another world | daphne & makena

Time period: Present day

It wasn’t often that Daphne ventured away from their home in The Shipyard. In fact, she often tried to avoid it at all costs, a vast contrast to the socialite she had once been. These days, she would rather be far away from the world, and to pretend that it didn’t exist. While she usually fed from Calista, Daphne and Judas tried to help each other with finding blood sources where they could and so Daphne had decided to check the hospital.

As expected, there was nothing available. Or if there was, they weren’t going to be getting it. She tucked her coat further around herself, listening to the whispers of another couple as they talked about an underground operation where other supernaturals were willingly offering their blood. They were desperate. Daphne assumed it must be another trap designed to capture more supernaturals and decided she just wanted to go home. Rounding the corner, she stopped when she came face to face with someone she hadn’t seen in many many years. Makena.

Makena had been patrolling the Shipyard that evening and was making her way home, happy to have a lighter night that day after only rounding up one supernatural earlier when she bumped into someone who was rounding the corner.

“Oops!” she said as she righted herself before her gaze was drawn up to the other person’s face and her eyes widened in recognition. “Well, well. Isn’t this serendipitous?” Makena chuckled, her smile widening into a mischievous grin as she took a step closer to the other woman. “It’s been awhile, hasn’t it, Daphne? What are you doing out this late at night?”

Hello Sarah,

I'm so sorry for the multiple posts, but I have some good news!

The first one is that I might have found a way around SKIYAKI's region issue with the sms verification, which (guess what) was also a problem for me. 😅

You need a good VPN that works on mobile devices through an app (nord VPN, express VPN, etc.) I connected to Tokyo and attempted the SMS verification through the SKIYAKI app and it worked!

The 2nd is I managed to become a member of Keiko's FC! After all these countless attempts and failures, perseverance finally paid off!

Some tips for those who want to become a member and may run through similar issues:

At step 2.2 -2.3 where I got stuck and couldn't receive the email to proceed. I tackled it by using a VPN and incognito tab on an android mobile device (on pc this didn't work) in order to get around the possible region lock.

For the name, I just followed your advice for the closest instance of it in Katakana. After I receive the membership ID, I will follow the tip of the fellow fan hkrwa to edit my name.

Be careful as the Lawson ticket registration is extremely case sensitive. A single space after the name can cause an error.

Then, it was the address issue. At that point, I thought of asking tenso support if I had made a mistake at the address step since I couldn't make their tutorial work.

After a couple back and forth e-mails with them (they thought I was trying to get a ticket 😑), they sent me an email with what to place at the address fields and... IT WORKED!!! 🥳🎉

This is what they sent:

City [足立区千住曙町]

Street address [４２－４]

Apartment name and room number [ＴＳ１３３０８２５　転送コム]

Maybe the width I used was wrong 🤔

For payment for both FCs I used my Revolut, which worked fine.

Anyway, my apologies for the long post and spamming your ask corner with posts all these days! I hope the above can be of help to fellow fans!

YAY!!! So happy it all worked out eventually. Thanks for the tip regarding the SKIYAKI SMS verification. I will try this method to register my new smartphone so I don't always have to bring my old one with me to Wakana's concerts. It was slowly becoming a hassle because the old phone required constant charging. I think it should be fine with my Surfshark VPN. *fingers crossed*

It's been so long since I registered my Keiko FC membership but maybe I struggled with similar issues. I don't remember T_T By now, I am almost used to constant errors when I first try to register on a Japanese site. It's always a lot of trial and error so I've learned to be patient and to try many different options. But it's honestly a case by case matter so there are no universal tips that I can give.

Thank you for providing all this info about your personal experience. I am sure it can be useful to people who want to join Keiko's fan club.
