written, neat script.

It's interesting to think about the Pull that they talk about. When I went down to the beach, I could feel it, a little. I wonder if the fish feel it, and if the birds feel it. Maybe every fish in the water around here spends their whole life around this island. Maybe they don't even notice it. I'm not entirely sure that a fish could think

Does the pull work on everything here, or just people with powers? I don't know. I sent a message bottle from the shore here once. I'm not sure if it ever came back.

Cold fruit is nice- but it's best in ice cream.

I'm not sure when I'm from. Only that it's about year before the other people I know here came from.

I hadn't thought about the Pull working on things that weren't alive at all. Only on living things. Are there any normal people in the city? If normal people could leave, they could leave.

Does this world seem funny to you?

[madeinoblivion]

I don't know...normal? With nothing special about them?

Funny how?

Yes. Aren't most people supposed to be powered here?

Funny like, unfamiliar. Full of things you haven't seen before and don't know how to use.

I come from 2018, though it would by this point be 2019. Most others are from a similar time.

You're actually from ahead of when this place is supposedly, then.

I am. By the year here, I would be but eighteen years old. Hence my statements about the uselessness of attempting to prove one's age.

[payback]

You spoke from experience. I understand.

Has it changed a lot, in those few years?

[zealouspeter]

Because they're unimportant.

The future. But who knows how far - it's difficult to calculate. When are you from?

ossum. :|b same here.

The rats, the documents, the fruits, or the seasons?

I'm from seventeen-eighty two, or thereabouts.

[zealouspeter]

The rats, fruits and seasons; sometimes the documents, too. But mostly the first.

Earth?

Edo, Nippon, yes, I believe, earth.

Bodies tend to work better in the cold than the heat. But identification can be easy - there's a few establishments that will do it. Would you like to go now?

[payback]

...You would go?

aye!

[aviatarian]

Sure. I've done it before.

If it's not too much trouble, maybe it should be taken care of promptly.

There isn't record of animals being tested for that sort of thing, here. But fish have a more complex structure of thought than most people believe. A goldfish has the capacity to remember things for at least three months.

What is the identification for?

[payback]

Maybe they learn about futility then, too.

{a pause in her writing.} Just for in general, I think. How many kinds are there?

[neargenius]

They're used to that feeling. Small ponds.

Lots. Some form of government identification is the most widely used or accepted. There are also identification cards for schools, business, clubs, and other places that require membership.

[payback]

If it's all you know, do you know how small it is?

{a pause. oh gawd.} I was told I should think about studying. I suppose I need one that would work at a school, from the government.
