Observation 7 - Pick a card, any card!

[originalnumber]

 [Action - 630 Topper]

Astral is sitting on the floor of the living room using the coffee table to draw on it looks like; numerous sheets of card are littered (albeit 'neatly') around him, some of them decorated with statistics and blank squares and others completed with fully rendered monsters of some sort.

At the moment, he seems to be drawing something that looks like this, before staring at it a moment and sighing.

"Hahhhh..." Remembering all the cards he saw in his world just isn't the same as actually having them here... But it's just not fun to have the deck of real cards and be unable to use them...

[Phone]

Hello? Does anyone happen to know of a proper material for use in colouring on card? I don't want to ruin any of the drawings I've made thus far, but I would like to add some colour to them...

Also, when it is done, I should have enough cards to make a variety of 'duel monsters decks', provided they do not vanish without warning. They of course will not work with a d-pad when I have it returned, but if anyone is interested in a tabletop card game, I will gladly join them.

Yeah.....that doesn't help much.


Actually it just makes it worse.....her culture is ...very different.

[originalnumber]

"Ah? Is that so?"

Hoh... "Perhaps then, I am fortunate in that regard."

[sarcasmandbooks]

Probably.

Always learnt new holidays though.

....Guess we won't be having Blorthog day this year. With just me and Beast Boy here.

[originalnumber]

"Well... I'm sure that there are some Japanese Holidays I could share..." Ahhh...

"...Blorthog day..?"

[sarcasmandbooks]

A festival for the celebration of friendships.

[originalnumber]

"Ahhh..." ...Sounds like something he'd enjoy. Or...

"...It sounds like a holiday that Yuuma would quite like." Hnnn...

[sarcasmandbooks]

A friend of yours?

[originalnumber]

He nods.

"Aah. He is the one who bears the key which brought me into his realm- it is possible that, in the process, he was also the one to scatter my memories unintentionally."

[sarcasmandbooks]

How would he have managed to do that?

[originalnumber]

"We are both uncertain- all he knows is that the key, which is clearly of my realm's origin, was given to him by his father... He later had dreams concerning a doorway, which was unlocked with this key. However, he additionally stated that he had found himself surrounded by cards briefly after this...

"Mere moments after, they scattered."

[sarcasmandbooks]

Strange

[originalnumber]

"It is. I try not to question it often however- Yuuma is indeed as clueless about it as I am, after all."

[sarcasmandbooks]

I guess you'll just have to collect all of them then.

[originalnumber]

"Aah. That was our goal!" He smiles somewhat, before frowning.

"...A part of me worries however, on what will happen when they are all gathered. The thought did not occur in my own realm, but I suppose that now that I am here..." Well, there's no point in looking HERE, is there? So the drive to gather them isn't nearly as strong, he supposes.

[sarcasmandbooks]

What do you mean?

[originalnumber]

"...One of the cards- '96, Black Mist'... He was able to gain the support of all but one of the numbers while we met within the key. He claimed that he was acting toward a purpose I had forgotten..."

[sarcasmandbooks]

And that's bad?

[originalnumber]

"He seemed quite determined to destroy the entirety of the planet... So unfortunately, yes."

...Yea that does sound bad, uh.

[sarcasmandbooks]

Did he say you had been working towards it as well?

[originalnumber]

"Yes and no." Eh?

"He claimed that it was the very reason I had come to it. However, as I said- the moment I did reach the Earthen realm, I lost all memories of my prior existence... And what I've since reclaimed serves neither as an argument for or against it." Damn that ambiguity..!
