Heaven's BBS | Video (because spelling is hard when you're six)

[welcome_home]

From: Nanshe
Date: June 18

[ The video opens to Nanako sprawled on her stomach, kicking her feet in the air behind her but her expression is one of serious thought. Although she looks a little shy and uncertain about leaving a message like this, she also looks pretty determined, too. This... hadn't been something she was sure about asking her big brother, so instead she tries here. Maybe that will be easier? Or people will be less quick to guess why she might be asking... ]

Sooo.... this is heaven, right? And where people go after they die?

If someone died a while ago, can you find them here somewhere?

[Nanako is the greatest for making cookies!]

Okay! Just let me know! If Nimbus is free we can get around even faster!

[welcome_home]

Sumio doesn't sit around! He helps me a lot. Homura helps too, even if she is Souji-niichan's shinki.

[welcome_home]

[ her eyes go wide. ]

Does that mean we can fly?

[sonofson]

[Goten can't help but laugh, his face lighting up too. It's great that she seems excited by that! It gets him more pumped up too.]

Ahuh! Nimbus can hold multiple people but I can also fly on my own so there's plenty of room. We can cover more ground if we fly...if you want to!

[grin!]

[neitherdevilnordeath]

I don't know that I would consider this to be heaven, or where one goes when they die, but perhaps there's another location?

[ Actually, he's pretty sure he would consider this to be hell, but he won't tell her that. ]

Though, for those of us who aren't from this world originally, those we knew who died wouldn't be here to be found anyway.

[deniles]

[He normally only uses text, and is usually anonymous. But...

This needs words.]

You're looking for someone, then? Do you remember what they look like?

[He's trying not to upset her. But he wants to know if there's anything he can do.]

1/2 video;

[likethelight]

[ ! That sort of answer... ]

2/2

[likethelight]

That's a good reason. [ There's something softer and hooded in his expression at that.

Nostalgia? ]

I wonder that sometimes too.

[toremainbehind]

There's a chance that the person you're looking for might not be here, Nanako.

[chickshades]

Good. Is Souji your bother?

[subtract]

... Of course, there's also likely some form of criteria to determine where a person's "soul" ends up. It's not uncommon for two people who know eachother to be able to meet.

This isn't heaven because Neu isn't here. Or she was here, but only for that creepy parade. Tot hasn't seen her any other time.

[Oh Nanako...]

This kind of a thing, where it's really really worrying you? I don't think he'd mind it, honestly. I feel like that's how a big brother would feel. Like the best friend in the whole wide world. When I'm worried about something, I like talking to my best friends about it, don't you?

[welcome_home]

[ A bright smile and a nod. ] Yeah, he's my big brother! He was here before I got here.

[welcome_home]

Maybe.

[ To be honest, she'd thought that maybe she could find an answer without people guessing automatically that she might be looking for someone in particular. She knows Souji would guess right away, but in the end others had, too. Now she feels a little silly for it. ]

[welcome_home]

[ She claps her hands together in excitement. ]

I want to try flying! I bet that will make looking go even faster, too!

Audio

[welcome_home]

[ Okay, that helped some of her hopefulness come back. ]

Do you really think so? Have you ever heard of how?

[welcome_home]

[ She peers at him curiously a moment. ]

Is there someone you miss, too? [ When she asks, her voice is soft and hesitant, uncertain if that question might be too painful to ask someone she doesn't know yet. ]

[welcome_home]

More than one Heaven?

[ This hadn't occurred to her until she asked, but the other gods who had answered seemed to think so, too. ]

If we're gods, would we be able to find it?

voice

[welcome_home]

[ She really fails at being subtle, doesn't she?

Nanako looks sheepish at being caught out, ducking her head. ]

I... not very well?

voice;

[welcome_home]

Yeah.

[ By the sound of her dejected tone, it's pretty clear that this seems to be the more popular of answers she's getting. ]

I didn't think there could be more than one Heaven.

voice

[deniles]

[Sorry, Niles just knows people too well.

Plus, yes, she really wasn't that subtle.]

Hm. That's okay. I'm sure whenever you see them, you'll be able to remember them.

[He wants to believe she'll find them. He has faith.]

I'm sorry I can't be of more help.

[welcome_home]

[ This isn't a voice she recognized, but what the person said... ]

Who is Neu?

The person I was looking for was here for the creepy parade, too!

[ ...Is that a coincidence? She still doesn't understand much about what had happened that day, other than it was scary. ]

voice

[welcome_home]

I hope so. [ She sighs softly. ] Everybody seems to think she might not be here, though.

voice

[deniles]

Hmm...

[He's so bad at this, and the last thing he wants to do is make her upset.]

I don't think, unless they've seen every last corner of heaven, can anyone claim someone isn't here.
