Ryou had been going on a walk to clear his head of everything that had happened, being stuck in another version of The World and all, when he ran right into someone who looked like him. Well, mostly, at least. His hair was more white and something about his eyes seemed off, but... Otherwise? Identical.

Mia had been adventuring through an area, Elk at her side as usual. They’d been looking for Aromatic Grass, but now? Now she found something that interested her a little more in the moment.

Haseo had finally found Tri-Edge, the guy that had to be the host for the main body of the parasite known as AIDA. If he killed the host, it’d kill AIDA and finally... Finally Shino would wake up.

Tri-Edge.

That was all Haseo saw as he approached someone he thought was familiar. It didn’t even register for him that something about this guy didn’t look quite the same as the corpse-like guy he usually chased.

Ryou walked into the pet store he’d started visiting on regular occassion. For the pets there? Not exactly... They were cute, of course, but cuter? A pair of brothers that worked here...

Not that Ryou was great at making his attraction to these brothers clear. He kinda turned into a fumbling idiot when he ran into either of them... And today? Looked like they were taking a joint-lunch break.

Haseo had been nursing many a mental wound since a somewhat recent incident in which he’d ended up stuck in the game. The wounds weren’t exactly healing quickly, and as much as he hated to say it... It might be because he couldn’t confront it.

Kite and Azure Kite had been harder to find and come by since the incident and now? Now he felt the only way to really be able to move on was to find them and see them, face to face (or as face to face as he could with his PC)...

Haseo had thought dating Azure Kite meant no dealing with ‘the parents’ or anything when it came to his boyfriend... But it was pretty clear that wasn’t the case, actually. No, his boyfriend’s mom was a fucking goddess...
