[ the sound of gently rolling waves prefaces the voice feed that clicks on, a few seconds of that and maybe the distant call of a Wingull every now and then.

In January it will be a year since I arrived. I must admit that the more time I spend here, the more it feels like I've always been here.

It's a warm feeling for those of us who don't have a place to go back to, but I can understand that it would make other people feel conflicted.

The ones who don't have something to go back to... I can't even imagine what it must be like for them.

[Since Shiraishi's a) in a cave and b) a little bruised he will do himself a favour and reply to things with a voice feed, rather than a video. Suzaku might remember the voice from an egg post.]

I know quite a few who have been here for over a year... but I've also heard of cases where someone is around for only a few weeks or a month. [Like a few from their own world.]

[ he does, somewhat! though he's just as conversational either way. ]

Mm. I suppose it's all up to the whims of whoever's responsible for all of this. The ones who are kept longer don't really have much of a choice but to adapt.

[usedrapidspin]

In a way, I guess that's true for anything. But it's especially prevalent for a place that shouldn't ordinarily exist.

It is strange, isn't it? I've been here for a year and a half and I can't imagine what it would be like to leave everything behind, whether I remember any of it or not.

[voice]

[usedrapidspin]

I can't, either. Though mostly it's how close I've become to my team. [ pause. ] Arthur would be jealous if he knew.

I'm very close to my team as well. We're like a big family now.

... Was Arthur a friend back home?
