001 [Action] Lobby!

[Have a perplexed, out of place Ryu. His attention is on a piece of paper in his hands, trying to make heads or tails of the situation at hand. The whole school thing was new to him, as, hey, farming communities don't really need education, they just need able bodies and sharp tools. Granted, he was deeper in the woods away from them, but it all fit together either way. He hadn't even begun exploring the school, let alone his own room. Any passerbys might notice a fishing pole leaning against the railing of the main walkway. It looked just like his clothing, in that it had seen a lot of time on the road.]

...Out of the frying pan, and into the fire, I guess.

[He pauses for a moment, trying to process their size against the Black Ship. His reaction is one of almost glee, an ear to ear smile pops up on his face.]

I hope I'll get the chance to catch one someday.

You'd have to go to my world to do it. I haven't seen any here, eh.

Well, who knows where we could end up after being pulled here? It sounds like a great challenge.

Heh. Well, if you do show up there, trying to catch a seaking might not be your largest concern.

Hm? I don't imagine many other people would try to bother me outside of my hair.

[Why yes, he had noticed he was getting some odd looks.]

Your hair would be considered more on the normal side where I'm from.

Really? Your world sounds like a fascinating place. Covered in water, fish the size of ships? I wouldn't mind checking it out.

It's got its moments in any case.

Like any place does, I'm sure. Have you been here long?

[And then it hits him. Social graces aren't his forte.]

I should introduce myself, huh? I'm Ryu.

Marco. I've been here about 4 months, eh.

How do you like it here? I mean, home is always home, but... I'd prefer to know what I'm in for.

I never got to go to school. I'm self-taught, a pirate. So it's actually nice to be able to have to the opportunity. The classes are pretty challenging, but I prefer that, since I'd get bored otherwise without my family to protect.

You and me both. I grew up in Cedar Woods with my two brothers, Rei and Teepo. If it wasn't for them, I'd probably be cur chow right now.

[Marco's remark about family causes him to smirk.]

You sound like someone I could respect, Marco.

Thanks mate, you too, eh!

What's what's a cure, and why would it eat you?

It's a type of animal. Not quite a wolf, and their saliva can be poisonous. Rei found me in the woods, not a scrap of clothing on me, and two of those things thinking I was the tastiest meal in the woods.

... Yikes, eh.

Although if those things took you down, you really don't want to face seakings.

I was a child back then. I'm still not quite sure how I got there.

Time Compression. Cause space glitches too.

[He hadn't really mentioned that was something of a partial lie. He pieced together how he got there, but really, Ryu didn't think these people needed to know about the Brood. At least, not just yet.]

Did it affect your world somehow? I mean, besides bringing you here.

Not exactly. But apparently there's alternate version of my world. Which gets complicated. [Stated quite deadpan.]

Another world? It sounds complicated already. [So for all he knew, maybe there was a Ryu out there with a blue goatee.]

Exactly. I only ever thought there was one.

You're not the only one. Do you think anyone back home would believe us?

Maybe, eh. They barely believe me as it is, but they're used to me saying weird things.

My friends probably would, but the rest of the world? That's a completely different story. No need to draw attention from the king a second time.
