[whiteshroud]

A few questions:

1) For those who just arrived in Vitae: Where were you before and what year was it?

2) For those who live in Vitae: How long have you lived here and before receiving this app, have you ever had an experience that you'd describe as unexplainable by science or "supernatural"?

3) Please tell me which of these brands are familiar to you:
- a) Duel Monsters, Magic: The Gathering, Vantage Masters
- b) Rolex, Kronos Orden, TimeKeepers Inc
- c) Xiphone, Apple

Thank you.

you too ?
you still got id from it ?
cause i do but when some dudes from the app tried looking online nothing came up :(

uh
never seen a pack of cards besides the one you play like
poker with
they got a name ?
my phones uh

[a pause, as he turns it over to check.]

samsung
i think

[whiteshroud]

I do. But it's in Japanese so no one's looked too closely at it.

[Which does make things easier, honestly.]

Poker cards...those I'm familiar with, and I think they exist on this Earth too. [So that's good]

Samsung. Can't say I'm familiar, but I'll make a note of it. Thank you.

man thats lucky
mine looks the same as the mass ids they got here so i think theyre just gonna think i got a fake one :(

no problem dude !
you looking to buy some new shit or something ?

[whiteshroud]

Oh yeah...that's a pain. Good luck with that?

No, not exactly. I'm testing something.
I have a theory that some of us who got brought to Vitae came from different versions of Earth.

[tothemetal]

its fine !
people used to think it was fake a lot of the time anyway so im used to it :)

[obnoxiously tall people problems......]

what like
scifi shit ? ? ?

[whiteshroud]

I see...
Sounds like a hassle.

And yeah, something like that.

[tothemetal]

its not as bad as it was when i was like
a teenager
but i guess shits always harder when youre that age haha

shit thats fucking crazy
and you can really tell with just card games ?
fucking nuts

[whiteshroud]

Is it? I'm 16 so being a teenager is all I know.

Haha, it's not like I'm sherlock holmes or anything.
It's just when one guy insists there's a very popular trading card game that no one's heard of, and then no one's here has heard of the popular card game I know about, even online.
And there's a bunch of other popular brands and products that don't line up the same way....
Alternate universes feels like the most logical explanation.

[tothemetal]

oh shit really ?
youre real smart though dude
probably wont have too many problems when you get older ! haha :)

mean
when you put it that way it sounds real simple
but if it was me i wouldve just figured it was just shit from a different state
you know ?
so dont try and brush it off so much ! !
youre really working hard man

[whiteshroud]

Haha, thanks. I'm sure you would've figured it out eventually though!

Still if the theory of alternate worlds is true
That's going to make getting back to where we were before even more difficult.

[tothemetal]

[Styx highly doubts he would have come closer to figuring out any part of a conundrum like that, complex as it was. but who gives a shit about his own limitations? if life has taught him anything it's that this is an extremely boring subject, and so he makes no attempt to protest and thus extend it.]

you think so ?
cant we just uh
you know
pop back into the hole we fell out of ?

[whiteshroud]

We could, but that'd require finding the hole.
And praying it hasn't shifted in destination.

[tothemetal]

well i mean
shit like thats always real big and uh
shimmery ?
in movies and shit
so maybe we should start with that
?
