Vongola XXVII -- Dictated

[not_mafia]

[He should have asked this two days ago, really, but he kind of got.. distracted. Also, procrastinating like a boss and hoping he wasn't jinxing it. But now he's kind of curious.]

Just out of curiosity-- what's the longest anyone has seen a loss last?

[In other words, hi guys, he's still here.]

[rose_of_battle]

[Well, hi, Tsuna!]

Someone told me they had one last for about a month. Why?

[not_mafia]

One month...

[He had quite a bit of time left in that case.]

Hm? Oh-- I think I may be on a loss, and was expecting it to end a couple days ago, so... Well, I was a bit surprised when it hadn't.

[rose_of_battle]

Yeah, I thought they only lasted a few days, too, until she told me she had been changed into a fairy for the entire time.

[She pauses and her tone is thoughtful.]

But, from what you're saying, it's not that type of loss?

[not_mafia]

[He chuckles.]

I don't think I sound like a fairy. Do you think that I do, Sheena?

[rose_of_battle]

[Her tone is still thoughtful at first.]

Well, that depends, some fairies voices can be soft, or loud, or--

[HOLY DERPNESS]

Wait a second! How did you know my name? I didn't tell you it!

[not_mafia]

Hm, I wonder~

[rose_of_battle]

[Oh, don't be coy... Because her eyes are narrowing even more here.]

Yeah, I wonder, too! How do you know my name?

[She's got some weird-ass theories going through her head--the least of which is he's from her future.]

[not_mafia]

Were you not around while I re-introduced myself over the journals?

[rose_of_battle]

[That gets her attention, and she stares at the journal in wonder.]

You were here before?

[She's quiet a moment.]

Ummm, well... Do you remember when you did that? I was on a loss last month and don't recall any of it.

[He'll hear a faint sound as she flips through the pages.]

[not_mafia]

The whole month? [He chuckles.] Well, that'd explain it.

It's me, Sheena. Tsuna. Except, well... ten years older now.

[rose_of_battle]

[And now he'll hear complete silence--right before:]

Tsuna?! You-- You're-- But--

[Then it clicks.]

Is this the loss you were talking about?

[not_mafia]

Aha, yep. Surprise...!

[rose_of_battle]

"Surprise" is right! How long have you been like this?
