[Private | ~~99% Hackable~~ new filter at 70% ]
So much bloodshed. The clown named Kefka and now Vash-san. It's forbidden to get involved in private fights, but things like this make me wonder. How far should I follow the Code here? Is it considered protecting the people to take arms as a captain, or is it merely foolish of me to assume they even need protecting? Do I even have the strength to help?

The people here fight with fire and magic, things I can't comprehend. They heal with a touch and kill despite the impermanency of death. I fill my days with training and frivolous pursuits, music and art, helping at the Center, but my heart is heavy. We were men charged with war, with keeping the peace and killing our enemies. These enemies are foreign, worse than the rebels, worse than the foreign evil that came upon our shores and forced us into a treaty at the threat of annihilation.

I have no idea how to fight anymore.

It seems there's quite the commotion going on. Is everyone alright? And has anyone seen Sasarai-san?

Anyway, the Welcome Center is open to help New Feathers, the new arrivals, with adjusting to life here in Luceti. Please feel free to stop by anytime, or call upon myself, Sasarai-san, Martel-san, or anyone else who works at the Center. We can provide lodging and warm food and drink to help you weather the winter. Of course, that goes to anyone! Even those who have been here awhile. It's always nice to see friendly faces, hm?

Hijiri-kun? I'll be by later on to finally take you up on the music lessons, if that is alright with you? I'm afraid I was quite busy with the New Years and all.

All right. I've nothing to do at the moment, so I can visit.

Oh right.

I was wondering, what did you do back home? [Concerning Japanese history and all.]

I lived at a temple and taught swordsmanship. [You're not getting his real job out of him that easy, Kouichi. Sorry, he's decided he wants to change the future, so he needs info from people and you're a prime target.]

I'll put the kettle on then.

Kendo, or something else?

Are you at the center now?

All right. I'll be there in a few minutes. [And with that, he's off to travel.]

Yes, is there something you need?

[Okita's sitting at the center counter, which is lined with painted rocks that resemble people in Luceti. He has a tray out for tea and is reading a book as he waits.]

I wanted to know if you were.

Ah, I see. Well, I'm here. Not doing much, I'm afraid, since the New Feathers seem to be finding their own way fairly well.

That's good, then.

[The journal shuts. She's... coming to find you.]

Yes, that exactly.

...Luna-san? Hello?

[After a while, Alfons arrives, though he does catch sight of those rocks and raise an eyebrow.]

You've been busy, I take it.

[He raises his head and waves a bit, smiling.]
Have to do something in my spare time, yes? How have you been?

Oh... Okay. [Could it be just the same name then?]

Do you practice?

[She'll just be walking in a few minutes later, holding a paper bag. So unconcerned.] Okita?

...Luna-san? Hello there.
[He really should have expected that and yet he's somewhat surprised to see her.]

[Sick, but then that wasn't something new he supposed.]

I've been fine. And you?

Not really.

Yes, how are you?

Oh, same old thing.

Are you here to teach me how to keep people from reading private things?

I'm just fine.

Patchouli-san is back now. Did you go see her?
