Contemplating percaligovideo.

Okay, seriously, I've gotta ask. Just what kind of weird-ass senpai did you name me after? You've been snickering for half the week about this. Not exactly a nice thing to wake up to.

That's not even my biggest complaint! What kind of place do you think you're sending me to? I've had enough of supernatural mysteries! Enough! Couldn't we compromise on some nice freaky sex island somewhere? I don't even mind aging up or anything. No, it's not 'cause I wanna get taller. Shut up.

... And what do you mean you're taking me from the worst possible canon point?!

[OOC: Canon is Another (novel). Will avoid spoilers.]

Complaining isn't going to help. Mundanes don't listen to us, no matter how loud you are.

[anotheryosuke]

You never know! All mundanes are different, right? It's better than sitting around doing nothing, waiting for my doom.

[It's half-serious, but there's at least half.]

[ex_circular636]

The louder you are, the more likely yours is going to put you somewhere. I've never heard of a game that would be pleasant to live in.

[Just a look, Teshi. It says, "You're an idiot."]

[anotheryosuke]

[Is it sad that he's so used to those looks he barely even registers them anymore....]

No, I'm pretty sure she's already made up her mind about the 'putting' part. And it's not like I wanna sit around gathering dust. But I mean, even something a little pleasant would be fine.

[There are a lot of places that are better than back home, honestly...]

[handgirlfriend]

Mundanes are just assholes.

[anotheryosuke]

Dunno if I'd go that far yet, but they don't listen too well, huh? I keep telling mine there's so many better places, but it's like talking to a wall. Or an honor student.

[handgirlfriend]

[Seiji knows exactly what the honor student shtick feels like, so that does arise a snicker from him.]

Mundanes, brick walls, and Ayase all have one thing in common. They just don't know how to listen.

[anotheryosuke]

[He grins. Always nice to find a kindred spirit.]

Right? It's practically a conspiracy! So, what'd yours do?

[Which thing of 'yours' he's talking about remains ambiguous.]

[handgirlfriend]

[Seiji's going to assume that he meant both Ayase and his mundane.]

My mundane hasn't done anything yet, apart from have the want to throw me into some freaky 1950s town in America and into some other freaky rural town in Japan.

Ayase is just confusing a lot of the time and never listens when it comes to school rules.

[anotheryosuke]

[That works!]

Are there even any places to go that aren't freaky? [He laughs, a touch nervously.] What a coincidence, man. I'm stuck with small-town Japan, too.

Hell, I even listen to school rules! Kazami's the one who can't figure out how to enforce 'em properly. Now there's irony for you.

[handgirlfriend]

What's the name of the town? [Genuine Seiji curiosity right there.] And Ayase's rule enforcing is just too much. I don't hate the rules but damn if I don't hate the way she tries to uphold them!

[anotheryosuke]

Inaba or something? Nothing I've ever heard of. Though it sounds like she's changed her mind by now. Bad listener and bad decision maker.

[Sigh.]

You know? I wish I could borrow your Ayase for a bit. Anything's better than having someone wishy-washy try to be in charge.

[handgirlfriend]

You can have her. And wait, Inaba...? That sounds like one of the same places my Mundane is trying to send me.

[anotheryosuke]

Thanks! I'll return her in one piece, promise.

[Joking aside...]

Seriously? It's a small world even out here, huh? Mine just got a split-second bright idea to saddle me with cat ears instead. Of all things.

I think I give up.
