Nino: Ask about the other "Ninos" in your dream.

08-Jul-2023
Nino: ...Right.Nino: Among what little memories I have, there is an odd one.Nino: I can't say anything about it, besides the fact that it merely exists,Nino: Buried somewhere deep beneath the surface. Nino: No, it must be asked. What were all of the other slaughtered "Ninos" in the flock? Why were they impaled by their own blades, and resting within their own blood? Why did they vary so much in appearance? Nino: Ah, don't get me wrong.Nino: I'm saying that it's in your memories. Nino: Memories that can be revisited, mind you.Nino: Even though you have no explanation or understanding of it, just like me...Nino: It remains ignored in here, sleeping in the depths.Nino: But now that you're more willing to confront all sorts of uncomfortable things, it would be…

Nino: Answer Nino.

04-Jul-2023
You step back, and begin gathering your thoughts. Slowly, you construct several potential answers in your mind. It feels like you've made him wait an eternity to hear you speak at all, but at the same time, it is as if your thinking time had lasted mere moments. You've faced each other for minutes, and simultaneously, eons. Perhaps time is not at all a factor in this place. And perhaps, then, it means you can take solace in the possibility that not much of it has passed outside in the waking world, yes? Not that it makes shutting this guy up for good any less urgent, really. Let's get started, then. Nino: He's lying when he tells you that you "Only have yourself." Aria seems to think you sacrificed yourself…

Be Nino!!!!

18-May-2023
You've become really desperate about that by now, haven't you? Very well. Fortunately, it is finally a good time to fulfill your wish. He's just about ready for it. But do temper your expectations. Because this encounter won't last long. Nino: What the hell was that...Nino: What was I thinking...? Nino: Wait, no... you, it's YOU!Nino: What were you thinking, going off-course like that!? Nino: Uh, I...Nino: I... don't know. Nino: What was the point of all that planning!?Nino: To go against everything at the last second...Nino: God, they've made me so unbelievably wishy-washy. Nino: Hey, uh...Nino: If you claim to be me, then wouldn't you know what I was thinking? Nino: ...That's hard to answer. Nino: Because you don't know what you were thinking.Nino: Seriously, what are you so…

Reed: Before anything else, make sure she's real.

30-Apr-2023
...It looks like she might be real, considering how fiercely protective Ludwig is of her. And how fiercely protective she is of Boyfriend, too. For one thing, the real deal would've never left them behind, nor have shown Five her weak side. But could a spirit fool those animals too? Really, is it going to be the same trick twice in a row? You can't risk letting your guard down, but man... this is getting old. Aria: Whew... ah.Aria: Are you okay, Five...?Reed: Hold it.Reed: Don't get any closer. End encounter. Aria: Oh, wait, wait, umm... I'm real!Aria: I can prove that to you, with the disguise...Aria: See? I can control yours!Five: Whoa... it's true...!Reed: Oh. Well, I guess you've kind of already proved it.Reed: I don't believe those two…

Reed: Follow but question him.

16-Apr-2023
You wonder if you're being too paranoid. After all, you've just met a spirit that looked like someone you trusted. But then again... would a spirit really kill its own? Reed: ...Wait, Five.Five: Huh...?Reed: Don't follow him just yet. Nino: What's wrong?Reed: Nino. I have an important question.Reed: How do you know where Aria ended up?Nino: Oh! Umm... Reed: You don't see why one spirit would kill another, but it's also suspicious that he would know where Aria is. Nino: I figured it out from our exiting order in the rift.Nino: Our physical locations don't seem to matter, Reed,Nino: But rather, it's who leaves before who.Nino: Aria ended up more to the south because she left first.Nino: You left after, so you've ended up somewhere between me and her...Reed: What.Reed:…

Meimona: Wait, was he always this stubborn?

Meimona: Huh? Um... look!Meimona: Maybe it's possible to come down, since you're here now...Meimona: But it doesn't mean going back up is also possible, right?Meimona: We should be careful!Yuness: Mona.Yuness: Don't you trust me?Meimona: What? Of course I do!Meimona: But I've made sure that I can't go back up multiple times, so...Meimona: Let's not be reckless! Meimona: It would be bad if we waste our divinity by flyi-Yuness: That's ENOUGH, you annoying child!Meimona: ...W...wuh?Yuness: You seriously don't trust your own brother?Meimona: W-what? No, I do!Meimona: But you're talking like you don't trust me!Meimona: I told you I tested it already, so why don't you believe me?Meimona: Without any divinity, we won't ever go home, Yuness...Meimona: It's not worth risking it! Yuness?: She's not as gullible as she seems, y'know. Yuness:…

Aria: Combat!?

Aria: Oh my gosh! Mei...?Meimona: Whew! I finally caught up to you!Meimona: There were so many dangerous beasts back there!Meimona: Are you okay, Aria?Aria: Yes, I'm fine!Aria: More importantly, Meimona... you made it!Aria: I can't believe it, I'm so happy to see you again!Meimona: Haha, likewise!Aria: Were you hurt at all!?Meimona: Nope! I landed on the soft snow. Meimona: I owe it all to my incredible luck. :3Meimona: I'll be real though, ummm... Meimona: It was scary being alone for a while there...Meimona: But you know who I found!?Meimona: That's right: Nino!Aria: Oh, oh my...!Meimona: Mhm! We should hurry up and meet with him...Meimona: Before any more bad things show up! Aria: Interrogate. -/-/-/-> It talks like her, it acts like her... But there's no way that's her. Just look…

Meimona: Flashback.

Right... your family. Your siblings are the children of Nadine, the master of the Birdnest, a large system of farmlands in the overworld. Just like her, they're nothing short of impressive. Your eldest sister, Layla Aquila, often went hunting in faraway places. She'd bring back plenty of spoils, and delicious prey from nebulae in the depths of space! But you never knew how she found her way through the sandy clouds of the overworld. And Meitham Grus, your eldest brother, was always willing to take you anywhere you wanted in the sky. In fact, he'd frequently escort every other sibling of yours on their outings too. He's simply that dependable of a brother! Yet, you never asked how he could find the way home so consistently. Siblings are meant to…

Be Meimona.

You are now Meimona. You have no idea where you are. Meimona: What do you see? Sand. A sea of pale gold, stretching as far as the eye can see. It is reminiscent of the overworld, of... Your home. -/-/-/-> But that can't be where you are! After all, you can still make out the lining of the barrier. Unfortunately, it seems that you remain a caged bird. But in which part of the cage did you end up...? Meimona: Can you tell where you are? That sandy mountain you tumbled from... that's where the rift was. It is as if you crossed over from an unintended direction. Maybe this is a place in the monster world, then? The sunlight here is certainly brighter than anywhere you've been to in…

Be Nino.

25-Mar-2023
You fail to be Nino. Try as you might, you simply cannot. For you see, it's still not the right time for that. So instead, you go back to being Reed. There's no escaping this situation just yet. Reed: Engage in COMBAT. Five: Reed!Five: R-Reed's bleeding!Reed: I'm fine.Reed: Stay behind me. Of all times to run into a goddamn beast. The sly thing crept up on you. It must've been stalking for a while, just looking for an opening to strike. No matter. You'll take care of this swiftly. Reed: Attack. Your wind cannon barely does anything to stop this thing. This calls for more destructive measures... Rimehound: Attack. Even though you wouldn't want to risk alerting any monsters nearby with something loud, you've left with no other choice. Reed:…

You are now Reed. You've just managed to squeeze through a rift. And someone's here with you. Reed: ...Are you hurt?Five: No...Five: That's Five's question to Reed!Five: Five fell, but Reed protected Five...Five: Is Reed hurt?Reed: ...No. Don't worry, this is nothing.Five: Sorry, Reed...Reed: It's fine.Reed: Look. I can move around just fine, can't I?Five: But, but... Reed: Do something to reassure her. Five: Whoa!Reed: See.Reed: Didn't I say I'm fine?Five: Reed is... so strong!Five: Reed can lift Five so high up!Reed: That's right.Reed: Nothing's going to hurt me.Reed: So you have nothing to be scared of.Five: Wow... Five can see everything from here!Five: Snow, lots of snow...Five: And a lot of red.Reed: That's frozen water. Don't let the color scare you.Reed: Hang on... is my disguise on, Five?Five: Oh...…

Be Aria.

You are now Aria. Aria: Check surroundings. You've just painfully tumbled down a hill. Beneath you is a layer of... snow? Soft enough to lessen the impact of your fall, but not enough that it didn't hurt at all. Still, it wasn't painful enough to disrupt your focus. Your disguise remains in effect. Aria: Can you tell where exactly you are, and if the others are with you? A landscape of snowy mountains. Hardly any sunlight, even though it's morning. And in the distance, you see that familiar tower again... It looks like you've made it to the other side. But... what about everyone else? Aria: Look for the others. Aria: Nino?Aria: Mei? Meimona...?Aria: F-Five...? Reed?Aria: Where are you...? No response but the cold, harsh wind. You take a look…

Lune: Report Kaji's status.

11-Mar-2023
Selene: ...Oh. You're concerned about that. Selene: Ok, uhm, I guess you've never been drunk before, have you...Selene: Don't worry, we can keep your beautiful innocence intact, Selene: Since you have lil' ol' me here to tell you aaaall about it!Selene: Anyways. It's different from person to person.Selene: Sure, a glass of water after waking up may sober him up with less of a headache, but I doubt you need to be there to do anything, ultimately. Selene: Someone used to drinking this much knows how to deal with it on their own.Selene: Besides, if you're gonna pretend to not have seen anything anyways...Selene: Then you don't wanna be there when he wakes up! -/-/-/-> Lune: ...So you've already known about Kaji's drinking habits.Lune: I guess it was only me…

Suvillan: Discuss with Corona.

Suvillan: I'm not certain, but...Suvillan: I believe that I just felt a disturbance.Corona: You mean by the barrier?Suvillan: Yes. Perhaps a human dares intrude on my domain again.Corona: Oh, jeez! Today of all days?Corona: You're kidding me.Suvillan: It was faint, so I can't say for sure.Suvillan: But still... -/-/-/-> Suvillan: ...I was under the impression that this matter was dealt with.Suvillan: Was I wrong, Corona? Whoa! He's mad! He's really mad! You're his best friend, and he's THIS mad at you based on an unconfirmed hunch!? What are the chances that a human really crossed the barrier again? Furthermore, what are the chances that it's the same human from before? That blonde girl with the blue eyes... -/-/-/-> No, there's no way. That's a ridiculous idea. If that human escaped,…
