Don't worry, she laughed when she saw the royalty results too. And then shrieked in terror.
Maya Aimoto
2/12 near Recollé
So, I've got a ... question. The freaky things don't exactly seem to be stopping, and one thing hit me as really weird.The whole. "Founder's Day Court" thing. It didn't stand out to me until afterwards, but... well. I looked back through what's been posted to Retrospec so far, and... There are definitely more than a couple of us chosen from that who are also on THIS.
That ... seems more than a little odd, doesn't it?
[Someone seems to be lacking a certain amount of energy that's normally on display. Why, it's not as if many more "freaky" things have been happening, right?
I mean. Unless you woke up in the middle of the night with some awfully weird visions in your head, or you're desperately trying to stave off the desire to build a conspiracy wall in your bedroom.]

She doesn't quite know how to deal with it, a part of her just wants to turn things off and bury her head under a pillow but somehow she persists.]
Maya Aimoto i'm sorry
Maya Aimoto i'm sorry i'm not trying to make things weird, i just
Maya Aimoto i don't get it either
Maya Aimoto i'm really sorry
no subject
Alicia Clover Oh, I'm sorry, Maya! That came out very, very wrong. I'm scared, and I'm frustrated, and
Alicia Clover Not that it's any excuse. I don't blame you. I blame whatever is going on in this Godforsaken place.
Alicia Clover Please, talk to me... I'm sorry, I'm so sorry...
no subject
She takes a few moments to respond, but does inevitably.]
Maya Aimoto Oh, ah. Thanks. Sorry if I kind of
[Nearly freaked out? Kind of freaked out.]
Maya Aimoto This is all too much to take in, I don't know if I'm going crazy one minute or the next...!
Maya Aimoto I don't want to scare anyone, I just. I don't get what's going on...!
Maya Aimoto I'm remembering things I never saw, or having friends I didn't before now!
Maya Aimoto I know this has to be weird to hear.
no subject
Alicia Clover Believe me, this isn't the first thing that's scared me. It's just the most present because it directly involves someone else I know. And if you're crazy, then we can all go to the mad house together.
Alicia Clover I don't understand either. Part of me wants to ask about sleepover, but part of me thinks I'd be better off not knowing. How far down does the rabbit hole go?
no subject
Maya Aimoto If it's any consolation, you'd probably rock a straight jacket better than most.
[What? She's not wrong.]
Maya Aimoto I mean if you really have to ask, it actually DOES get weirder.
no subject
Alicia Clover Weirder how, though? It's already shaping up to be strange enough with just what you've told me.
no subject
Maya Aimoto tiny brightly colored floating animals...
no subject
Alicia Clover It'd only be weirder if you told me they corresponded to our hair colors. Then we'd truly be knee-deep in an anime.
no subject
no subject
[Like who broke physics.]
no subject
Maya Aimoto At least the animals were cute...
no subject
Alicia Clover A rabbit, and a dog, and a bear, and a cat. Pink, and blue, and yellow, and purple.
Alicia Clover Why do I know that? Maya, the only way we can have the same memory is...
[She can't type the words. If she does, it's admitting to herself that her life has gone upside down. But aloud to herself, without even thinking about it:]
...if we knew each other before this. If we were friends long ago. Oh, God. What's going on...?
no subject
EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH?!]
Maya Aimoto THAT'S EXACTLY IT!
Maya Aimoto Don't tell me you remember the same thing?! When did that happen?!
no subject
Alicia Clover It's vivid, and very surreal... We look like we were having fun, at least? And so do whatever those flying things were.
Alicia Clover Oh, this is so confusing...
no subject
[WHAT SORT OF POWER IS THIS THAT SHE WIELDS?!]
Maya Aimoto I'm sorry!
Maya Aimoto I mean. I guess I'm glad I'm not the only one seeing it.
Maya Aimoto ...it did look like fun, though...
[She gives a forlorn sigh to herself, then blinks at another part of it.]
Maya Aimoto Um, this might sound crazy but then again maybe nothing does at this point, but have you ever met girls named Rachel or Melody around here...?
Maya Aimoto Like, actually here - not crazy shared memory land!
[Actually, she realizes a part of her should be ecstatic she shares something with a new friend and someone so cool and famous! ... But the weirdness is kind of overriding that for now.]
no subject
Alicia Clover I do know Rachel, we've met a few times. Melody... I don't know her terribly well, but yes, we've met. Why do you ask about them?
[...That blue-haired girl looked kind of like Rachel. Then...]
Alicia Clover You suspect Rachel and Melody were there, too?
no subject
Maya Aimoto Yes, I do! Or at least... whatever it is we're remembering! They're involved!
Maya Aimoto If you remembered something like that, then that's got to be the case!
Maya Aimoto I was super nervous about telling any of you about this, I didn't think you'd believe me, and then... THIS.
no subject
Alicia Clover That brings up a harder question: how do we tell them? As you've probably noticed, I'm not exactly taking this well myself.
Alicia Clover Even having seen the memory, I'm still not a hundred percent certain I believe it! But it would be silly to doubt it when it's... all right there in my head.
no subject
Maya Aimoto ...
Maya Aimoto oh
Maya Aimoto um
Maya Aimoto you might want to look at some of my other comment threads here
Maya Aimoto ¯\(◉‿◉)/¯
no subject
Alicia Clover I guess we don't have to, because you already have?
Alicia Clover Then I still have another question: what do we do with this? So we knew each other before... somehow. Another universe like Prof. Lunise thinks, or not remembering, or something else I haven't even thought of...
Alicia Clover What does that mean for us? What are we to each other? Sure, we were working on becoming friends anyway, but this implies a bit more of a connection, don't you think?
no subject
Maya Aimoto You're right, this ... means something, yeah.
Maya Aimoto But that doesn't change things otherwise... not fully, I don't think...
Maya Aimoto I met you before any of this weird stuff started happening! I don't think this really changes any of that, does it?
Maya Aimoto If... I'm your friend, that's the important part!
Maya Aimoto We can figure out the rest, but that part's the most important, because... like. That's what we've got now, rather than whatever else is going on!
no subject
Alicia Clover But this definitely has some effect on where we go from here. Who are those girls? How did they know each other? How did they have hair like that, and what are those flying things? There are a lot of questions to answer, and we have very few leads to go on.
Alicia Clover Given the stakes - and who else is involved - I have no particular desire to rest on my laurels. I want those answers, and if we have to reach them by working together and figuring out what connects us, then I think that's what we should do.
no subject
Maya Aimoto Especially about the animals! [and the baby]
Maya Aimoto But... it's pretty easy to tell one thing, right?
Maya Aimoto They were friends!
Maya Aimoto So, we obviously started on the right track...! o(^▽^)o
[Really, Maya has a hard time holding onto cynicism when faced with something like a pillow fight, no matter how weird or peculiar visions from beyond might be.]
no subject
Alicia Clover But given that memory, "together" probably needs to mean all four of us. Five, if we can find that last girl, but starting with us four is probably okay.
no subject
Maya Aimoto Mm, together sounds... good, actually!
Maya Aimoto Which means we need to get together! The four of us!
