(When the feed clicks on, it would seem that the SFC is being turned over in someone's hands several times. There are brief, fleeting glances of the ground, followed by a smart, relatively expensive looking, albeit somewhat wet, suit. The man holding the device -- when he stops fiddling with it -- is wearing a particularly perplexed expression that

[Video] I'll just leave this here for later.

Oh, they're most certainly watching. I wouldn't doubt that.

[ So why is it he may as well be tripping over attorneys and detectives wherever he looks, here? It's somewhat cumbersome. ... Still, Naoya is a little hopeful this person may be of use to him; he needed to know if the demons had gotten out, or what. ] ... Tokyo, was it? Did you happen to notice anything of interest you can remember before leaving there?

[Video] :D

Which is why I'm asking to speak to them. I presume you're not one of 'them'?

(Because all the cool kids are lawyers.) That would depend on what you define as 'interesting', I imagine. I've been told my interests aren't always the most exciting of things.

[Video] ... I apologize in advance for the tl;dr. ;;

[ ... He seems amused, chuckling a bit, but decides today, he'll feign being semi-polite. It'd be worthwhile... why? He didn't know. It was for amusement, mostly, really. ] Not at all. I'm sure my clothing alone can state that I, too, happen to live in the same country, after all. How many natives here have you seen wearing traditional Asian footwear?

[ He decided, though it was hard to not lie here and there and to be careful with his words, that he would play 'honest' with Ryou. After all, how is it a lie if, in this body, he WAS Japanese...?

But at the other's answer, Naoya raises a brow. ] Ah, consider it of no importance, then. You would know what I meant. It involves the Yamanote circle, coincidentally... but it seems people here come from differing worlds, so it's quite possible there may also be alternative realities, after all.

[ He'll let you absorb that in the meantime. Kids these days, why are you all becoming lawyers? :| BACK IN HIS DAY PEOPLE DID ACTUAL WORK-- ]

[Video] it's fine! <3

I don't think I've been here long enough to accurately comment on the natives.

(He may or may not look uncomfortable at the idea of 'other worlds'. ) Mm, if you insist. (FOR REVENGE)

[Video] Good, because I do it too often xD;

It's fairly easy to tell our kidnappers apart from ourselves. Even once you dry off, it's readily apparent the differences... but then, you must still be disoriented, I imagine.

[ Naoya just shrugs, shaking his head slightly, but still smiling. ] You'll find out that I'm correct one way or another... there is no other explanation to this fact. Some of the others here... well, you'll see. I've no need to explain that.

You could put it that way.

I wasn't disagreeing [...].

(Slightly longer pause, during which Naruse pays a little more attention to his surroundings.) Where would be the best place to get dry? (The drowned rat look isn't the most comfortable, you see.)
