In the aftermath of recent troublesome events, I've been reminded that I was going to ask this of all of you.

How many of you have abilities, whether natural, supernatural, or recently acquired, that can be used to track someone? Furthermore, if you're willing to explain it to me, can you tell me how those abilities work?

After all, if someone else goes missing, it's best if we all know who can help us find them, and don't waste time and energy.

She's told me that once they've vanished, she can't detect their presence anymore.

If someone's just lost in this world, though, there's a good chance she can track them down.

[This world, other worlds, Goku doesn't get any of it. If they could get here, doesn't that mean they're all connected anyway? Maybe Neith just isn't as good as Hakkai thinks she is.]

ok

[That's an unhappy 'ok,' Hakkai suspects. Goku doesn't generally react well when told something won't work.

Hakkai sympathizes... but he hasn't heard from anyone yet who can track the already missing.]

[Goku will just sulk quietly for a little while, take some time to wander around and try to find something to take his mind off it... For about fifteen minutes before he goes back to his phone.]

has anyon els said they no a way to find them

[It's Sanzo, he wants to find Sanzo, it was such a great mystery who he was thinking of but it's Sanzo.]

[Someone who knows Goku much less well than Hakkai does would still have no trouble telling who he'd been thinking of. If they're going to talk about it, though, he's not going to leave this thread open for anyone to see.

For one thing, there's no guarantee that Sanzo won't, someday, return as a shinki.]

No.

We've had some people witness disappearances. Apparently, this body that we're in isn't our real one, because when someone disappears, their "soul" is drawn into a sort of portal and their "body" disintegrates.

It's also hard to tell whether the last thing we remember is really the last thing that happened. After all, you remember something that I don't, but you don't remember me collapsing or disappearing. So, it's possible that whenever we get out, little or no time will have passed -- or that we're in a place that's safer than the one that we recall.

[Goku, meanwhile, doesn't even realise that Hakkai has changed their conversation to private. He'll get the hang of the BBS eventually, but for now he just copies people and leaves it as it is.]

if its his body or his soul doesnt matter if neither one is here

[He wants Sanzo back now, Hakkai. He was staying optimistic at first- and he's still handling this remarkably well- but it's annoying. Goku can't imagine lasting as long as Hakkai has, if he's getting antsy after two weeks.]

u collapsed a bunch of times but not for that long [Nataku hits really hard. But that was all after what Hakkai said he remembered anyway.]
but that stuff just sounds like that thing that kid did with the guord
but with lots more people i guess

No, but what it might mean is "Sanzo is fine, and we just need to find our way back to him."

After everything that happened with that forest, I think we could have a chance of tracking down the people who brought us here. If it's true, of course, that what they're doing was related to our appearance.

From what some of the people I saw were saying to Amaterasu, it's likely that it was... and they must have focused on newcomers like us for a reason, too.

and then we just find those guys and beat them up til they stop messing with us right

[Finally, something Goku can understand. Just point him in the right direction when you need someone beaten to death with a magical iron bar, Hakkai.]

it looked like the ground was trying to eat you guys or something

No, first we make them stop messing with us, and then we can beat them up.

Because of the vines, you mean?

what about before and after

[Beat them up before to convince them, beat them up after for their own personal satisfaction.]

yea
the vines and everything els looked realy full but you guys looked hungry

[He probably means tired. It takes so much for Goku to run out of energy, it's hard for him to understand what others are going through.]

That depends on how hard we have to convince them, I suppose.

I was mostly just tired... although I can't speak for others. We were only being eaten a little.

youve been eating and sleeping proply right
if chikusa cant make you im gonna start tryin

[You've been warned, Hakkai.]

[He doesn't know where on earth Goku got the idea that he doesn't take proper care of himself when injured, except possibly by having seen him injured a time or two.]

Yes, I am. I don't want to waste any more time recovering than I have to.

In fact, I spent a whole day in bed!

[It's almost like he's met Hakkai or something. Weird. Goku hasn't been fussing over Hakkai the same way others-who-have-already-been-named have been, aware that Hakkais are gonna do what Hakkais are gonna do, and that so long as he's not collapsing too often, he'll probably be fine in the end. But he feels like he should check in, just in case.]

thats good
lying in bed is boring but its good for you ok

[He gets it, really he does.]

Isn't that usually my line?

[Chikusa will get used to it, eventually. That or he'll actually chain Hakkai to his bed to make him rest; Hakkai's not yet sure how far Chikusa's willing to escalate before he decides that it's too much work.

He is, however, willing to find out.]

Please don't worry, Goku, I am taking care.

so you now its smart

[You can't argue with that, Hakkai.]

ok hakkai i know

Yes, I suppose so.
