12th Screw - Video/Action

[all_wound_up]

[Video; unfiltered]

Um... now that everyone is out of the hospital, I was curious.  Did anyone else remember something extra?  I still have a memory that I know isn't one of mine, and I'm pretty sure it didn't belong to the person whose memories I had during everything that happened.  If anyone knows anything about this, please call me back.  I've been worried about it, and I'd feel a lot better knowing it wasn't just me.

I wanted to apologize to you personally for the way I was acting before.  I know it wasn't my fault, but I feel really bad about the way I talked to you and how I was behaving.  Even if I had someone else's memories at the time, I still wasn't acting like a very good friend, and I'm really sorry.  I hope you'll forgive me.

[She bows her head very sincerely, frowning worriedly and looking all kinds of contrite.]

[This next call is going to be awkward no matter how she does it, so Nano decides to just be direct.]

Xion-san, I still have your coat.  I thought you'd probably want it back.  If you can bring the clothes I gave you too, I was planning to do some laundry this weekend...

Um!  I'll make some tea and cookies to share, so if you want to come over, I'll be around all day.

[Action; Friday evening; Castle of Departure]

[Nano's seen this place before - it's pretty hard to miss, looming over the Aquarius District every morning on her way to school.  But it showed up a number of times in the memories she got from Xion, and there's still a few strange lingering memories of things she knew how to do that Nano isn't exactly sure how to deal with, so she's decided to come by and check it out for herself.  Of course, she has no idea that several of her friends actually live here, so she understandably looks a little nervous as she approaches the front gate.]

Do... do I just knock...?

... Nano, I still don't know understand what happened. You were someone else?

[ Yukko is laying her head on a nearby desk, watching Nano send a bunch of messages. ]

Was that why you were acting all weird?

[ Gosh, this place is always confusing her. ]

[all_wound_up]

Mm.

[Nano nods awkwardly. It must have been especially hard for her best friend to watch what was happening to her.]

I had someone's memories for a while. It all felt so real, like all of those things really happened to me...

[selematpagi]

... I didn't feel anything like that though! Maybe I was immune!

[ Yukko definitely noticed, and it made things really awkward in the apartment for the past few days. ]

But why? That's really weird! It's like out of a weird science fiction book!

[all_wound_up]

[No doubt, especially with Nano dressing all in black and being really evasive about what she was up to. She could barely bring herself to face her friend afterward.]

I don't think it happened to everyone. I still don't know why it did, either.

[selematpagi]

... Hmph. That's what this place is like! Nothing makes sense!

[ She huffs, plunking her head back on the desk. Yukko should probably feel pretty lucky but... Nano's a robot! She couldn't imagine how cool getting switched with her would be...

Not that she, like, would like that. ]

Well, you're okay now! You're still Nano, right?

[all_wound_up]

Yeah... I'm still me.

[Nano nods, smiling just a little.]

I'm sorry for how I acted before, though.

[selematpagi]

Hey, it's fine Nano. I'm just glad you're back to normal!

[ She smiles, rubbing the back of her neck. ]

And it could have been worse -- you could have been stuck with me!

[all_wound_up]

[Nano has to laugh a little at the thought.]

I wonder what it would be like to be Yukko-san for a day.
