*Hey guide, have a little Shiki. He's about eight years old and he's got on his school uniform from home which is now way too big on him. He's missing his glasses, but that's just because he didn't put them on this morning since he doesn't know how important they are. Anyone who's talked to him before should be able to tell that his eyes are no

[This kid... looks familiar. Maybe it's the lack of glasses, but isn't this the person she spoke to before?]

I'm afraid I don't. Perhaps you shouldn't have wandered away in the first place.

*gj bulleta. Anyway, isn't there something really weird about these eyes of Shiki's?*

I wouldn't have if it wasn't really important. I know it's bad but I really need to be normal again and she's the only one that can help me. No one else believes me.

[toshootyouwith]

[Definitely. She's transfixed on them right now. She can tell, he isn't normal, even without him saying so.]

Who is "she"? Is normality really that important?

[linesight]

It is! I don't want to see it anymore... and her name is Aoko Aozaki. Have you seen her around?

[toshootyouwith]

I haven't. I'm sorry. What is it that you can see?

[linesight]

You won't believe me even if I do tell you.

[toshootyouwith]

Don't worry. I'm capable of believing a lot of things.

[linesight]

Um, well, see... there's these lines everywhere. They're like scribbles all over everything. Sensei says that it's bad to touch them but I can't help it they're all over the place and it's like everything's going to fall in on me. I don't know what to do!

[toshootyouwith]

Oh. That does sound like trouble! [Though it sounds really really interesting...]

So it looks like there are cracks on everything around you?

[linesight]

No! See, you don't understand... it's real... they're really there.

[toshootyouwith]

You can even touch them?

[linesight]

Yeah, I can. I don't want to but I can. I hate it...

[toshootyouwith]

It does sound like a hassle. Unfortunately, you're nowhere near where you're supposed to be anymore.

[linesight]

Yeah... I noticed. What am I going to do?

[toshootyouwith]

[Hm...]

I have an idea! Why don't you sit with me? I'll see if I can help you find your way back.

[linesight]

*Fuck fuck fuck*

Does that mean you believe me?
