Hero Time the Fourteenth

Looks like some people are overreacting to yesterday's curse. I didn't think it was that bad. A little strange, maybe, but nice, overall.

Got a question, though.

Has anyone ever met anyone in the City who, uh...knew a whole lot about you even though you never met that person before? Just wondering.

[ooc: In response to this. Goku is... ( Read more... )

Yes. With the way the worlds intersect... some people know others in stories of kinds... This unworthy one has been told... his life is canonized in something called a 'manga'... The accuracy of some of the things he has been told are eerie.

He does not believe that the others from his world are aware of this. He isn't sure how to think about it himself, so he has not said anything to any of them... Though he will say that this sort of thing... seems more common than you would really think...

Seriously? That's- they make stories about us? No wonder he said I was famous...

I'm...not really sure what to think about that. I mean, I guess I lead a more interesting life than some, but- ...I dunno. It's not something I'd necessarily want people reading about.

This- 'manga' thing...do you know what it is?

Apparently...

The thought that disturbs this unworthy one more than anything... is whether those works are defined by his life... or if his life is defined by those works...

They are like books... or perhaps scrolls more accurately, only cut to fit pages rather than on one roll. He has not looked at them...

Even if... if they are accurate he could possibly get his answer... but he does not want to know. He will... find out when he is returned...

...That is a pretty disturbing thought. Honestly, I hope it's the former. Otherwise...I don't know. It's just...strange.

When you put it like that, I guess I don't really want to look either. The future...it's complicated. There was one time in my world when the son of a friend of mine traveled back in time to warn us about a pending disaster, but that's different from looking at your whole life on a page. I'd rather find out for myself what's coming than look it up in a book.

This unworthy one finds it odd that he can be told that and no longer find it strange... he has clearly been in the City too long...

Aa... even if it is bad. There is a note of courage in being able to face it directly...

Mou he needs to stop thinking like this... There is no guarantee that it is going to end badly.

Yeah...I heard from Guy that sometimes a bunch of people come to the City all at once, and they all know things about...us. Guess I should be ready for that, in case it happens sometime while I'm here.

I think so, too.

Whatever you have to face when you get back home, Kenshin, I'm sure you'll be able to see it through. There aren't any guarantees, in this life or the next, but trying your very hardest is what makes all the difference.

Aa. It's happened two or three times while he has been here. They will swarm you and want to hug you...

He will not give up, Goku-dono. He will push himself to stop this thing from happening even until his body crumbles from the strain of his own will... but that doesn't mean he will not continue losing sleep over it until he knows for sure...

I heard about the hugging. Gonna try to avoid that, I think. Hugs are fine, but I don't...really want to be mauled.

Hmm...well, I can't really say I blame you for worrying. Still, there are things you can do here to prepare for when you go home. It might not help a whole lot, but you'll at least know you're doing something, you know?

Ah ha ha...

He... already knows what happens to a point... because Kaoru-dono had told him... his strongest attack is broken by his opponent... and he is nearly killed...

...

If Enishi truly goes after Kaoru-dono at that point...

This unworthy one needs to stop this. It's helping nothing, and she's here now. He has other things he needs to worry about now...

Sumanu, Goku-dono, he shouldn't bother you with all of this...
