Twenty-Seventh Flame-[Action]

[gogglesyndrome]

[Taichi's been made well-aware of the people that have come into the village, but he's not too concerned. He hasn't seen any duplicates of himself, nor has he seen any of his friends, so why worry, right?

Exactly. So instead he's decided the best course of action is to make a snowfort and he's currently hiding inside of it with a huge pile of snowballs, waiting to find innocent people to throw them at. Ridiculous child is ridiculous. Never mind the fact the top of his bird nest hair is probably sticking out.

So, do you get hit? Or do you bust him before he can throw one?]

Only if you live here permanently. I think all of you guys get to go home soon.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

Go home...

How do you know?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

That's what a lot of the other people here are saying.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

It's not for certain, though.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

That's not a reason to just give up though.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

[.....] I didn't say that either.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

...then what?

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

I'm ... sorry, this is all just a little unsettling, I guess. [And ... strange? Nostalgic? She's not sure.] Are we almost at that place you were talking about?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, I thought it was kinda weird too when I first got here. [He nods then and suddenly stops in front of the normal clothing store.] Yup, we're here!

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

[She takes a good look at it.] This is really allowed?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Sure is! They don't mind if we just take stuff.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

Who doesn't?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Oh. The Malnosso guys.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

Do you mean... the mayor?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

What mayor?

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

In charge of the town.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

There's no mayor. Unless he's unseen, too.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

Unseen? What are you talking about?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

[Man, usually we're asking Raine questions, not the other way around.] It's hard to explain, but nobody really knows what the guys who run the village look like.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

But... how is the village taken care of, then? Aren't there adults here?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

[You know...we're just gonna drag Raine inside before she freezes and dies.] No there are, but there are others too. But a lot of the adults take care of the different shops and school and stuff.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

[That's a good idea. Since Raine is too busy... thinking too much. She glances around the shop as they enter] So... they work, right? And - there must be commerce, and trade.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

[Ah, some things never change. Taichi's just dragging her around the store now looking for warm clothes.] I don't know about that, but yeah, they work.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

And... if there's a town here, it has to have -- history in it, right?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think so. The library probably has some books on it.
