And suddenly, the City looks familiar! It's not quite the same, but it's pretty close to home! That's... nice on the one hand, but also doubles the nostalgia. One way or the other, it's pretty amazing. I think this is the first curse that changes the whole City that I witness.

Of course, this also means doing things the old-fashioned way. Not that I really mind, but some inventions are really useful if a little weird and scary at first, if you're not used to them. Except for the network device - of course, that must be had! Not logical at all, but then, the City's never been. I ought to be used to it by now.

Almost half a year that I've been here. Time sure flies! I've known Manji for a whole year now. ... and according to the Lunar Calendar, my birthday's coming up soon.

Anyway, the real occasion is, of course, tango no sekku. The City seems to have decided on the date according to the Solar Calendar. Among everything that came together, I almost forgot, but I used the day to get some nice celebrational decoration. I got some really cute dolls at the market! Couldn't afford armor, though. Ah well, can't have everything, right? It would be silly to waste the money for one day, anyway...

... getting really nostalgic. Hah. I've got to get a grip or something.

Well! Happy tango no sekku and summer season to everyone!

Speaking of Manji! He came to his senses about two days ago. Until then, he thought I was his little sister - but that included my time in the City. So everything I did here, his little sister did in his mind. So I'd say it was more of a memory change than a loss.

What about your friend?

A little. En is more like this than the City when it's normal, though.

Oh! So we're actually pretty on par, huh?

Isn't going to Ja- Hourai hard?

Right! I'm way more use to stuff like this. Though I was kinda enjoying the instant light and water thing.

Not for a kirin. We're able to cross worlds without much trouble. But only we're able to do so without causing damage to both the Twelve Kingdoms and Hourai.

I absolutely know what you mean.

Ahh.

I guess this is a curse, though, right? So it'll all go away at midnight.

Among other things... bit it's part of the reason.

That's kind of a shame.

I guess she never told you how it all works.

[identity profile] revengeisalie.livejournal.com 2009-05-06 09:00 am (UTC)(link)
In a way - but I guess the City has to return to how it is.

Oh, she did tell me quite a bit!

[identity profile] kirinofen.livejournal.com 2009-05-06 07:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess so.

Oh. Well int hat case you probably know there would've been a lot of bad consequences for a lot of people if she had up and left.

Yes. She has to rule her country, after all.
