[Life has a way of being weird. Really weird and ironic. Death manages to top that. Because when Goroh suddenly finds himself breathing again, he opens his eyes to see the forest above. He was in the heat of battle. Hazama was attacking. That girl was nearby. He could have ignored it, but he didn't. He jumped in at the last moment, taking the blow. And then it went dark. And now he was here. In the woods. Feeling extremely uncomfortable. After a moment, he realized where he was. You've got to be fucking kidding me.

After spending about twenty minutes going over in his mind what happened and trying to figure out what he's lost as a result, he opens up his journal and decides to be conversational.]

Turns out dying is overrated as hell. It's got nothing on the Poripotian Space Flu. Not sure why people make a big damn deal out of it.

Damn. I could really use a smoke though.

[For awhile, Goroh will just be out in the forest answering his journal. He's sitting in front of a bath tub. In the middle of the forest. That he arrived in. Somehow the irony of it is amusing enough to make him not mind dying so much.]

(ooc: Also, this is forward dated to the middle of Monday in the afternoon.]

Thought I'd have a private bath. Didn't expect any perverted kids to come spying on me.

But, um... there isn't any water to fill it with.

There's a stream nearby. Just gotta haul the bath tub a little further towards it and fill it up.

Why not just take a bath in your house instead of going to all of this trouble?

[Goroh stands up to stare this little punkass kid down.]

You saying something's wrong with my bathing habits?

[Eeep.]

N-no, that's not what I meant!

If I wanted washing advice from some mop headed kid, I would have asked.

I-I'm sorry, I was just curious--

Curiosity has a way of getting people hurt.

[Totally backing away now.]

[Now he's laughing.]

... w-wait, what's so funny?

Who the hell takes a bath in the middle of the fucking forest, kid? Use your brain. The damn Mallies brought me back in porcelain. Ol' Catherine must have a twisted sense of humor.

How was I supposed to know that? It's not like I even knew you'd been kidnapped in the first place. I just saw the bathtub in the middle of the forest.

It's called deduction, Mophead. What kind of moron hauls a bathtub in the middle of the forest without even bothering to bring his sword or gun?

Well, um... hey wait, my name is Emil, not Mophead.

Didn't ask, don't care. How're the terrorists treating you?

I haven't seen any of them at all. Are you sure they were even here in the first place? I think someone else would've noticed them if they were...

Oi. Never heard of television, have you?

We didn't have those in my world.

They're fictional, kid.

I know that now, but how was I supposed to know when you told me about terrorists?

[Goroh taps his head.]

Keep working on that whole 'thinking' angle. You'll get it eventually.

H-hey, I'm not stupid! Okay, so I don't know about a lot of things, and sometimes I say stuff without thinking, but that doesn't mean I'm dumb!

I never said you were, Mophead. You just need to think more and not just believe any shit somebody feeds you.

[As he says this, he sits back down in front of the tub.]
