Neku?

[seasalttwilight]

It is, but not really. People leaving and coming back with no memories happens a lot so I'm sort of used to it.

I've been here for a while.

[em0phones]

Yeah, and this isn't exactly the first time I've had my head screwed with. You'd think it'd be old news.

[em0phones]

That's rough. Guess you've gotten pretty used to it, right?

[seasalttwilight]

Yeah, actually. I like it better here than...where I was.

[Pokemonland is way more fun than virtual Twilight Towns and Sora]

[em0phones]

Too bad I couldn't just trade off my spot to someone else who'd like it here.

[em0phones]

Yeah, the fire-breathing dog kind of tipped me off about that one.

[seasalttwilight]

Wait'll you see the floating rocks.

[em0phones]

... Floating rocks?
