002 - A Changing Situation

[sky_reflected]

Okay, I managed to both get an apartment and cleaned up. Now I just need to find a job so I can keep said apartment.

Still not entirely sure how I got here or why, but it's a second chance, so I guess I shouldn't complain too much about it even if I am away from all of themRight, first thing--I should find out more about this place. Anybody care

Oh hey, someone new! Uh...well the island's ruled by mermaids and you can get items from the fountain in the town square if you throw money in it. Oh, and...apparently people can't die here. Or something. Not quite sure on that point..

[sky_reflected]

Yeah, the name's Zack. Mermaids? Seriously? Well... I guess I've seen stranger things.

Can't die, huh? Might explain a thing or two. 'Apparently,' though? Did something happen?

[crash_pilot]

Nice to meet you, Zack! I'm Ginji.

Yeah...This one guy named Silabus drowned a while back, I think. There was all this commotion about it, but he came back a day or two later, good as new.

[sky_reflected]

Nice to meet you, too! And thanks for the information, Ginji.

...Huh. That's something else. Pretty amazing, too.

[crash_pilot]

You're welcome!

It really is amazing, yeah...I don't think I'd want to experience it though.

[sky_reflected]

Haha... Yeah, it's not fun.

[crash_pilot]

...Well, there's no point in talking about dying, especially if we can't really die anyway. It's better to be optimistic about things, don't you think?

[sky_reflected]

Of course. Optimism, like honesty, is always the best policy~

[crash_pilot]

Haha, glad you agree~!
