Because there is nothing more wonderful to me than learning about the experiences and lives of others - and seeing the ways different cultures have developed. Finding the ways that we are all similar to each other, or wildly different, too!- is one of the best things there could be.
[ hands clasped together in delight - real princess aura here ]
I am a historian, after all! At least by hobby. And besides...if I make new friends, then, I'd like to learn about their lives, too.

[ fuckin bleak man
taair is... here, at the beach, standing now near where they were checking the walls yesterday - he reaches out to touch the spot where once was a wall, and his hand goes right through. he then looks at mizu. ]
...How in the world could this have happened...?

Whatever was preventing us from leaving must have disappeared after we fell asleep.
[the whole falling asleep thing is a problem in itself. but not as much as their very dead sweet charlie.]
As for the rest, we'll have to wait until tomorrow to ask our questions. Saying she was unresponsive is too vague.

Yes, so it seems... I must say, it seems...unlikely that it merely...happened.
[ what's the politest way to say shit is sus ]

Isn't that the truth. [ the radiant's blessings sure are something. anyway. ] And that the Angels seemed just as surprised was worrying, to say the least...

I'm not entirely sure if they did, or if that was just a platitude...
[ considering the misfire ]
Either way - hopefully, we will hear more of it when the Angels return.

[ another friday.... another die day...
taair is... here! he's outside, somewhere, leaning against a wall, book in his lap, and looking in thought. he still looks Bad, all bandaged up, but he is sporting far fewer flower petals than he was yesterday, so...yay!
he absolutely does not notice mizu is coming until they are like, close - when he looks up, his eyes briefly widen, and then settle into a smile. quiet relief. ]
Mizu, hello.

[ baby bird energy is still real
unfortunate. he looks down at the flowers when mizu brings it up, and then nods - reaching for a flower to take it and pluck it free from his arm, wincing a little when he does. ]
Yes... though, I'm not sure if it's just residuals, or the week's strange changes... but it is a bit better than yesterday - one of the few things that is.

[ he looks uneasy briefly at that, nodding. ]
Yes, to say the least... [ ... ] I had hoped... I don't know. We all came back in such a state, I had wondered if we'd have the same problems we did the week prior, or not - right up until the doors closed on us last night.
[ and then it became very obvious it was going to be a murder night. yay. ] We have left one state of carnage, and walked to another.

[ yeah we are definitely outside. ]
An understatement... I am glad that I am no longer of the "mara-struck" if only because I fear it would have taken me over entirely today with all of that stress...
[ woof. ]
...In the end, many of the truths were laid bare - and I think that is the best we can really ask for.

[ yay! on this fine monday, mizu can find taair sitting in the garden near the koi pond. he's sitting with a book of some kind on his knees and appears to be either writing or drawing something, little bird halo bobbing up and down as he does.
his chao spots mizu first and waves, excitedly, and he looks up at the sound and then breaks into a smile. ]
Oh! Mizu, hello. This place is lovely, isn't it?

[ relaxed. what's wrong with you
no im kidding taair looks happy just to see it, warm in his smile before he looks down at the fish. ]
I thought so too. [ ... ] You told me you were from a fishing village before, right? Did you have fish like these...?

[wow. maybe this is an early sign that mizu is afflicted and you should kill me? much to think about.
mizu makes a face, a good chunk of that good mood instantly evaporating. scoffs.]
There was no place for beauty in that village. Only space for filth and squalor. The only fish worth anything were the ones you could eat or sell. [... looks at the koi again, thinking.] I bet they had ones like these in Edo. There was a big castle there, filled with useless, pretty things.

[ NOOOO!!!! it's fine ]
Useless, pretty things. [ there's a little huff, and he nods. ] That does sound about right...
Is Edo the capital, where you're from?

[ a little nod. ]
A place filled with useless, pretty things... and people who are in need. Some things, no matter the world, never change...
[ tch. social inequality. ]
I suppose everyone having access to experiences like these is part of why it is supposed to be paradise.
