All a matter of perspective

It's not so bad... And probably not at all what Ella meant.

You know, it's been nice just hanging out. But I really want to get out and go exploring again.

I can understand the sentiment.

dictated;

[waterproofed]

Hey, Vi. Whatcha up to?

dictated;

[signedlefthanded]

I'm good. Busy, mainly. How are you?

dictated;

[waterproofed]

I finally figured out what my new loss is, so that's good.

dictated;

[signedlefthanded]

What is it?

dictated;

[waterproofed]

I can't breathe underwater anymore.

dictated;

[signedlefthanded]

Oh-- I'm sorry. I know how much you liked that.

dictated;

[waterproofed]

It's okay. I can adjust.

dictated;

[signedlefthanded]

My loss seems simple compared to others'.

dictated;

[waterproofed]

I really don't think it matters if it's simple or not. If it's important to you, then the impact is strong no matter what.

Some people have memories of people they love though.

dictated;

[waterproofed]

I know...

dictated;

[signedlefthanded]

How was having a family for you? That reunion?

Re: dictated;

[waterproofed]

Oh. Well, you know... I'm used to a big family. But it was weird having those fake memories.

dictated;

[signedlefthanded]

That was the hardest part.

dictated;

[waterproofed]

Why do you think got the castle on this fake memory kick, anyway?

dictated;

[signedlefthanded]

To screw us up. Some of us don't have much family to go back to.

dictated;

[waterproofed]

But it just starteed doing it when we were on the pirate ships. I think.

dictated;

[signedlefthanded]

I don't know. Why does it take things from us?

dictated;

[waterproofed]

Eh, I donno. There are lots of theories for that... But I can't wrap my head around it.

[eatsfire]

I'd be up for some exploring. Would be fun.

[waterproofed]

I think there's some organizing left for the expedition. But if you're really bored, thre's a maze right here in the castle.

dictated;

[signedlefthanded]

I don't try and figure it out. It's an omniscient, cruel castle. None of that is logical.

dictated;

[waterproofed]

Everyone has their own way of experiencing Paradisa, I think.

[eatsfire]

Mnnn, guess I could wait a bit for that.

Uwuh? A maze, really?
