1 girl, 1 wet intro

[shotarcana]

Who: Minako Arisato and YOU!
When: July 23rd, evening
Where: Wandering through this plaza!
Style: Brackets for me to start; whatever you want to go on.
Status: Open like a store on Black Friday!

[So, Vatheon, a red-headed girl, dripping wet, is peeling off her wet orange sweater in the middle of the plaza.

For some reason, she doesn't seem all that surprised to be here. Nor does she seem particularly mortified to be stripping down to her skivvies in the middle of this place. She does, however, seem very curious about it all.

Expecting to be dead might have something to do with that.

She's found her starfish communicator, though, and is alternately playing with it, trying to get it to work, while looking around and trying to accost locals. They don't seem particularly inclined to help her. Maybe it's the attire.

Maybe you can be of more help...? If you don't go up to her, she'll go up to you:]

Excuse me, but do you have a minute?

I think it's usually a good thing. Sometimes when you don't have anything else, that's all you need.

[contemptibility]

I don't disagree with that, but one should also be careful not to make blind mistakes from it.

[And to be honest, he still doesn't understand what Minato saw in him back then that made him believe in him.]

[shotarcana]

Do you think he made a blind mistake?

[contemptibility]

That would depend on what exactly you're talking about.

[shotarcana]

In being optimistic about you.

[contemptibility]

[... Ugh.]

Really, why are you so curious about this?

[shotarcana]

What else is more important right now?

[contemptibility]

You just arrived. Don't you have more important things to worry about?

[shotarcana]

Maybe I will eventually, but you don't, right?

[contemptibility]

... Don't you have more important things to worry about right now?

[shotarcana]

Finding out if the person I'm talking to hates humans so much he might stab me when I turn around is pretty important, wouldn't you say?

[contemptibility]

[He blinks.]

If I were going to kill you, I would have already done so.

[Why stab them in the back when you can just stab them in the front—]

[shotarcana]

Is that something you'd just take someone's word on?

[She winks.]

It doesn't matter anyway. I didn't think you were going to really.

[contemptibility]

I despise lying. That's something that only lowly humans do.

[He shrugs slightly.]

As long as you don't give me a reason to kill you, I can't imagine there'll be a problem.
