[Rise's wondering about town too, getting used to it herself, when she notices Firo. She giggles a bit before approaching him.]

Hehe. Hi! Are you new here, too?

[justdumbluck]

[The sound of a normal person's voice causes him to visibly jump. For a few minutes he just stares, wondering if it's too much to get his hopes up that this person will actually be helpful.]

Hi... I-I dunno. I think I might be lost.

[enemyradar]

[She smiles.]

Lost, huh? I'm pretty new here, but I can try and help you if you want me to.

[justdumbluck]

You're lost too? Or, wait, did you just move here?

[He smiles. Whichever it is, it doesn't matter.]

I'd really appreciate help. Can ya point me back to Manhattan?

[ what are you doing in my window...

when he sees Firo there, he raises an eyebrow and walks over to open it. ] Did you know that this kind of activity is illegal?

[justdumbluck]

[...Admiring it?

Firo jumps back when a face appears.]

Didn't actually expect somebody... I'm just tryna' find out where I am.

[A pause]

I'm pretty sure it's not that illegal.

[kuichigiru]

Trespassing is illegal.

[justdumbluck]

[This is actually a welcome distraction from all the confusion.]

Am I actually in your house? I don't think so.

[Milly notices Firo sneaking around her house. She sits her pen down, gets up from the couch and sticks her head out the door.]

Excuse me...but what do you think you're doing? Don't you know it's rude to sneak around people's houses...especually a lady's.

[justdumbluck]

[He jumps at the sound of a new voice and wanders over to the door.]

Sorry. I'm just tryna' find out where I am.

And how was I supposed ta' know you were a lady?

[eatinurpudding]

Well you could have just asked someone or gone door to door. It would have saved you a lot of trouble.

[justdumbluck]

I tried askin' people but they didn't make any sense.

[But door-to-door is a much better idea]

...Oh. Right. Sorry. Any chance I could ask you for directions, since you're out here already?

[And Yin looks right back at Firo through the window. People really seemed to like trespassing these days... In any case though, she eventually opens the window.]

Did you need something?

[justdumbluck]

[Relieved to finally find help, he smiles.]

Ah, yeah, actually! I think I'm lost and I need directions. Any chance you could point me to Manhattan?

[pseudoll]

Although Mayfield is supposedly located within America, it will be impossible for you to go to Manhattan.

[justdumbluck]

It's- what? Even if there's not a train I can just find another way.

[why is there someone looking through the window

...He's staring back.]

[justdumbluck]

[Firo smiles at the kid and waves. If he really wants to get directions it's probably not a good idea to scare him.]

Hey, can I ask you a quick question?

action

[isolationbox]

[You're already scaring him, bro.

He goes over to open the window?]

Wh-what is it?

action

[justdumbluck]

[He takes a step back as the window's opened.]

Hi. I just need some directions. Can you tell me how ta' get back ta' Manhattan?
