[ 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.

Okay.

Uh...do I need to change too?

Will you be coming here to change, since you kinda live here?

I plan to still stay at home. Even if my appearance has changed, I'm still myself.

You're home? I thought you were out somewhere.

Does that mean we're in the same building now?

I think we're beginning to confuse each other.

Sorry.

I didn't meant to confuse you too.

No, it's alright. Let's start over. We can meet at the bazaar like we planned, and go from there.

Okay!

So, directions?

You said it's not far, so it should be easy to get to.

[That's right; he probably hasn't been there before.]

It's in the very center of everything.

Okay, I'll meet you in about an hour or so.

If I get lost, I'll show you where I am on the communicator.

Agreed. I'll see you shortly. [And with a polite goodbye, she cuts the video feed and heads out the door. As she'd said, it isn't very far, so she arrives within a few minutes.]

[ Joluk arrives at close to the time they agreed upon. He's put on a very small amount of lipstick, because he wants to try to respect Michiru's wishes. He manages to find the bazaar.]

[After they'd spoken earlier, Ami makes sure to compliment Joluk on the effort.]

You look very pretty. I'm sure Michiru-san would be thankful for your efforts.

[ Even if it's to acknowledge his effort of being presentable, it's still not something he's used to hearing.]

uh...Thanks.I hope so.
So, should we check out the bazaar first?

[ Now that he's found Ami, he starts looking around. There's something familiar about Agrabah, though in a different way than the Land of Dragons.]

Hey, this place has camels!

[She's gotten somewhat used to them in her time here; but it reminds her this is something you might see... in the Middle East, perhaps; not likely Japan.]

Ah- Could it be, back home, you lived somewhere with camels?

[ Central Asia has camels too.]

Not exactly, but people use them not too far from where I lived, so they're a lot more familiar to me than Pokemon or chocobos.

[The middle of modern Tokyo doesn't. Which is kind of sad because it'd be pretty cool.]

It seems exotic to me.

[ Tokyo's too crowded, and camels can be mean.]

It kinda seems similar to what I've heard the areas west of the Caspian Sea are like.

[ Now he's looking at the food stalls.]

You seem as though you've traveled a great deal. I'm a little jealous. [She admits this easily, with no real ill will.]

Well, my clan's nomadic during the summer, so I guess that counts, and the village my cousin Amira moved to when she got married was pretty far. Going there involved way too much camping.

[ Camping's a pain.]

I haven't really traveled beyond a few weeks journey on horseback back on my home world.

But in places like here

[ He indicates the market]

you can hear about stuff from people who have traveled from different directions.

[(M)ami gives what can only be described as a dreamy sigh.]

I'd really love to experience a life like that. Traveling all over, seeing new sights and having so many new encounters and all the things you'd learn.

That's one way of looking at it.

It's more sleeping in a cold yurt at night, tending the sheep, tending the horses,finding suitable places for grazing,and hunting for food.

I personally prefer living in place with solid walls.

[ (S)he smiles brightly.]

Being able to experience new things is an advantage to being here. There's all these different worlds that are pretty easy to travel to. I've never seen a beach before going to Destiny Islands.

I've never traveled outside of Japan, back home. [And rarely even to other parts of Japan; the sea for a vacation, maybe.] It's been exciting to see so many different places and cultures and traditions.

Yeah, and different times! I haven't really had much exposure to other cultures back home, at least none that were really different.

[ Joluk sees something of interest among the food.]

Ooh, that looks like pilaf! Let's have some!

[The look of polite interest is right at home on Mami's face. Ami nods.]

Shall we stop in here to have some lunch, then? We've been browsing for awhile now.

Okay! The food looks good here.
