[ When the video feed starts, you can see the Carousel spinning its' merry way round and round. It pans around the Square and the fountain, taking in the other sights and people milling about, before it turns to settle on the phone's owner. ]

Maybe. This... network. I guess I'm seeing the other people who are trapped here too? Some of them have turned into animals. I wonder...

Are you, um, cursed, Haru?

[harutastic]

No, Haru's not cursed. And - yes, the network is for the people that are here. Animals - how interesting and yet terrible. What would Haru be...

We suddenly turned. Will this last until we get out? How long will I stay like this?

... a puppy, maybe?

[harutastic]

Maybe just a day, at least, that's how long the three other curses lasted each.

A puppy? ...a cute one?

A day... might as well make the best of it, I suppose.

A very cute and active one, yes.

Chrome-chan will look so pretty in ten years, Haru will definitely tell her - er, you - when you're back to being young again! And maybe then you'll stop being so shy...

Haha, okay, cute and active is good enough!

That... will take some time. And a bit of effort as well. But I hope you and Kyoko will check up on her every now and then? She's still a bit uncomfortable with going to visit others

And Haru will grow up to be a beautiful woman too. Just you wait.

Hahi, really? Haru can wait - meanwhile, Haru'll do that! Although...Kyoko-chan isn't here, so it's going to be Haru's duty, except it won't be a duty, because...it's what friends do, right?

[hollowedvessel]

Yes.

Though... can I ask you to be... mm, patient with my younger self?

[harutastic]

...of course, Chrome-chan...-san?

[hollowedvessel]

Either is okay, Haru.
