You guys had all better be back to normal now.

This last period where people forgot all about their family members, that was another virus, right? Sheesh, I didn't know those things could make people lose their minds. Or their memories, for that matter.

I'm glad I missed that one. I don't need to have any delusions about my family.

Hey, shouldn't someone be looking for a way to prevent these viruses from infecting people? If they're really just viruses, then there's got to be a vaccine.

[Locked to Johnny]

Johnny, the next time you feel like bringing home a strange girl from another world, don't.

Fakes memories and screwy minds, only that can come from the internet.

Hah, I wish I hadn't missed out on this one. Family's a nice ideal, even if it is pretend.

Vaccine, huh? What do you suggest?

I'll have to ask Johnny about that. I don't use the computer very much.

You wanna play pretend and forget all about your real family?

Johnny said some of the people here were scientists. They'd probably know something.

Oh, you know Johnny?

I wouldn't be forgetting much, really.

Hmph, scientists. Yeah, if they're reliable I guess they could be useful.

Yeah, we're partners at his Detective Agency.

...And we're together.

So you don't remember your family?

Most of them aren't very trustworthy, but we just need to keep them in line. With force, if we have to.

Heh, first I've heard of you. I'm glad he's got somebody though.

Does anyone remember anything from their infancy?

Sounds rational.

Who're you? He's never told me about you before. Then again, Johnny didn't tell me about Iris either.

Only if they have the right ability. The shamans in my tribe could summon visions from any time period in their lives, even when they were babies.

Sounds like you've had a bad run-in or two with scientists.

Iris? Dunno. Name's Rutee. I know him through Gaara, we met during the whole Shukaku deal.

'Fraid I'm not one of those shamans.

I don't like many people involved with that sort of thing. Science isn't in my interest.

Oh, you're a friend of that red-haired ninja. You know, he and Johnny thought they were brothers. That was weird; they don't even look anything alike.

Well, I am.

Johnny and I have good reasons not to like them. And it's not mine either. I'm more into the spiritual aspects of life.

Did they? Odd, Gaara's already got siblings. And none of them really look alike either.

Congrats.

You don't say. Spiritual... not my type of deal either. But whatever floats your boat.

I'm Shania, by the way.

Does he? I've never talked to them.

Their hair color is an obvious difference.

All right, so what're you interested in?

Nice to meet you.

Temari's okay, I guess. Cares about her family, which I can't complain about. Haven't talked to Kankurou much, but he seems like a good guy.

Pretty much. Yellow, red, and... I dunno what Kankurou's is, and I don't plan on finding out any time soon.

Gald. To put it simply.

Oh, that's right. Temari's his sister. I talked to her once. She and Johnny were stuck together once because of a virus. Supposedly.

I was talking about Johnny and Gaara. But Gaara's siblings have different hair colors too, huh?

And what's gald?

Oh? Which virus was that?

Ah... Well, yeah, I guess they do have different hair colors. Temari and Johnny could pass of as siblings, I guess...

Money. Moola. Cash. Cha-ching, hun! ♥

The one where people got tied together. That's when I joined this place - Lenny was worried because Johnny just disappeared all of a sudden.

Either their genetics are really unique, or they're not blood-related.

Your money's called gald? That's different.

Hmm... Can't particularly remember that one. Didn't get tied up with anyone, I guess.

I'll go with the unique one. Don't know how Gaara'll react if I say they might not be blood related.

Everything's different. But we're all equal in the eyes of cash.

Lucky you. Johnny was stuck in some village called Konoha for a few days, and then got caught up in a big mess with that Shukaku guy.

You think he'd get mad or something?

If you need money, you should get a job.

...you're still doubting me on that?

((he got pinged by the "supposedly" XD))

Well, Johnny, you have to admit, that was a bit of a shock.

Trust me, it was a shock for everyone. But now you know it was a virus!

So why isn't anyone trying to figure out how to stop these viruses from happening, or finding a way to prevent people from getting infected?

~~It's like Malice all over again.~~ [Typed, then deleted]

Actually, someone did, from what I remember. It was after you joined--you didn't see it?

Ended up with a lot of people's computers getting the more usual virus.

Are you sure? I don't remember reading anything about it.

Your computer didn't get hit by that virus, did it?

Pretty sure. But we didn't get hit.

It's your computer, too. I mean, we both use it.

"Normal"? You know something about this place I don't?

Hey, you know what I meant. Normal compared to the times when you guys are being tricked by viruses.

Not sure. What do you know?

In my defense, when I brought her home, she WASN'T a "strange girl". She was my sister. In my head, anyways. And--yeah, I know that whole thing was really weird, I feel bad about it, ~~I hope I didn't add another crime to her record~~ and I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable. ...Which I probably did since I wouldn't believe you about Grace and Dad.

...That virus did make things complicated, but it felt kind of nice.

((Strikes = not there. I'm not sure Johnny would tell Shania he brought Iris from prison. XD;;; Still trying to decide if she should know what happened there or not.))

So the strange looks that Lenny and I were giving you didn't sink into your head?

Nice? Johnny, I thought you loved your father and your... sister.

Honestly, I thought you were both off your rockers.

...I do.

Lenny thought someone might've slipped you a drug. One of the neighborhood thugs or something, I guess.

Why are you saying it felt nice?

I don't think drugs can do all that.

Just...I don't know. Belonging to a family. It feels nice.

You never know. I've seen a few of the neighborhood kids acting up.

...So Lenny and I aren't enough for you?

I never said that! It's just different. And it's not like we're what you'd usually call a "family", you know?

Lenny's mentioned a couple times that he wants to adopt you, but he doesn't know how you'd take it.
