I met him, yeah.
…He wasn’t very friendly.
I’m sorry! That wasn’t me, that was Ratatosk! I can’t control him!
Huh… You have a side to yourself that you’re not good at controlling too?
Maybe we’ll get along after all!
Yeah!
No.
…This friendship is gonna take some work…

Well, I dunno about you guys, but I could probably pull off a spell or two.
I’d let Genis try to show off, and sneak away while the monsters were distracted~
Hey!
I have no patience for people who’d abandon their comrades like that…
Anyway, I’m a pretty good hunter, so I could probably hold them off until they either got tired or help arrived.

My new Dear Sister, Estelle!
Flower Sisters unite! Heehee~
And Norma tells the best ghost stories.
Damn right I do~
And Luca’s pretty smart! He’s not as fun to tease as Caius, though.
Finally, a classmate who doesn’t try to copy my homework!

Dear Anonymous,
Alright! Now here’s someone who has some taste!
I wonder who it is? Maybe…Nan?
Whatcha got there, Cap’n? *yoink*
Hey! Give that back!
“Secret admirer”? This…
is…
The funniest thing I’ve ever read in my life! Ahahahahaaahhh!
Come on, Yuri! Just give it back!
Fine, take it back. Word of advice? Try...

Well, most of the enemies we fought were monsters or bandits or whatnot. So it was easy to assert myself against them, and it was fun to trash talk them in battles I knew we were gonna win. Then it just became habit.
It has actually done wonders for my ego and self-esteem. Other things influenced that as well, sure, but trash-talking bad guys certainly didn’t hurt.
One might...

Most of it was just sitting around all out in the open…
And well…we did need it to save the world and everything…
I believe the phrase “Finder’s keepers” is what my friends are getting at.

Perhaps so, however…
That would require me to get along with anyone.
This could be a bit difficult…

Asbel seems like quite the worthy knight. He has an admirable devotion to the protection and safety of others. He’s also plenty strong and capable of being a great knight.
There doesn’t seem to be quite as much call for knights lately, but nonetheless if there were a need, and he were willing, I’d recruit Asbel.
Thank you Commandant sir, I’m honored by your...

Heroes, I noticed you from afar and decided to come aid you in your…heroic pursuits.

Really? What does it say?
“Bad luck and extreme misfortune will infest your pathetic soul for all eternity”…
Wh-what?! Who writes these things?!?
Your guess is as good as mine. Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go lock myself in my room for a while…
Meanwhile…

It’s really nice here!
Even with Jade pranking everyone all the time…
But the penthouse is still a lot nicer than Fern. It’s fancy and full of good food and comfy couches and stuff.
Tear’s nice, she doesn’t follow me and Forest around all the time anymore since we finally showed her what Leimorneans look like in beast form… But I still notice her...

Happy mother’s day, mom!
Hope you like it!
…Is this an attempt at breakfast in bed? It’s almost 8 PM.
Yeah, we… kinda overslept. Sorry.
One egg and half a glass of orange juice?
Well there was more, but we… got a little hungry.
Well, you are my boys, after all. Can’t say I’m surprised.
I love it. Thanks, you two!

This old thing?
I still don’t quite know what to make of it. I’m flattered at the thought of being… “ripped”, as the kids call it, but I don’t like anyone getting the wrong impression of me.
Woah! That’s you?!
It’s great to finally see you in person! That statue is great. It’s also a favorite hangout for the local birds!

Lock them in Asch’s basement.
They’ll either snap from his constant pessimism or he’ll throw them out and lock them in the bathroom until they cave in and take a bath.
Come oooooon! Let me out of here! I just want a sample of your hair so I can see if I can create a robot with it! Don’t you want an Aschbot of your very own?
NO. Now shut up and leave me alone,...

This isn’t common knowledge!?
Real women eat chicken because it gives us essential nutrients and gives our skin a radiant glow!
If more women ate it, the world would be a better place!
Don’t tell Sophie, though. Let’s just say she disagrees and leave it at that.

Natalia is a strong young woman who will do amazing things for her country. She loves them, and they love her. It took me a long time to see that, but I definitely do now.
As for whether I see her as my fiancee or not…that’s hard to say. She was never truly my fiancee to begin with, she was Asch’s. And it’s clear that she still dearly loves him.

Actually, I don’t believe we’ve told them yet. They’re aware that we are reincarnations, but not that our past lives were essentially gods…
If they’d try to make summoning pacts with us, I don’ think I wanna tell ‘em…
Knowing Bersellius and Pascal, it would probably not be wise.

Well, it hasn’t been that difficult so far, but I’d have to say the hardest thing to adjust to is probably…
Jade.

I’d just like to apologize on the behalf of the rest of us from Abyss for inflicting Jade on all of you guys.

Well, lifting heavy books definitely helps…
Mostly I just get regular exercise. You’d be surprised how good for you a couple stretches and jumping jacks can be. Walks, too.

Ah, that sounds like a good idea!
Oh, yeah, definitely!
We can go to the beach so I can stare at Emil in a swimsuit, we can go to the amusement park so I can get Emil to go on the tunnel of love, or we could go to a fancy pasta restaurant and Emil and I could re-enact that scene from the movie about the two dogs in love…
On second thought, maybe not…

Thanks! It is a pretty awesome spell, isn’t it? Casting it feels pretty awesome, too.
I figured it out on my own. My sis had an old book that talked about a crazy Indignation spell, and I tried to figure out how to cast it.
I dunno if I got it right, since the book was kinda vague, but I think the result is pretty cool anyway.
I try to use it as an argument for why I’m...

Dear Anonymous,
I never really thought of it! I guess that would be easier in some cases.
But then I’d have to leave my friends behind! That would be really mean of me! And I can’t fight all those monsters alone!
Actually, it’s kinda fun to figure them out the right way, anyway. It’s like exercise for your brain, you know?

Dear Anonymous,
Yeah, sometimes I’ll use ol’ righty when I don’t think some goon’s gonna be enough of a challenge. Keeps things interesting, you know?
It’s even more fun when someone can hold their own when I do that and then I switch and turn the tables right back on ‘em!

Once you have tasted a crablette, you will understand why.
They are a delectable, heavenly treat that all of society must sample at least once…absolutely nothing else can compare…
I feel like we should start making her something else before the world’s crab population goes extinct.

The merchant I bought it from said it was a dragon skull. It was probably meant to be a collector’s piece rather than a mask, but the price was reasonable, so I bought multiples in case this one broke.
But why a skull? You gotta admit, something that barely covers your face makes a pretty crappy mask. Heck, at first I didn’t even think it was supposed to be a mask…

Dear MeraKnight,
It’s certainly a different type of experience. Ba’ul is nice because he gives me someone to talk to on the ride, but Rheiards definitely have an advantage when it comes to speed and maneuverability. Ba’ul can’t really do tricks, either.
Neither can you.
Oh, don’t be so uptight. Didn’t Lloyd say you’ve already crashed them...

She is.
It’s nice having others my age around here…or, I suppose, as close as they can get. We both have rather interesting circumstances surrounding us, as I’m sure you know.
I do not know why I never tried royal crablettes until now, but they are now a staple of every meal.

You’re welcome~ It was fun to answer. I guess the best game I’ve ever played, I’d have to go with my old favorite, Skies of Arcadia. It’s not technically impressive, but it’s a fun game that’s just so much more than the sum of its parts, and… well, come on, it’s a game about pirates who fly around the sky in wooden sailing ships.

I find myself spending a lot of time with the Colonel.
He’s a fantastic co-conspirator.

Presea can also be pleasant company.

Mod Blank to start this one off!
I’m really a fan of the original Spyro trilogy (as in only the one’s originally on the PS1.) I just really like it. I recently played and thoroughly enjoyed Psychonauts. I really like the Mass Effect series (way too much.) I like Oblivion as well, though I’m odd and not really a huge fan of any of the other Elder Scrolls games...

Suddenly I’m not so sure moving here was a good idea…

He didn’t exactly take it well.
Hmph! I still don’t know what Martel could’ve possibly seen in that idiot! I wanted my sister to be happy, but I don’t know how anyone could’ve possibly been happy married to him! There’s no man alive deserving of her, Yuan being one of the least deserving of all!
You flatter me.

No, we haven’t told anybody yet, but I think someone already did.
