First Memory

[halfempty]

[Mac Anu]

[First, he takes an admittedly strong and perfectly formed roundhouse to the head. Like that wasn't bad enough. Then, the next thing he knows, he's in this completely unfamiliar place that looked a lot more friendly than Japan (or what was left of it), with new clothes and the only things linking him from his current state of mind and the memories he wished he remembered, gone.

If that wasn't enough to piss him off, it would be a godsend.

Of course, he was pissed. And it shows as he wanders around the place, completely confused despite getting some idea of what was going on. Didn't change how confused he was, or the fact that two plus two equaled seventeen right now. Yeah, he's a little slow on the uptake sometimes. But he's an honest guy. Especially when he vents his frustrations in the middle of public like it was nobody's business.

Like right now. At the top of his lungs.] Ugh... What a giant load of crap!

[the grin doesn't even diminish at that response]

Hmmm... Guess I should at least try and spare everyone's eardrums. So.

Any questions?

[halfempty]

Yeah... What's the damn deal with this place?

[Vague and open-ended. Good enough for him.]

[trap_factory]

Your guess is as good as mine. [his grin goes back to been a smile as he shrugs] You aren't the first and I doubt you'll be the last person this place will pull in.

Think of it like a video game turned real. What a thought, heh.

[halfempty]

[His hand ventures to his head, scratching it as his irritation shows.]

That's just a load of bullshit. [Even if it's true, the fact that it's happening is just bullshit.] A video game... geez.

[trap_factory]

Isn't it just? But here we are. Funny how life likes to turn out that way. [so much sarcasm in that one word but his expression isn't annoyed at all]

[halfempty]

[Ragna lets out a very annoyed groan. If this guy wasn't annoyed, then Ragna could be for the both of them.]

Funny? Don't kid yourself.

[trap_factory]

Oh, I'm not. Life's a game. Deal.

But this line of questioning's just going to end up in circles with how you're reacting. And people say I'm difficult. [laugh it's unpleasant]

[halfempty]

[This is pissing him off.] Don't go on like you know how I am!

[trap_factory]

[just as planned] Hooo? Why not?

[halfempty]

Because you don't, dumbass!

[trap_factory]

[he just laughs] All right, all right! Don't blow a fuse over it.

Hmph, guess that's my cue to leave. [a grin] Enjoy your trip. You'll be staying here a while.

[halfempty]

[If this guy leaving would help Ragna feel a little less irritated, he wasn't going to stand in his way. Just mumble obscenities under his breath as he tries to control his rising anger.

Everything in the universe was just annoying today.]
