[ 1 | Like a week before everyone finds out they're going to Jhashch:]

hey, what kind of stuff have you guys seen? anything photo worthy?? i wanna see your pics!

[ 2 | And like an hour later, he adds another message. Yes, these are technically separate posts.]

quick question!!
where are you guys from?
bonus points if it isn't earth (but earth is ok too obv!)

[ 3 | And then again, though this one is at least a few days later:]

It does seem odd that it would differ even among people who know each other, but when all of time and space is involved, it's difficult to guess at how it works.

Joining up together doesn't even seem to be an option!

[millimeter]

yeah, it's a lot to take in
def a bigger scale than anything i'm used to
i'd never even heard of earth before i joined cost

what really??
wow
i'd never even thought about that tbh

[doublejumps]

There are three others here who I know from home. We all joined separately.

Really, you'd never heard of Earth? (・о・) Where are you from?

[millimeter]

do any of them remember joining??

and yeah, i'm from eos! haven't met anyone here who's heard of it :\
besides my friend, obv

[doublejumps]

No, none from my group. (´・ω・｀)

I haven't heard of it either, I'm sorry to say. Can you tell me what it's like? ヾ(＾∇＾)

[millimeter]

that can't be reassuring
but so the last thing you guys remember
do they all line up? like from the same time

but sure!
it's not TOO different from earth, afaict
the pics i've seen remind me of eos sometimes
we def have a lot of different animals tho, like we have spiracorns instead of horses
and it doesn't seem nearly as big as earth
there were SO many countries in the briefing for gallipoli, idk how you'd even start to keep track of them all

[doublejumps]

I'm not sure, actually. (・・；)
We were all living in different parts of the world, so it'd difficult to compare notes on that.

Oh, what are spiracorns? They sound interesting! ▼ω▼
And yes, there are a lot of countries to keep track of, and it gets even more complicated when you get into the states and territories and prefectures of certain countries. It's what I'm used to, but I can see how it would be overwhelming! ⚆ᗝ⚆

[ Could he name all fifty states of the USA? Probably not. It's fine. ]

[millimeter]

ohh
well that sucks
dates don't help?

spiracorns are kind of like if you took a horse and plated in it armor with a pair of big spiraling horns
in case you weren't sure if it looked intimidating enough
they're p big too, bigger than the horses i've seen
but seems like that's the case for a lot of earth animals!

and yeah
we have a lot of smaller territories but not that many big ones
what country are you from??

[doublejumps]

We haven't gotten around to comparing dates yet.
I'll need to investigate further! (ง •̀ω•́)ง✧

[ Their group meeting-slash-briefing had been rife with startling revelations. Not the best moment to start puzzling out timelines. ]

Interesting! It sounds like some of the things I've seen here.

I'm from Japan! (๑>ᴗ<๑) Have you heard of it?

[millimeter]

good luck, dude!! 🤘

i have! i've met a couple people from there actually
in asia right??
must be a pretty big country

[doublejumps]

Thank you! (^^)v

And yes, it's rather large, although Japan itself is actually an island!

[millimeter]

oh cool!! i've only been to an island once
it was one of the prettiest places i've ever seen

do you get to travel a lot??
i mean ig we all get to now lol
but before!

[doublejumps]

Yes, many parts of Japan are very beautiful. (♥ω♥*)

I have traveled a lot, yes! I did so for my job for a while, then went on my own journey after that, before settling in a remote location in the mountains.
