where is yin yu on this god awful day? wherever he may be, giyuu (who is sporting a nice bruise) has been shuffling around and exploring places (and taking in all of the unfamiliar faces) when he spots him. he doesn't like the fact there's another face he recognizes but he approaches him nevertheless.
cautiously. ]
Yin Yu.
[ he doesn't seem too thrilled to see him here and apologetic, honestly. ]
[ yin yu has been mostly, as usual, helping others and exploring, looking for familiar faces and simultaneously trying not to look at anyone for too long all at once. he's up on the second deck when he hears giyuu's familiar voice.
... hm. his feelings are immediately conflicted, but, after everything they talked about at the end, it's. it is what it is. he puts his fist to his hand and bows his head, manners as impeccable as ever. ] Giyuu.
[ ... ] Are you alright? [ dude what happened to your face. ]
[ giyuu will hover in the spaces between the two "locations" of the booze and the entertainment, but return the bow all the same... he has...some manners. rather, he definitely has manners now after everything that has happened. attempt at manners? whatever. ]
If you're asking if I know anything this time around—I don't know.
[ which is a mixed blessing about everything. he kind of wishes he knew what was going on but if he did know what was going on then that'd only mean terrible things await them all. an empty mind is what he prefers. ]
I have no other information than what hasn't been openly discussed already.
I know you weren't able to say anything about it before. [ he wasn't either, after all. it's not that he doesn't trust giyuu, it's... well, okay, maybe a little. ] It doesn't seem like anyone has much of any information at all.
The information that people seem to have here is all relative to what we've already experienced.
[ which, honestly, what is more upsetting in a way? giyuu knew that the ritual they escaped had been performed countless of times before but to have the knowledge that different forms of it were also happening—
it makes him a little more than angry but he doesn't show it. ]
It's good to know what we all already know and could expect.
Perhaps, but even the bare bones have variables. Some of the others... I've heard things such as the island's curse weren't even necessary. [ just sex demons. ] We're as blind as we were before until this bus stops, I think.
[ why are two people from olden times standing in the middle of a place that's anything but old? who knows, but sometimes it's nice to go exploring with people especially in the name of their third task: a platonic date...
giyuu doesn't really understand the difference but there's nothing wrong with wanting to understand yin yu more. a lot has happened since they first met on the island and even more happened the other day. or, well, things became exposed. ]
whatever this is blows ghost city -- which is a metropolis and of its own right -- and the capital pretty much out of the water. even yin yu is stunned by it, stopped by the screens and the movement and...just about everything.
after a long pause, he exhales a slightly incredulous laugh. ] ...I suppose this is the type of world that Minako and the others live in.
[ giyuu won't laugh but he'll make some sort of noncommittal noise at yin yu. yes, this would be...the world that minako and the others like her would come from. the flashing lights and moving picturs. he can even hear music in the distance...
it's. a lot. ]
Yes. [ BUT WHERE DO THEY GO IS A GOOD QUESTION TO ASK.
....
... ]
...do you want to find something to eat here? I can read the signs.
[ gods. some of it is familiar - if yin yu looks at the signs enough, he can read a few characters, but it's honestly so overwhelming that it's much easier not to. even he can't help looking around like a surprised tourist... he's even older than giyuu is, in terms of ye oldes, so this is especially startling.

[ ... ] Are you alright? [ dude what happened to your face. ]
no subject
I'm fine.
[ he's not about to go on touching it though. ]
Someone was justifiably angry with me.
no subject
he's polite enough not to say anything besides - ] I see. [ though.
there's a beat: let's cut to the chase. ] Is this like before?

giyuu acknowledges what yin yu says and can't help the brief optimism that rarely would escape his lips. ]
Let's hope that whatever happens when the bus stops doesn't trap us the way that the island did.
[ you know, ditching them in the middle of nowhere with hardly anything. the fact that all of them had to struggle to survive... ]
me: wow im so caught up on my pcs! me, five minutes later: FUCK, NARU
[ yeah.
somehow, he feels like that won't be the case. (it sure won't!) this pc is so old because i am the worst i am sorry. ]
wk 3; wednesday??? maybe???

This place is certainly different.
