Yeah, Recolle has a pretty big Japanese population. I was born here, but I think I never left Japan in my memories. My home was really important to me.
my rule o thumb for memories is that people leave their home country because 1) they want to start a new life somewhere else or 2) they're running away from something shady.

i've met his mother for a short time when she came back from work, but she thought i was his friend. she was pretty tired, so i didn't get to make the most amazing first impression. bonus: his aunt and uncle are part of the dinner, though.
got any advice? you sound like a guy with experience.
Well, Majima only has his brother so I haven't had to meet anyone yet.
But I think the best thing to do is just be yourself. You can refresh her memory with the good stuff and be there for your boyfriend. I'm sure if she sees you supporting him and making him happy, she'll like you.

oh, i'm on the same boat, though i was born in Japan. it doesn't look like i ever left Tokyo, though. i guess i like the bustling city life.
home is a place where you feel you belong, right?
no subject
Would that be ok? If they were a sentient cat?
The city is great.
I haven't remembered why I left, I know I really loved it.
It was home for a long time.
[ Maybe going to jail and being shot at so much had something to do with it!! ]
But yeah, home can be a lot of things.
Right now I feel like home is being with the people close to me.

no subject
That might be why I left for Okinawa.
[ Only an ex-yakuza, buddy? ]
Not exactly.
My mom and dad aren't in the city.
But my boyfriend lives with me.
no subject
at least you have someone in the city! got some nice plans with your boyfriend?
... mine invited me to have Thanksgiving dinner with his family and i'm actually nervous.
no subject
Yeah, we're going to make turkey and stuffing and everything, Majima's really excited.
That's a pretty big deal.
Have you met his family before?
