Well, I think by now everyone knows of the earthquake two days ago. In case someone slept through it, in which case I envy them their deep sleep, the network would have amply informed them. Not only that, but also the lights, and that they were hitting the barrier, and the tides, and the animals...

Anyway. Point of this entry is -- and this information is for the Curse Brigade, too -- Rosella and I went to have a look at that yesterday. All properly in a boat and all.

Not that we found much of anything. There wasn't any damage as far as we could see it. I don't know, maybe someone checked the underground and knows different. But the barrier in the sea is intact. On the way there, we also did not see anything unusual.

Still, it would be advisable to be cautious. It's only been two days, so I don't think it's all that impossible for there to be a follow up yet. Huey, I heard you think it may be something from a book called the Bible?

Another common theory, one I share, is that this is related to what happened almost a year ago now, when there was also an earthquake, and we were all attacked by a hair monster after. Which, by the way, could be warded off with lemon cakes. Before its mother came to get it -- and that was the end of that.

That's all, I think. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Asano Rin, out.

Umi-chan... are you okay?

(OOC: Brought to you by this thread. o/ OH AND, with the current bankwagon going on, I am reminded - because I keep forgetting - that I wanted to thank whoever gave me the userpic addon a while ago! Really, that was so sweet. ♥ Thanks!)

Guess I will. Clef's got me resting nonstop since it happened. Jeez, I owe it to Clef and Ken that I actually made it back to my place!

Give them my regards. I'm certainly glad they were around to help you. And make you stay in bed.

They had a little trouble with that last part. But... yeah. Even I know when to stay put. Kinda.

Well. I'm glad they gave you a... gentle nudge in the right direction, regardless.

Fuu helped a lot. Really! They should worry about HER overexerting herself, not me.

She's been researching about whatever's going on since the sea went nuts...

Has she? She certainly seemed very calm about everything when I spoke to her.

...That's Fuu for you. She knows how to stay cool even if her brain is working at double speed.

Which is saying A LOT, considering it's Fuu.

Is it? I don't know her that well yet.

I bet you guys will get along great when you do. Like I said, she has that in common with you, Rin: you both are research-y types!

Ah, right! Yeah, I can see that. Though I got the impression you like to do research, too! Well, the kind that involves going out at least.

...Ehh. I'm not the sort to go through books, that's for sure. I'd rather go check if something weird's happening on the spot.

Guess that's why I'm in the exploration division of the Curse Brigade instead of the research one.

Right! I can understand that. Actually, I think I'm in both -- a little here-and-there.

That's proactive of you! Doesn't surprise me either.

Geez, it's just a hunch. But I think the Brigade's gonna be really busy in the following days.

Hah. I try.

Now, why would you ever think that?

Aw, I don't really know. Maybe paranoia finally got to me, let me tell you...

My, what a surprise! It's so nice and quaint around here, after all.

EXACTLY! Really, now. We should be begging for something to happen so we don't bore ourselves stiff!

... uh, okay, let's not tempt fate any further.

We don't really need to, sarcastic as we can get! That's the worst part. Things come on their own...

True enough.

So how's it going for you? Looks like you've been reading this Revelations book too, haven't you?

I hope the earthquakes didn't leave your place damaged or something...

No, not yet. I plan to look it up. But I take it you've been reading it?

Nah, everything's fine over here. What about yours?

I don't need to. Or... WANT TO, to be completely honest. Fuu's read it, and so far? That eidetic memory of hers is helping.

Not bad. I think my little something at the beach was the worst that happened.

I see! She is an avid reader, isn't she? So what's she been finding?

Good to hear -- that that was the worst of it.

She mentioned stuff will come in phases, like Huey said. The water may get poisoned with... blood, of all things. Can you BELIEVE that?

But so far I haven't asked for detail. Not yet.
