Tch, so now we have to worry about some freak throwing powder at our faces? What the hell kind of place is this, anyway?

First fog, now this? Why don't we just live inside, from now on?

I don't think any amount of training is going to stop evil fog or evil powder.

At least it'll help.

[storm_flame]

All you really need to know is what he looks like.

[livelyhood]

Doesn't he wear a mask?

[storm_flame]

Then I guess we'll just have to stay away from anyone who's creepy enough to wear a mask.

[livelyhood]

If you can spot him first. Hopefully.

[storm_flame]

People who aren't aware of their surroundings shouldn't go outside in the first place. No powder-throwing freak would ever get close enough to me for it to matter.

[ a beat. ] Did you come from a war, too, before arriving here?

[storm_flame]

It was.. kind of. Only a few of us even know it's going on, but it's some weirdo trying to take over the world.

You did too, I'm assuming?

[livelyhood]

Take over the world... without any of the public knowing they're being controlled?

Yes. Many people seemed to have been.

[storm_flame]

[ he shrugs. ]

It's complicated. We had to go to the future to save the past.

[livelyhood]

Oh.

[ blankly. ] It's lucky you could time-travel.

[storm_flame]

I guess. If we didn't, some psycho would take over our world. It's a pain in the ass, really.

[livelyhood]

I'd imagine it was.
