No one really tells you how scary it is to fish in the dark. Everyone else seems used to it, but the thought of falling in is crippling.

I guess it must sound more profound in my head when I'm worrying about dying alone near a dock, doing something new. Sorry.

[The little worries that pop into your head when you stare into an abyss.]

I guess tea would be able to improve the state of things just a little.

[oh yeah, he has to remember a lot of people don't know what he's talking about even if he still thinks he's stuck in another game.

best ignore all of that and focus on the question.]

That's what it says, yes. Actually, I was surprised the name wasn't already taken without adding some numbers or such.

[Initially, Shiki was doubting it was kurosama rather than kurosawa. If it were just someone's surname, he would have been less puzzled. Still, to typo one's own last name...

There wasn't really much he could do to emphasize why he felt it was odd that someone was referring to themselves normally as '-sama' without it sounding rude on his part.

Still. Maybe the guy was a land-owner and that was just how he was used to being addressed.]

What do you mean? Why would you add numbers to your name?

[It wasn't as if Shiki was outside of the computer generation, but--he simply wasn't a part of it. He didn't know much about stacked usernames or anything like that, because he just watched TV as a vice.]

I don't want to sound stupid, but you're speaking about it pretty casually and it isn't obvious to me.
