02 [Action]

[drawnbythesword]

[Waking up in some strange room he didn't recognize was not on this young boy's agenda today. Whatever the place was, he wasn't too keen on staying in it for long. Thankfully, he found a note on the nearby desk that told him Richard was in "House #43". It looked similar to the boy's writing, and hey, would he really steer him wrong?

So today, you might find this younger Asbel in one of two places; First, you might find him wandering the village, looking quite confused as he searched for something. If he sees you, he may run up to you, saying if he can ask you a question.

...Alternatively, you may very well find him at his desired destination, House #43. It really is difficult to find a house when the numbering is all out of order. In the case of the latter scenario, you will see (and hear) him shouting at the top of his lungs at the house.]

Heeyyy, Richaaarrd! Are you in there?! [...Apparently someone's never heard of knocking on the door first.]

((ooc: Asbel's been reduced physically and mentally to the age of 11. Replies will come from seekscrosophie for the sake of icons.))

How don't you remember it? It's your writing!

[tiger-festival.livejournal.com]

I don't know. All I know is that I wasn't the one who wrote it.

[He turns back to Naoki, curious.]

You said you know me from the future-- does that have anything to do with this letter?

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

[This one's all yours, man.]

[denyingreasons.livejournal.com]

Most likely. The you I know probably gave it to the Asbel I know.

[He turns his attention to Asbel, tilting his head slightly. He sees no reason to hide the truth from him, either.]

You, too. I know you when you're older.

[seekscrosophie.livejournal.com]

[He cocks his head to the side. ....He doesn't really get it.]

[tiger-festival.livejournal.com]

[Now Richard notices Isamu and looks over at him.]

Do you know us from the future as well?

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

Uh. Yeah. Guess you could say that.

[denyingreasons.livejournal.com]

[Naoki notices Asbel tilting his head like that and offers a smile.]

Don't worry too hard on it. It probably won't be for very long that you two are here, at any rate.

[seekscrosophie.livejournal.com]

[No, really, he doesn't get it at all. He whispers to Richard.]

...What are they talking about?

[tiger-festival.livejournal.com]

He told me that he knows me from the future somehow. I'm not sure I believe him, but I don't think he's a bad person.

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

[Someone needs to teach you kids how to whisper better.]

[denyingreasons.livejournal.com]

[Someone really does. Especially where Naoki's got demon senses. He looks over at Isamu, shrugging his shoulders helplessly.]

[seekscrosophie.livejournal.com]

[Totally unaware of those two listening in, he continues to whisper, now he does lean closer towards Richard now.]

...Huh? But aren't these guys your bodyguards? And how can they know us from the future?

[tiger-festival.livejournal.com]

No, I've never met them before in my life. Unless they're somehow my bodyguards in the future...

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

[Isamu fails to hold in a snicker, turning it quickly into an abrupt clearing of his throat.]

[denyingreasons.livejournal.com]

[Naoki presses his knuckles to his mouth to hide a grin, looking over at Isamu. Man, you would so not make a good bodyguard, is what he's thinking.]

[seekscrosophie.livejournal.com]

None of this makes any sense. I still don't get how they know us in the future? Can... Can they do that?

[tiger-festival.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure, but I do know that we need to find some way to get back home.

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

[Good luck with that one, kids.]

[denyingreasons.livejournal.com]

[Naoki sighs a bit and scratches at his neck before moving to stand.]

I'll make some breakfast. [Jerking his thumb toward the kitchen.]
