[Action A; backdated to shrinkfield/growfield; all over Mayfield.]

[There is a giant fireball floating around Mayfield. He doesn't have anywhere particular where he is going, but he is too big to fit the house, and he's too bored and annoyed to stay in one place. You seriously don't want to touch him, as you will probably burn to death if you do. If you talk loud enough he'll hear you though, and he might be willing to talk to you.]

[Action B; Bugs everywhere!; All over Mayfield]

[Emperor is avoiding the bugs, the crabs and ants, moving between them. It's not that he's unable to fight them, but as he had noticed on his first day in Mayfield when he tried to burn Luka to a crisp, that he couldn't spew any flames at all, only growing a pair of arms, he felt pretty vulnurable. He didn't even have Rei here to take cover inside his arm.

He glares at you as he sees you.]

Out of the way, lower being!

I sort of was. Everyone in Eden is Code:s, and I am one of the Code:Names. We are the absolutely strongest in Eden.

[Oh god, whatever you do, don't tell Emperor that.]

I don't remember my original name.

["Code Name?" Now Gat's thinking back to his conversation with some of the people from Reliable Excavation Demolition ...]

Put that way, that sounds more like some sorta intelligence agency or special operations unit. Havin' folks use code names an' th' like.

S'pecially if it ain't what your name used to be.

We exterminated evil. I'm not really a part of it anymore. They decided that my host is the enemy. I chose him, do they really think I'd let him go evil? What is that idiot Heike thinking. [Seriously, he was going to kick Heike's ass for letting Eden get taken over by other than the founders.]

It's just been so long. All Code:s are erased from existance, as if they were never there, so we don't need real names.

[There's a few seconds before Gat replies.]

I ain't sure I follow you, pardner. If ya'll've been erased from existence, how can you still exist? Or is this some kinda symbolic thing, erasin' one's identity?

[chibi-emperor.livejournal.com]

[Shouldn't that be obvious?]

Of course it's symbolic, how could they fight for Eden otherwise? Yes, it's everyone's identity that's erased.

[nanocerancowboy.livejournal.com]

[Gat nods briefly.]

Ahright. An' so, this Eden. It ain't an organization but a place?

[chibi-emperor.livejournal.com]

No. Eden is an organisation that I, along with three others, founded many many years ago.

[nanocerancowboy.livejournal.com]

Huh. So then you left after one of your coworkers got declared th' enemy.

[Gat feels like he's starting to get a clearer picture about who this guy is and what he does ... Or at least he thinks so.]

[chibi-emperor.livejournal.com]

No. I chose Rei to be the host of my powers, and caretaker of my arm. I was sleeping inside that arm for a long time and when I woke up the organisation was under the control of some minister Fujiwara.

[Don't worry Gat, there is still a lot more about the mess that is all the Code:s and Eden.]

[nanocerancowboy.livejournal.com]

[Right on cue! Gat pulls his head back.]

You slept inside your own body part—?

[He's trying to envision that and is failing horribly.]

[chibi-emperor.livejournal.com]

What? It's not like that's anything weird. Besides, The arm was on Rei's body during that time.

[nanocerancowboy.livejournal.com]

Well, I reckon it wouldn't be for you if it's a common thing where you're from. Where I come from, though, there ain't nobody who can—however ya'll do it.

[Gat punctuates what he said with a half-shrug of his left arm.]

[chibi-emperor.livejournal.com]

It's not common. I can do it because I'm powerful.

[nanocerancowboy.livejournal.com]

[Gat tilts his head again.]

Guess there ain't much I can assume 'bout th' kind of world you come from.

[chibi-emperor.livejournal.com]

Of course not. The world's not supposed to make sense to normal people.
