[The screen turns on, showing a girl with dark green hair, two golden-colored eyes... and a single bat wing growing out of her shoulder. Yes, just one.]

... Hey. My name's Jasmine Tsukuyomi, and I arrived here about a month ago. I'm still trying to figure out what I'm going to be doing here, but uh... well, I guess I'll start with what I'm all about.

My sister and her wife already put something up, and I'm here with my girl Marina as well. Nice that we got a room to ourselves, didn't really want to have to find a way to work around that. But mostly, I want to be of help and fix things in this castle so we can all go home as soon as possible. I'm pretty strong, so if anyone needs something punched, or blown up, or heavy lifting taken care of, I'm available. As for other skills... well, I'm an artist and a writer, but I imagine that won't be much help here.

I've got the whole "knowing people with and memories of past lives" thing going on too, so if I seem weirdly familiar with stuff, that's the reason why.

[She thinks for a moment, and then just sighs, sounding a bit defeated.]

Has anyone else been able to wrap their heads around the whole "worrying about the people you care about back home" thing? I'm dealing with it, I just... want to know what everyone else thinks about that kind of thing. This is my first time doing the "shunted into another world" thing.

What if you accepted the narrative that because time is stopped completely, and Ozuma-san and his god would return you that exact point, that no one would even miss you back home?

[ He's not totally confirmed that's the case or anything, but... that was the situation in Luceti, so that's the cognitive device he has. ]

But mah, mah, Jasmine-san! I'm not sure you should sell being a writer short! In fact, a good opinion piece or even a fanfic or five might improve our lot!

[It's not Sakura's first instinct to use the network, even though she has passing familiarity with the technology. Thus she's only halfway listening to Jasmine until the very last part.

... Oh yes, she is turning old pro at worrying over the people she's left behind, so much that it prompts her to give a response.]

I think -- [A pause, looking to give the least offensive statement she can] -- everyone must be worrying about their family and friends, so you're not alone.

But I also think it's better to hope they're okay, waiting for us, too.

TA: knowiing people from pa2t liive2
TA: that 2ound2 famiiliiar
TA: 2ort of
TA: tru2t me you aren't the only one two worry about people back home
TA: ii ju2t got here thii2 month and ii'm pretty worriied two

i try not to think about the people in my world

[He tries, but he still thinks about them. He's thinking about them right now, which is why he's hiding behind text for this conversation.]

there's file storage on the network if you want to publish your work here

i'm going to be taking it with me when we're done here so when you go home you can say that your work has been published in three universes

[Link really doesn't want to talk about past lives right now. Maybe when he's settled a bit from having that massive bombshell dropped on him the first day, he can actually speak to others who know a thing or two about it, but for right now he just wants to forget that there's another version of him in the castle.

The original version at that.

He can focus on something else though.]

I'm used to not seeing people I care about for long stretches of time. It's worrying, but it makes me work all the faster to get whatever my current objective is finished so I can go see them again.

[Usually for a short period of time before he's off to another mission again.

A hero's work is never done.]

Ozuma indicated to me that stopping the darker powers here would ensure safety in other worlds. I don't know how that's possible but if we're able to be here, I can't really argue that their forces couldn't go to our homes, too.
