[ he just. nods as lili says all this. ]

The only thing they all have in common is the killing. No one else has mentioned anything about the universe, either.

[preowned]

I think we can probably assume that what originally brought us to the village didn't bring us here.

So then that means... what? Was there someone else watching all of these groups of people?

[coastal]

[also i just realized she's met no one from grimm, someone please tell her anything about grimm]

If all those locations suddenly gained sentience, maybe this one did too?

[she's just going to

knock on the floor of the bus]

It sounds like everyone expected to return home... so something must've intercepted all of us. We still don't have any clue where the rest of our companions went if they aren't here.

[unfriendliest]

Everyone except the ones who were still dead.

[ he's watching the floor, occasionally glancing at the walls, just in case anything happens. ]

It's possible they managed to get home without us. Maybe they weren't chosen again, or maybe there's a limit to how many of us from each place can come here.

[preowned]

Hopefully they aren't in a similar situation. But even if they are, I'm sure they'll figure out how to handle things.

[ they have all been through murder, it's not like they aren't prepared ]

[coastal]

Oh. Who was supposed to still be dead? From the demon boat?

[she's actually curious, now she wants to interrogate them

but,,]

.... I hope Kaoru isn't somewhere like this without me....

[unfriendliest]

I don't know. He didn't explain any of it, just that he was dead and didn't get revived like we were.

...Even if they are someplace similar, they'll figure out, and so will we.

[preowned]

Right-- oh!

What do you two see when you look at who's driving?

[coastal]

[lili's first answer was kaoru since the locations text said that it could be someone from the last adventure who's gone now, but i'm erring on the side of caution and retconning in case i can't read:]

A friend from home - but I'm pretty sure it's just an illusion.

[unfriendliest]

Mitsutada.

[preowned]

The saniwa.

So, yes, I doubt they can be all these people at once.

[coastal]

Definitely not - so we can't trust what we see with our eyes either...

The board told me that where we're going will be better than where we were before, and there won't be killing there - but Roxas and Mikazuki didn't know that was inevitable at the village either.

[so like

what's left to trust]

[unfriendliest]

The board isn't trustworthy, either. Apparently it'll pretend to be someone else if you give it a chance.

...But it did say our swords might be wherever they're taking us.

[ so that's one small thing to hope for? ]

[preowned]

So, I guess we just have to prepare for wherever that location is...

[ hm... ]

We may need to talk as a group.

[coastal]

Isn't this—

[their group

before she realizes]

Oh, with your comrades? Or the whole bus?

[unfriendliest]

I don't think we could get everyone to work together so easily. It would be easier with the five of us.

[ he's just assuming lili will also be there ]

[preowned]

[ he doesn't want to actually organize a big meeting he's hoping someone else does (dick) ]

I doubt people would work together closely as a large group. But I'm sure everyone wants information, so everyone actually detailing the major points of what they had to do to end their misadventure should help.

But, we can have a smaller one among ourselves, too.

[coastal]

[lili doesn't think she has the charisma points for a big meeting but she'd still do one if she thought something important had to be said

anyway,]

It'd be nice to at least know what your comrades went through before this.

[unfriendliest]

[ well kara certainly isn't going to do it ]

All I know is that Yasusada died, too.

[preowned]

I know Tonbokiri had to deal with demons.

[ they later find out it was sex demons. ]

[coastal]

[i hate sex demons]

A meager start but a start.

[unfriendliest]

Did he say if he survived?

[preowned]

He did not say, no. But he also didn't seem like he wanted to talk too much about it.

[coastal]

It sounds like they got the worst of it, since they weren't able to revive the ones who died...

[and also the sex demons]

[unfriendliest]

[ a quiet, frustrated noise. ]

He's going to have to tell us more if we want a better idea of what's going on.
