Who: Four mercenaries and YOU
When: Day 5
Where: The Pier
What: An intro! A rainy intro...

[ A bit of rain doesn't stop new arrivals, apparently. Though the whole tossing confetti thing is probably not going so well given the rain but whatever, new people yay. ]

[ This particular set of arrivals are all wearing identical outfits and look ready for business. A couple of of them look to have rifles even. ]

See? Now this is a welcome. Why didn't this place pick us up first? I've even got all my clothes on and everything.

[ ... What a friendly looking bunch! ]

Allies are people we can trust. So far we have no idea who we can trust here, except for that girl from your Squad. We don't even know if we can trust the Queen.

You don't know unless you talk to people first, Mika. We'll never get anywhere here if we keep to ourselves.

[ ANNOYED. ]

We don't need anyone else.

That's a little ridiculous, don't you think?

This isn't the same world we came from. If it's just us together, as a family, we can make it just fine.

Mika...

[ exasperated already. ]

Yuu-chan, you don't even know those what those filthy humans are like except dangerous.

[ sighing. ]

I'll be cautious around them? The little blonde one didn't seem very harmful at the least?

[ He has guilt by association and Mika's mouth twists, but he doesn't push anymore because Yuu is not going to listen to him more than that. ]

Don't worry so much, okay? I can hold my own.

[ But he's staying right here with Mika right now, so. He can't be mad right now. ]

... Easy for you to say.

[ But yes, Mika is lightening up a little too at that reassurance and closeness. ]

That's because it's true, and I know you wouldn't make me fight alone... if there was a time that I needed help.

That doesn't change that you should avoid getting into a dangerous situation in the first place, Yuu-chan.

Are you going to act like this every time we come across someone new? Not everyone is dangerous.

[ i must soothe my vampire, soothe him gently... ]

[ But that is the opposite of soothing ]

They're people. With. Weapons.

So? They didn't threaten me.

That doesn't mean anything.

Mika....

[ EXASPERATED AGAIN. ]

[ That makes them both. ]

... let's just go, Yuu-chan. We have to find some work today.

Fine. We'll go.

[ Sticking really close to Mika, TO APPEASE HIM. FOR NOW. ]
