[Video] Are these thoughts my own?
[Umemiya's in one of the training rooms in the Spire, sitting on the floor after a workout. He's in that post-exercise hazy clarity of mind, and has worked out that he does actually want to start this conversation. Someone ought to.]
Hey, talking with Akechi reminded me of something--don't worry, this isn't about ethics at all. It's about some of the recent quests, and things I've seen and heard and felt on them.
The first time I went to Icefall Lake, before we named it that, it was with Anasui and Guilmon. The Lakebed Ruins we found, they had mosaic floors, tiled to look like a map created by some Pokemon flying overhead. Except, they changed, when you looked away. You'd look back and instead of forest surrounding where the Bay ought to be, there'd be desert. Or the volcano would be gone.
[His mental voice grows quieter, a little less certain as he goes to explain the next bit.]
I remember at one point, the thought ran through my head, "Which world is the world we exist in? Which world does the world exist in?" And now that I look back, I'm not really sure that thought came from inside my own head.
I'm interested in hearing what else people have encountered, either on their original expeditions or while wayfinding in the three regions.
(ooc: Please feel free to crosstalk and threadjack one another on this post. I just wanna get this stuff 'on the table' to discuss.)

[He's listening. Of course, since neither are psychic types, so could anyone else, but he's not going to point that out right now.]

I don't want to weird you out. But I think that is what could be happening here.
no subject
[Or maybe a jackal? Or a Set animal? He's not sure. He's a Lucario.]

[ He thinks of the dead Watrel in Firepaw's jaws. ]
A ghost is haunting my apartment and he's leaking some kind of nightmare world everywhere.
no subject
[It's not that he doubts the truth of this, he's willing to believe whatever people here say about their worlds. But this is Fucked Up.]
That sounds like a lot to have to deal with, man.
no subject
[He feels so guilty for being relieved to be here. Eileen and the whole world are waiting on him to do something heroic! Augh!]
