Hi everyone! This is Riku Nanase!

I know we've all been worried about everything going on, but even though it's important to find a cure, thinking about something else for a little while might bring our spirits up. > <

So I wanted to ask if anyone who showed up here in the first group (3 months ago) had anyone they know come here last month! And if any of you did, did they say you'd been missing?

When my brother and another friend of ours showed up last month, even though I'd already been gone for two months, they told me they didn't realize I was missing at all! So whether it's magic or time working differently or something, unless it's just me, we might not have to worry about everyone back home thinking we've been gone for months!

Being here isn't always easy, but if that's true, then it makes me feel a lot better. So I hope it helps make some of you feel better too! We're supposed to be staying positive, so even if it's hard, let's try to think about good things like this!!!

the last thing he remembered he was checking in to his dorm at the academy

No one from my home has come here, but it’s a relief to hear that no time is passing. I’ve got a lot of things going on there.

[doublesharp]

Wait, you have a whole year of memories that he doesn't remember at all? So to him, you're like a psychic that can see the future!

But that doesn't make any sense either... Because if he'd come here and then gone back like everything was normal, in your future, all of this would have already happened! Or something like that? Or maybe whoever brought us here make him forget a year of memories?

Ahhhhhh! This is way too confusing!!! >

[doublesharp]

Dextera-san!!

I'm sure everyone has a lot of people that would worry about them if they went missing! So even if I can't say that time isn't passing back home for anyone no matter what, I think it's okay to assume that it isn't!

Learning that took a huge weight off my shoulders, so I hope it helps you just as much!!!

[passio]

It does help.

What’s your home like, anyway? I’ve heard you sing before, but I don’t think I know anything else.

I hope it's true! I was worried about how things were going back home, without anyway to contact our friends and families after being gone for so long.

I'm not sure if it's magic, but I've heard from another friend that time runs differently between here and the world he comes from, too.

[ Tenn is making the most complicated exasperated-fond expression at his computer, so it's a good thing that the network is text only, because he definitely doesn't want anyone to ever see him making it. ]

There's a chance that people might come from our "future" or past, from what I've heard. We were lucky that we all seemed to remember the same things.

[ Tenn has definitely imagined what would have happened if he'd shown up a year earlier. Boy, that would have been unpleasant, if he and Riku's relationship didn't line up. ]

[doublesharp]

I'm really glad!

Ummm... I guess it's pretty normal, compared to most people here? There's no magic or superheroes (not real ones, anyway) or special powers or anything. So I'm still getting used to everything that people can do here!

How about yours? It's fun to learn about where everyone's from!

[doublesharp]

Midoriya-kun!!! Wouldn't that be great? I was always hoping we'd figure out some way to send a message back home and let them know we're okay, but we don't need to worry about that anymore! Or at least I don't think so!

Time runs differently? You mean that it's faster or slower than what he's used to? Since there are people from all over, it makes sense that not everyone would be the same...

[doublesharp]

[Don't get too comfortable yet. They're only one room apart, and it would be easy enough for Riku to burst through Tenn's door without any pretenses. Be thankful that he's polite enough to knock if it's shut!]

Tenn-nii!!!

If things like that can happen, then it's a miracle that we all have the same memories! I don't know what I'd do if you'd forgotten everything that's happened until now!

I don't think I'd be able to keep myself from telling you everything... But you probably wouldn't believe me. > <

[passio]

My world was similar to yours, for a long time. Things have changed recently, but it’s still hard for me to understand that some people just have magic, and it’s “normal” to them.

[doublesharp]

[Changed recently, huh.... Well, he won't push the subject, but colour him curious.]

Right? I think so too! I keep wanting to describe where I'm from as "normal", but if everyone's "normal" is different, that doesn't help at all!

It's pretty amazing to see what everyone here can do, though!

me n saru showed up at the same time but it was the same for us

the thing he says he remembers last happened a few hours before what i remember last

i thought he just his his head tho

[recommending]

Maybe it's like that book, where decades passed in one world and only seconds did in another.

That might make going back confusing.

[passio]

[ the apocalypse changes things in a big way… unfortunately! ]

Ha ha. I still think it’s normal not to have abilities. I’m almost envious of people who lead lives like that.

[inheritance]

I still think we should wait until we have more examples before we fully believe it's true, but it's definitely a good sign!

In my friend's case, it was faster. He said months had passed back home, but only a few days had passed here.

[doublesharp]

[Guess who has absolutely no idea that Saru = Fushimi = that guy who was bleeding really badly? This guy right here.]

A few hours isn't a long time at all!

But if it was only that much, did something important happen in those couple of hours? I never thought to get super in detail about it, but maybe it's something like that for me too.

[doublesharp]

Oh! I know which one you're talking about!!! It really is kind of like we're in a fantasy novel, isn't it?

Do you read a lot of books, Yaotome-san?

[doublesharp]

Yeah, you're probably right... But it doesn't hurt to try being positive! That's one of our quests this month, after all!

Wait... Does that mean he went back home?!?!

[inheritance]

Definitely! I don't think being hopeful about the circumstances back home is a bad thing.

Yeah, he did! It's Keith-kun. I can give you his hex code if you want to ask him about it?

[doublesharp]

Me too! When I was little, I always wanted to be brave and strong like a superhero!

Ehehe... It sounds kind of silly now that I'm older, though.

[doublesharp]

I wish we had stickers or emotes to put in our messages, but imagine that I sent something with a cute "let's do our best" pose!!

So it was Keith-kun! I'll have to ask him about it sometime! If he's okay with talking to me about it, I mean.

[inheritance]

My friends and I have been using kaomojis!

Let's do our best, Nanase-kun! ╭( ･ㅂ･)و ✧


It doesn't hurt to ask!

[doublesharp]

You can make them on laptops and not just phones?!?! Hold on, let me try!

[AKA "let me call Tenn-nii in the room and have him help me figure out other keyboards."]

٩( •̀ω•́)و ✧✧✧✧✧✧✧

[inheritance]

Yeah! It took a little while to figure out, but you can switch to Japanese keyboards in the settings.

You got it!! o(^◇^)o

I just taught one of my friends how to make them, too!
