[Despite the cold weather, Lloyd is sitting at a table outside of a cafe, a cup of hot chocolate in his hand. He's never liked staying cooped up inside, and now is no exception. Besides, it actually feels a little warmer compared to his first week or so in Somarium. He

[Jade normally wasn't one for accosting innocent passerbys and holding random conversations, but he was desperate to get more information.

So, of course, when accosted with the sight of someone treating the Dreamberry like he was possessed by a vengeful spirit, Jade naturally had to stop.

So have a shadow falling over you, Lloyd, and be greeted with a slightly mocking smile.]

I'm not sure that this is the wisest course of action to take.

[redcladidealist]

[When the shadow falls over him, Lloyd pauses and turns to look up, blinking at the unfamiliar man.] Huh? Why not?

[uncute_one]

Oh, no reason. We were whisked off into an unfamiliar land and entrusted with a mysterious device. I'm absolutely certain that pressing all the buttons you can won't do any irreversible damage.

[redcladidealist]

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, too! [Completely missing the sarcasm.] I mean, why would someone give us something if they didn't want us to figure it out? And if we want to figure it out, we have to try everything, right?

[And Lloyd wonders why the Raine didn't let him touch the computers.]

[smokesinspace]

[have a pilot who does not approve of Lloyd's actions.]

Idiot. Yer gonna break the goddamn thing.

[redcladidealist]

[Lloyd looks mildly offended by this accusation.] I'm not pressing the buttons that hard.

[smokesinspace]

Don't matter, yer gonna overload the damn thing. [mutters something about stupid kids and always wrecking things.]

[redcladidealist]

Pressing buttons overloads this thing? That doesn't make sense. Aren't you supposed to use the buttons?

[Your favorite roommate ever was walking around Somni like he usually does and spotted his friend. Once he saw what he was doing, he gave him a weird look.]

The hell are you doing?

[redcladidealist]

[Lloyd makes a face at Zelos. Still not entirely happy with him.] I'm figuring this thing out.

[demonspear]

[That's a look of undying friendship, what are you talking about?;A;] Trying to break it sounds more like it.

[redcladidealist]

Am not. [Lloyd holds the Dreamberry up.] See? It's perfectly fine.

[1blackcat]

[Hi Lloyd. Omi remembers you. And he doesn't think what you're doing is a good sign at all.]

Ah-- Lloyd-kun! What are you trying to do?

[redcladidealist]

It's Lloyd. [Lloyd grins. He remembers Omi, too.] I'm just seeing if I can figure out how this thing works.

[1blackcat]

[Looks just a bit awkward. Doing without the honorific? He supposes he can try but it really isn't proper!]

Do you not know? I'm sorry; I didn't realize... But I can show you the controls.

[redcladidealist]

[Lloyd just doesn't realize what honorifics are. He thought Omi was mispronouncing his name.]

[He shakes his head.] No, I don't. You do? [He gestures toward a seat at his table.] Man, that would make it so much easier if someone showed me how.

[notjust_risette]

[It's a little hard to ignore the sounds of constant beeping coming from the Dreamberry. Rise approaches Lloyd from behind, peeking over his shoulder as she comes close enough.]

I don't think you'll get anything done that way.

[redcladidealist]

[Lloyd leans his head back until he's blinking upside down at Rise.] Huh? What makes you say that?

[notjust_risette]

[She laughs slightly at the look on his face before moving to look back at the Dreamberry.]

You're just pulling up menus that you don't need for... whatever you're doing.

[redcladidealist]

Menu? [A brief flicker of confusion crosses Lloyd's face.] But I'm not ordering anything else to eat.
