Huh? [Miku looks over and smiles when she sees the big talking cat. How cute!]
Well, I heard this villaige was called Espoir

[hastablemanners]

Espoir, eh? [Sigh. That really raises more questions than it answers.]

Just one more thing ma'am - reckon you could point me in the direction of Kagutsuchi?

[songs_and_leeks]

Well, honestly I don't really know too much about this place, I just found myself here, and I heard this world was called Hypnosia...

Where is that?

[hastablemanners]

That so? ...Kagutsuchi's the place I was waitin' before I turned up here. Just can't seem to remember what happened between then and now. Guessin' a similar thing happened to you?

[unsureazure]

Oh, this is Espoir village, located in the city of Somarium's center----

[Noel explains as she turns to face the newcomer, but then... Oh. It's been a while since she's seen a beastkin. Especially when she hadn't met Jubei yet back home. Blink blink.]

Eh? A talking kitty....?

[hastablemanners]

[Jubei chuckles to himself]

Guess ya could describe me that way!

Matter of fact, I been lookin' fer you, kid. Name's Jubei.

[unsureazure]

[Looking for her? So he really IS a beastkin from her world. What in the world would he want with her---Wait.]

Huh? Ju... bei...? W-Wait, as in... THE Jubei of the Legendary Six Heroes?!

[BUT WASN'T THAT LIKE 100 YEARS AGO AJGHFJSFS---]

[hastablemanners]

[Geez Noel, no reason to freak out. Those ears of his are pretty sensitive, you know.]

...Somethin' like that.

[hatesviolence]

[he turned at being addressed to, but he had to take a moment to stare at the...cat? that was standing there.

he was sort of used to seeing weird things in this place, but this was kind of new.]

...Somarium.

[this world keeps bringing in weirder and weirder things.]

[hastablemanners]

[Is it really that weird? You'd think these people had never seen another beastkin in their life!]

You know yer way 'round this town? Reckon I must have wandered in here by mistake.

[hatesviolence]

[at least not in person.]

I've been around for a while so...pretty much, yeah. [a beat as he looks at him.] Need to go somewhere?

[hastablemanners]

Lookin' for a place called Kagutsuchi. Ever heard of it?

YESSSSS. ;___;

[atrumrebellis]

[If he approached Ragna from behind, Jubei likely would have recognized him immediately. Instead, Ragna himself, while just passing through Espoir saw a familiar... two tails. He hasn't payed much mind to the new arrivals since he's been here, but this one actually catches his interest.]

[It seems that his old master ended up here too. This is something he wasn't expecting at all... But. He walks up to Jubei, almost wanting to smirk to himself but maintaining his straight face.]

What, so you're here too now?

;; <3

[hastablemanners]

[Jubei can hear Ragna coming from a mile away. 'Here too'? Did Ragna know something he didn't? ...How embarrassing.]

Would it really kill ya to show yer Master a little respect, son? Most folks like to open with somethin' like 'hello'.

[Ragna had better keep that smirk off his face, or Jubei may feel compelled to smack it off.]

LATE SORRY SOBBB

[atrumrebellis]

Did you really expect that from me?

[HE'S HAPPY TO SEE YOU, HONEST. He crosses his arms.]

I didn't expect you of all people to show up in Somarium, though.

man have you seen the timestamps on this log?? i should be the one apologising to everyone

[hastablemanners]

[Oh, he knows. It's just in his job description to give you a hard time.]

Can't say I was expecting it myself. What do you make of this place?

[naivelysanguine]

[Having seen her fair share of odd citizens during her stay in Somarium, Euphie's not usually shocked by the sight of new arrivals. Even so, she is a bit taken aback by the sight of a talking, bipedal cat -- not that it wasn't a bit cute. She offers a bright smile.]

This is Somarium, and the village we're in is Espoir. It looks like you're a new arrival!

[hastablemanners]

[Well ain't that nice. Jubei finds himself smiling back.]

Oh, I ain't stayin' ma'am. Just tryin' to get my bearings.

[naivelysanguine]

[Her smile drops a bit at that. Telling people about the circumstances never was fun.]

Unfortunately, we don't really have a say in that, sir. People come and go at random intervals. It's all up to the world, I suppose.

[hastablemanners]

So yer in the dark about all this too, are ya?
