First [Re-Intro/"Accidental" Video/Mid-Day March 15th]

[hachikuji]

[So Mayoi is back in Luceti. With all her memories. And it's after Mother's Day again, even though Mothers Day was just about a month or two ago. What a pain, it's like she's traveled backwards in time! Longest summer ever. But, she won't let it get her down a lot. She'll have to catch up with what has gone on. No idea how long it's been since she has been gone, but it can't be that long right?

But, for now, she wants to lift her spirits. She's been dumped in the forest again and with just a sundress and that is no fun for her. Couldn't they dump her somewhere interesting, like a person's bathtub? Lame. Which means it's time for a prank to get the day started.

First the girl ruffles herself up a bit. Her hair dishelved, her appearance somewhat grimy and not looking very good for wear at all. Next she has to put on her sad little girl act. She can do this, she is like Oscar acting material here. Child actors need to get in line. Now time to think of something.......ok got it. Mayoi Hachikuji is ready for her rentrance into Luceti.

So she opens the journal, with the intention to pretend it has accidentally turned itself on to record, and she huddles her arms to her body, looking around and away from the camera and putting on her best "I am a scared little girl" act.]

--Okay relax, you can figure this out. You definitely can figure how you winded up in some creepy forest away from civilization. You need to stay calm and focus! No one gets anything done without focusing and thinking through clearly. That is what all the teachers say. I can do this!

Relax, take a deep breath and don't panic.

[Her mouth opens and she takes in a large breath of air, exhaling it softly, still looking around nervously.]

...That didn't help at all! Television and movies always say that helps and it doesn't! [She closes her eyes tightly and gives a tiny whimper.] What's going on here?! I don't know how to navigate a forest, whose idea of a joke is this?!

[Now to wait for the bait, as she puts on her best fake sad girl facade. Eat your heart out, casting directors that are not currently watching this. A star is born.]

[ Good thing that Ange is deadpan no matter the circumstances, really. Although honestly the little girl factor is probably what helps in making her actually reply to this. ]

It's a pretty lame idea of a joke, I know. It's not too far away from civilization though, if you could call this place that.

[hachikuji]

[Eyetwitch. Mayoi turns her head back and forth, not looking to the journal.]

Huh, who said that? Are you a ghost, strange girl?

[ video ]

[repudiate]

Maybe I am. [ okay, no, Ange, no teasing little kids. ]

No, it's the book talking to you. Or rather, I'm talking to you through the book, believe it or not.

[ video ]

[hachikuji]

[Mayoi looks at the book and gives a toothy grin.]

So there you are, ghost lady. Are you the spirit who shuffles people off the mortal coil then?

[ video ]

[repudiate]

[ For a moment she can't help but wonder if she's stuck as 'ghost lady' now, but her lineface is impeccable. ]

Sorry to disappoint, but I'm actually just a human. Or if you want to go and call me anything special, I guess you could still say 'witch'.

[cuethemasong]

[An innocent (seemingly) harmless looking little girl stuck in the forest?! EATING THIS ALL UP.]

--Rejoice, little girl! For a protagonist has arrived to save you!

[Video]

[hachikuji]

[She stops whimpering and blinks, pretending she has no idea it's coming from the journal.]

Who's there? Who is the protagonist?!

[Video]

[cuethemasong]

It is I, Arata Kasuga! Hero to all girls who are big or small!

[Video]

[hachikuji]

Oh. Ok!

But, where are you?

[Video]

[goldenglasses]

Mayoi!? Is that you? [OH CRAP! She must not remember being here before!] Ahhh! Don't cry! It will be alright! Well, I mean you're kidnapped by scientists but AH! No! I mean! It's not all bad! This is Luceti! There's lots of nice people here and stuff! Don't cry!

[Video]

[hachikuji]

[...Some things never change.]

Your screaming is making me panic only more!

Re: [Video]

[goldenglasses]

Ah! I said DON'T panic!

[Video]

[hachikuji]

PANIC!

[And she lets out a loud shriek.]

[markofthewise]

[That SOUNDS like Mayoi. But it also sounds like she's in distress. And also doesn't remember anything! AND ALSO sounds more like a frightened girl than a prank loving little girl.

Sokka is completely taken in. Maybe this is Mayoi further back in her own timeline. Before she died. Back when she had shits to give.

Well, Sokka has plenty to give too.]

Try and calm down! I'll find you, okay?

[hachikuji]

[...Well here's someone she thought would be gone by now. Or at least she hoped. But his voice sounds...weird. And what's with all the hair. It takes her a moment to even realize it's Sokka.]

No way! I don't need saving from some strange man!

[markofthewise]

[... how terrible, she thinks he's just some strange man.]

I'm not just strange guy, really!

[hachikuji]

You are strange. Just look at that fuzzy beast on your face. Only strange people have so much hair!

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

[Raven's memory might not be that great, but there's something about this girl's voice that he recognizes. He's pretty sure she was sent home a long, long time ago. Regardless, doesn't seem like she has her memories.]

I take it ya don't remember anythin' then? You're in a place called Luceti.

[Voice]

[hachikuji]

[No she totally does remember. But she's going to keep her prank up.]

What don't I remember?

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

[He'll fall for it, for now. Body language tells lies, voice not so much.]

Oh, you were here before, but it was a pretty long time ago now.

[Voice]

[hachikuji]

Was I? How long ago, exactly?

[It could get her an answer. She has no idea how much time has passed yet.]

[voice]

[generalflirt]

A----ah, ah?! Hold on, the breathing might not help but there's another magic which does!

[voice]

[hachikuji]

What magic? Tell me strange voice from above! [She gasps, looking to the sky.] Is that you, God?! Is it?!

[voice]

[generalflirt]

While I have godly abs, I cannot quite boast this! But I shall tell you, fair maiden!

[voice]

[hachikuji]

Then hurry up and say it, the suspense is maddening!
