[Yuri's back in her own world, sitting in a very much not ruined room. Through the windows are no signs of a desert, either. Looks like everything's back to normal.]

So it was just a virus, then.

[She sighs, looking tired and relieved at the same time.]

I had hoped my first virus would be... different, but it can't be helped. I must admit I'm still concerned, though. It wasn't real this time, but the scenario wasn't impossible. I can't help but think it was all too probable to just be something the community pulled out of thin air.

Of course, I could simply be overthinking things. I should simply be happy the world is okay.


Ah, Minazuki-san, I have to thank you for getting me out of the desert. I don't want to think about what would have happened if I'd stayed there.


[Locked to Yayoi]

So, um...

...

Would it be too much to hope that I simply... imagined our conversation?

Re: [locked]

[fightbymoonlight]

Oh... oh dear. And you... discovered this yourself?

Ah, mid-terms for you already? I still have a bit to go before that. My timeline seems to move a bit slower than yours for some reason.

That's quite the coincidence, isn't it?

Re: [locked]

[pikapikapikarin]

Yeah, I did. It was kind of eye-opening to be honest.

Just for the spring semester. It's the middle of May for me.

It is. Our whole team are actually in the same class together.

[oceanicbutterfly]

It's no problem. I'm just glad everything is over.

Re: [locked]

[fightbymoonlight]

I can imagine. I'll... try not to search for anything, then.

Hm... You are going faster, but only slightly. I shouldn't think too much about it, though.

That's definitely a big coincidence. You're very lucky.

[fightbymoonlight]

As am I. I take it not all of the viruses are like that?

[oceanicbutterfly]

Not at all. Typically, they're much more straightforward.

Re: [locked]

[pikapikapikarin]

If you really do need images, I can direct you to various family friendly news sites from our world. They have some pictures taken from the newspapers there.

Just a little? That's not bad then. It's not too much then.

I know! It was really nice to know my friends were all Precure.

Re: [locked]

[fightbymoonlight]

I'll keep that in mind if I ever need images. For now I should be alright, though. But thank you for the offer.

Indeed. Seeing how messed up time is for some people on here, we're pretty lucky.

You must work well together as a team if you're all friends.

Re: [locked]

[pikapikapikarin]

Okay great. And don't hesitate to ask since I've got a few saved up from newspapers.

Definitely. And some people have been repeating years or going for ages too.

Hehe, well, yeah. We work together well, but succeeding as a team is another story.

[fightbymoonlight]

I thought as much. I guess I was simply bad luck that it ended up being my first virus.

[oceanicbutterfly]

Exceptionally bad luck, yes. That was one of the worst ones yet.

How are you doing now?

Re: [locked]

[fightbymoonlight]

I hope that won't happen for either of us. I can't imagine having to go through a year multiple times.

That's simply a matter of time, I think. Practice makes perfect.

[fightbymoonlight]

I'm... doing a lot better. It was very surreal to suddenly find myself back home with everything intact. I never thought I'd ever feel so relieved to see my school.

I'm still worried about the possibility this could happen for real, but... I suppose that's more something for the Precure to take care of, isn't it?

Re: [locked]

[pikapikapikarin]

I know, it wouldn't be good if I was stuck in Middle School all my life.

Yeah, we need to stop um... failing... less...

[oceanicbutterfly]

If they're anything like the ones in my world, you can count on them to handle it.

...actually, that's something we should discuss. Do you remember me telling you about Nagisa-san and I being from the same world and not knowing it?

Re: [locked]

[fightbymoonlight]

That'd be very tiring. I wish there was some way to prevent such a loop from happening in the first place.

You'll get there, Yayoi-san.

Re: [locked]

[pikapikapikarin]

We're trying to find a way to prevent it. Or fix our timeline really.

Thanks Yuri-san.

[fightbymoonlight]

I hope so... From what I've seen, they're not very capable.

Ah, yes, actually. Seeing as there are Precure in your world, you think that's also true for us?

Re: [locked]

[fightbymoonlight]

I see. How is that going?

It's no problem.

[oceanicbutterfly]

They're probably just beginners. Everyone has to start somewhere.

So far every Precure we've heard of through the community has been from my world, no matter how different it seemed. And there was never any evidence against us being in the same world, except during a virus--and viruses play by their own rules.

Re: [locked]

[pikapikapikarin]

It's coming along, but nothing's come up yet that could very well fix it.

Thanks.

[fightbymoonlight]

I guess so. I hope they improve before anything powerful shows up, though.

I see. I already know Yayoi-san and I are from the same world but in different times, but I hadn't confirmed the same with anyone else. If every Precure so far has been from the same world, though, it would only make sense it's the same this time.

Re: [locked]

[fightbymoonlight]

If there's any way I could be of assistance, please let me know.

Re: [locked]

[pikapikapikarin]

Of course, thank you very much. I'll keep you updated.

[oceanicbutterfly]

You're not alone in that.

Kise-san was familiar with Cures from my world, so that proves it. So, greetings from Minato, I suppose.
