[VIDEO. Natsuo can be seen lounging on his couch in his townhome (see icon). He yawns, stretches, rests his hands behind his head...]

Lame. If I actually lived here, I wouldn't just be some kid in town. I would be much better than that.

Hey, was that supposed to scare us or something? Even the zombies were scarier than that, and they weren't even scary.

[... He does narrow his eyes a bit at that thought, and his ear twitches... but he shakes his head and banishes those sorts of thoughts.]

Where is everyone? Are we closer to going home yet?

You really don't find some strange shift in our memories the slightest bit disturbing?

[Because Willis definitely finds that unnerving. Sure, there things he'd rather forget about, but noooot like that.]

[painlessfighter]

No, it's mostly just stupid. It's like we had no choice but to be actors for roles. That's all.

[summerdoor]

Actors choose their roles. We didn't.

[painlessfighter]

That's what I said! And it's still stupid. But it wasn't real, so it's not worth it to complain about it. It's just another reason to hurt the one who's doing this, and to get out of here!

[summerdoor]

At least we agree on that much.

[... although he really doesn't share Natsuo's indifference towards the event.]

Doesn't change the fact that we thought it was real. What if that happens again - and it ends up not going away?

[painlessfighter]

They haven't done anything twice so far. I don't think they'd do it again.

[Heee's pretty sure Willis is going to bring it up anyway. So.] But if they did? Then I guess we couldn't do anything about it. Except see if it wears off. That might be a good thing about the voices at those places from our home. [Light bulb moment!] Ah! We could just go there! And think about home!
