If somebody tended to ask a teenage version of myself, "If you could pick a cartoon/anime to be reborn in, where would it be?" Normally, I'd respond with Gravity Falls, Naruto, or Hunter x Hunter.
I was on a roadtrip with my family to the beach, and...
(The current place is seen at the Echo Creek Mall, where Nick is shopping at a store called Macee's, walking aisle by aisle looking for new clothes to have and wear in the boy's section)
Nick's thoughts: I never really owned any male clothing back when I was a girl, so shopping for boy stuff will be interesting! Also, this is the last episode for season one! "Storm The Castle...!" This is where things start to get a little more interesting... (keeps searching for clothes) Ugh... there's nothing good! I can't be seen stuck in the same outfit like Marco...
(Mentally groaning in his head, after what felt like years, he finally spotted an outfit hanging on a hanger, which included the shirt, belt, pants, and gloves.)

Nick: Woah... this looks exactly like Mello's outfit! Might as well take it to try it on...
(He was reaching for the hanger, when suddenly, another hand reached it. Both hands paused when they noticed they weren't the only ones wanting it.)
Nick: Umm...
???: Ah, you're also a fan of Mihael Keehl?
Nick: (Shrugs) I... guess so? How do you...... (Turns to see who said that, and as it turns out, it was a familiar woman. He grows shocked by who he is seeing) M-MARA?! BUT- HOW?!
Mara: (Laughs, a bit angrily) You didn't think YOU were the only one who got dragged in this world?
Nick: Hey, calm down, Mara! And, how did you get here...?
Mara: Well, it's actually a funny story: I was about to do my homework, until for some reason, I randomly got a heart attack and... woke up here! Probably had to with the amount of stress I got... What about you?
Nick: I was on a roadtrip with my family to the beach, when suddenly, everything went black and woke up here. Question, do you remember your past life even if you're in this world?
Mara: I just do, supposedly... Thing is, I remember my life from both universes. What, you don't remember your past life here?
Nick: Right... I don't remember my past in this world, but can remember certain things when I was a girl in my previous one.
Mara: Oh, okay! So you were a girl... That explains the whole "Erica" thing. Pretty name!!
Nick: Thanks!! And... you weren't one?
Mara: (Surprised) I-I WAS, BUT... you got reborn as a boy, then. Do you, by any chance, remember your old name and age?
Nick: Yup. As you said, it was Erica, with me being 23. You?
Mara: Elizabeth Scarlett Yvonne, Liz and Lizzie for short. I was almost 22 back then.
Nick: Pretty cool names you have! You being from another universe explains how you know about Toffee before he arrived in... person, not on-screen. (Remembers) Oh, uhh, the outfit...
