[Kratos is standing underneath the cover of a few trees, gazing out over the yard and looking epic. Of course, that comes with the careful, pensive look he's wearing. Not only have his problems just begun to escalate around the world he's residing in, but he's trying to figure out the nature of this dressing room-type place.]

... Hmph.

[walks over to him apprehensively] Kratos? Is... that you?

[cruxified]

[Oh jeez. Kratos can't disguise the way his eyes widen, just a little, at Mithos' approach. Maybe he won't notice.]

Mithos.

[rainbowjudgment]

[uh, what? Mithos, if anything, seems really happy] I missed you. It's hard to learn to fight without my number one teacher, you know?

[cruxified]

[... Oh dear. He's a bit caught off guard, but steels himself. This was inevitable, really.] My apologies. I've only just arrived here, but I could still give you a lesson.

[rainbowjudgment]

Oh, you just came? Don't worry about it then. I'll wait until you settle in here since... well, there's not really a way back home.

I can travel between here and where my girlfriend is, but that's about it.

[cruxified]

[a slight nod] I can travel between here, a forest, and a castle, but Sylvarant is none of these.

[a pause]

You have a girlfriend? [STOP THE PRESSES. This definitely isn't the Mithos that tore the worlds apart. Not yet anyway.]

[rainbowjudgment]

Course I do. [grins] I'm no slowpoke like Yuan. If I like a girl, I let her know.

I wish I could show her to you since she's the most amazing person I've ever met, but I can't seem to remember this place when I'm with her. [Amnesiacs tend to not want that. And his girlfriend's actually a Golden Sun canon.]

[cruxified]

What does that make me, then? [A trace of humor in that. And also a question of how much Mithos knows.]

That is a characteristic of these in-between worlds. Perhaps if you had a picture painted of some sort...

[rainbowjudgment]

Jeez, Kratos. You're even less talkative than usual. [playful nudge] But I told you. You're the best swordsman sis and I have ever seen. And you sacrificed a lot to travel with us during the War. Assuming the war's over, that is.

Oh, right! I'm glad I got someone to draw her the other day. [rummages in his pocket for a picture and holds it up.]

[cruxified]

[Kratos only gives a slight nod.] It's over. [They ended it their own way, and condemned the world because of it. Oops. >>]

... Hm. [He studies the picture, then a small smile, so tiny it might be imagined, crosses his face.] A human? What is her name?

[rainbowjudgment]

Ah, I'm glad. I was worried that Colette might've gotten mixed up in the fighting when she left.

Yeah. Her name's Jenna.
