[Good morning, Death City! Have an injured, unfamiliar teenager on your network this morning!]

I have a few questions.

[Gee, someone sure is to the point.]

First of all: Why do the sun and moon have faces?

[This, ladies and gentlemen, is the kind irritability that comes up when you don't get a good night's sleep. He would have a hard enough time just trying to get asleep considering that yesterday he showed up in a place half-way across the world (as far as he knows) instantaneously without any warning and a barely comprehensible excuse. But the feeling that someone was watching him a little too intently all night sealed the deal, and now Sasha is functioning on the half-hour of sleep he managed to get right before dawn.]

Second: Why is everything around here named so morbidly?

I know America is supposed to be the land of the backward, but could you at least tone it down for the newcomers? Sudden spacial displacement is jarring enough to begin with, trust me.

Third...

[He lets out a disheartened sigh.]

I'm trying to get to the clinic to get some stitches looked at. Two sets of conflicting directions have led me to...[He looks over his shoulder, and continues flatly:] "Death City Heights". [He turns back to the communicator.] So if someone could show me there, I'd appreciate it.

[The request is followed by a long, awkward silence of staring blankly at the communicator, then finally he mutters:]

Я говорю с зеркалом.

[And that's when his message ends.]

I think the faces on the sun and the moon are cute. [They laugh too it's just adorable to Yuuichi...]

I'm not sure why things are named as they are but I find the names a bit charming. It's like this whole town has a theme, and it really sticks to it!

Oh, and if you still need directions to the clinic, I can take you.

[ferroustigmata]

They're creepy.

I've already taken care of my errand at the clinic.

[itsalright]

Eh?? You really think so? [He looks almost disappointed.]

Well... at least they're smiling instead of crying, right?

And I'm glad to hear that you have, I hope things went smoothly for you.

[ferroustigmata]

Frankly, I don't think a different expression would have much of an impact on the fact that they're there.

[itsalright]

They're not much different from the sun and the moon at home though, they're just a bit happier.

[ferroustigmata]

Those aren't the kind of grins I associate with gaiety.

[itsalright]

[He tilts his head slightly and looks out of a nearby window to the sky.]

Well they certainly look like they're enjoying themselves to me. And I find that a lot better than if they were angry or depressed.

Wouldn't you be sad if the sun was crying?

[video]

[ferroustigmata]

[Roughly:] No.

[video]

[itsalright]

[He actually looks pretty surprised for a moment there, but he soon smiles warmly.]

Well, you'll get used to the sun and moon soon enough.

My name is Tsurugi Yuuichi, it's nice to meet you.

[Sasha's just a sourpuss.]

It's a pleasure, Hell-kun.
