"Oh. Yeah, I get it," Ryoji said in understanding. She wasn't specifically taken yet, but...

If he and the others had been here anywhere from four days to a couple weeks, why hadn't anyone noticed they were missing? Or was it that when someone 'beat the game,' he went back to the time he'd come from?

'Creepy-ass powers' was sounding like a really good explanation.

Ryoji turned his head to the side to look at Junpei. "If there are monsters, there might as well be magic," he concluded. "I guess we're probably from different times, huh? For me, December's just barely started."
