The stranger said, not even flinching... his mouth did not move when he spoke, and he stood there. Not emoting in the slightest. "However, I thank you for removing the orbs. Now if you excu-" [quote=Olivia][color=DeepSkyBlue]“Oh wow!”[/color] [/quote] It interrupted him, and he turned towards the far smaller girl and simply stared at her. As she went on her rant, it seemed less like he was listening and more like he was deciphering her words. Until she turned towards Subject: Selena Phoenix, and Subject: Hatanaka, Yoko. That was when he spoke. "Describe it," The stranger started, "How does Gearmantic Hearts elicit such a strong emotion out of you? Describe the feeling in vivid detail." He tilted his head slightly, before turning towards Selena and Yoko and then back to Olivia as he said, [hr][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/zKBi4sl.png[/img][img]https://i.imgur.com/ko9vKT2.png[/img] [/center][b]Interactions:[/b] Selena Phoenix ([@Blizz]), Olivia ([@Ponn]) and that weirdo.[right][b][code]World Fighting Carnival - Reception Room.[/code][/b][/right][hr] [quote=Selena][color=c2c1ea]”Now then… Are you alright?”[/color][/quote] [color=gold]"Am I [i]alright?[/i]"[/color] Yoko incredulously parroted, then continued, [color=gold]"I could have handled that [i]myself[/i]."[/color] She proudly said with one hand on her chest and tapped her staff on the ground. Though, there was something wrong with the guy- [quote=Olivia][color=DeepSkyBlue]“Oh wow! You look just like Necroid 99 from Gearmantic Hearts! He’s my second favorite character, after Xolys of course! I really like how his energy rifle sorta looks like an old Thompson submachine gun. Especially how its drum magazine bears more than a passing resemblance to the Discs of Dayzothoth from…”[/color][/quote] Olivia caught Yoko off guard with a jolt, damn near dropped her staff, and went on a very bizarre (and nerdy) rant about...? Something. Whatever it was, the stranger was fortunately being distracted by her. Yoko could hardly care that the girl was in danger as it was a danger that she was putting [i]herself[/i] into. Though, Yoko leaned over to Selena and whispered, [color=gold]"Get a load of this nerd!" [/color] Then she chuckled. [quote=Olivia][color=DeepSkyBlue]“Oh gosh! I’m not interrupting anything, am I?!”[/color] [/quote] [color=gold]"No, uh, [i]no[/i],"[/color] Yoko started, with a smile on her face, trying her damnest to suppress her laughter. She grabbed onto Selena's wrist to pull her away as she whispered. [color=gold]"Let's let that weirdo deal with [i]that[/i] weirdo and move on with our day."[/color] [color=gold]"You, uh... hehehe... enjoy yourselves, you two!"[/color]
