[Rika doesn't know she's on the second level. She's sitting on her bed, looking unhappy, knees drawn up to her chest. She's mumbling to herself, too.]

First, I lose memories of Chaz. Then, people go missing afterwards for a week. I don't like it here. I want to go home.

... I'm back. I don't want that to happen again. That was...

[ooc; since it hasn't quite happened in the thread yet, and I'm so sorry for failing at it :(, there was no fire but instead the Black Wave, which is essentially this spread through the room once Rika backs away from the mirror after examining it. Of course, it only affected her, and then she would have been gone. :) The memories she lost were of Chaz.]

[Because her player is HIGHLY unoriginal, have a Rika in a purple suit instead of her normal black one. She is being Nei instead of Rika, and Nei-Rika is highly confused.]

Where's Rolf? I can't find him. Am I not looking hard enough?

[Getting ready for work, she is! And because of the plot, she bursts out into song as she does:]

You want to go but you don't, you don't take me with you

♬ You don't, you don't take me with you, you don't, you don't, you don't take me with you
Your face and the love under the linden tree
remind me of your eyes~ ♬

[Stops, blinks, and then laughs.]

That was strange.

I'm glad I can still work for Miss Millay. It's too bad I won't be seeing some of those people that had been coming in to the cafe, though.

[Thinking now, about it.]

Does that mean if they were to go into the cafe, those that can't see us, they'd see things moving on their own, even though we're moving them?

Papa! I think we should get ice cream today. It seems like a good day for ice cream, don't you think?

[Rika is looking slightly homesick. Though, 'slightly' might be an understatement.]

Mm... I wonder how everyone's doing...?

Welcome... well, maybe. I did get to meet some nice people so far. I still miss Motavia though. I guess it's inevitable.

...Chaz? Where's Chaz? I was near him when I fell asleep, wasn't I? I know I was in Aiedo, in his house, and in my bed, but... now, I'm not there. There wasn't a place that looked like this there...

I'm not sure I like this too much. It's a little scary. I don't know any of the people here, and... and...

I want to go home. Where I should be. This isn't home, this isn't Motavia...! [Is totally about to cry now, very very unhappy with her current situation.]

I... I guess I should figure out where I am...
