digital_dive | 2nd Keyhole [Accidental Video/Audio]

[The video opens up to a beautiful beach. The sun is just barely in the frame, the beautiful rays shining down on the water. The camera moves around for a bit before you hear the click of a button being pressed. Then a voice off-screen speaks.]

Huh? It didn't work.

click.

Oh come on!

click. click. click.

Stupid thing!

[The view moves again to see spiky brown hair and a fist comes down again and again on the screen of the D-Comm.]

Why won't you take a picture you stupid thing?!

[There's a few more whacks before a rather large hand shoots out to grab the D-Comm from it's incompetent owner. It's a Koemon. He stares at the D-Comm for a bit and behind him, and a bit out of focus, you can see his spiky brown-haired Tamer squat down behind him and look over his shoulder.]

What are you doing?

[There's a few button's pressed and the feed turns to audio.]

Oh! That's how you do it! I turned on the camera on accident. Oops.

Heh heh heh. Thanks Koe!

click.

Thanks Koe. You know, this beach is a lot like the one I have back in my world. Reminds me of home. We should go out and explore today. Come on!

[And with one last click, the audio cuts out.]

You're very lucky to have that kind of friendship. I really hope he's here so you can find him again.

I'm sure he is. I can tell.

How can you tell?

I can feel it in my heart.

[Cute Sora placing his hand over his chest.]

... in your heart... ?

[Oh Sora. All the feels from Haku right now...]

He... must have a very strong connection to you then, for you to feel something that strongly...

Well, we're best friends. Of course I do.

[He smiles at the camera.]</small. Don't you have someone like that?

[Haku is thinking more of how Vocaloid Kokoro came to be, and the odd things that had happened with the twins when they had been there. She hasn't thought about it in some time, and Sora's words are making her wonder just what real human hearts are truly capable of...

She smiles after a distracted pause, though.]

Oh. Of course I do. My husband, Eikichi.

I knew it. Though that's got to be even more special. I mean Riku and I are only best friends. This Eikichi guy is your husband. You two must love each other lots.

Mhm. We do. We met here, in fact. Three years ago now, a little after I got here. We even have a daughter now - Hanako.

Oh, Hanako would probably adore you! Of course she loves everyone, but she's always looking to make new friends.

Who doesn't like making friends? I'd love to meet your daughter. How old is she?

Well... she was activated a little over a year ago... but she was made to be about seven or eight.

[lol what is explaining robotics]

Activated?

...You don't have to treat me like a kid. I do know where babies come from.

Babie--...

oh, no no no! Hanako isn't human. Nether am I. We're androids. I'm only four years old as of this year. Hanako is a year old. That's... just how we work. We're not born, we're built.

...Androids? Whoa. I thought you were human. Sorry.

[Sora laughed.]

I see. Wait, you're only four? But you look a lot older and act a lot older too.

No, no, it's alright. I... get so wrapped up in the conversation I forget to explain that sometimes.

[she nods]

That's just how we're made. My "older" sister looks and acts younger than I do, but my "younger" one looks almost the same age as I am. It's... a little confusing to anyone who isn't in our family or hasn't known us a really long time...

"I'm not sure I really get it but...okay. Well you're still being really nice to me so it doesn't matter what you are or how old you are. I think you're cool Haku.

[quiet giggle]

Well... that's fine. Like I said, it's confusing. I'm glad you think I'm cool though, Sora-kun.

You're welcome! So Haku, do you know how to take pictures with this thing?

Pictures? Oh, yes. Actually there's a really easy way to do it! If you press the button at the top of your D-Comm so it locks, then press the center button, there's a little picture of a camera down near the bottom. Touch that, and your camera function comes up! You can do this any time your D-Comm is locked.

Wow! It's that easy? Koe had to go through the icon things. That makes it a lot easier. Thanks Haku!

Shortcuts make things a lot easier! You're welcome, Sora-kun.

So where do you live? I'm on Axoryi and I'm hoping to hop on a boat to the mainland.

Oh, I'm in Neon City, at the Hyperion. Axyori is nice, though. I've got a few friends who live there. One of them is actually going to have a real baby soon!

Oh neat! Neon City, huh? I wonder if I can get a boat to take me there. What is it like?

Hmn... I don't know if boats actually travel to the different continents. That'd be something interesting to try after being here for so long!

[laugh]

Oh, it's a very large city. You probably won't even see most of it in just one day.
