[ nani. ]

I got thrown in jail once cause I told a cop to go fuck herself, and then I almost died cause she wanted to keep me to teach me a lesson and I only had a few hours left on my curse.

[ ...akira pls ]

Kijima...

What? I really just wanted to tell her she was a fucking dumbass who was gonna kill her only witness but I wound up telling her about spirits being real instead.

And... how did that end up for you?

I'm here, aren't I?

Ah, I mean, did telling her about spirits end up helping you?

Yeah, she actually believed me somehow and let me go on the condition she came with me. And then she died three times cause she's a dumbass who thinks she knows best.

[ Yes, three times. ]

... Well, I'm glad it worked out.

[ he's actually kind of interested to experience some of this stuff ]

You're not gonna ask how she kept killing herself?

I'm curious but also don't feel like asking about how someone died just yet.

[ Fair, but- ]

She's still alive.

That's even better.

[ He didn't ask but Akira is going to say it anyway. ]

It was a time traveling elevator. [ This is why nothing here is actually that weird. ]

--What's an elevator?

You don't have those? It's uh, a moving platform that goes up and down so you can get to high places easily.

Oh, we had something like that to get horses over the walls.

They were just called lifts.

Yeah, that's pretty much the same thing but elevators are more for people I guess.

[ ... ]

We're really from different places, huh.

We are, but it's not so bad.

I like hearing about the things you have that I don't.

[ Bertolt why you gotta word it like that! Thankfully Akira doesn't notice. ]

Did you get to see what Kings was like on this side?

[ he's learned that about him ]

I did.

Tokyo's kinda similar, it's a city, but Kings seemed more like New York or what I've heard of it anyway.

...I've never been outside Tokyo until all of this.

Tokyo looks like it'll be nice then.

--This must have been quite an experience for you then.

[ Nods. ]

Yeah, but I kinda just wanna sleep for a week after all this. [ He's tempted to just sleep right here tbh? A yawn. ]

Same honestly.

[ looks at him ]

Are you tired?

I could sleep. [ Yes. ]

You?
