Mao's Battlebook: Entry 001 ♪ action

[blazing_heart]

<sub>[Hey Luceti!

There's this one redhead, who's walking around the village as if he was looking for someone. He doesn't really seem lost, but judging from clothes he's wearing, he's obviously new here.

After a moment of searching though, he scratches the back of his head and makes a thoughtful look. It seems he won't find his friends here. But they're okay for sure, so there's nothing to worry.

And so, instead, Mao turns around and walks up to the first person he sees.]</sub>

Excuse me! Can you tell me where am I?

[blazing_heart]

I don't think so.

_{[but he is not going to answer what makes him say that.]}

[Action]

[blazing_heart]

Nightsticks?

_{[there Firo, you can even borrow them for a moment, if you want. But only for a moment.]}

[penetrated]

Eh~... So you're a fighter? [he's thinking like, karate practitioners and stuff here.]

[Action]

[immamartillo]

It's another kinda weapon.

[ He smiles as he tests their weight, and then he hands them back to Mao. ]

Pretty neat!

[Action]

[blazing_heart]

_{[Mao smiles.]}

Thanks!

[blazing_heart]

_{[he used to be a soldier.]}

...I guess you can call it like that.

[penetrated]

So... did you fight in tournaments and stuff like that?

[blazing_heart]

Nope. But I fought a lot of monsters on my travels with Eugene and others.

[Action]

[immamartillo]

[ And he can't resist asking... ]

How good are you with these?

[Action]

[blazing_heart]

Pretty good, I guess?

_{[so modest, isn't he?]}

[penetrated]

'Monsters'...? Um, there are things like that in your world?

[accepted]

Huh? Why not? It'll be pretty sad if you don't remember everything you know.

[so of course he needs to ask why that is.]

[Action]

[immamartillo]

I'd like to see you back that up someday.

[blazing_heart]

Yeah! There aren't any in your world?

[blazing_heart]

_[...]

Does it really matter that much? The past isn't important, what matters the most is the future! ... Or something like that, right?

[Action]

[blazing_heart]

_{[he laughs a bit.]}

No problem.

[Action]

[immamartillo]

Great.

But before that, you should find a place to stay. The apartments here are free, or you can stay at the Visitor's Center until you find somewhere.

[Action]

[blazing_heart]

...I see. Well, I guess I'll stay at that Visitor's Center for now.

_{[he's kind of tired already.]}

[Action]

[immamartillo]

Ya want me to show you the way?

[Action]

[blazing_heart]

Yeah. _{[he smiles.]} Could you?

[Action]

[immamartillo]

Sure. This way.

[ Firo turns to leave the store and waits for Mao before exiting. ]

[Action]

[blazing_heart]

Thanks a lot!

_{[Mao just follows!]}

[penetrated]

There aren't any literal ones, I guess? I mean, we have urban myths, but actual monsters is a little...

[accepted]

Ah, yeah, right! The future is very important!

[Even if there are some things in his past that he would like to know more about.]

[Action]

[immamartillo]

[ The Welcome Center isn't far and it doesn't take them long to arrive there. Firo props the door open. ]

There's a buncha' friendly people workin' here. They'll help you get settled in. Think you'll be alright?
