◆ "Yeah, sounds like it." He commented, clasping his hands and dropping them into his lap. "But, Japan's pretty cool too, isn't it? Aside from all the earthquakes and stuff. Then again... You grew up there, so it's probably not nearly as cool to ya. Anyways..."

□ Letting out a soft burst of air through his nostrils, he leaned back into the bench's rest and only winced a smidge as his spun pressed into the varnished wood. Just as he got comfortable the entire bench felt as if it were about to give way to a second person, and in that moment he rolled over into her, wavy hair cushioning his head from smacking against her arm too hard. Realizing it probably looked suspicious, he quickly adjusted once more, and let out a sheepish laugh.

▪︎ Well, that was awkward...

◆ "The facilities? Or just the basics of the craft? Because, well... I work around the chem lab. I'll literally give you quizzes on that shit, mate, don't test me." Silas chuckled. "Anyways, yeah, guess you didn't know how rough it was until you went to the big city, huh? Sounds oddly quaint, if a bit mind-numbingly boring. Also, fuck yeah, bnuuy."

"The earthquakes are pretty uh.. Annoying to say the least, i lived in a pretty good area for it though, I'm pretty sure, there were a couple a' bad ones but its like.. Whatevs." She shrugged, not really sure on what to say in life in Japan. It was probably shockingly similar to Silas's, after all- I mean- she lived in a house of sorts, went to school at the local town and liked myspace until the inevitable death of myspace. What else was there to say?

As Silas accidentally rolled into her, she let out a surprised yelp, which then fell into a cascade of giggles, despite her towering physique, it seemed completely in character for her to laugh like that, like a 12 year old girl playing kiss marry kill one direction edition or something like that. 

Once she was over it, she excitedly clapped her hands together
"Thats the word! Facilities!" She exclaimed, eyes shut in glee and a large grin on her face.

Though her ecstatic visage soon faded back to the default smile.
"I guess so! Big cities are overwhelming sometimes... But i dont mind! I just try to tune it out as best i can and enjoy myself. So many shops.. It's kinda scary, honestly"

◆ "Fair enough, mate."

□ It seemed pretty understandable to Silas that this chick didn't have a ton to say about her hometown. Growing up in the rural countryside of any nation sounded rather boring, at least to a city born and raised young quing, but that was just the luck of the draw. If one was lucky they'd be born into extreme wealth and never have to worry about a single thing, and more often than not suffering pervaded every strand of life, and it was the latter that Silas had been born into. Somewhat. Looking over at Hatsume as she laughed, he could already see that the girl was just at the beginning of a journey, but after his last time meeting another trans person he knew better than to immediately comment.

▪︎ So, instead he sat there, ethereal and pretty, the wind gently tossing his marble cake hair around.

◆ "Yeah, big cities are... They're an entirely different animal, honestly. I've been in them my whole life, but even now huge cities – like, for example, I went to Berlin with my mom once and damn near got lost several times – trip me the fuck up." He laughed. "The shops are only scary if you have money, mate. Or if you're hungry; hungry and a heavy wallet is financial mutilation waiting to happen. Speaking of which, don't expect any good meals here; this place might be pretty domestic and comfortable as far as prisons go, but that food sure reminds us all we're being fed slop that wasn't fit for supermarkets."
