Definitely.

We'll make them regret ever messing with us.

[explodosafe]

Anytime! I might have lost my appearance and even my name, but I wont be able to call myself a man if I can't even do that much for my friends!

We'll stay friends, even if one of us forgets - promise!

[invocate]

Yes, we will stay friends.

Retrospec changed your name?

[akatatai]

I doubt I'll be visiting HK anytime soon, but thanks!
Instead I'll just visit Expressive

[explodosafe]

Yeah. Seems like I uh didn't go by Eijirou Kirishima until a couple of weeks ago. Like when I picked up my provisional hero license I seem to have switched back names? It's pretty weird when I actually say it.

[invocate]

It IS much closer.

[invocate]

I am not sure I follow. Your name is different now? I know other-me has a different name than I do, but are you saying Retrospec can change our actual names here?

[explodosafe]

Well, yes and no? It's not like it changed suddenly on all my documents or something, but I can't seem to remember to react to it half of the time, it's weird to describe. Like getting that used to being called by your nickname that you have to stop and think when somebody actually uses your real one for once maybe?

[akatatai]

Yeah, no kidding
Then I'll see you there sometime!

[invocate]

That is very strange. Are you okay?

[because feeling like you've forgotten your own name must feel a little distressing]

[explodosafe]

Ironically? Yeah. All this time I've been really scared of losing myself and now that I'm barely resembling the dude that came to Recolle some months ago I just feel ...idk, fine but in the ok sense? It's cool, some strange looks and school getting a bit awkward when I forget to react when the teachers call my name aside. I almost feel a little cheated.

[invocate]

Yeah, the teachers are still making comments about my hair.

Cheated? In what way?

[explodosafe]

Your hair? No way, don't say they messed with yours too!

Cheated in the way that I was- I dunno, it felt like a really big deal to me. Losing myself, or - I dunno! But now it's happened and I don't even have my original name anymore and everything just feels like it always did.

In stories that's where some big reveal or twist happens. -_-

[invocate]

Yes. It is dark green now. And almost waist length.

Ah. It was anticlimactic then.

[thank you Mr Nelson for that word!]

Although, with everything that has happened, maybe it is best if we do not ask for more trouble.

[explodosafe]

[and just like that he's bursting out in a laugh on his side]

Dark green?! Are you sure you're not Midoriya's long lost secret sister or something? 'Cause he has exactly that hair color in my memories too!

And I agree, although I'm also itching to start being more active now that I've got my powers and bearings of what I've been doing before back! It's not manly for a hero to sit back and just watch after all! I gotta work on bettering myself and going out to help people!

Not sure if I'm supposed to congratulate you on the new length of your hair or not. Do you like it that long?

[invocate]

Well, the girl in my memories, Lenalee, she does have a brother, but he's older than her.

It is good that you feel ready though! I have been working with her weapon the last couple months. I think the next time there is trouble, I will be able to help.

I am still getting used to the length, but I do like it.

[explodosafe]

Can ages switch between our memories and people showing up here?

That's awesome news! Let's fight stuff together the next time something comes up! I want to see you in action!

Congratulations, then! It's good when the changes actually work out for you! I've gotten pretty fond of my red looks as well. I know it's just a color, but it makes me feel really passionate! I bet your long hair is making you really pretty too! You can be like one of those battle goddesses, a valkyrie or something!

[invocate]

I do not know. That would be really strange though...

[More strange than your hair turning green or remembering a past life where she fought monsters? Really, Li-Na.]

Sure, the next time there is something to fight, I will message you.

[proceeds to go into the subway tunnels with Noah and fights a subway car, sorry]

A valkyrie? Like in the Wagner opera?

[explodosafe]

Everything that has to do with retrospec and our other lives is pretty strange, though.

Yes! They are the female warriors who come and get the vikings when they get defeated, right?!

[invocate]

Something like that. They take the souls of fallen heroes to Valhalla.

[the extent of Li-Na knowledge of Norse mythology is pretty much limited to what little she knows about this opera lol]

retrospec cont -- haru

[invocate]

[from here]

I am learning how. Do you use a weapon?

[gunsandveggies]

I use an axe, yes!

And something else. It's like magic, but different!

[invocate]

An axe? That is cool!

I have armored boots.

[they're really neat! she promises!]

Like magic but different?

[gunsandveggies]

Armored boots? Oh, I'd love to see them! Do you kickbox with them?

[They sound neat! She genuinely wants to see what they're like!]

Mmhmm! You'd have to see to find out. :D

[Mostly, she knows she shouldn't publicly talk about Personas.]

[invocate]

Well, I do kick things with them.

Do you go to the weapons practice? We could meet up there.
