Don't worry, Sis.
[ There's a rather ostentatious looking young boy wearing a lot of purple, with a large doll following him. Maybe you recognize them, maybe you don't. Either way, the boy and his large, self-walking and not so much talking doll seem a bit--well... lost. ]
Kagutsuchi can't be far from here...

Perhaps it's instinct, from helping people and being a part of SEES for so long. But--
She wanes herself off the tree she'd been leaning against, following a couple steps behind him until she catches up, suddenly walking by his side. ]
Hey there. You lost?

[ He watches Yukari with curiosity. She isn't particularly an adult (adults always put him on edge, he hated them, all they did was facetiously pretend to care--), and Carl is a very polite child on principal, so his manners are immediate with a small courteous nod. ]
You could say it's something like that, Miss. The Thirteenth Hierarchical City, Kagutsuchi... that's where I'm looking for. But I think we took a wrong turn somewhere...

[ Yukari repeats, a little bewildered. Doesn't sound like any city she's ever heard of in her history classes. Or anywhere for that matter. ]
...I-I dunno about that. But right now...you're on Tatsumi Port Island.

What's your name?

Oh, forgive me for my lack of manners, Miss.

how do you not recognize nirvana and the four-eyes thingy.

Heeey there, kiddo! ... Looking for something?

And becomes immediately defensive towards Hazama, taking it's own position in front of Carl. It's not pleased to see you, Hazama. It knows how dangerous you are.
Carl, on the other hand... ]
... What's wrong, Sis? ... Dangerous? You're saying he's... dangerous?
[ Blinking, staring. He IS an adult... ]
I'm sorry, but my sister says you're dangerous... even if I was looking for something, I doubt you'd be able to help me.
[ STARING. 8| He is polite but you are dangerous and his sister doesn't like you. At all. ]

[ shutup, nirvana. :T ]
Pfft, noooo...

Y'see, I don't ah, like fighting. I'm not even any good at it.

Hm, now what makes you say that? I am with Intelligence, you know.

But he looked familiar. Like she saw in a dream long time ago.*
You look a little lost there.

... Ah, excuse me! I am just a little lost. This... might be an odd question, Miss, but... have we met somewhere before?

... You too? I am getting this strangest feeling I have met you before, but I ... *a freon*
I don't remember.

Regardless, I feel it would be rude of me not to introduce myself. My name is Carl Clover. I know I may not look it, but I'm a vigilante...
[ He feels like her name is just on the tip of his tongue, somehow-- ]
It's nice to meet you.

Luckily, she spots another pair in the distance. So Carl will be approached by a deadpan girl his age carrying a legless wooden marionette and a huge trunk.]
... You there. Have you seen a girl with pink hair and a school uniform recently?
Reply
No, I'm afraid I haven't, Miss.
[ Carl looks up to Nirvana quietly. ]
... I wonder if she's like us, Sis...?

Hey, boy! Don't talk about us as if we aren't here! That's rude!
[Lieselotte gives a small sigh.]
It's fine, Elfriede. [Her attention goes back to Carl.] So you really haven't seen her around? This assignment is beginning to be tiresome...

Oh, hello again!

And this must be your sister! Fascinating! How does she function?

Oh... you want to know about Ada?
[ But then he smiles. Canas is a really kind adult. He's a little suspicious, but... it's okay. He's not calling her Nirvana, right? He just wants to know. So it should be safe! ]
Well, she runs on Ars Magus! She can be broken in battle, of course, since the more she moves the more she gets worn out... she's more a functional prototype than the real thing. Some people say she's one of the powerful weapons from the Dark War. They're called Nox Nyctores.
The Ars I use to control her is something like strings on a marionette, but they're not visible to the usual human eye, and you certainly can't break them. They run on magic, after all. Of course, I'm really good with this sort of Ars. I had to learn really quickly how to operate her, because she has a hard time operating on her own.
She shares my energy too, so if I get hurt, she'll power down.
[ He frowns for a moment, acknowledging an unseen voice. ]... I know, I know. I'll be careful, ( ... )
