Third Miracle

[beamiracle]

Well, it seems that the effects of our Christmas presents have worn off. Mine has too. For those of you who were kind enough to help me when I'd lost my memory, my name is Ushiromiya Lion, and you have my thanks for your concern.

Also, I know this may seem like a rather trivial thing to say considering our circumstances, but...Happy New Year, everyone. I hope this year we can find new opportunities. Like getting out of here.

[Filtered to any Ushiromiyas that Lion has spoken to]

Does anyone mind if I come over to visit? I think New Year's should be spent with family, no matter the, ah...situation, as it were.

[Action]

[Lion will be headed to the bakery to pick up some cake, figuring he might as well celebrate New Year's somehow even if it's here in Mayfield. Feel free to bump into him on the way there or the way back!]

[ If Lion enters Mayfield's charming bakery, he will find that there is not much cake left, except those that look kind of...morbid. Like funerals, and scythes, and...stuff like that. The person at the counter looks like she's counting money out, but is really just building towers with some gold coins. ]

Oh, hi there~! Did you want to buy something? We're having a sale, everything's at least 10% off. That's a fair deal, I've never seen souls get mass discounts like this, it's incredible. Hahaha.

[Lion will conveniently overlook the fact that Komachi's clearly slacking off, but the morbid cakes do merit attention.]

Good morning. That does sound like a good deal...

[Looks them over.]

[rivercrossed.livejournal.com]

It sure is! We've got a lot of stuff left over from Christmas, see. Luckily, I...didn't have to go to work then! [ For a number of reasons. ]

Anything you liiike?

[beamiracle.livejournal.com]

Hmm... [Takes a few with some scythes on them. At least they're not quite as morbid...] These will be fine.

[politerudeness.livejournal.com]

... Ushiromiya... Lion-san?

[beamiracle.livejournal.com]

Yes. Is something the matter?

1/3

[politerudeness.livejournal.com]

Could... could this be? Could this really be true?!

[politerudeness.livejournal.com]

S-so quickly...! Ah, just in time for EP8...!

3/4 ahahah I'm sorry....

[politerudeness.livejournal.com]

...No! I must not! I absolutely mustn't think of EP8, and the fact that I was not present during Comiket to buy it...!

OKAY DONE

[politerudeness.livejournal.com]

Ah, Ryukishi-sama, please forgive me! I promise, that when I return home, I shall buy it, and play it all day long...!

[badend-replay.livejournal.com]

mi? Ushiromiya?

... nyao. Do you know Battler, sir?

[beamiracle.livejournal.com]

Yes, I do. He's my cousin.

[badend-replay.livejournal.com]

...

I see! It is nice to meet you, Lion! I am Rika Furude!
I am glad to meet another relative of Battler, I surely am!

[tsundorapettan.livejournal.com]

... Sure, go ahead. I wanna know what my Alternate Universe Older...[ brother? sister? ] Sibling-sama looks like.

[beamiracle.livejournal.com]

Fair enough. You're on Brady Lane, aren't you?

[tsundorapettan.livejournal.com]

Yeah, 335 Brady Lane. See you soon?

[roadroller]

Uh, you lost your memory and then got it back?

Huh...

That sounds complicated. When I delete something from my memory, it's gone for good, you know? ♪

[beamiracle.livejournal.com]

Yes, apparently Santa's gift to me was to take away my memory. I had no idea who I was or anything about my life up until now, but I got it back a few days ago...

[roadroller]

Oh, Santa struck again.... ♪

[at least, she's found that happening to one of her housemates. Rin herself tried to have a Christmas at home so as not to die miserably.]

I guess that's a pretty harmless prank, but this Santa really missed the point. ♪

You doing anything cool for new year, Lion-san?

[sue-of-truth.livejournal.com]

...Ushiromiya Lion? I don't know anyone by that name.

[beamiracle.livejournal.com]

That's not surprising. Though there is an explanation...

[sue-of-truth.livejournal.com]

I thought I had all the mysteries of that family straightened out, but if there's another...

Of course, you may just be lying.

[glompedbystakes.livejournal.com]

Ushiromiya...?

[beamiracle.livejournal.com]

Yes. You're Sakutaro, aren't you?

[glompedbystakes.livejournal.com]

Uryu...

But... Maria never mentioned Lion... Maria knows all the Ushiromiyas...
