsuka remembers ... before Seimei told him about beloved, before he died, that Seimei really liked computer games. He'd stay up late while Ritsuka would fall asleep in the bed watching him. Seimei always looked happy when he was playing his video game. He'd always look back and smile at him.]
There are really bad people here, and ... and I'm the big brother right now so I have to take care of you.

I don't believe that you're Ritsuka, Mister older Ritsuka. That's a really silly lie. Ritsuka is small and I'm the big brother. I don't know if I like this game but I'll play until I don't like it anymore.
Bad people? What do they look like?

[He's frowning, trying to think of how to describe Hibari and the Major. They're the two biggest threats ... mostly the Major for now. Hibari's just a jerk mostly.]
The person you need to avoid no matter what is a fat ugly guy. He's called the Major. He's a nazi and he'll hurt you if you get near him. He's smart though so he might set a trap or something.
The other one's called Hibari. He's stupid and annoying and violent. He carries tonfa and likes to beat people up.

[The words come out rather annoyed. He doesn't like this part of the game. 'Ritsuka' is being mean! Seimei scurries off down a hall from his sitting spot on the stairs.]

Can I even speak when you're that are?! Seimei's not being logical. Why can't Seimei be the big brother! Stupid Mans- [Ritsuka's just running and still hasn't mastered running this fast and looking where he's going while having a child-like hissy fit. The adult Seimei would probably have found this endearing ... but the thought is lost on Ritsuka as he trips over something and feels a small body. He thinks fast as his harms wrap around the body and hold tight while he rolls so he's not squashing the kid. He's pouting though.]
I'm sorry I called you stupid. I'm just ... really upset about the event. [He gives him another quick but not squishing hug.] I'm sorry. I'm really sorry Seimei. Seimei's not stupid. [His upper face is in Seimei's hair. The older/younger boy smells like a memory that Ritsuka can't hold onto.]

You really are Ritsuka. Ritsuka does that. He talks in that funny way sometimes. Don't call me stupid it's not fair.

I'm sorry. It's been really bad for a really log time. I'm glad Seimei forgot. Does Seimei want to go find some video games?

Really bad? What's been really bad? Why are you sad?
[He might be small but he's a big brother. Seimei pats Ritsuka's head a bit then kisses his nose.]
Don't be sad Ritsuka. I don't like it.

We can go to a tea room so Seimei can play video games.
[He wanted to keep his brother out in the open as little as possible. Who knew what this event had done to the Major.]

You'll play with me right? It's not fun if you don't play.

I'll try. I'm not as good at games as Seimei. Seimei is always better then me.

[It's the first time in a long time that anyone has seen Ritsuka smile. He doesn't remember Seimei at this age, but he sounds the same as he was before he left. Calm and mature. Seimei always knew better.]

[Seimei is happy to Ritsuka smile. He doesn't know it's been sometime since he's seen it but a smile from little brother is as good at twenty something as it is now.]
