[There is a frowning boy staring at his communicator, his brow furrowed and he looked worried.]

I'm not sure if this is working, or how a mirror works much like a phone. However, that's not why I decided to try to talk to you all. I'm sure you don't recognize me. I'm a new arrival, after all. I've heard a great deal about this place from Vantas-san, so you don't need to worry about supplying me with any information. I'm more curious about the moon, and why it has a face. Is that normal?

[He thinks for a moment]

Ah, I'm sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet, have I?

[He smiles.]

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

It's just a quirk of this world. Among many others. [Smiles and shrugs.]

Oh, that's right! I'm Dylan Sharp.

[itsalright]

It's nice to meet you, Sharp-san.

[bellcaptain]

It's nice to meet you too! By the way, there's another boy called Tsurugi here. Do you happen to know him?

video;

[itsalright]

Well that depends. What does he look like?

video;

[bellcaptain]

Spikey blue hair, a little grumpy looking.

[Although 'a little' is putting it lightly.]

[itsalright]

[He chuckles lightly]

That sounds like Kyousuke to me.

video;

[bellcaptain]

So you do know him! Do you know Tenma as well then?

video;

[itsalright]

Ah, slightly. I haven't talked to Tenma-kun much but I know he is in my brother's soccer team and he's a good kid.

video;

[bellcaptain]

Aye, he's certainly enthusiastic. [Grin grin grin] Do you play football as well? [Since it seems so important to the other two.]

video;

[itsalright]

Ah, no, not anymore.

[His smile turns sad]

I can't.

[bellcaptain]

[No Deryn, learn some sensitivity and don't ask--]

Why not?

[Too late.]

video;

[itsalright]

My legs don't work anymore.

video;

[bellcaptain]

Oh. I'm sorry.

video;

[itsalright]

[He shakes his head]

It's alright.

video;

[bellcaptain]

[Tries to recover from that.]

But you used to play? Tenma is barking enthusiastic about it! I'm sure he's asked half of Death City to play by now.

video;

[itsalright]

Mhm, I played with my brother all the time before I lost my ability to walk.

[He grins a bit wider]

Has he?

video;

[bellcaptain]

Aye. The kid's passionate, I'll give him that.

video;

[itsalright]

I owe a lot to Tenma-kun. If it weren't for his passion, my brother wouldn't be able to play the soccer that he loves.

video;

[bellcaptain]

Really? That's quite impressive of him!

video;

[itsalright]

[He nods]

I didn't think Kyousuke could play soccer freely or happily after I had lost my ability to walk, so I'm very grateful Tenma-kun came along.
