Who: Ryoko and you!
Where: The Gardens
When: October 15th
Rating: PG
Summary: Ryoko exploring the gardens!
The Story:
Today, Ryoko can be found outside, strolling around the gardens with her notebook open, writing down her observations and notes about it. She thinks she should have had notes on this place, but there's nothing in her book. There's some notes about a flood during a prior event, so maybe they were lost then?
Or maybe she never wrote anything down beyond that the gardens existed. Most of her notes about Wonderland's geography pertain to inside the mansion, so she must've thought this place wasn't important. It had nothing to do with her.
But she did write that she was going to try and not write things off as having nothing to do with her as often as she used to, and yes the note's old, but since she noticed it again today, she's trying to correct what was probably an oversight on her part.
So she'll be spending most of her day out here, this way when she forgets about this place again, she'll at least have her notes to fall back on if she decides to visit this part of the grounds again.

"That so." That's... concerning. "Well, uh. Don't wanna be morbid or anythin' but, what if people fiddle with that and change things up?" Anyone can easily snatch the notebook from her, can't they? "D'ya have some kinda Super High School Level something to avoid that?"
no subject
She's panicking a little thinking about it. It's a good question, but it's not something that could happen...right? There's no way anyone would ever tamper with her notebook. She can't remember a single person that would ever do anything like that. So it kind of...has nothing to do with her, right? If there's no one who would do that, there's no reason to worry about it.
Okay, she was trying to get better at not writing things off like that, but sometimes it helps to have something like that to fall back on. Even if it's not the best support structure, it's better than thinking there's someone out there that could mess with her memories.
And since she's decided that has nothing to do with her, she'll just abruptly stop panicking and look up her talent to answer his question.
“Oh, that's right. I forgot to mention it. I do have a Super High School Level talent. I'm the Super High School Level Analyst according to this.”
no subject
What does an analyst do, anyway? Analysing, sure, but analysing what in particular?
"I don't really get it, can you analyse your memory problem, then? How does that work anyway?" Or did it stop working and thus she got booted out of the school?
no subject
She's not really sure though. It's a pretty good question. There's nothing in her notebook about it, and nothing referring back to the main notebook about it.
“I don't think I can multitask like that without getting distracted. I'd need to be reading notes on my condition and writing what I've analyzed from them, and probably developing some sort of plan, and even if I could do all that, the cause is completely unknown and if the Super High School Neurologist can't figure out there's no way someone with a bottomless bucket for a brain like me could figure it out.”
That all just sort of comes out at once as she reads. For some reason things like that comment about her brain are in here. She's not a hundred percent sure why she copied that to this book, after all, it's not like she remembers. But if her doctor said it, it must've been important.
“And I'm not really sure how it works, but um, it says I can usually analyze things by observing them and can use them to predict patterns.”
She's still reading, then stops looking surprised.
“Wow, I can do that? I wonder if there's more information in my other notebook.”
no subject
Someone she knew, probably. Being part of the 78th batch himself, Mondo could only imagine just how many other Super High School Level students are out there. Though, geez... he's having a hard time keeping up with her explanation. She must've taken all those notes in detail. If he had the same condition as hers, he probably wouldn't be able to keep as much information. Heck, he'll probably just get lost and confused on top of being useless. In a way, he's sort of glad that she seemed like a bright one, he couldn't imagine how much work it would be for her otherwise.
"...So like fighting. You eventually figure out what kinda moves they're gonna fling at you, or somethin' like that." At least there's one thing that he can sort of relate on from what she said, and agree about the efficiency of: predicting patterns.
That being said, it doesn't resolve the weird feeling he feels, despite knowing about her condition, when seeing how amazed she gets by the notes she took herself on her own notebook. This probably will trip him up time and time again.
"Say, you said that you wanted to take notes on the gardens, right? Never been to this area before? How long've you been here, anyway?"
no subject
She hopes she doesn't fight people, she wouldn't remember what she was doing and it'd probably turn into a giant mess.
“Now let's see, how long have I been here?”
Did she put that in here? She's checking. Let's see. Wait. Really? Is that right? She looks surprised, rereads it again to make sure it's right, and yeah, that's definitely what it says.
“About a year? That's...”
Concerning. She didn't think she'd been here that long. Or that she'd be here that long. She's about to panic honestly, but there's a note under that about time not passing at home while she's in Wonderland, so that's kind of a relief. Doesn't make it completely okay, but a lot better than the alternative.
“Um, it says I've been here for almost a year.”
no subject
He waits for her answer, making guesses in his mind. The longest would be a week, he bets. Surely she'd explore around the mansion and beyond if she got here without any explanation, purged memories aside.
And boy, he can't be anymore wrong.
"A year?! And you haven't explored this area?" Oy vey, that doesn't make sense. "Uh, or maybe... you did but you just didn't jot it down, right?" ...Or... did someone really tamper with her notebook? He was only throwing the idea up from paranoia, but that's the only other explanation he can think of.
no subject
That's the problem with not remembering. She might've come down here and forgotten to write anything down. Or she might not have. It's hard to tell.
"A lot happens in Wonderland, so I could've come down here and something could've distracted me and I forgot to write my notes down. Or they could've gotten lost during an event. There was..."
Hang on, she's checking.
"A flood event that damaged my notes. I could've lost pages from something like that."
no subject
"That, yeah, that could be it. That makes sense."
As paranoid as he can get, he does hope that they're all just his overthinking. As it is, they're in a world under the control of their enemies, they don't need more than they already have now. Not that he's 100% sure this chick's an ally, but there won't be an end if he's gonna be wary of everyone. While the possibility of the tampering won't completely disappear from the back of his mind, the flood reasoning will give him some peace of mind. To an extent, anyway.
"Any other areas you haven't explored?"
no subject
That's going to be a pretty typical answer from her. About a lot of things. But it's always the right answer from her. So she'll go back to checking her book to see if there's anywhere she's missed.
"But it doesn't look like it? Outside of places like the caves, but I don't think I'm cut out for exploring places like that."
The funny thing is, with her talent, odds are she wouldn't really get lost. But that's something she can't really remember at the moment either.
no subject
"But if the flood can ruin your notes... maybe you oughta make some copies of it before anythin' happens. It'll be hard for you if you lose it, right?" Then again, if the flood comes again, as long as they're on paper, they'll be ruined. Mondo ponders for a moment, before an idea hits his mind, pounding his fist on his other palm. "ーRight! You can put the copy in a ziplock!"
no subject
She's not sure if she's heard that one before, but there's nothing about it in her notebook, so she probably hasn't? Or if she did, she didn't write it down. Or it didn't get copied over. Lots of possibilities here.
"Let me write that down before I forget."
no subject
no subject
She's made some other comments like that today, not that she remembers. And most of them have been jokes. But this one's not. She's pretty serious about it.
"So I should still write it down, just in case."
no subject
no subject
"All right. Wait...where are the closets again?"
no subject
no subject
Don't mind her, she's just writing that down. She tries to keep a list of where everyone from the Academy stays. That way she doesn't get lost if she goes to visit friends. Or if there's some sort of emergency which is equally likely given Wonderland.
"And I don't mind. I don't remember doing anything else anyways."
She's already forgotten what she was doing before.
no subject
Mondo leads the way with the worry at the back of his mind, checking up on her once in a while. He just hopes she doesn't forget what she's doing with him halfway through and ends up wandering somewhere else.
After the first two floors, he asks to make sure. "You still remember who I am?"
no subject
That's a no, so she goes back into her noteboook to check.
"You're...um...Mondo Oowada! Right?"
no subject
He'll repeat this if it seems necessary, like if she looks confused or lost. The trip to the eighth floor takes slightly longer than usual because of this, but it's more concerning if she suddenly screams for help or shit like that. Thankfully, Otonashi is... like her name, 'soundless'. She's pretty calm and composed in general, from what he sees so far.
"Aight, we're here. My room."
He'll open the door wide for her and walk straight in. His room seems to be considerably empty despite being vast, with one humongous bed smack in the middle, occupying the majority of the space. There are various woodwork on display on a coffee table at one corner of the room, as well as some unfinished pieces laying around. Some magazines can be seen poking out from under the bed ー all of them seem to be the motorbike kind.
"This is the closet. You've got one in your room too, and you can ask for anythin' from it. ...Though I guess you probably have that noted down on your book, right?" She's a Wonderland senior to him, after all.
After his explanation, he doesn't wait to open up the closetー
"Whoa?!"
ーonly to be flooded with ziplocks.
Losing his balance from one that slips under his foot, he falls back on his bum quite unceremoniously, with another ziplock hitting his corncob as a finish. Well, he did ask for more, but they don't need this much... "Goddammit." Hopefully Otonashi is far enough from danger?!
no subject
So when she sees it, she's surprised, not really concerned for Mondo because they're just plastic bags, they're not dangerous, it's just...wow, that's a lot of bags.
“Um...are you okay? Did you slip?”
Part of her wants to ask why he needs so many bags since with all the excitement she's forgotten why they're here, but she's not sure if that would be rude or not. So instead of that, she thinks a better question might be...
“Do you need help with those?”
no subject
"Yeah, 'm good."
The question earns her an eyebrow raise from him, but not for long because ah yes, he realises: the memories.
"Check your notebook. How many should we get you? Five should be more than enough, right?"
no subject
She'll check because she's not sure what she'd need them for. Let's see, let's see. Oh, here's a recent note. They were going to get bags to put her notebooks in in case something happened to them. That explains the avalanche. Okay, it doesn't entirely explain the avalanche, but it does explain why they got them, and means that Mondo isn't the keeper of all the Ziplock bags in Wonderland or something like that.
“According to this, I have two notebooks I'm using right now, but I do have some blank spares. So five should work for now.”
no subject
The one time he tries to help someone out, this happens. He probably can start some business with all these bags, goddamn... "Okay, there." Handing over five, he sighs. Shoving them back to the closet didn't work, and as useful as Ziplock bags can be, he has a feeling he'll never use it up. "If you need more, you can get some from the closet, but... just ask from me next time, I don't need this much." She might not remember to note that down, or even if she does note them down, she might forget to check her note before getting one, but he figures it's worth a try. "Do you know how to go back?"
