"Attacking no. We did try and communicate with it. I'm just a young girl, there isn't much attacking I could do."

How did communication go?

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"It used a very simple code and when I asked when it would stop, it got very angry at me."

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

No answer then I take it?

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"No, he answered. Loudly, then killed the link. So I spent the time hiding in the shell of the buildings it already smashed."

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Good idea.

[And yes, she means this.]

"And Omoikane was there with me, so it wasn't hard. Found food. Now, its just quiet in my head."

[Tiffany nods.]

What is Omoikane?

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Omoikane is the computer that I worked with. One of my few friends. I found it in the post office when the door was open."

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

I'm not very familiar with computers. But I know what it's like to have a voice in your head suddenly vanish.

"When I was four, I was conditioned to work with Omoikane and we have since then."

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

That must be strange then.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Yes, it is."

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Do you have anything you like to do? Maybe getting your mind off it might help.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Not that I can do here. Most of what I did hasn't been invented yet in this time period."

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

I see.

Maybe some chores then? I usually make cheese when I need some peace and my mother here, cleans to have something to do.

"Laundry is done, the garage is clean. I can't get a hold of one of the people I was working on my project with, or at least, she sounds, wrong... You don't know anything about mechanical engineering, do you?"

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

I can't say that I do. We didn't have most machines and technology in my world

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"That seems to be fairly common here."
