[ When Hibari woke up from an afternoon nap in his new house on 5719 Cunningham Lane, it was pretty clear from the get-go that he was definitely not where he was when he fell asleep. But instead of doing the logical thing and calling somebody -- relying on others is something he isn't interested in, after all -- his first reaction was to just get

[Have a teenage thief, Hibari! Kay's out wandering around town too, though she's taking a much more systematic and planned route through the streets of Mayfield. She has a small electronic device with her, tapping away at it every couple of moments as she visually surveys her surroundings.]

[ And Hibari will promptly... well, mostly ignore her, actually, except for maybe a momentary stare in her direction. Kids these days and their weird contraptions. He happens to be walking in the same general direction for the time being, though, and manages to fall into step a few paces behind her. ]

[Eventually notices that she's being followed and turns around.]

"Hiya! You new here or what?"

[kuichigiru]

... New to where? [ b-because this roundabout way of saying things is less painful to him than admitting that no, he has no idea where he is... ]

[thief_of_truth]

To this town.

[kuichigiru]

I guess so.

[thief_of_truth]

Oh! Well, this place is called Mayfield. It's, uh... magic or something, I don't really know. People get kidnapped from their worlds and brought here. Nobody really knows why, but there's no way out just by walking.

[kuichigiru]

... Are you seriously expecting me to believe something like that?

[thief_of_truth]

Whether you believe it or not, it's true.

[kuichigiru]

[ He shrugs, in a sort of 'we'll see about that' sort of way before changing the topic. ]

... What's your name?

[thief_of_truth]

Kay Faraday. How about you?

[kuichigiru]

Hibari Kyouya.

[thief_of_truth]

Nice to meet you, Hibari! If there's anything you ever want to know about this place, don't hesitate to ask, okay? I've been here for a while and done a lot of investigating, so I actually know quite a bit.

[kuichigiru]

[ There's a nod in her direction to acknowledge what she's said.

... It's pretty obvious he doesn't intend on asking anybody for help at any point. ]

[thief_of_truth]

Uh, well... welcome to town, then, I guess.
