[ Mikami is not okay. Granted, he hasn't been okay for 10 days now and most of that is not the fault of the strange alien planet he has suddenly been brought to, but being here isn't exactly helping either. He's gone through all the arrival procedures like sleepwalking and now he's spent a day or two just sitting in his apartment staring at nothing. A part of him still expects that this will all go away and he will finally fade into nothingness as he righteously should--- but that's not happening. He's still here, he's still breathing, and all of it is so so utterly wrong.
Mikami has never posted on the internet for advice before. That has always been the kind of lost and pathetic that happens to other people. He thinks about how low he's sunken and hits 'create account' on Prismagram. ]
I am dead. I have been made to understand that this is not the status quo. Why am I here then?
[ ... yeah, a very helpful post. He may be convinced to come off anon over the course of conversations, but that's a case-by-case thing. ]
▶ B. UN: mkmtr
[ Some time after that existential crisis is aired to the public, Mikami sits down and makes an actual personal account that he intends to use if needed be. He's not much of a social media person, never has been, but it seems useful to have in a place that is entirely unfamiliar. ]
Good afternoon.
I have recently settled in Lunatia after my initial arrival procedures. While I have been able to gain a wealth of information from officials and don't require immediate assistance, there are questions that I feel are better answered by other 'Moonblessed'. If you have a moment to spare, I would be grateful.
How well have you found your education from your old life to be valued in this city? For obvious reasons, we are without our certificates and cannot prove whatever degrees we may have obtained in the past. How would one go about having their academic status recognized?
Naturally, most knowledge would not carry over one on one, but there is still merit in being able to cite experience.

[ There is a guy in a suit slowly exploring Lunatia Level 2 and visibly cringing at every bit of colorful decor or bubbly pop music. He looks like he hasn't slept well in many days. He also looks kind of lost. You may approach him in any manner you see fit, just wildcard me. ]

You know, somebody was asking about this kind of thing one time
About dead people coming here
Did someone here tell you that you died?
no subject
I simply remember my own death as my last memory before coming here. I have now gathered this is less uncommon than I was initially lead to believe, but it's no less unsettling for it.
no subject
Are you happy to find yourself here though?
Alive?

[ He should probably be sorry for being such an incredible downer, but he really isn't in the mood to think about how his answers come off to strangers on the internet... ]
Death should be final, that is the nature of it. This is violating the very principle.
I won't waste this life I was given, but 'happy' is a vast overstatement.
no subject
I'm glad you won't waste it here though.
Maybe you can make this time a better time!
Do something you didn't get to!
no subject
This world is a strange place.
It's going to take some effort to find a place in this society, but I will put in all the effort necessary to contribute.
no subject
Even the weirdest of the bunch find the type of people they never thought they would here!
So you totally have a chance!
There's probably lots of others who find themselves alive here too but they can't find it in themselves to admit to it because it's weird that it happened at all!
As if just coming here isn't weird enough right?
no subject
If I split this experience into parts, even a part that is 1/6th as weird as my arrival here would still rank as the number 1 strangest thing I have ever experienced.
It's a very unwelcome disruption to an orderly life.
no subject
Every time I think I'm used to how things work here, I'm proven wrong.
This place throws things off so regularly I never know what to think!
no subject
I realize I'm attempting the impossibly by preparing for the unexpected, but I am still interested.
