[ The woman in the video is looking confused and frightened. Anyone who's met her would notice the distinct lack of her usual poise.]

Uh...hi...uh ...how do I put this? This is weird. After all this time, I still can't get used to anything. I'm actually Joluk Hergal.I'm in someone else's body. Does anyone know her? Are there any freaky powers I should know about, in case they go out of control? Where am I, anyway?

So yeah...body switching, I'm afraid of what'll happen next.

I doubt anyone would reasonably expect much at this time. There's a lot to deal with right now.

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

I'll keep working at it.

It's... really all I can do. [There's a bit of a rueful smile there; it'd be nice if she could really do more, but she'll give her to best to the ways she can help everyone.]

[filchedfruit.livejournal.com]

It's plenty.

Don't push yourself too much.

[There's some concern.]

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

[Pushing herself is what she does. Looking tired and pale from overwork is, hopefully, a good look on her because it's a common one. But she smiles.]

I'll be fine. We need to solve this right now.

[ Joluk tends to go at his own pace, and doesn't believe in what he thinks is needless exertion. He's still looking unsure but he isn't going to argue.]

If you say so...just take care of yourself.

Hey, do you think there's any meaning to the countries all the Earth people came from? There seem to be a lot of people from Japan, and no one from Russia.

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

Earth was always considered an important planet in my world. [And there, it's not just egotism; beings from all over the galaxy, the universe, have centered their attention on the tiny backwater planet known as Earth.]

But as to the countries, I couldn't say.

[filchedfruit.livejournal.com]

I didn't even know about other planets having life before coming here. I never even considered the possibility.

It is kinda interesting that a bunch of us come from a version of Earth.

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

I hadn't thought about it that way, very much. I was thinking about how interesting it was to learn about the places that were strange to me.

[filchedfruit.livejournal.com]

[ Joluk shrugs.]

I guess I like to focus on what's familiar to me, like the horses in the Land of Dragons. Makes it easier to connect.

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

Agrabah isn't really like anywhere I've ever been before; but it's where I was sent by King Mickey. I don't mind it, since it's with my friends.

[filchedfruit.livejournal.com]

Traverse Town isn't like anywhere I've been.

Is Michiru one of the friends joining you in Agrabah?

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

She is. [This does not sound as happy as it should; it's only a few days since several of her friends have disappeared at once.]

I'm lucky that we're together.

[filchedfruit.livejournal.com]

[ Joluk actually notices this and the concern is back.]

You sure you'll be okay?

[Maybe a distraction would help?]

Maybe I should check this Agrabah place out while I'm here.

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

I'm alright. [Courtesy is strong enough for her to even answer as she should.] If you do come here, please let me know if you need anything.

[filchedfruit.livejournal.com]

Oh...

[ He'll try not to press her further.]

Will do.

Am I there now, or does Michiru just work in Agrabah? I think I'm at her place, and she's most likely in Destiny Islands.

[ The video is showing things in the background.]

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

... That's right, if you and Michiru-san switched places...

Where you are right now should be here in Agrabah! [How did she not think of that immediately? Probably for the same reason it went over her head when Usagi and Chibi-Usa switched ages back home.]

[filchedfruit.livejournal.com]

You're here too?
You didn't end up in a different place when you switched bodies?

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

I did, but it was a few days ago now. I came back home.

I couldn't intrude on someone else's.

[filchedfruit.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't exactly call it intruding. It's more like an even exchange.

Wanna meet up?
Or would it be too weird?

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

I suppose it's nicer to think of it that way.

I'd like to meet, if you don't mind.

[filchedfruit.livejournal.com]

Totally.

Of course, I wouldn't mind.

[ There's a friendly smile on Michiru's face.]

So, where do you think would be convenient place to start?

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

We could meet at the bazaar. It'd be a good meeting point.

[filchedfruit.livejournal.com]

Sure.
How do I get there?

Do you think Michiru would mind if I borrowed some munny? I'd pay her back as soon as we're in our own bodies, or she could take whatever she needs of mine.

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

Please don't worry about it. Since we're going together, I'd like to pay if you don't mind.

[filchedfruit.livejournal.com]

Really? Okay! Thank you!

If you're ever in the Land of Dragons, maybe I could show you around. At least the relatively safe parts of it.

So, how far to the bazaar from Michiru's place?
