first;

[There is someone in the Alchemy district fiddling with his Relic. If you're sneaky enough to look over his shoulder, he's writing something on the notepad function. Something about shiny walls that teleport you to a weird area, the Omega server, and Christmas. It might entirely be fiction, but then Takeshi talks to himself out loud:]

And that's when I blank out... I remember a Christmas event, and then I wake up here with at least half of my previous levels. And there's no way to contact Zero or Amaterasu or Yuuta, unless I try to party invite them, but there are entries missing in my contact list... [a sigh.] No sign of Spin, either.

[Dogs do get curious too, you know! Anyone is free to bother him, and ask him what this is all about.]

[he nods at the explanation]

Chaos Gate...? [a pause] You mean that strange device in the room we woke up in?

[just to make sure, because the Mirror of Twilight is really the only path through alternate realms]

[lookslikemomo]

Yeah, that's the one. The biiiiig thing with the rings!

Too bad it's not the way out of The World, too.

[twilightlegend]

How strange... Towns usually have gates. [he murmurs quietly... Oh!]

Thank you. [he nods. There's a sheepish pause before he adds on;] That was really helpful.

[lookslikemomo]

The Chaos Gate is kind of like that? They're not gigantic doors that lead you straight out, but the principle is the same, haha!

And you're welcome! I'm always ready to help anyone who asks!

My name is Takeshi, by the way! It's nice to meet you!

[twilightlegend]

[he stares a moment, puzzled, before smiling at Takeshi. Time to expand his dictionary.... Link supposes]

Link. [he nods his head in a 'how do you do' gesture]

... One last question. [he looks so awkward asking] How do you add contacts? [/medieval]

[lookslikemomo]

Oh, that's pretty easy! [he raises his Relic again.] You just hold your Relic up close to the person whose member address you want to add.

[twilightlegend]

[he looks at the Relic in his hand, then at the one Takeshi is holding up. Well, it never hurts to try...

New Contact get!

Don't mind Link confused/startled look at the beeps and lights the Relic is emitting. It's his first time]

[lookslikemomo]

There!

Now I've been added to your contacts, and you're in mine now!

[twilightlegend]

[a smile in thanks. Link appreciates you!]

I'll send word sometime. Or maybe we'll meet again here. [he means in town, but it seems he's already getting used to being in The World]

[lookslikemomo]

[Takeshi smiles in return. Being helpful makes him feel great!]

I'll do my best to help you if you need it again!
