sixth; video. (bodyswap virus.)

[selfished]

[ So this whole bodyswap business out of nowhere? Of course it's super weird, and of course even Kyouko freaked out about it at once. But after the initial freak out she (probably thanks to the fact she was still pretty emotional and instinctive because of it) suddenly realised this also provides opportunities. And she has to hurry since who knows how long this opportunity is going to last.

So visible on the video is not Kyouko, it's Takashi Natsume in his bathroom, looking in the mirror. For some reason it's like he's looking slightly awkward though.. ]

R.. right. There's something I wanted to tell you..

[ Yes, "he" is talking to the mirror. There doesn't seem to be anything else around, at least. ]

It's.. [ "Natsume" takes a deep breath before there's just a sigh instead. This is way too hard even when practicing like this in the mirror! A look of determination shoots across the face before "he" tries again. ]

W-well, it's just, I think I-- [ ARGGHHHH, this really is impossible! Stupid Natsume, stupid body, stupid everything! The volume of the voice raises to a very uncharacteristic frustration-- ]

I--

[ But then it stops and instead she looks to the side as if she just heard or saw something, although it's not visible on the view itself. The "boy" leaves the frame and the video stops there. ]

[What's going on, huh? What is it? There's something strange about this post but he can't put his finger on it.

Why is Natsume on Kyouko's account?

These are the honest questions in his head at the moment.]

[selfished]

[ It takes a tiiiny bit, but then Kyouko is already back to reply. In Natsume's body, but even so, she grins when she spots Lancer, not realising the broadcast the community sent out. ]

Yo, don't make that kinda face, it'll get stuck! [ A boisterous laugh that doesn't seem like Natsume in the slightest follows it. ]

[chuanifrinn]

Kyouko?

[falseblossum]

Is that you, Kyouko?

[selfished]

[ Wow, is she that easy to figure out, Oriko.. she doesn't realise the broadcast happened, so she just assumes her fiddling around with the window was what the community showed. ]

Huh? What, do ya have some sorta x-ray vision? Sure, it's me though, but who are you?

[falseblossum]

Well, your posting on your own account. It's Oriko here; you're not the only one.

[anothersoul]

Natsume-san? Why are you on Sakura-san's account?

[selfished]

[ .. Oh god. It's Mami. She's not sure.. if she.. wants to admit it's her.. but then again she figures she probably sucks at pretending to be Natsume.

Okay, you can do this, just.. try.. to.. talk normally.. ]

She's over. [ THERE, NAILED IT. As long as she doesn't say much, at least. ]

[anothersoul]

Where is she?

[friendcontracts]

Takashi, what are you doing?

[selfished]

Yo, granny, you're just the one I was looking for!

[ Mostly since she doesn't realise the broadcast showed the bathroom thing, she thought it showed her fiddling with the window she saw the youkai behind.. She's not even pretending to be Natsume, okay, she just forgets to mention her name but it's obvious to notice just from her tone. ]

How am I s'posed to deal with those spirit thingies?

locked

[friendcontracts]

Kid, is that you?

[That's not Takashi. Definitely not.]

Don't talk about those things in public. Just tell them to go away for now.

[spiritually]

Don't do weird things in my body!

[ HE CAN KIND OF GUESS WHAT HAPPENED SINCE HE WOKE UP AS A HOBO THAT DAY BUT WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING KYOUKO!!! ]

[selfished]

[ .. Weird.. things..? She blinks a few times. She didn't do anything weird today yet, right?

Ah, un.. less... oh god, did he see that?! Please tell her he didn't see that. ]

I'm not doing anything weird..!! [ First instinctive reaction is denial though. ]

[spiritually]

You were talking to the mirror. [ Like really what the hell were you even doing. ] The mirror's not going to talk-- [ Well, wait. Maybe.. Ah, there's the obvious answer. He can't see anything, so of course he wouldn't have seen it in the video.. He really just looked like he was doing weird things when he spoke to youkai, didn't he? ] If there's something in the mirror or in the house, go tell Nyanko-sensei and he'll get rid of it. You're okay, right?

[stillneedawish]

... eh? Is everything okay?

[selfished]

Dunno. I mean, you're saying that like there's something that shouldn't be okay here. Everything feels pretty normal.

[ Despite being stuck in a different body. But not realising what broadcast went through has her pretty calm still. ]

[stillneedawish]

Ah, really? That's good, I guess. I was just wondering, since you seemed a little flustered before, but... I'm glad you're feeling better now.

Natsume, are you alright? And how come this is not your account?

[selfished]

[ Again, huh.. keeping up the pretense is too annoying, so-- ]

It's not Natsume. Go look on Kyouko's account if you wanna speak to him.

[answerer_sword]

...Then who are you? You look too much like him.

[oceanicbutterfly]

Who are you talking to?

[selfished]

No one! [ A total lie. Well, sort of, either way.. ]

Why you gotta know either way, Sena?

[mightletyouknowme]

Who is that? It's not like it's easy to figure out who everybody is.

...And why are you acting weird?

[selfished]

[ Huh. Karen was in Sena's body, so.. then this has got to be Sena herself, right? ]

It's me, Kyouko. And I wasn't acting weird at all, what are ya even talking 'bout?! [ She's totally going to deny it.. ]
