[SO HOUSEMATES (Neku and Shiki, basically) might have noticed there is a new addition to the house. Namely there is a large-ish TV with a DVD player and a speaker or two in the main room. There is also a large-ish collection of Disney DVDs there. This means-]

Oi! Winry! C'mon over to my place today.

[...Hm. Something he's been wondering about lately comes to mind as soon as he finishes with that decidedly leading message which he may or may not get grief for being public. He drums his fingers before pressing with:]

...Y'know, without Rohan printing his manga here - or that paper from a long while back - there hasn't been much in the way of creativity from people in a written format. [He seems to recall someone else said something similar a few weeks ago. ...Oh well] Maybe the Brigade should hold some kinda contest for that... [...HMM.] Or I could- nah. Last time... [He gets a flashback to Senel punching him. This makes him shudder and then give up on that idea]

Well, whatever. Maybe a contest later on.

Yeah, good.

Great.

Fantastic.

That's wonderful.

Yeah. It is.

They have projector movies, it's like the-

...Well! Good for you.

They were huge, too! Way bigger than Paru's. I could even watch stuff from back home, which is something, because cameras don't exist in my world.

Huh. Well that's interesting... the thing must have run on a Shift or something. ...Or the Organization has invisible probes that can record things through space and time.

[A beat]

...Or your world is fictional in some other universe or something. Like a movie, you know?

[An eyebrow at that.]

A movie? Why would someone make a movie about us?

Well people make movies about a lot of things. Romances, action movies, adventures, all sorts of stuff. You name it there's probably a movie at least sort of like it.

Yeah yeah, like books. I get that part. But movies don't exist in my world, so how would people make one about us? They made a play about us... unless...
