[ Hisoka has found something to entertain himself with, and that entertainment will probably only last for a few days at best. ]

Um, this is a little embarrassing to bring up at this point, but...

I've actually met so many people here in another world. I didn't know how to talk about it to them, so I just acted like we were meeting for the first time. I wonder, was that wrong? Should I reach out to the people that I knew?

But ... a lot of them did terrible things in that other world... would it be better if they never knew what happened?

[ Which is to say, he didn't realize the potential of fun to be had in pretending he knew people from another world when he has only ever traveled to this one. ]

I think I'd be tempted to tell them.

[nobodylikeshim]

Why???

The circumstances that I came from were difficult. I'm sure that they wouldn't do the things that they did there. So....... why tell them what happened???

[penpoint]

Because I'd want to know something about me. Seems rude to hide things you know about someone from them.

[nobodylikeshim]

[ Hmmm, hmm, hmm!! ]

Ok...
Then...okay. I met you in another world.

[ What would be the funniest? ]

We were brought to fight a war. That's why everyone...... you had taken over a city and controlled everyone to fight for you as you sat on a throne out of harm's way. It was really, really scary.... you wouldn't do that here. I know you wouldn't. You see! It isn't the same.

[ He turns his head and lets out a sharp laugh. ]

[penpoint]

You can tell who I am just from my screenname, anon? It means we've probably met before.

[nobodylikeshim]

Not only that, but I saw you post a few times, too.
I'm sorry I didn't say anything sooner. I wasn't sure what to say.......

[penpoint]

I'm sure you are very sorry. Well, it's fine. That sounds about right for me.

[ Rohan-sensei, be a little more aghast. ]

[nobodylikeshim]

Ehhhh?

[ Hisoka pauses to wonder what the anon is that he's pretending to be. He just kind of went with it. But now that he's thinking about it, he's seeing himself as a young teenage girl.

Wait a second... ah, he's starting to see where he messed up. A girl like the one he's pretending to be that was brought to another world to fight in a war, would probably be a little less starry-eyed upon coming to a new world and meeting people that had tried to kill her.

... Well, shit. ]

[penpoint]

Eh? What's that supposed to mean?

[nobodylikeshim]

I'm surprised that you agree.

[penpoint]

Well, it's not like I can argue it, right?

[nobodylikeshim]

Guess not.

Still, anything that you want to know about what happened in that other world?

If you're friends with them here, then give them the choice of whether they want to know or not. If you don't really talk to them here, then don't bother. There's no need to make things weird for them.

[nobodylikeshim]

[ UNACCEPTABLE ANSWER. He will drum up fun however he wants!!!!! ]

Maybe...
I've been wanting to live differently now that I'm in this place.
Maybe letting go of all that will be a good way to do it..........

[sheisthewind]

[Sorry Hisoka, she's too blunt and gives too few fucks.]

Probably. This world is an easy one to live in. You might as well take advantage of the freedom you have here and do something you've always wanted to but didn't get to try before.

[nobodylikeshim]

Right?
I feel like I'm returning to who I was.
Going to a world at war was really scary.
Everyone acted scary, too.
So being in this world... I'm sure... they won't become such people, again.

[ Hisoka snaps his fingers as he figures out who the person he's pretending to be is!! A otome protagonist!! Every-day girl with nothing in her head but beloved for her cute-pure-self. Ah, so, that's how it is. ]

[sheisthewind]

It's peaceful here and it's easy to get money from generating Chroma, and there are plenty of people who will volunteer to spar, so the only people who are going to do horrible things are the people who would do them no matter what the circumstances.

[penpoint]

Did I ever give you a reason why I was doing it? I mean, I suppose that means something could be changed, after all.

[nobodylikeshim]

Because you decided that....... you wanted to rule the world.

[ Pffffffffffffffft!!!! ]

[nobodylikeshim]

Yes, I think so, too.
Everyone has seemed so kind.
Sometimes I get so scared that they'll suddenly change.
But that hasn't happened.
War really did make them all lose their minds, huh?

[ Crying big, big moe tears. ]

[sheisthewind]

Look at it like this. You've seen what they're capable of becoming in hard times, but unless war breaks out here, they probably won't turn out like that here.

[nobodylikeshim]

Maybe.
Um, Kagura...
Thank you.

[ This heroine is so cute, right, right? The next time that he does this, he thinks that he'll be himself. But somehow, he turned into a cute girl this time around. Ah, well, it isn't like he put that much thought into what he's doing. ]

[sheisthewind]

You're welcome.

[Now she's kind of curious...]

Did you know me on that world?

[nobodylikeshim]

Yes, I did...
Does that make things weird for you?

[ Hisoka suddenly wonders -- how many times can he say that he knows someone until someone thinks he's full of shit? ]
