Ugh. It's been 6+ months since whatever happened.

I've had to work as "Burger World", struggling with people using the old language.

And my account got hacked and I just finally got access to it.

And could someone explain to me why Japan is acting like it's an independent country and not the 51st to 54th states of America.

...

Huh?

[last_sundust]

Who are you? Do you speak English?

And what do you mean, huh? My account got hacked and the world's wrong and weird.

[the_ebbandflow]

I don't think this is your account.

This account's used by a friend of mine, Hirume.

And my English isn't all that great.

[last_sundust]

That's my name, Hirume. But everyone calls me Lulu.

[the_ebbandflow]

You don't look like the Hirume I know.

[last_sundust]

You sure she is a Hirume and didn't steal my identity?

[the_ebbandflow]

I'm pretty sure she's been "Hirume" longer than I've been "Hasegawa, Kai".

[becomeanwarrior]

...Wha?

What do you mean 'six months'.

Who are you.

Japan is an independent country.

[last_sundust]

I dunno what that means.

[last_sundust]

Since some floozy with a sword did something and threw me into the ocean, and I ended up in this fake Domino that doesn't match my hometown at like all.

Hirume "Lulu" Amahara.

No, it's not. It's the 51st to 54th states of the United States of America. You know. Kantogina. Kansaifornia, Hokkaidohio. Kyusuhuhoma.

... you look like my boyfriend if he was like. A decade older.

[becomeanwarrior]

...Hokkaidohio.

Uh. I think you. Might be lost. Miss Lulu. There's already a Hirume. So you might be uh... somewhere else.

...I'm Haita, Onni. I assume that's your boyfriend's name? Hirume and I are also involved here, so that would make sense...

[last_sundust]

Pft. No. He's got an English name because we're Americans. I just have a Japanese sounding name because my Grandfather's a traditionalist who keeps trying to relitigate the War of World Freedom.

His name's O'Neill Hawkings Hayter Haywart.

[the_ebbandflow]

I'm in my twenties and Hirume has been "Hirume" for longer than that.

[becomeanwarrior]

...Right.

So, as a random question, does your boyfriend, this 'O'Neill Hawkings' work in tech? Or security?

[last_sundust]

Well I've been Hirume my entire life.

[last_sundust]

He's on an internship working for the Ener-D System for the New Domino City project. Duel Academy student and all?

[becomeanwarrior]

Huh. What a coincidence. I mentored under the inventor of D-Wheels, using the Momentum System.

...Also I'm half-scandinavian on my mom's side so I'm pretty sure this O'Neill is your timeline's version of me.

You are very lost, Miss Lulu.

[last_sundust]

Inventor of the who in the what now of the what system?

What's a Scandinavian?

Yes. I am. That's my problem.

[becomeanwarrior]

...Let me guess - Ener-D is some miracle supertech perepetual motion machine that's powering the entire city and also being used in next-gen motorcycles?

...Scandinavia? Y'know, Norway, Sweden, Finland, that whole region?

No I mean 'in the wrong universe' lost. You hijacked our Hirume's account.

[last_sundust]

Yes. Duel Runners. For Turbo Duels.

... No? Looking it up, that's Vikinglandia. You guys are screw--

???

[becomeanwarrior]

Yeah, everything you're talking about is things that have happened in our reality. Except the USA didn't apparently... take over the world???

Whoever this sword lady is, she knocked you into our reality.

...We've had more than a few people end up here that way, so you're not exactly alone. But you're not the Hirume people are expecting, Lulu.

[last_sundust]

Freed the world from some really bad dudes.

... Who else would they be expecting.

[last_sundust]

[the_ebbandflow]

Yeah, and I think you got the wrong account.

Which I'm sure she'll probably nab it back pretty easily given what she can do, if she feels like doing it.

I'm just imagining Failnaught's reaction to all of this...

[last_sundust]

Account thief!
