After the event; Text; UN: cooledition

[force_a_change]

[Someone who is new here has gotten a bit of a surprise, and not just the recent insanity either. Mostly the fact that she can't do certain things she's always been able to do.

So she's going to the network to ask a vital question.]

⊙△⊙

I have a minor question to ask of you all, but mostly people here who have powers from home. It's a silly question, really, but it's been bothering me since the whole unfortunate events that went down.

[Get to the point, Asakura!]

Anyway, my question is this; have any of you lost access to a skill or power or ability you had before you ended up here?

[She isn't going to pry.]

It sounds interesting, at least.

[terribletwos]

yeah, it's definitely interesting. it's weird not to be able to do it whenever i want. i used to do it every day.

[force_a_change]

So it is something that you could do as simple as breathing, it comes that naturally to you?

[terribletwos]

i wouldn't say it comes naturally. i had to learn how to do it. and i have to think about it. but aside from that, it was mostly regular.

[force_a_change]

I see, still it sounds interesting to be able to do.

[terribletwos]

i guess it's not really needed here since we can't leave.

[ For better or or worse. ]

[force_a_change]

True, and also unfortunate.

[Not that she has any way to leave the planet.]

[terribletwos]

is there something important you have to do back in your world/

[ At least he doesn't have to worry about that much. All that he needs from his own are his friends. ]

[force_a_change]

No, fortunately. I had finished dealing with the situation that I was needed for but... It would have been nice to be able to see the outcome of it.

[terribletwos]

i know how that feels. my friends and me just finished dealing with some things too.

[force_a_change]

Well, that's good isn't it? At least you don't have anything from home to worry about while you're here.

[terribletwos]

yeah, it is. but i still wish we could all be here.

[ He honestly doesn't care where he ends up, as long as his friends are around. Home is still a nebulous concept to him. ]

[force_a_change]

I... see. I guess having friends here would be nice.

[terribletwos]

what about you/ do you have anyone here/

[force_a_change]

I don't believe anyone from my world is here, aside from me that is.

[That's a long way to say that she doesn't have anyone here.]

[terribletwos]

that has to be difficult, figuring everything out on your own.

[force_a_change]

It's not too hard, thankfully I'm pretty adaptable! ᕦ༼ ~ •́ ₒ •̀ ~ ༽ᕤ

[terribletwos]

oh, you use them too.

[force_a_change]

Hm? Use what?

[terribletwos]

the emoticons. torako told me about them.

[force_a_change]

Oh yes, they're kind of popular back home.

[terribletwos]

i never saw them before here.

[force_a_change]

I'm guessing you don't have cell phones in your world then? Or the internet?

[terribletwos]

i don't know about the internet but we have something called a gummiphone.

[force_a_change]

"Gummiphone"? That sounds like something out of a cartoon.
