[Shouichi's voice sounds unsteady, clearly shaken and slightly out of breath.]

Now I'm certain of it. The fog is making people see things.

Because those people..... t-they aren't here.

And though I didn't mind one, it was just disappointing to realize it wasn't true. But the other I couldn't... I couldn't be more grateful.

[Hard swallow before continuing.]

So everyone, be careful out there until this lifts. Apparently we can't trust our own eyes anymore.

I.... I think I'm calling in to work and will just work from home tomorrow. I don't have any desire to deal with this fog anymore.

Small question, hopefully at least someone will have an answer.

I just moved into the Edennel Apartments according to the map and haven't yet "acquired" a computer -- I'm assuming there are computers here, given the phones -- but plan to shortly. My question though is - has anyone tried hooking a computer, or any other device really, into the network the dreamberries share?

Whether or not there have been attempts before, I'm going to be trying, but any previous experience or things others may have learned before would be helpful.

Unfortunately, this project may have to wait until the temperature and humidity drops a little anyhow. Doing any computer tinkering with this amount of moisture and heat in the air is just asking for trouble and would be miserable anyway.

Also, please tell me this weather isn't normal for this "dream world." There was still snow on the ground only a month ago it feels like and now it's literally a jungle outside even in the city!

[Separate video call placed to Byakuran privately afterward]

I've gotten everything from the cottage over here and put away. I'll see what I can find for food to stock the kitchen assuming some giant insect or random prehistoric animal doesn't eat me first. *He made a face of vague irritation and he wiped a bit of sweat from his brow.* This is just ridiculous even by my standards. Was there something in particular I'm looking for? The fewer trips out in this the better.
