[ video/action in Nova City near the Bay ]

[secretshoujoart]

I had heard about the things that looked like stars that appeared near the new Bay and wanted to check them out.

[ Nozaki takes the camera off if himself now, showing everything around. he's showing off the hole in the ground, the water, the shining stars in the water ]

I thought that someone had pulled a prank and put coins in there. But they aren't coins. They're lighted stars. But how are they powered?

[ he reaches out, the video still recording. it takes him a couple of tries, but he picks up one of the stars up, turning it around in his fingers and then setting it in his palm for everyone to see. in a matter of seconds, the star dissipates into his hand. holding his hand up afterward, it glows with thousands of stars on it ]

Mikoshiba, I think I've been chosen to be a hero in a game--

[ he stops speaking abruptly, seeing this memory as he drops the phone into the ground beside the hole. he's quiet for a long time, the finally shouts ]

S-Sakura!!

That would explain my good looks. [he looks smug.] Because the villains are always sexier. But it's more like...it's probably closest to an alternate dimension. Or a timeline retcon.

[ eye roll. hush Mikoshiba. THIS ISN'T THE TIME ] Huh... That does sound like it could be like that.

It's more realistic than us not being there.
