It's a little weird, right?

I've seen some pretty weird things, and this definitely takes the cake.

[mingling]

Okay.
If I were the only one who thought it was weird, it would be the weirdest thing that ever happened to me.

[yaylungcancer]

I'm sure someone here probably thinks this is normal, but my guess is that the majority of us are equally freaked out by it.

[mingling]

[Well what did they expect, Natsume's thinking, oddly exasperated by this. But...]

I guess they felt like we were hoping for this

[yaylungcancer]

That did seem to be the case when I was asking the first guard I encountered about it.

[mingling]

[Natsume, for his part, booked it as soon as he was able. Opening his mouth to ask questions would have been prudent, yet instead... . . . . . .]

What kinds of things did you ask?

[yaylungcancer]

My first question was how to get home, which is how I found out that they were shocked I didn't want to be here. Then I asked what I was supposed to do now that I was here.

[He'd, of course, asked both questions in a very... Colorful manner.]

[mingling]

[...Wow, so it could have been that easy. And yet Natsume just wandered off after receiving basic instructions.]

How did they answer?

[yaylungcancer]

Apparently my name is on some list to get sent back, but there's no timeframe on that.

And I got told where I'm staying, and that I should probably find a job. Not really what I was expecting to do while I'm here, but it's not like I was expecting to be here at all.

[mingling]

It's good if you can go home

I'm sure we're just meant to try and do what we can

[How... overarchingly vague. He's not sure what to say, even as he thinks, I want to go, too, but maybe I shouldn't, maybe I shouldn't have been there in the first place.]

I was able to get a flyer
For working

[yaylungcancer]

I'm not really sure I believe that anyone in charge of this place is working to send any of us home.

[mingling]

You don't think they want to help?
Sometimes helping goes pretty wrong

[yaylungcancer]

I just don't believe anyone would spend the time and resources to bring people to a place like this and also be willing to send them back just because they're not happy that they ended up here.
