Somehow, I doubt that I could suddenly arrive at a place like this from the train station. Not without actually riding a train, that is. And no, I did not ride one today...though I did say I might. But that was just a joke. This must be a joke too, albeit a rather odd one. Whoever did this must have a lot of time on their hands.

Either way, I should stop wasting time standing here and be more productive. Would anyone be kind enough to give me directions to the nearest station or exit? Preferably ones where I can avoid meeting any more monkeys with a penchant for swiping hats...

The island picks whoever it wants to bring. It has a mind of its own, kind of.

[fortunebealady.livejournal.com]

...But landmasses are inanimate.

[whatismafia.livejournal.com]

Usually they are, haha. This one's a little special.

[fortunebealady.livejournal.com]

How so?

[whatismafia.livejournal.com]

Sometimes it can talk, and it does whatever it wants to people here. We get special events from time to time, too. And you'll meet lots of different people who come from different worlds and time periods!

...............Is that so? *looking at you like you just grew two heads!*

[whatismafia.livejournal.com]

Haha, it's a little hard to believe at first. But it helps knowing what to look out for while you're here.

[fortunebealady.livejournal.com]

And what would I need to look out for then?

[whatismafia.livejournal.com]

The cursed springs for one; don't go into any that aren't marked by statues. You should also stay away from the berries that grow here because they can change your behaviour, and the weather is very random. What else... Ah, please watch out for the dingoes.

[fortunebealady.livejournal.com]

Ah, Yukina-san mentioned the springs and berries... There are dingoes here?

[whatismafia.livejournal.com]

Yes, so you should be careful. You've met Yukina already? That's good! She's really nice and helpful.

[fortunebealady.livejournal.com]

I will keep an eye out for them. And yes, I did. She is a very kind person.

[whatismafia.livejournal.com]

You might meet some people who aren't very nice, but you can also make some good friends here.

[fortunebealady.livejournal.com]

I was expecting that. Not everyone can be nice, as sad as that is. It'd be out of place.

[whatismafia.livejournal.com]

That's true, but I do try because I think there's a bit of good in everyone.

Ah, I'm Yamamoto Takeshi!

[fortunebealady.livejournal.com]

That's a good philosophy.

Shirogane Naoto. Nice to meet you, Yamamoto-san.

[whatismafia.livejournal.com]

Nice to meet you, too. If you need help getting around, I'll be here.

[fortunebealady.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the offer. I'll make sure to remember it.

[whatismafia.livejournal.com]

Not a problem! I hope you enjoy your stay here, as weird as it might be.
