[Video | Week 17, Day 4 | morning] So am I still waiting for this world to stop hating
[ The feed clicks on with the Hitomi apparently propped up on a table or the like, catching a clear view of a white-haired older teen who seems to be peering at the recording for a second, making sure it's lined up properly. He sits back after the confirmation, smiling pleasantly in a way that makes the scar over the left side of his face twist a

[Fox grins brightly, puffing up with a bit of pride. She's working hard to establish good PR for herself, even if she does find it more entertaining to work with the more...'volatile' element. Especially as she finds it so. She'll need to do a lot of good works to keep her reputation even, but she doesn't mind that. She doesn't just do anything she pleases for the evulz, after all.
In fact, and it's with a twist of her smile into a more wry smirk here, she realises that she'd make a brilliant hero if good works didn't get so mind-jarringly dull. She even had been a hero, albeit only on TV, and while it had been a means to an end, it hadn't actually been that bad. Just...dull.
Here, here it was different. Here, being a hero was everything it was in a TV show, not just a nine to five job. There were caravans and people to guard, bandits to round up...why, she could actually do good for the inherent excitement good of it and not need to use it ( ... )

[ He's smiling, this beyond-his-years teenager that well, is still a teen. Because... he does realize there's... something maybe about her he should keep his eyes on; her sudden opinions and bluntness off the bat that's sets him a little back on mental heel. It's not a bad thing, but one that makes him frown a bit himself and go---your intentions are the right ones... right? He keeps getting a little pinged the opposite way, but... it's just a gut twinge, nothing else. ]
I wouldn't say I'm starting organizing it, but I do want to make sure it happens. A friend of mine and I have talked about this kind of thing before and she might be . But that's great!
We'll certainly need physically-able people to guide those who need it safely to a village. [ Oh dubious. So dubious, but not at all like he wants to slight her abilities... because... who he he to judge, but... are you... battle, really...? ] That's---okay with you? Some of these creatures on the road---they can have powers---
[ NOT MEANING TO SLIGHT AT ALL, but ( ... )

[She all but strikes a pose at that, definitely showing off and apparently not shy about that. Of course...she does have a figure that doesn't exactly scream 'fighter'. She smirks, though, utterly proud of herself when it comes to some things, at least.]
Ever seen a gargoyle, kid?
[Sure, they were allies now, but that didn't change the fact that she'd personally tangled with them before.]

A gargoyle? [ Helpful, if nervous and not really helpful smile. Why is she talking about gargoyles? ] Like the statues? Of course.

[ He does have to blink for a moment. But, of course---when he said akuma most people thought 'demons' like in the bible or otherwise, so... It's probably similar? Still. ]
I didn't realize that. Not from where I'm from at least; they're just stone as far as I know. They can be dangerous?

[ It's not... the strangest thing he's heard. Of course some people's worlds are just like this. ]
Thank you, then. For volunteering. I know you're fairly new here, so probably one of us who's been here longer would go with you?
[ Beyond that it's also not that... well... he does still wonder, with how different and uniquely powered some creatures can be... is it really a good-conscious thing to let her do that? She's willing and seems able, but-
Ah. It's rude to just say 'no', too. And stupid. ]

I imagine we could trade off a lot depending on how busy we are, too.

[It would give her a chance to get to know more people, certainly, and that was always a good thing.]
Probably trading off is best, even for people who know each other--if we stay bunched together by who's from what world, we won't work together as a group. And working together is the only way we're really going to make it here.

I agree. We'll just have to see who's able to on what days, then.

[If she could be put in charge of all of the 'other-worlders'...]

[ That's not how he had been thinking about it! ]
I don't know. A friend of mine, Rin, said she'd like to help run this, too. I'd like to think we're all in this together.

[ But it's the hesitation of someone realizing they can't argue the point and might actually agree. ]
We'll have to see what happens. I'm not going to let it get forgotten, though.
