[ he's Taiwanese the only ones he knows are in camp 8D ]

Mmm . . . the seventh and twelfth months, in the Gregorian calendar. The sixth-ish and eleventh-ish lunar months.

[oguna]

[ Does that matter? ]

I see.

[ Not that he really knows what these namings of the calendars are, but at least he has a bit more of a clue now. ]

[powerisyours]

[ it could ]

Mm. About half a year apart, in opposite seasons.

[oguna]

That is quite the difference, then. I will have to calculate what month in Amamikado’s calendar that it correlates with.

[ Already working on that in his mind. He’ll likely have to gather more clues, however. ]

[powerisyours]

It may not be too difficult. There are a lot of people here, from a lot of different places, times, and even planets.

[oguna]

[ Just giving a look that says "what shit are you making up" ]

[powerisyours]

[ he's good at reading those faces ]

I know it sounds a little strange, but I promise it's the truth.

[oguna]

It sounds like some stupid fantasy to me.

[powerisyours]

[ chuckling softly ]

It's a fairly common reaction. Give it some time, you'll see what I mean.

[oguna]

[ glare ]

And if I don't want to do that?

[powerisyours]

I hate to say it, but there isn't really much of a choice. Everyone is trapped here. Some were lead here under false pretenses; being promised this or that, others came expecting something much different. But once you're here, you can't leave until it lets you go.

[oguna]

Kh!

[ Damnitall! ]

[powerisyours]

It's a little frustrating to start with, I agree.

[oguna]

[ An eyebrow is raised. ]

A little?

[powerisyours]

I suppose it depends on the type of person you are. Much of what is here would still be considered fairly normal, where I come from, for instance.

[oguna]

About all that is here are things I haven’t seen before.

[powerisyours]

You can take it one step at a time. Other than the mistletoe, hypothetically there won't be anything too terribly awful happening for a while.

[oguna]

"Hypothetically"?

[powerisyours]

Well, you can never tell for certain. October in its entirety is terrible, but I remember there was some sort of thing in September of last year where people got cards that changed their personalities. Tough, mean people became doormats, lazy bums became social activists, the nicest people in camp started indiscriminately hurting and killing people. It wasn't fun. I couldn't tell you if that was a yearly thing, or something one-off, though.

[oguna]

I’d rather that that isn’t something that happens every year.

[powerisyours]

I can't say I'd like for it to happen again, either.

[oguna]

I guess.

[powerisyours]

It sort of is what it is. Keep an eye out, and you'll be fine.

[oguna]

I will, then.

[powerisyours]

Great! Is there anything else you'd like to know?
