Round 1

[taekwondozephyr]

Okay... okay. I'm not going to panic. I will refuse to panic. There has to be a very reasonable explanation.

I mean, there's got to be some reason why I've woken up in some strange, obviously NOT Korean house, in bed with some man I've never met.

This... this has to be the work of some villain. Someone with a grudge against Master Kim, perhaps. Or maybe even myself? It could be Jivatma... he seemed capable of doing strange things beyond explanation, and he has the power and resources to... to capture someone and put them into a nightmare that makes them question their own life...!

That has to be it!

FOUL VILLAIN! I WILL BREAK FREE FROM YOUR SCHEME AND BRING JUSTICE TO YOU WITH THE POWER OF TAE KWON DO! THE SPIRIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS WILL NOT BEND TO YOUR MACHINATIONS!

...where in the world are my gloves?

That's because...ah...t-this isn't Korea, it's America.

....

And why do you sound like May Lee?

America?

This looks like an American house, but from half a century ago! How can--

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

--May Lee?!

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

YOU KNOW MAY LEE-SUNBAE?!

How do you know her? Is she here?!

[mr-blandy-bland.livejournal.com]

Ah...about that, it's the 1950s right now.

And yeah, I do actually...and she is here. I just know her through what's going on with America...

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

But... how can it be? It's 2006!

...through what's going on with America? What do you mean? Who are you, anyway?

[mr-blandy-bland.livejournal.com]

I come from 2009...I really don't know why or how...it's just been like this for awhile.

I'm Canada, or Matthew. It really doesn't matter. Eh...wait d-did I say there was something going on with America. T-there's nothing going on with him at all. It's not like I gave her any advice or anything about him, really, nope no sirree, nothing!

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

...so I was right. Manipulating the timestream... this must be the work of some villain!

Canada... Matthew... which do you prefer? And... you gave sunbae advice? I'm... I'm confused.

-There is a... very very long pause before May Lee finally speaks up. Her voice is shaking. It's happiness.-

Lim...

[fist-of-flames.livejournal.com]

[There will be a loud groan from his end.]

Oh great. Another one.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

[A sharp intake of breath as Lim smiles wistfully at the voice.]

...s-sunbae?

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

...your voice... I know it. I remember hearing it at the tournament.

Kusanagi, right?

[bloodon-myknife.livejournal.com]

Hello? Ma'am? Are you still there?

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

...that sounded a little lame.

[mr-blandy-bland.livejournal.com]

No, no villain. Unless you call everyone involved in the town a villain, anyway.

Like I said it really doesn't matter. A lot of people just choose either or. And...ah...America's...my brother.

[dynamic-may-lee.livejournal.com]

Just... Just tell me where you are. I can't hug you over the phone.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

The town? You mean to say the whole town is in on this?!

Ah... well, I like Matthew better, if that's alright with you. So your brother has something to do with sunbae?

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

I... I don't know. Hang on...

[You hear the clunk of a tabletop as she runs outside to check the address, not really caring that she's still in the equivalent to pajamas. After a few moments, she pads back.]

5724 Cunningham Lane. Do you know where that is?

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

Um, yes... yes, I'm still here. Who is this?

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

....excuse me?

[dynamic-may-lee.livejournal.com]

Already on my way! -And she hangs up.-

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

[She just kind of stares at the phone, blinking.]

[mr-blandy-bland.livejournal.com]

Welcome to Mayfield...no one can really say what's going on.

That's fine. Ah..n-not really.

[hourai-branch.livejournal.com]

Ow.
