[ It's nice to be outside... Though Rin has his eyes glued to his phone anyway.

He glances over at Kazuki. ]

Still working on the theory this is a terrorist plot?

[teenrebellion]

I dunno, man, the whole thing about other dimensions is a little out there, even for Adonis.

[damp]

Yeah, I thought as much once people started talking about not being from Earth.

[ sighs! ]

It's weird I kind of wish it was just a normal terrorist group.

[teenrebellion]

Not to mention how old some of them are.

[ nahida should be five, not five hundred ]

At least with terrorists, tlyou kind of know what to expect.

[damp]

Yeah, it's like every movie and TV show I ever watched is actually real.

[ he looks over at kazuki ]

By the way, you're around my age, right? Why were you involved with a terrorist group anyway?

[teenrebellion]

Right? I really thought some of them were actors when we first woke up here. I mean, a giant frog?

[ though that would be one surprisingly realistic costume. ]

And I'm not involved with them. They're the reason Shinjuku's quarantined, that's all. [ hm, actually... ] I guess Hana was one of them, but I never liked that girl, anyway. I just thought she was some annoying groupie, not a terrorist.

[damp]

[ kazuki really wanted to believe ]

I just meant you seemed determined to catch them. That's not something high schoolers normally do.

[teenrebellion]

What? No, I don't want anything to do with them. I have more important things to do than waste my time on those guys.

[ like play guitar!! ]

[damp]

Oh, okay. [ he relaxes a little ]

It's like everyone here has these fantastical backgrounds, you know?

[teenrebellion]

Yeah, I know what you mean. It's harder to find someone normal around here. Even Fukuzawa-san said they have powers and stuff in his Japan.

[damp]

Really?

[ he looks surprised for a moment before sighing ]

Yeah, plus there are people not even from Earth. I think I have a frog on my team.

[teenrebellion]

Yeah, apparently it's a different version of Japan. Really weird.

[ ... ]

You think? Shouldn't you, like, keep track of who you're linked with?

[damp]

[ closes his eyes ]

I only spoke to him through text, but I'm pretty sure Haru invited him to our team because he's a frog. [ SIGHS!! ] Have you met Gerard?

[teenrebellion]

That can't be the only reason, right?

[ haru. bro. ]

I met him on the first day. Thought it was a weirdly detailed costume or something, but he's really just some anxious guy, isn't he? Just... a frog guy.

[damp]

It was definitely the only reason.

[ bleak ]

I guess I'll meet him soon enough. You're with Setsu, right?

[teenrebellion]

He really likes frogs that much...?

[ dude. ]

Well, good luck. He sounded easy enough to get along with, at least. [ he perks up a little. ] Yeah, they're pretty easy to get along with, and someone's got to make sure they're taken care of, too. It works out.

[damp]

Taken care of? [ ??? ] Aren't they close to our age?

[teenrebellion]

Eighteen. But they've got this whole thing where they're always looking after everyone else, you know? They probably won't take time for themself unless we tell them to.

[damp]

Oh.

[ He looks thoughtful. ]

Yeah, I can see that being the case. You must be perceptive to notice that so quickly.

[teenrebellion]

I don't know about that... [ STOP EMBARRASSING HIM. ] It's just annoying to see people overwork themselves for someone else's sake.

[damp]

[ hmmm ]

You have a lot of experience with people like that?

[teenrebellion]

My sister is like that.

[damp]

Ah. Must be frustrating to see that from so close.

[teenrebellion]

It can be. If we can make sure Setsu doesn't go too far, though, it won't be so bad.

[damp]

[ Crosses his arms, looking thoughtful. ]

They have a military background, too. I doubt they even know how to relax.

... And this isn't the most relaxing place.
