Voice Testing for Dotach-- er, Kadota.

[dota_chin]

. . . I feel out of place here, in some ways. 

[And then-]

Wait, what, really?  In the subject line?  

You of all people shouldn't be calling me that.

[lovemantra]

[Hey, she feels pretty much the same. Maybe they should start a club.]

They..."muns" are usually like that.

[dota_chin]

I'm pretty sure she did it on purpose.

[A pause.]

You look really familiar.

[lovemantra]

[Anri doesn’t want to badmouth his mun, but. Yeah, probably.]

Oh, I’m a friend of Kida-kun.

[dota_chin]

[Oh right; the bunny.]

It's been a little while.

[lovemantra]

[She nods.]

I hope everything is alright.

[rewritereality]

[And squee in stereo, from mun and muse, in 3-2-]

DOTACHIIIIIIIIN!

[dota_chin]

[And there is no surprise here.]

You too, hm?

That's not my name.

[Tch.]

[rewritereality]

[Like she is ever going to listen to him on that front]

I can't believe you're actually here! Do you have any idea how long I've been waiting for any of you guys to show up?

[dota_chin]

My mun says to say sorry, even though I didn't do anything.

[Mun just finished the series . . . ]

At least I'm her favorite.

[rewritereality]

Tell your mun it's okay. It's just, my mun and I are so excited that you're here. I told her we shouldn't give up hope just yet!

[Van gang as mun favourites unite!]

[dota_chin]

I think that's why I feel so out of place.

There just aren't many around.

[Yesss]

[rewritereality]

You get used to it. I've been around for about three months now and, well, once you find a home or two it's almost like it doesn't matter.

[Almost. Except when mun decrees it does]

[dota_chin]

So you have a place then, Karisawa?

[They are inseparable. ]

[rewritereality]

Mhm. Two, actually, though for one of them I'm technically still in Ikebukuro. Has your mun thought about sending you anywhere yet?

[dota_chin]

Hard to find a good place, but I think so.

[rewritereality]

Oh well if you do end up going somewhere, let me know. I might be able to prod my mun into letting me come with you.

[dota_chin]

I don't think I'll be telling you anything if you keep calling me that name.

[Pff.]

[rewritereality]

Oh come on. If I didn't call you that, you'd wonder what was wrong with me.

[Hey, she's the nicknamer. It's her job to use nicknames]

[dota_chin]

I-

[It's true. She's right.]

Doesn't mean you have to do it, anyway.

[rewritereality]

Who says I'm doing it because I have to?

[Mostly she does it because of those reactions right there]

[dota_chin]

It's not like it's a surprise, but at least you admit it.

[What reactions? Hmph.]

[rewritereality]

Why wouldn't I? Anyway, it's one of the few things I've heard Izayan say that doesn't make me want to stab sharp pointy things in his eye.

[She's having...issues with the Izaya in one of her games. Most of which are her own fault]

[dota_chin]

You mean there's more than one thing like that?

[Just a bit of sarcasm.]

[rewritereality]

Sure. I mean, admittedly less of them now I actually get to talk to him but who knows. Maybe it's only a matter of time before he makes up for it.

[dota_chin]

His 'making up for it' will probably make someone else unhappy.

[He's known the guy since they were in high school.]

[rewritereality]

Probably. I mean, even his girlfriend...or. No, girlfriend's not the right word. The tsundere who owns him even though she doesn't like him. And honestly, now I know him better I sorta see why.

[The island's giving her a good education on that, and he's already got the making Erika unhappy act down pretty well]

[dota_chin]

Owns?

[How is that even possible. Izaya always does what he wants.]

[rewritereality]

Yeah, I was kinda surprised by it myself but she's pretty adamant about it.

[Of course, Izaya still does what he wants but Erika only has parts of the story]

[dota_chin]

[After a moment, he'll shrug with a barely-there grin.]

He probably deserves it.

[rewritereality]

[That draws a giggle from her]

Probably. I have to admit, having him as the only other person from Ikebukuro around isn't as fun as I thought it might be.
