[ Day 6 ]

[ Early morning (locked to Tsuzuki) ]

[ The best part of waking up in a body that isn't yours is finding out the company said body keeps when it sleeps. Which is why the first thing that Joshua notices, upon waking up in a place which is distinctly not House 38, is the other person in bed with him. ]

... I think I missed something.

[ And after that fun little interaction resolves itself, Joshua picks up the journal and reaches out to the person it might be a bit important to contact about this. ]

[ 100% filtered to Joshua and Hisoka because he isn't quite sure which is the necessary one in this sort of situation ]

I do hope that my body is over there with you.

[ Morning onwards, open ]

[ Joshua and Hisoka are wandering around town together. But to anyone who knows them, something seems odd... ]

It's rather hard to believe that you wouldn't have any way to make mental defenses.

If you want to figure it out while you're in there, be my guest.

[ Feel free to run into the two of them. Clearly they want to be bothered. ~~At least I'm sure Hisoka does, since he isn't the one with the headache for once.~~ ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[It's a while before there's some reply to that message because Hisoka was having THE BEST SLEEP EVER.]

Seems that way. Guess we'll just have to wait it out.

[ You need better standards. ]

Well, at least I know where it is. What do you plan to do today?

I'd been planning to do whatever I could to avoid the center of town. I'd suggest you do the same now.

And waste this opportunity? Imagine the confusion to be had, hee hee.

[...Don't make that noise Josh. It sounds bizarre coming out of his throat.]

You think you can focus on being a jerk with my body in a crowd of people?

[Have fun puking in a back alley, bro.]

All you need are some better mental walls. [ Never mind that he hasn't tried doing it yet. ]

Yes. I'm sure that's it. I just don't try enough.

I didn't say that. You don't know how.

Feel free to show me up.

[ Joshua giggles. ] It's a date, then.

No. It isn't.

And stop doing that.

... Stop what?

Laughing like that. It sounds weird.

... [ Giggle giggle. Oh Hisoka you're funny. ]

... Have you started heading out yet? It takes a while to get back into town.

[ Sigh. ] So impatient. I'm leaving now.

Looking forward to it.

[ Yeah so about that getting to the center of town thing. That didn't work out quite so well for Josh.

Or, well. A good ten minutes after Joshua should have shown up, he's still making his way there. Slowly.

He's getting some major deja-vu back to his first time in Pork City as a Composer. Except there's less thoughts overall, but he's more susceptible to them. So things are about balanced out. ]

[Hisoka knows that face. He spends a lot of time making it.]

Trouble?

[ Hey. Hey. He's still upright thanks, that's more than he can say for you the first time they met. ]

Actually, your defenses are so poor it's rather impressive.

[He'd just come back from a kidnapping then, thanks.]

I thought you knew how to make them better.

[ Details. ]

Yes, and I'm working on them.

[ And it's working! Or maybe he's just adjusting to the pounding headache. It's hard to tell. ]

It doesn't look like it's doing a very good job of working.

As I said, you have impressively poor defenses. For all we know, I've made large improvements already. I don't exactly know where the baseline is.

I'll let you know when I get my body back.
