I mean, it's very in character for him to end up in the one with the most embarrassing name.

[ haha... ]

...Anyway, it sounds like everyone came out of that one okay in the end too. And he's fine in my world, this must have been a different version of him or something.

[ despite how concerning it is, that does make him snort a laugh. ]

That seems to be a whole thing - different versions of ourselves, at least for some of us. I wonder if it's some weird timeline stuff again.

...The one good thing about all this is that it rarely stays bad in the end. And they did say it'd be the same here, as long as we hit those "milestones" they keep going on about.

Yeah, I'm honestly less worried than pissed off this time.

[ it seems like there are a lot fewer unknowns here compared to the cult bullshit, and scripted situations are something he can mostly deal with.

takes a sip of his coffee. ]

You hear how we were apparently both part of that spaceship one?

[ nods in understanding. ]

Same here. Like, how can have they say this is a team game and not let me be with my team? Seriously messed up.

[ he can shut up about this literally anytime ]

...They didn't tell me that you were there, too. How many different games have all of us been in that we don't even remember?

[ i think he's just figuring he means like a sports team from home or something... ]

Yep. At this point I definitely wouldn't be surprised if there were more. Kasuga-san was actually in mine too, but he doesn't remember any of that... he just knows the version of me from the spaceship.

[ sighs. ]

Wish they'd just brought that version of me instead to simplify things. Leave this me out of it.

[ though actually he'd kind of feel bad about kate in that case... ]

Yeah, it’s like that with Mizuki, too. She was in our game, but she was a kid, then? And this Mizuki only remembers the Eudora, too. It’s really weird.

[ this spaceship really made this way trippier than this whole thing needs to be. ]

I dunno. I wouldn’t wish this on any version of me.
