[ Click! The video begins with a characteristically calm and pleased Macau, casually sipping a small porcelain cup of tea. ]

Good evening. I would be a highly unobservant individual if I failed to notice the recent events taking place around Fortuna. Indeed, some people very close to me have found themselves in the bodies of others, as have many of the rest of you.

I would just like to remind everyone not to waste such a rare opportunity. Try to really embrace seeing the world through new eyes for a little while to gain a new perspective and appreciation for your own lives. [ And with that overly optimistic message, the feed cuts out. ]

A-Ah...

( she blushes very deeply and looks away. )

N-Not really. A pleasure to meet you Macau-san.

You shouldn't refuse an honest statement so quickly. You should appreciate the beauty of your own self.

[notsogay]

( shut up. she ignores that. )

U-Um so is that your body?

[ RUDE ]

It is. I haven't had the great fortune to experience someone else's life.

[notsogay]

You wouldn't like it if you got stuck in a weird body.

[eastmontecarlo]

Well... I don't mean to disagree with you, but I've lived for a long time and I'm unafraid of new experiences, be they positive or negative. I welcome a change in perspective.

[notsogay]

You have such a way with words.

( soft smile. )

I wish I could speak like you.

Everyone has unique strengths for a reason. Even if you have a different way of speaking it does not necessarily mean that it is worse.
