[ The red-head has an extremely displeased expression on her face, but too bad you can't see it. Audio will suffice for everyone. No use getting more familiar than need be, after all. An audible irked tone will be heard by anyone who cares to listen to her. ]

While I'm certain this isn't Kamigusk, or anywhere near the academy, I'm lost as to where exactly I am. I apologize for this ignorance, and can assure you I'll get my bearings once acclimated to the area. A map would be nice, if one can be supplied to me. I refuse to trust any objects in this backpack until it's proven not to be cursed or rigged. Not to mention I have no mother, so this farce that is going on is ludicrous.

This creature that I've been given is also an unexpected burden and I'd much like to get rid of it somewhere. If you'd like to take good care of a floating cat-like animal, please reply with your request, though I refuse to give it to anyone unqualified.

[ It's impossible, isn't it? But at the same time, it wasn't too long ago that she did hear this voice. There are multiple people with the same name, right...? There's only one way to confirm her hunch. ]

...these devices have capabilities that allow picture signals to be sent, correct? So that I can possibly see you.

That is correct. There should be a button labelled "video" on your 'Gear, but I can switch mine now.

[Which he does! Look familiar now, Misaki?]

[ She doesn't inhale but she does pause, finger over the specified button. It's true. It really is him. It seems rude to be the only one not visible so she quickly clicks the button and appears. ]

So it's been reversed.

[...Odd. She looks familiar, but he can't quite place her. It has been a few months for him and a few years for her, after all..]

Reversed, you say?

Your magic. You've become younger.

[It's his turn to pause a moment. It isn't as though he broadcasts the effects of his sacrifice.]

Who are you...?

[ She sighs and gives him a slightly off-put look. ]

I'm your assistant. Did you really forget me in a years time?

My...? I don't recall ever having hired one.

It wasn't exactly a hiring, per se...I shouldn't have to explain this to you.

[He slowly shakes his head.]

I really don't remember anything like that happening. And trust me when I say it is something I would recall.

[He thinks on it for a moment, and then:]

...What age was I when you last saw me?

[ Misaki's face sours. ]

You looked to be in your late forties. Possibly fifties.

[Oh. Well then.]

...So that would make you from my future. That explains quite a bit.

But how lucky of me, to have such a lovely assistant!

[ She's too used to that charm to be entirely softened by it. ]

So this kind of thing can pull from different time periods as well. Interesting.

That is correct. When I first came here, another newcomer told me of some acquaintances who were from about a year before, from his perspective.

If I may ask - when exactly was it that we met? You look familiar to me, but I can't quite place it...

[ She inspects his features quickly. ]

Judging by your appearance, you would have met me relatively soon had you not been brought here.

[He thinks about it for a bit. He's sure she looks vaguely familiar, but who-

He snaps his fingers as it comes to him.]

Would you happen to be- the girl who figured out that magic trick?

[ She frowns slightly. ]

Yes, that was me. It wasn't the extent of our meetings though, obviously.

Clearly not!

Hmmm... As I recall, I planned to pay you a visit. Did I manage to make it there, by any chance?

Yes, you did...You used your magic to help me.

...I see. So I was able to help after all.

I'm glad.
