[ STOMP, STOMP, STOMP. The comm is dangerously close to a stomping boot, peering up at a rather intimidating figure who hasn’t noticed it yet. In fact, it looks like he’s a little too busy tearing off a crown of twigs and berries from his head and throwing it to the ground. ]

...the hell is this? [ STOMP, STOMP, CRACK.Right on the communicator.

1/3 :D

[toplay_thefool]

[Another string of new faces, but this one - well, it's the shouting that grabs his attention more than the view itself. He knows that roar before he's even properly looked at the feed, a soft note of surprise in his throat -]

[toplay_thefool]

[ - Kanji. Much as he wouldn't wish anyone here, it is good to hear that voice again.

Even if it is bawling at the communicator.]

[toplay_thefool]

[He should put a stop to that, right.

It's with his usual almost nonchalant sort of calm that he responds, of course.]

Kanji-kun.

[renovative]

[ sorry, senpai. can't hear you from my pocket. too busy shouting. ]

--tHE HELL ARE YOU, PUNK?! TOO SCARED TO FACE ME?! I'LL KICK YOUR ASS STRAIGHT INTO NEXT THURSDAY IF I HAVTA. BITCHES GONNA GET PANCAKED WITH MY FIS--

[ this continues for quite some time. ]

Kanji!

[It's contagious. Souji might - almost - be smiling, because he's not sure even that will get his attention. Instead of waiting for a response, he's already on his way out of the village, up the track to the temple.]

[ And there, he will find Kanji, metaphorically flipping tables. IF THERE WERE TABLES HERE, THEY WOULD BE FLIPPED SO HARD, THEY WOULD EXPLODE, MAN. EXPLODE.

But there aren't, so they don't. But it isn't from lack of trying (or shouting) on Kanji's part.

But, as soon as he sees Henji Souji, he stops. and stares. ]

S-Senpai?!

[action]

[toplay_thefool]

[Henji Souji stands at the end of the track - for a moment, he's really just watching Kanji flail. It can be dangerous to get in the way of his stomping, even if there are no exploding tables in the vicinity.

He greets him, in true senpai style, with a small nod before coming closer. The sword hanging openly on his hip, and the rowan crown hooked over it, shift as he walks over.

And raises one hand in a silent, nonchalant wave (the other propped on his hip, of course) as if this the most normal thing in the world.]

H-Hey. [ in response, you'll get an incredibly awkward wave that kanji gives up on halfway through in return. ]

Uh. So.

[ the world's longest pause. ]

S'up?

[action]

[toplay_thefool]

Keep a hold of that, [he begins, inclining his head towards the wreathe of rowan that Kanji has, in his fury, thrown aside.] You're going to need it.

[Reaching into his coat, he holds out a link of iron to the other.]

This, too.

[He's aware that what he's saying, and what he's about to say, is ridiculous. So he puts on his best serious face.]

They help protect us from what brought us here - the fae.

[A pause, a breath. He's explained this several times to different people, but it never gets less bizarre.]

This isn't the TV world - or ours. The place is called Demeleier, and right now, we're stuck here.

[renovative]

[ with all the eloquence of a shotgun: ]

What.

[action]

[toplay_thefool]

[to put it simply:]

We've been trapped here by faeries.

[action]

[renovative]

[ repeat, without fucked up HTML: ]

What.

[action]

[toplay_thefool]

[Souji's reaponse is to nod back towards the path he came up.

Let's go. :|]

[action]

[renovative]

[ follows. ]

Faeries.

[action]

[toplay_thefool]

Faeries.

[Hey, remember the rowan - pointed glance in that direction.]

What date is it?

[action]

[renovative]

[ Kanji stops, remembering the rowan. There's about three seconds where he debates leaving it there, but, hey, if Souji said it was important, it was probably important. So he runs back real quick, grabs it up, and returns to Souji. Smooth, Kanji. Smooth. ]

It's April. Hasn't been long since you left Inaba.
