[This... was not where he expected to be. That's apparent by the look on his face, which is both confused and cautious. He reaches for something at his side, only to find it missing and a strange book tucked into his hakama-himo where it should have been.

This appears to anger him slightly. He looks suspiciously at his surroundings and whispers to no one in particular.]

...Has he managed to fool us once again?

[Finding no answer or immediate danger in his surroundings, he flips open the book, looking for clues.]

What is this?

[Will looks at him with concern.]

Did you just now arrive?

Action

[lifeandpride]

[He wasn't expecting to see someone so young. He knew he should be wary, but something about children tugged on his heartstrings a bit.]

Er... yes. I guess so.

Action

[beyondimagining]

It isn't all bad, here. But it does take some getting used to.

[lifeandpride]

[He approaches and squats down to a more child-friendly height.]

I see. You aren't from here, then?

[beyondimagining]

No, I was taken from my home some five months ago. Like many of us here.

[lifeandpride]

[He nods and looks thoughtful - then concerned.]

You've been away from your home for five months? Do you have someone who looks after you?

[beyondimagining]

If you mean to ask if I have any family here the answer is no. I am the only one here from my world.

[Will gives him a distantly polite smile.]

But there is no need to worry.

[lifeandpride]

There's not? Well, why is that, then?

Will can generally tell when someone is human or not. okay to have him sense this?

[beyondimagining]

[In response Will only frowns lightly at him, before nodding to himself.]

You might say that I am not much like other children. But then you are not much like most humans, are you?

absolutely fine. I take it you're famillar with the fandom?

[lifeandpride]

[He pauses here and loses his smile - that just brought up more questions. If he were in soul society, normal souls would be able to see him but... In any case, there was no sense in lying about it.]

...no. I am not.

familiar, but only through the soul society arc. Do you know Dark is Rising??

[beyondimagining]

You do not feel like it.

that's enough to know what he is :3 unfortunately no, D:

[lifeandpride]

Do I feel like something else?

[He didn't want to reveal anything about himself just yet - or scare the child.]

XD, Will is both a human boy and an immortal piece of the magic force that balances the universe

[beyondimagining]

Not like anything I knew from my world. You are not of the Old Magic or the High Magic nor any power of the Light or the Dark or the Wild.

lawl XD that will be fun later.

[lifeandpride]

I can't say I'm any of those, no. Nor am I familiar with those things.

[He hesitates.]

Let's just say you have no need to fear me, all right?

[beyondimagining]

I have not anyone who is. Familiar with them, I mean.

A very wise man once told me this. You will meet with many terrifying and dangerous events in your life. But remember only this. You must never fear.]

[lifeandpride]

[Quite intelligent, this child. He smiles a bit, though he's curious what kind of terrifying or dangerous events someone of his apparent age would have to go through...]

A wise sentiment indeed. We all make better decisions when we are calm.

[beyondimagining]

So my master has said.
