[accidental video - canon update]

[symbolofhappiness]

[The video opens up in a hospital room. There's four girls, three of them in hospital beds. On one side of the room are a girl with blue hair and one with brown hair. On the other side is Setsuna, who's sitting by the bed of a blonde girl. Judging from the tarot cards Setsuna is laying out, she's in the middle of fortune telling. The blonde, Love, is looking at the cards very seriously.]

How is it? Did something change?

[Setsuna looks up from her cards and smiles.] It may be painful now, but you should work hard on both.

Really?

Yes.

Thanks, Setsuna! I feel full of energy now! [The other girls don't look as enthusiastic as Love, though. In fact, they look downright skeptical.]

Hey, Setsuna-san... Didn't you tell us to pick one over the other?

Why did our fortunes change so much?

[Setsuna turns to the other girls, still smiling.] Fortunes are fluid. They change over time. They don't remain the same forever.

Oh? It's like us.

Eh? [Setsuna turns back to Love, surprised.]

Sometimes we have fun, sometimes we feel sad. Sometimes we love each other, sometimes we don't. We're forever changing.

Ah... Right.

Okay! I'll eat a lot, regain my energy and work hard! [Love gives Setsuna a thumbs up.] Come watch the dance contest, Setsuna!

[Setsuna smiles.] Of course.

[With that, Setsuna says goodbye to the girls and leaves the room. Once the door is closed behind her, her smile is gone immediately, replaced by an annoyed frown.]

Hmph. Like I really care about that pointless contest. Honestly... [Setsuna starts walking, still oblivious to the fact that she's being recorded.] Such a foolish, naive girl. [She smirks.] Well, no matter. If she wants to tire herself out, that's fine with me.

[And on that ominous note, the video ends.]

[OOC Note: Red is Setsuna, pink is Love, blue is Miki and yellow is Inori.]

[Jin is back in his normal clothing now, and while he's mostly serious, he's pretty non-judgmental. In fact, he seems more interested in the fragments of the Go-Protectors he's working on.]

Rough day?

[symbolofhappiness]

...something like that, sure. And it's not really getting better now that the community's decided to record this.

[boostup4beetbuster]

Well, you get through it little by little. If you need to talk, well, I'm a better listener than J at any rate.

[symbolofhappiness]

There's nothing to talk about.

[boostup4beetbuster]

No problem. But if you're ever in trouble or need anything, just call.

[symbolofhappiness]

...why do you even care?

[boostup4beetbuster]

Because about 90% of the people I've ever cared about in my life might as well be dead. So for purely selfish reasons, I take care of that last 10% I don't want to lose.

[symbolofhappiness]

You should find a better 10% then. [She just can't deal with all these people caring... She'd rather just have them be angry at her.]

[boostup4beetbuster]

No such luck. I mean, really. I've got J. My standards are pretty low.

[symbolofhappiness]

...You're both idiots, though.

[boostup4beetbuster]

[There is absolutely NO shame in this man.]

Yep.

[symbolofhappiness]

Most people wouldn't really admit that.

[boostup4beetbuster]

Am I most people?

[symbolofhappiness]

...okay, you've got a point there.
