[The face of a handsome boy comes onto the screen. His eyes are cold and his hair slicked back. For awhile he just stares at the screen, tilting his head like he might be curious but there are no signs of that emotion on his face nor a flicker in his eyes. There's a pause then the screen goes blank as he tries out a filter.]

End Private//Switch to Voice

[Rather than his face reappearing, his voice comes over the line.]

Mm. Where am I?

[ooc: Kazuo has just arrived and is hanging out by the fountain. Action is open to anyone. And anyone who would notice him playing with the filters is free to notice and even to notice the levels changing. Have fun!]

[He looks back at the fountain and tilts his head. It might look like a gesture of curiosity but he feels nothing.]

They have provided me with information and a guide. I already read it.

Yeah, that one. [She nods at it, interpreting his gesture as one of curiosity alright. Or relief. Perhaps there's that too. Not that it shows on his face or anything.] It's the most usual form of arrival, believe it or not!

Sounds like you already went through the crash course. Do you need a hand with anything else?

Problematic. [But wet isn't something to be bothered with. He looks back at her.]

I merely need to acquire a place to stay.

You're telling me! It'd be even more 'problematic' in winter, huh? [...Not that catching a cold sounds like it's something that'd bother him.]

That's easy to fix. I'm Umi, by the way. Ryuuzaki Umi. You are?

From: [identity profile] deadliest6.livejournal.com
Possibly.

[He memorizes the name should she be useful in the future.] I am Kiriyama Kazuo.

Hey, Kazuo. Welcome to Weirdo City! It's not as nasty as it looks when there aren't curses going on...

[She smiles and has a look at him again.] You're, what? Sixteen?

action;

Date: 2010-08-17 07:19 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] deadliest6.livejournal.com
Fifteen.

[He doesn't smile back and instead just settles for putting his device in his pocket.]

Um. Alright...

[Her weirdo radar is ringing a very loud alarm on this one.]

Then you don't have to worry about rent or food! This place will cover that for you. [Umi turns to point at the buildings standing in circle in the distance.] See those? Those are apartment buildings. You can get yourself a place to stay in any of them -- just pick any vacant room and make yourself comfortable.

[She seems to be reacting negatively to him. That is his observation but he otherwise ignores it.]

Minors are taken care of by the City. [A fact.]

That doesn't mean getting a job wouldn't be a good idea, though. You never know! You may need extra cash for something.

[Well, it's not outright negatively. She's just weirded out by his expressionless... ness. So she gives him this Look.]

Er. Is your world a very tough place?

action;

That would be useful.

[He just stares at her.]

It can be.

Not to pry or anything. But... you look like you're weathered for hardship, as the saying goes. [Stares right back unabashedly.]

What do you mean? [Not comprehending.]

From: [identity profile] soulofocean.livejournal.com
Well, for starters? You look like a tough guy.

Then you're pretty stoic! Like someone who knows how to keep a level head in trying situations like this mess. [Matter-of-factly. Though that could be more than just a training with hard times, but Umi's not going there yet. No prying, like she just said.]

...

[All of those are factual observations so he does not debate them.] Situations can be called 'tough' at times.

From: [identity profile] soulofocean.livejournal.com
...Sorry to hear it gets like that.

[And she means it, though certainly not in a condescending way. It's pretty clear she's sympathizing.]

But looking at the up side? This place won't be too harsh on you if you have experience with tough times.

It looks fun too.

[The sympathy is completely lost on him and he doesn't even acknowledge it.] A place where the dead are living.

action;

From: [identity profile] soulofocean.livejournal.com
...Fun. What part of 'living dead' sounds like FUN to you??

[Unless...]

Kazuo... did you...?

I died. [Doesn't he sound so upset by that? NOT.]

[Umi bites her lip and lowers her glance. Boy, she HATES being right sometimes.]

I'm sorry to hear that.

Now I get it. Some people think of this place like a second chance.

It doesn't matter. I lost the game.

[Clearly death is not a big deal. Like everything else.]

...You died because you lost a game?? [And she's stupidly thinking about Roman arenas with people facing each other in battle, or being thrown at beasts.]

Anyone who does not win is killed. Those are the rules.

action; 1/2

From: [identity profile] soulofocean.livejournal.com
That's horrible!

[There's no hesitation in her voice as Umi speaks. This has to be the worst sort of world she's heard about by far. All the more for someone who's been forced to kill someone before.

No wonder Kazuo acts the way he does! It must take that amount of stoicism to deal in a ruthless place like that!]


How can it even be called "a game"?? It doesn't matter what world you come from --that's TWISTED in any reality! You don't kill people for FUN!

[Then she takes a deep breath and calms herself down, again appearing sympathetic.]

...I'm really sorry you had to go through something so awful.
