[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.]

[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!]

action; pretty much

People who speak against the government can be executed.

[Not that he's ever cared about what the government does.]

action; LOL

That doesn't really surprise me...

[A dangerous tone. Nevermind it's not her case: Umi's having trouble not hating Kazuo's world as it is.]


That goverment's no longer around for you to worry about that.

action; /is amused

[A pause as he observes her attitude.]

I was not worried.

action; /is too!

[That can mean two things: either than he disapproved of that barbaric system and wasn't afraid to speak his mind -- something Umi would admire spontaneously -- or...

Her eyes grow wider.]


Were you... okay with these things?

No.

[Actually, he just doesn't care. But his answer his truthful even if it requires further explanation.]

...That's good.

[It doesn't matter if he doesn't... express it openly. It's starting to come into Umi's notice this may be because he has no other choice.]

It means that no matter how awful the place you come from is, it couldn't get to you. Not like that.

That pleases you.

[Her observations are very strange. It's difficult to comprehend her mind.]

Weird, coming from someone you just met. I know. But... yeah. It does.

[She could explain her personal reasons for feeling happy that someone disapproved of an unfair system even if it'd always been in place now. But... that'd mean sounding ever WEIRDER.]

Are you this way with everyone?

[Again, it probably comes across as curiosity.]

W-- what sort of question is that? [Is he getting all the wrong ideas??] That depends on the person and the situation, of course!

Oh. [Well that was fine. Then again, it was fine before too.]

"Oh." [Now that's a solid conclusion to draw of all this.]

Alright, I... [Anything to dispel any sort of wrong conclusions. She just met the guy.] ...I sort of related to your situation. For personal reasons.

Yeah, a bit. It's what you said about not being okay with it. It... reminded me of another situation a little. I hope I'm not weirding you out too much...

[A long while of silence during which she simply stares.]

You don't actually look like you are, no. By anything.

[Cough. Okay. She's not judging! She's definitely not going back to that time. So he's weird: he has enough baggage to justify it, looks like.]

So. How about I show you the way to a good place to stay?

Fine then. This way! [So where to? Building 8's the one place she knows by rote. And it's fairly safe. It seems the best bet.]

[...And it's becoming weirder by the minute. Is he some sort of... android? There are a couple of very stoic people sUmi knows, and another who's impossible to read even if he's not stoic per se. But this guy?]

It looks pretty normal at first sight, doesn't it? The City. [Smalltalk to get her mind away from these unsettling thoughts.]

It would depend on a world's definition of what normal is.
