[Usagi gives a big, friendly wave to the camera.]

Hello! My name is Usagi Tsukino, and it's so nice to meet you all! Thank you, by the way to everyone who has helped me get settled in and all that while I figure things out.

Uuum speeeeaking of figuring things out, so like, is there a school or something we have to attend or... do we get jobs? Like, I was told this place was a prison but this is... I mean, I have a lot of thoughts on THAT but that's not really the point this isn't really a prison like I've ever seen so I'm not really sure what to do or what we're supposed to do... if... anything?

Um, sorry if this is something that gets asked a lot! I'm really just trying to understand and was sorta just told "go to Aldrip" and ya know, now I'm HERE so....

Uh, anyway! I guess a more interesting question would be what is there to do for fun around here? Or... or is that... also not a thing since prison and all that?

[Was that a stupid question to ask? She's gotten such weird answers that she has no idea what to think of this all.]

Anyway, thank you so much for your help! I really appreciate it!

I guess you kinda have to get used to this place quick, huh? Weird or not. [This place wasn't exactly going to send you home if you didn't like it.]

Oh, no no, I didn't mean to assume anything, Amada-kun. That's on me. I had a friend who used to work closely with the police but she never talked about the prison aspect of it. [Then again, the people Minako dealt with as Sailor V didn't exactly wind up in prison in the first place.]

Guess we'll have to figure things out together, yeah?

[whatsamada]

I suppose so and especially when the both of us don't really know what's going on.

[Not to mention that he made a promise to himself to start acting like his age. But how can he when he was here? Mumbling to himself, there was a lot on his mind but he shook his head.]

Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ignore you. But anyway, have you managed to find a room yet? I heard that it's rather...challenging to get a room right now.

[lightthedarkness]

Honestly, the people I've talked to don't... seem to know what's going on either. I wonder if anyone does.

Hmm? Oh! Yes, I found a room, but I don't know for how long. That's why I was asking about getting a job. I've never lived on my own, though.

[whatsamada]

It's...not that difficult once you get the hang of it.

The important thing is to know how to manage your money. I know there is a limited amount of things we can buy and we need to save it for more important things.

[lightthedarkness]

... [She's reminded of Makoto and Mamoru all of a sudden. Living all by themselves at such a young age because they had to... She smiles a bit more gently, a more mature smile, a mother-like smile.]

You are very mature, Amada-kun, that's amazing you know how to live on your own. Some adults don't even know how to do that. I hope you don't have to work as hard here, though.

[whatsamada]

I don’t know but I want to do my fair share? It would seem kind of wrong when everyone else has to do work too.

[As he briefly looks away, he knew he should act like his age. And yet, he wasn’t sure how in a prison.]

[lightthedarkness]

Yes, but don't forget to enjoy your life either, Amada-kun! You still have a lot to learn and live and experience!

[whatsamada]

I'll try my best to in a place like this! I'm not even sure what is there to do here. From what I heard, I guess we can read or paint in prison?

[Or at least, that's what he knows from what his friends told him....]

[lightthedarkness]

I'm not either, that's why I'm askin' Amada-kun! And if this were a normal prison like in shows sure, but I mean, they're letting us go wherever we seem to want just, ya know not OFF the planet.

[whatsamada]

It just seems so odd when they're letting us do we want...

[Pause]

I have to admit, I'm not used to having all this time to do whatever I want.

[lightthedarkness]

Honestly? Me neither. If it wasn't school [or saving the earth.] I would try to fit in time with friends and family, playing video games,or reading manga. Though uuuuh, not much of a chance of doing that here.

Well, I can spend time with new friends I make, I guess. Like you, Amada-kun!

[whatsamada]

I think you'll have no time making friends though. Not with how positive you are and especially when we're stuck in prison.

[And on that note?]

To be honest, I'm not sure how you are so positive given the circumstances.

[lightthedarkness]

Oh.... um... well... [How to explain that she died before coming here? She clears her throat.]

Because who is there to be mad at? YOU didn't bring me here, the locals have no clue how we're here, so like, being bitter isn't in me anyway and like, sure, I guess I could be more cautious but then I'd be doing a lot of stuff on my own and I'm not that smart to be doing something like this all by myself.

[whatsamada]

What about those who did bring us here? Shouldn't you be mad at them?

[Pause]

Whoever they are, that is.

[lightthedarkness]

Well, yeah! I am but they're not exactly going "here we are Usagi, we're the ones who brought you here."

I mean, I'm not going to take my anger out on innocent people, Ken-kun, I'm not that kinda person... do... do I come across as that kind of person?

[whatsamada]

W-What? Of course not, you look like someone who wouldn't harm anyone!

I just thought that maybe you would be a little mad or upset?

[lightthedarkness]

I AM mad, but I'm going to be mad at the right people, Ken-kun, not someone stuck in the same situation as me.

You're not exactly screaming and stomping your feet, either.

[whatsamada]

I suppose not but I have to admit, that's because I'm kind of used to being trapped in strange places.

[...]

But this is the first time where I had to go somewhere against my will.

[lightthedarkness]

There are lots of people who aren't worried or freaking out or going "welcome to hell" ya know? So I'm going to stay calm.

[whatsamada]

That's still amazing though. Not a lot of people can stay calm under these situations and given how there is a lot we don't know.

[lightthedarkness]

... Thank... you?... [She's not really sure. But also, isn't Ken also complimenting himself since he's as cool as a cucumber?]

You should probably compliment others too, Ken-kun.

[whatsamada]

[He's used to these dealing with strangeness, this is normal for him! However, he raised an eyebrow at her words.]

I do intend to and especially when we're all here. I don't really know what kind of things people have done here but it seems like the least I can do.

[lightthedarkness]

[Ken, honey, maybe other people are also used to weird.]

Compliments can go a long way, nothing "least" about it. Some people don't even know how to give sincere ones, ya know?
