[Today Seto isn't going to really be on his journal, in fact he's feeling rather restless.  After talking to Terra about training, it got him thinking that he should be prepared for anything as well, who knows?  He might be drafted sooner or later and even though he doesn't exactly want to fight, he doesn't want to be weak either if he's

[...] I'm awake. It may be quiet, but it's still so hard to get to sleep...

[Voice]

[presumablyalone]

[Another new person to talk to! Seto is really loving this]

It can be pretty hard to sleep even when it's quiet like this, huh? Though I don't sleep at night so that makes it even more difficult.

[Voice]

[cry_camellia]

[And Tsubaki loves worrying about people and being a stickler for rules, so win/win? :D]

You don't sleep at night? [...] Not just for the thrill of being unconventional, I hope...?

[Voice]

[presumablyalone]

[Win/win!]

N-No not that! Back home I always stayed up all night long so...I guess it became a bad habit. [He laughs nervously]

[Voice]

[cry_camellia]

Well, I suppose the first step to breaking a bad habit is acknowledging it. It shouldn't be too hard to change, and I'm sure doing so will make things a lot easier for you. [Poor Seto. You're just a kid and women are already trying to change you.]

[Voice]

[presumablyalone]

Yeah, you're right! [He doesn't fully understand that concept of women changing men so this is okay to him] I guess that means I should probably try making myself tired during the day so I can sleep at night.

[Voice]

[cry_camellia]

Just don't push yourself too hard. Going to bed a little later and waking up a little later each day should help you adjust until your sleeping schedule synchronizes with everyone else's.

[Voice]

[presumablyalone]

Okay! I'll try doing that. [Tomorrow] How come you can't sleep tonight?

[Voice]

[cry_camellia]

I'm worried about a friend who was hurt by the Malnosso. There's nothing I can do about it right now, but it's keeping me awake...

[Voice]

[presumablyalone]

Y-Your friend was hurt?? [Even though he doesn't know this person, he's worried now] What did the Malnosso do to them...?

[Voice]

[cry_camellia]

I have no idea what they did to cause it, but they... changed her. It's all over with now, [judging by the lack of new patients at the clinic] and Jin said she'd be fine, but... I don't know.

M-My apologies, though. I'm sure this isn't the sort of thing you would have wanted to hear about when you asked if anyone was awake.

[Voice]

[presumablyalone]

O-Oh...I'm sorry to hear that...But I'm glad to hear that she's going to be okay!

[He manages a small nervous chuckle] N-No, it's okay, really. I don't mind.

[Voice]

[cry_camellia]

Regardless, I should thank you for hearing me out. My name is Tsubaki, by the way.

[Voice]

[presumablyalone]

Y-You don't have to thank me. I'm always happy to listen. [Beaming] It's nice to meet you Tsubaki! My name is Seto!

[Voice]

[cry_camellia]

The pleasure's all mine, Seto. It's nice to see someone so cheerful after this whole mess. [From what she's seen, it looks like a pretty big chunk of the population was affected by Mu's rampage. Some are still in the clinic with her now, and not many of them are big on smiling at the moment.]

[Voice]

[presumablyalone]

[Oh right, Jin told him about what had happened...kinda. But Seto isn't one to let negative feelings or surroundings get to him. He tries his best to stay positive]

To be honest, I had no idea what was going on until recently...
