[ KNOCK KNOCK bradley get the fuck outta here im stealing your dowohedowo dumbass ]

Aikawa? It's Hope.

[decaptych]

[ Andie your sleep!! You better be in bed by now. But pretend there is some chatter nonsense vaguely audible beyond the door before it opens and that is a very familiar brick wall, though probably not as big as it was in memory because Hope got taller. ]

Oh --

Wow, either that baby monitor really made you look small or you really meant it when you said Wiwaldi was a long time ago.

[highestheim]

[ it's fine i got like 6 hours i'm functional (?). hope, in the meanwhile, takes the opportunity to look aikawa over once the door opens. he's about the same height, he has the same voice, his mannerisms are the same...

hm. ]

I did, indeed. For me, it's been thirteen years since our "graduation." I'm not entirely sure why I seem to be the only one so drastically displaced in time, but... it is what it is.

[decaptych]

[ Closes your eyes.

Aikawa looks down at him... innocently (?). It's hard to tell with the mask. ]

Thirteen whole years? You're all grown up! No wonder you were like 'what the hell' earlier.

[highestheim]

[ help i forgot to mention he has a light bruise on his left cheek. ]

It's been... an experience, yes. Though I imagine it's stranger for you and the others to be meeting me again like this, when it's been a much shorter time for you in comparison.

[decaptych]

[ Hope why are you hurt!! ]

To be honest with you, I don't really know how long it's been. Not thirteen years that's for sure, but I don't really keep track. School really feels like forever ago, though.

I'm surprised you remember so much when it's been that long.

[highestheim]

[ secret ]

I have a good memory, is all.

[ . . . ]

Sometimes, it's like memories are all I have left.

[decaptych]

Well, that's a sad way to put it. You gotta have something.

School was a pretty good time, though. At least for me, you know, before -- ignoring all the murdering, and before shit really hit the fan with the 'story' and stuff.

[highestheim]

...I agree.

[ he pauses, again looking at aikawa. ]

. . . You're the same entity, but you are not Caiman, right?

[decaptych]

...Who said I was the same entity?

I don't know Caiman, man... I've said that to everyone else who asked, too.

[highestheim]

[ MY ICON pretend it was a more somber one help ]

. . . But do you have his memories?

[decaptych]

...No. I just know you 'cause we could see everyone through the daycare monitors, and Bradley really loves his dorm so he wouldn't shut up...

[highestheim]

. . .

I see. I apologize, then, for my misunderstandings.

[decaptych]

Nah, you got nothing to apologise for. The way I hear it, you're not used to guys as big as me. They're pretty common where I'm from though. So, pretty easy to get mistaken?

[highestheim]

Typically, no... though I do have a friend who's about your height. Someone from my world, I mean.

[decaptych]

Oh for real? That's pretty cool. What kinda person are they?

[highestheim]

[ beat ]

He's loud.

[decaptych]

...Size correlates to how loud you are?

[ He's connected the dots. ]

[highestheim]

. . .

Well, larger body size usually means bigger lung capacity, which can affect the volume of your voice.

[decaptych]

Ooh, real scientific stuff. You study it?

[highestheim]

I am a researcher, yes. Not one who specializes in biology or anatomy, but a researcher nonetheless.

[decaptych]

Oh, for real? That's pretty cool. [ Their seasons Hope... so grown up now... ] What do you study?

WK1 - TUESDAY.

[decaptych]

[ Sometime on Tuesday Hope is just getting a typewriter ding. Ding ding ding. ]
