♞ 001 || The Prodigal Knight appears...

[onlymortal]

|| Accidental Video ||

[ The video clicks on as a tall, lanky man in a knee length red peacoat and a black beanie stalks into view, his hands shoved into his pockets, his shoulders hunched, eyes toward the floor. He takes about two steps down the hallway in question before he stops and turns, looking back over his shoulder, then looking back forward, his brow furrowing in confusion. ]

What is this shit?

[ He looks off down the hall both directions, looking more and more confused. ]

Fuckin' weird dream, that's for sure. [ He takes one last look left, then right, and finally chooses right, turning and starting off in that direction, apparently intent on finding the end of the hall...if there is one. ]

[Pretty much. Minato glanced over at the mirror. Seeing another version of himself had been beyond surreal.]

I know.

[He turned back to the older SEES member now. There might've been something else that needed explaining. With Akihiko, it had been easier to guess. But Shinjiro's case was different.]

... What day is it back home?

[That was a weird question.]

October 3rd. Why?

[Minato nodded once as he pieced together the timeline. He only had a day to consider how much he had to tell Akihiko and when, and now Shinjiro had been even further back in time. Minato still hadn't come to a decision as to how to approach the subject, though he knew that he might have to tell them eventually.

It... wouldn't change the past at home, would it? But time stopped, and people had forgotten Wonderland when they returned home, so it would most likely not. Would it then make a difference if they knew while they were here? They had the right to know since it was their lives though. Whether they wanted to hear it might be another issue...]

Wonderland has the ability to bring people in from different times. Akihiko-senpai's from about two days after you.

[He narrowed his eyes. That was new, and he wasn't really sure what to do with the information.]

Two days, huh? What about you?

[The question was inevitable. Minato didn't have any intention to hold back information, but it was only a matter of when to give that information at the most appropriate time. Just appearing in another world was already hard enough to deal with, let alone having to deal with how that new world decided to destroy what seemed logical.]

... Several months ahead of both of you.

[He blinked at the underclassman before deciding he did want the spoiler.]

Did we win?

[action]

[jivitadana.livejournal.com]

[For a second, there might've been a hint of a smile on his face.]

... Yes. We did.

[action]

[castoredux.livejournal.com]

[He nods. That's good enough. Nobody needs to know the future anyway.]

Damn straight.

[action]

[jivitadana.livejournal.com]

[Another nod. It was how it should be. The world was peaceful again. At least, from what he knew.

But now they had to deal with Wonderland. However that was going to be handled. Minato shifted his weight slightly and spoke again.]

I'm working on finding a way back.

For now, you can take any vacant room as yours.

[castoredux.livejournal.com]

Any of 'em close by?

[And that's the most caring Minato's going to get out of him. He should be used to it...or something.]

[action]

[jivitadana.livejournal.com]

[Most likely. Having his friends close by would be helpful. Minato pointed out his own room.]

Mine's 5. Akihiko-senpai's is 10. No one's living in 4 or 6.

[For the past two months or so, he didn't recall anyone living in the rooms next to his, not even those who arrived and left. Those two rooms were as close as it was going to get.]

[He nodded. Six it was.]

I'll be around if ya need me.

[action]

[jivitadana.livejournal.com]

All right. Same here, Senpai.

[Minato made his way over to his room, placing his hand on the doorknob. He looked over to Shinjiro and nodded. There was always the communicators too if they needed to contact each other.]

[Shinjiro nodded himself, then turned the knob to door number 6, and stepped inside.]
