Cat people.  Really.  The island was first populated by cats when she first arrived.

. . .

Does anyone else think she's screwing with us?  That she found out about the diary entries we, ah-hem, appropriated and left this page lying about as some sort of odd prank?  There doesn't seem to be anything else of

What is this. Eh? "Ari"? Huh? Gin-san requires explanation. This bugs me, it just does.

[shoukanjutsu]

. . . Gin-san? You new around here or something? Ari's our mayor.

[jump_isforkids]

Gintoki, if I can trust my mind, which I'm beginning to do less and less the longer I hang around here.

Mayor, huh.

I think I solved the mystery. This is pure, un-saturated, bullcrap. Also known as LIES. Humphf! Wonder why there aren't more rebellions going on, with a mayor like that in charge!

Glowing twins? A town ~MAGICALLY~ springing up overnight? If she wasn't lying, she was probably imagining it all in her head. There are some pretty desperate people out there in the world..

[shoukanjutsu]

. . . I'd be inclined to agree with you if it weren't the fact that we've all been warped from various dimensions to land here with our memories entirely removed. Who else could've done it but a supernatural entity of some sort?

[jump_isforkids]

....

That's nice. Mhm. *you are CRAZY, sir*

I believe you. Even if the whole world were to laugh, I wouldn't. It's bad to laugh at dreams. Dreams help us move forward.

[shoukanjutsu]

Are you . . . feeling alright?

[jump_isforkids]

I should be asking you.

...

I mean, there's no such thing as various dimensions.

...

And all that.

[shoukanjutsu]

Goodness sakes, man, where do you think you are?!

[jump_isforkids]

HOW THE HELL SHOULD I KNOW, I DON'T REMEMBER A DAMN THING.

[shoukanjutsu]

No one's explained anything to you yet?! Tch. Welcome to the alternate dimension you don't believe in! This here's Memento Eden. All of us got our memories swiped and we're expected to leave out our happy lives here, lah-dee-dah. That's about the gist of it.

Oh, and you'll get them back eventually.

gintoki oh god i'm so sorry really he's he's he's just yeah

[jump_isforkids]

EEEEH! ALL OLD NEWS.

THERE AIN'T NO SUCH THING AS ALTERNATE DIMENSIONS, YOU LOONY! How the hell would there be?! This is just some deserted island south of-of-of wherever it is I was whisked off from!

How can you form such complete sentences and sound like such a normal person and believe in that?! D8 IT-IT'S ASTOUNDING!

[shoukanjutsu]

Right. Would you believe me if I set you on fire with my mind?

[jump_isforkids]

Yes.

I mean, no. Wait, stop it. Don't do that.

What?

No, th-there's no such thing as magic, Charlie. I'm...really, really sorry to break it to you. There comes a day when you gotta face reality, though. *nervous eyebrow twitch*

[shoukanjutsu]

. . . I'm really not sure whether you actually think I'm crazy or whether you're just crazy yourself.

[jump_isforkids]

*SIGH* ...I...I dunno. I can't handle it, I feel like an entire huge smorgasbord of experiences was sucked out of my brain, and...and now, there are people, like your self, who claim to know magic. And there's...cat people in town. There are people with cat ears. On their head.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's me, now that you mention it.

Hi, Klarth. How long you been here?

[shoukanjutsu]

That was a bit of a surprise to me as well, actually. Katz didn't come around until later games. But don't worry about it. You'll get used to it eventually.

Almost a year now. Your name is Gin, I assume?
