Huh?!

[marcheradiuju]

I guess I shouldn’t have expected it to be that easy. I mean, the others wanted Ivalice to stay the same so much. But I just wanted to go home… maybe this place is for me

Play? How old are you?

[marcheradiuju]

I... I'm thirteen. Um... who are you?

[shadow_genius]

Oh, you're a little older than me...

I'm Leon. And, well, I guess we could play sometime. What do you like to play?

[marcheradiuju]

I'm Marche. We could play... I don't see any video games in this place... maybe we could get an RP campaign set up? I don't really know how those things work but I think we could figure it out.

[shadow_genius]

An RP campaign? Is that like playing war or pretending or something?

[marcheradiuju]

Uh-huh! The older kids in the last town I was in played it a lot...

Oh... but the people here might not like it. Um. I don't know. I don't know what to do here. When I was at home I read a lot... and when I was in the land of Ivalice I mostly fought. I'm tired of fighting...

[shadow_genius]

Hm...I've never actually played with other kids, so I don't know.

I'm pretty used to fighting now. But I prefer studying and experimenting.

[marcheradiuju]

Really? You must be lonely, then.

Uh... studying? I'm not that smart, I think... I mean, I do okay in school...

[shadow_genius]

Huh?! Erm, I guess sometimes...

I was going to go study in a university, actually. I'm pretty intelligent. I've always been working in labs, which is why I've never had time to play with anyone.

Not that I would mind it, though....do you like chess or board games?

[marcheradiuju]

Wow, you go to university! You must be really smart then! I don't know anyone who's in university!

Um... I like board games. I played chess for a bit but I'm not any good...

[shadow_genius]

Haha, well! I don't go there yet and now that I'm here, it'll probably be a while before I do. But I am pretty smart.

Hm....we could play a board game if you want. I always played those or chess, so I'm not sure how to play outside or anything.

[marcheradiuju]

Sure! You'll have to teach me how to play, but that sounds fun.

Um... what's your name? I'm Marche.

[shadow_genius]

I don't mind teaching you, anytime you want.

My name is Leon. It's nice to meet you, Marche. I'm actually pretty glad there's people my age here.

[marcheradiuju]

Cool! It's nice to meet you too. Yeah, it's good that it's not all adults here...
