[ the audio recording opens up with someone breathing heavily. Not the kind of panting that follows physical exercise, but an uneven, stuttered sort that belies disbelief. shock. ]


...It's tomorrow. It's tomorrow. Ohhh dip, oh dip, oh--heck. Dip. Dip dip diiip, it's really here. Ahahaha...ha...haha...ahhh... It didn't end. It didn't end and it didn't start over and the sky didn't melt and it's tomorrow...!

Please tell me you guys noticed--it's not just me noticing this right?? Someone answer me and tell me you noticed!


[ this may seem like a bit of an odd thing to post on the network but L I S T E N. When you've been trapped in a 13-day time loop for 186.604 years, Tomorrow^TM really matters. Nenonen's, like, ready to hyperventilate here SOMEONE CONFIRM THIS IS TOMORROW PLS?? ]

Magic again huh.
What about time being messed up when there isn't magic?

[kaientai]

Hmmm... I suppose there's probably another way to do it. With technology, maybe? But I wouldn't know the first thing about any of that. Is that what happened in your world?

[essenceborn]

Yeah. Everything happens for thirteen days, then the world goes black and everything starts over from the first day again.

[kaientai]

Any chance you got transported into a simulation or something? I've seen that happen before.

In any case, congratulations! It's the future!

[essenceborn]

Definitely not a simulation. Very sure.

[ Nen's world doesn't have VR/holographic technology, so the sort of simulation needed to recreate the end of the world would involve a lot of turning actual people into goop, cloning them, then gooping them again.

Nen is pretty sure that is not what happened.

Still, though... ]

The future.

[kaientai]

The future!

This is when you try out all sorts of new things and make a lot of mistakes until you figure out what you should do with yourself. You don't even live here, so what's the harm in not getting it right the first time? You'll learn stuff about yourself you didn't know before!

[ ryouma remembers when he was younger and discovering a lot of possibilities in a world that was a lot different from the very limited one he was used to. he can't help but be excited at the idea of someone else having that experience. ]
