Tsukumo 01. Have some more delicious tl;dr.

*...he's not exactly comfortable in the uniform. Oh, it fits fine, he can move perfectly well in it, it's even a little bit stylish. But the fact remains that this is a uniform for a SeeD, or at least somebody who wants to be a SeeD... along with everything that implies, although he doesn't much know what it implies yet, considering how little he

[Kamui made his way outside before groaning at the sea of people. He weaved his way through, but ended up bumping into someone in his haste.] I'm sorry! I should have been more careful!

[robinsknell]

*he stumbles backward a little, but catches himself before really losing his balance, fortunately at least managing to hold onto his package of sweets. Glancing up toward the other young man with a slightly surprised blink*

Ah... it's no big deal. Are you all right...?

ok, NOW would be one of those rare times to read minds >.>;

[eggplantallergy]

[Kamui blinks up at the attractive male in surprise, all the while trying to compose himself in order to not look like a fish.] I'm fine, really. I should be asking you that, though.

[robinsknell]

*...did that guy just look up at him and think "attractive"?

The expression on Tsukumo's face doesn't change, nor does he say anything, but he goes a little pink as he shakes his head*

No, I'm fine, really... it's okay. You must have been in a hurry...?

[eggplantallergy]

[Kamui made sure not to stare too long. It would be rude, and obvious that the other was appealing to the eyes. He was sure he probably didn't have a chance anyway. He smiled softly before responding to the questions.] Not really, I was just trying to find the dormitory. Do you happen to know where they are?

[robinsknell]

The dorms? Um... *pausing to scratch his head a little before looking around. The door he came in is over that way, and if he remembers right...*

.....I think... if you go back this way, and go straight, and...

*pause again. Frown. Headscratch* Actually... I can show you? Maybe? Um, I'm new here too, to tell the truth. *brief, gentle smile* But I think I can help.

[eggplantallergy]

[The directions seemed easy enough to follow, but then the other paused in his explanations, making Kamui wonder what was wrong.]

Ah, that sounds better! Getting lost alone doesn't seem like a good idea. [He couldn't help but grin, thankful for the extra help.

[robinsknell]

...Sure. We can just get lost together. *brief, quiet laugh. Despite the words, though, he's fairly sure of where he's going as he motions for the other boy to follow, heading back toward the exit of the Quad.*

Your Japanese is pretty good... Are you native? *he can't help wondering, based on the slight hint of what might be an accent.*

[eggplantallergy]

[He blinks in surprise at the comment.] It is? I don't think I'm that good. I just...studied a lot. This isn't my first language.

[robinsknell]

...wow. That's pretty cool. *he's especially impressed because he's always been an apathetic student of foreign language, himself. Talk about unfortunate that he'd get dropped into a place where the main language is English.*

Did you live in Japan? Or...? *curious look as he continues heading down the corridor back into Garden proper. He's already met one person who speaks Japanese and yet comes from a country that doesn't exist in his own world, so he's not sure what to expect.*

[eggplantallergy]

...you think it's 'cool'? [Most of his the people he met couldn't understand why he sang in Japanese rather than his first language.]

...Japan? No, it wasn't called that. My family traveled a bit. My father was in the military.

[robinsknell]

*brief eyebrow raise at that, but he fails to feel exactly surprised. Languages from his own world existing in other worlds seems to be a fairly common event, from what he's seen here so far. Even if it is pretty weird.*

Well... sure. Being dedicated enough to learn a language... I know some English, but it's not very good. *brief smile*

....I think... we're headed this way... *pointing down the hall as they go*

...by the way, what's your name?

[eggplantallergy]

Well, if you need help with English, I'd be happy to help. [Smiles as well.

Stumbles a bit, realizing they were conversing and hadn't exchanged names.] Sorry! I'm Kamui
