['Jack' appears on the Plane, the front of his shirt bloodied and stains on his neck. He stumbles back against the nearest available object one of Ammy's trees and slumps down. His expression is blank, except for the barest hint of shock still lingering on it. Jack's legacy has decreed that Ryotarou could barely go a day before eventually dying... and with Ryotarou's own luck, it took a while for him to revive.]

... I don't know if the connection would still work that way then.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

Suppose you'll have to find out later, yeah? Don't worry about it too much right now.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

I— Deneb is— [fsdnlk]

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

Oi, it's alright. Take a deep breath, mate.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Does.]

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

Try again, then?

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Pause.] Deneb is... all I have left right now.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

[another sort of sigh] I see. I'm sure he'll turn up if he sensed anything, then.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

He wouldn't have sensed— [more sdflkhknlf]

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

[aaah, this topic doesn't seem to be the best for someone who's already freaked out as it is]

Might be about time for another deep breath, Ryotarou.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[... Yeah, good idea. He takes a breath and pulls his legs up so he can wrap an arm around them.]

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

[The Doctor will be here, trying to think of how to change the topic, and to what.

So after a second, he tries the direct approach.] Tell me about your world. You said you did you share of dangerous work, yeah?

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

... I fight to stop Imagin, when Den-O isn't strong enough to beat them on his own.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

Who's Den-O, then? Sounds a bit like a super hero.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

You could call him that. He's a Masked Rider... like when I become Zeronos, I'm pretty much the same.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

Together, you fight the forces of evil? That sort of thing?

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

... no. We wouldn't have to fight together if he were stronger in the first place. I just.. help, if I have to.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

I see. . . [he only sort of does, actually.]

How'd you get into this sort of thing, anyway? Had a special birthmark or something?

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

My future self came to get me. He needed my help. I... don't know how he got into it.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

. . . Blimey, that's a bit odd. I suppose it's possible that he got into it because his future self came to him? Recursive time loop.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

No, he... That's not how it happened. [Due to the cards and their effect, Ryotarou knows it's not possible.]

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

Mm, I see. Sorry about that, trying to apply reasonings from my own world.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

... No, it makes sense, but it's just.. not how it happened.

[doctorate.livejournal.com]

[nods] You'd know better than I would, of course.

Is there a special technology behind it?

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[And here's the tiniest of headtilts.] ... we ride in trains.
