Thirty-Fifth Reap → Action (Fourth Wall)

[Ragna doesn't like crowded places very much, so he does well to avoid the hell out of them. The problem is that it's proving difficult today, given that everywhere seems to be the epitome of crowded. Or at least most of the village.

He's so sure that it's so crowded that a concealment ars wouldn't even do him good, because he might end up getting walked over. Maybe he should try heading back home as soon as he can... because this sucks.

The annoyance is not easily hidden by this one.]

[...

He'll just take a detour. This girl's kind of annoying, so he can just take this turn around this corner and head on a trail towards the forest. Maybe he can be alone for once.]

[NOPE.AVI

In fact, Caelica's going to pick up the pace a bit now as they head toward the forest. She already got lost enough and somehow ended up here (though she wouldn't admit that), so she's not going to end up losing not!Bloodedge and get even more lost (which she would not admit)!]

[He's being followed. e_e

Ragna stops, turning his head to the girl who refuses to leave him alone.] Are you following me? [Say no. Please say no.]

[Say no? Okay.]

...Yes.

[Gee, why you gotta act so cold, not!Bloodedge?!]

[THAT'S NOT A NO.] Why the hell are you following me, of all people!?

[SURE IT IS. IF YOU'RE SUPER DYSLEXIC.

HMMMM okay no she can't come up with a false excuse, so she turns away, pouting a bit.] Because I don't know where I am. [aka she got lost--]

And why is that my problem? [He's not the police. Lost people go to the police for directions, not ~~the pizza delivery guy~~ Ragna.]

[There are no police in Luceti, silly!]

Because you're the only one I know here! I don't recognize any of the other people around here. ...Er, well... I think I saw Kazuma earlier, but then I lost him. [Ragna's so much easier to follow, obv.]

Listen, seeing one of my waned posters doesn't mean that you-- [Wait. Did she say Kazuma? Kazuma isn't from his time. He's from a hundred years in the past.

If she knows Kazuma... how does she know Ragna?] ... Kazuma?

[Wanted posters what. Not!Bloodedge what the hell did you do...

She nods.] Yep, Kazuma! You know him...? [since when]

Barely. [He only knows what Kazuma is. Nothing else, and quite frankly, he doesn't care to find out. But this girl knows him, and she knows Ragna to boot. What the hell is going on?]

Who are you?

[Did he hit his head on a rock or something? Why is he asking who she is?! Honestly! What's going on?]

I'm Caelica! Caelica Mercury. Are you suffering from amnesia again...?

[That name's familiar, but he can't place it.]

Again!? When did I have it the first time!?

A while ago, since I first found you! And your memories were gradually coming back to you, but it looks like you lost them again.

[Or maybe not, but what does she know?]

Okay. Let's get something straight. [Ready? Here goes.] I don't know you, never met you, and never lost any memories.

And I'm pretty sure we're not even from the same time period.

[But if he lost his memories, he wouldn't know--!

Okay she'd protest about the former statements but that last one catches her attention. What. That sounds crazy.] What do you mean...?

Kazuma was-- [Okay, let's be more vague.] ... He was around something close to a hundred years before me, and I only know him because of this place.

[... Oh yeah.] And this isn't Earth.

A hundred years before you? But... [..You were there. Or at least, someone who looked exactly like Ragna was. Hmm...]

And what do you mean by this not being Earth? I'm not familiar with the area at all, but even then, it's not possible to go to another world, is it?

[Ragna just sighs.] I dunno the details, but it's got something to do with Shifting us out of our worlds. Something complicated like that.

This is Luceti, and you're trapped with the rest of us.

[Just staring for a moment. They're... trapped here..?]

...E-eh?! We're trapped here? But... how do we get home? I have to get back and join the others..! [What if they think something happened to her..?! Which it apparently did, but still!]

You're not the only one who needs to get back to something important, so you're not alone in that. [So much to do back home.]

If there was a way home, I wouldn't even be here.

A-ahh, I see... [Well this isn't good.]

How did we get here though? I don't remember anyone using any magic to bring me here... What if Bloodedge and Mitsuyoshi are looking for me..?

[Okay, he's not deaf. So he caught the gist of that. Mitsuyoshi and Bloodedge...?]

What did you just say?

[Except Caelica's a derp and she'll reiterate the wrong part of that.]

That I don't remember anyone using magic to bring me here.

[Suddenly, he feels like he's talking to Noel.]

Not that! I meant the other thing.
