[Ken's stopped for serious time. He's lying back in bed, in the room he and Youji are sharing--the other man's nowhere to be seen--idly scratching Ratty's ears. The little purple Pokemon is bruxing happily at the attention.]
...so, I was thinking.
How many of you guys have another person here, from your world?
And how many of you have a big time difference between you, if you do? How do you decide how much to say, about the future...or do you say anything at all. I can't really figure out what I should do...and this guy might be really good for listening, but he doesn't have much input.
[More fond scratching. Yay!]
Other than that...really wish the weather'd get warmer. I don't like the cold much.

Date: 2011-03-06 06:22 am (UTC)[He's quiet for a moment, thinking.]
I have people here from my world, but the subject of a time difference hasn't yet come up.

Date: 2011-03-06 06:27 am (UTC)[Ken lets out a short bark of a laugh.]
It's a pain in the ass. You should avoid it as long as possible.

Date: 2011-03-06 06:40 am (UTC)[Yukimura smiles slightly, shaking his head.]
Perhaps I'll try to, it seems easiest to just not bring it up at all.

And...my father's from more than thirty years in the past, from where I am. As for what to tell them, I...guess it really depends on how much there is to tell.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-06 06:30 am (UTC)It's a bloody headache, is what it is.
[Then again, if Youji was from the same time as him, he wouldn't be Youji anymore. So it's kinda unavoidable.]
Well, if it was just little shit, I wouldn't be so bothered by it.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-06 06:33 am (UTC)Yeah, I can understand that. There was a lot I had to tell the two of them that came from the past--it didn't really feel right, keeping it all a secret. I guess what I'm getting at is that if it's that serious, maybe you should tell him.

Date: 2011-03-06 07:37 am (UTC)[He can tell she's not all that thrilled about this line of conversation, and is trying to lighten the mood somewhat.]

Date: 2011-03-08 05:39 am (UTC)Nah, thankfully, none of the people from the ol' homestead have been the ones who'd piss me off.

Date: 2011-03-06 02:55 pm (UTC)And it was quite the shock when we met. Last time I saw her back home, she was ten years old. Here she's seventeen. She ended up telling me about everything that happened back home those seven years. The details were...a little upsetting to hear, but I needed to hear them. [Because, well, Byrne died the moment before he showed up in Johto. There's no future for him after this place.]

And I'm not exactly sure about what times they're from.

Might be easier, that way. Least you don't have to worry about it, if you don't know what to worry about.
