[So he went to check on the turtle... to find the door open and nothing in there. Not that there was a ton of personal effects before, but the girl isn't there, none of the stuff is there... she wasn't very nice anyway though and probably was a demon, but she wasn't bad... sort of like Izumo.... so Rin flips open the journal now, holdingup a normal looking turtle to the camera that some people might identify as having been Jacqli's. Which probably makes this next part confusing]

Hey guys, I think Miros went missing. ...She left her turtle.

Is anyone gunna look out for the guy? All her stuff's gone and the filter sin't working.

[That's because it was an alias, Rin.]

-Huh? What's that mean? That people vanish as their stuff goes?

Uh, I think it's the other way around. When people are sent home, all their stuff goes with them too. At least anything that they originally came with. That's probably why only her turtle is still here...

[That poor turtle :(] Are you taking care of her turtle now?

...What- huh? So she's actually gone...?

[...He glances at the turtle. He did "take care" of it during the draft. By which he means he visited once. But . Hm]

Mm. If you can't contact her either, then she's definitely not here anymore. You never know though, she might come back one day.

If that's the case, I hope she doesn't!

Eh? Oh, right. It's probably for the best she stayed where she was. Was she living with you?

Nah, I was just going to see how the turtle was doing.

Ohh, so that's why...what are you going to do now with the turtle?

I don't really know... I guess I've gotta do something...

Mm? You'll be taking care of it right?

...I will?

You're not?

W-well I never said that either...!

Oh...do you need some help?

He- how do you even take care of a turtle?

Oh that's easy. You make sure the turtle gets plenty to eat, keep it somewhere warm and lots of love! I think they eat vegetables. Oh, and some water for it to swim in.

[Yui no, this is not a bunny.] Eh, although reptiles don't really need to eat that often...you might need to ask someone who knows how to handle reptiles or a book on turtle.

I think she kept it in the tub most of the time, but I'm not doin' that... I guess I gotta fill up a big bowl or something...

[Jeez. he looks at the turtle again. Sob]

Maybe there's a small fish tank you can use at the general store?

But it's a turtle shouldn't I get it a turtle tank?

Oh, I think you're right...but don't fish tanks and turtle tanks normally look the same anyway? They both have glass panels, right?

I've never actually seen a turtle tank, so I don't know. I guess?

Well the reptiles I've seen were always kept in a tank that looks like a fish tank. So, I thought they were all the same...

How big is this turtle anyway?

Well it's-

[And he holds up a box turtle to the camera Yeah]

[ajkshgak ahhh s-so cute.]

Aw, it's adorable. Does it have a name?

[...If "Miros" named it, he can't remember. He looks at the turtle, as if willing it to telepathically tell him its name. It doesn't. So he shrugs]

If it does, I dunno it.

You don't...? Well if you're going to take care of it, you should at least give it a new name.

I gott- [...That makes sense. He looks at the turtle. Then the book. then the turtle...] what sort of name do you want, little guy?

[A curious pause] ...Can he really talk? I heard that animals could talk here, but I don't know if it's actually true or just a rumor.

I've not heard a lot of 'em...

[...TALK TO ME TURTLE. GLARE. Come on why can't you animals talk more like Kuro]
