Dreamland (round 3)
[A strange house of some sort sits in the pitch black nothingness that exists around it. For those just now wandering in, they will be drawn to the building, finding it lit up in a way that it should not be. It's as if the whole area- house, yard, fence, and giant sakura tree- all give off their own light, and the newly-arrived are drawn to it like a moth to the flame.
Inside the boundary of the yard, the familiar faces of those who have passed on already will greet them. Depending on who is asked, they might give an accurate explanation. But even if they don't, one thing is clear: you don't want to leave this place. The area outside feels Dangerous, and it is probably best to stay put.
Fortunately, the house is built in an old style, and there are many rooms to explore. One room on the second floor seems locked, but the rest are open to explore as desired. The standard rooms are easy to find: kitchen, a W.C. and a bathroom, a sitting room of some sort, and a couple bedrooms (with plenty of futons for the dead to use). There are also several tatami mat rooms with nothing in them currently, but it seems like there might be some use for those rooms.
Around the house, perches for birds can be found. No birds are on them currently, though.
Sometimes Watanuki can be found in the house, but most of the time the dead will be left to their own devices. The question is, what will they do here?]

[She doesn't... really know what to say?]
I suppose I don't need to tell you that was stupid.

[Believe it or not, that whole shitshow of a trial didn't put Karen into a particularly patient mood. Sorry Syaoran.]
no subject
I had it coming for a long time. I deserved everything that came to me.
[ . . . ]
So it's fine. Have you. . . been doing alright, since then?
no subject
[She saw the execution.]
Better than you might expect, considering I've been powerless to do anything to help you all while a demon lives in my body and makes sure everyone knows what women I'm attracted to.
no subject
[ He won't say anything to agree or disagree with that statement, because while it physically hurt, the pain of dying didn't feel like enough for all of his sins. Even if it was quick, in a sense.
He kind of wonders. . . If Kimihiro suffered all that, too. Maybe he'll have to ask about that later. ]
I understand the feeling. Of being able to watch through another person's perspective... and not do anything about it. [ It looks like she saw everything through Vinea's eyes, so he gets that. ] It makes me wonder what kind of person the 'me' will be.
no subject
[She knew he'd had something weird going on from how Vinea acted during Two Truths And a Lie, but she must have missed this part.]
Well, if he's anything like Kurusu-san's and mine... he'll be like you, but more obnoxious.
no subject
[ He covers his right eye to show her what he means. ]
He'll be like me, huh. I wonder which 'me' he'll be.
no subject
[Not that this information actually makes it feel any less frustrating...]
Who knows? The answer might be complicated.
no subject
[ He wears a small solemn smile. ]
I suppose that's true. It was already complicated with me, after all.
no subject
Vinea-san isn't really me, but she has a lot of me in her. I don't know if that's how it always is, though.
no subject
We share the same existence, so there's a lot about the two of us that are similar in a lot of ways. But we're also different. And you could say the same for me and the other Syaoran from that show.
no subject
[Karen is quiet for a moment.]
Syaoran-san, may I ask you something about that? Watching your other self?
no subject
[ He certainly doesn't seem to mind. ]
no subject
no subject
[ He nods, a little solemnly. ]
But it was very lonely, only being able to see through that eye and being unable to intefere until the time was right.
no subject
But what was it like? Did you feel as though you could still have a relationship with them?
no subject
I think it might be possible to have a deeper relationship with someone even if they wind up with the person that is you, but isn't. But I don't think it would be fair unless they saw you as Karen-san, not Vinea-san.
no subject
no subject
I think the others might know and understand that, too. Even if there are similarities. I wanted to get to know both the Karen-san in front of me and the Vinea-san.
