[What ho Paradisa. If you are the lobby now, you might find a somewhat unusual sight: three kids - well, two kids and one young teenager, really, the teenager conspicuously naked and sprawled out on one of the lobby couches. The teenager has long blue hair and is filthy. The kids are relatively clean, one of them - the older boy - graced with a crown of pale blond hair, the other a smaller little girl wearing a traditional robe and black pigtails. There's a journal nearby of course, and it picks up a voice which might sound a bit familiar:]

Hey... person! Hey! How come you're naked?

[Then the younger boy:] Because he's got no clothes, stupid.

I'm not stupid! [That seems to rile the little girl up; she gives the boy next to her a push.

It looks like this minor ruckus is enough to wake the third boy anyhow.] Whuh...?

[What do, Paradisa?]

[ooc: Yep, starting this loss a tad earlier than planned; tagging pattern will be something of a clusterfuck. There is no particular order planned; if you'd like to discuss any details, ping Stick on AIM at teamtoques, Red at LostBlueHeights, or Senri at Sushiflop.]

Yeah, what were we like? [Legato's question is better.]

[bedninja]

[Apparently Pharos disagrees, because he's much faster with responder to Zelman.]

Not at all. It is simply that as I know you, you are typically larger than this. [But then he smiles.] You seem somewhat more cheerful now than you do in the future, Rin. It seems it has been some time since I heard from you when you were actually happy... You are not an unpleasant person, however.

... I cannot say that you have changed a great deal, Legato. Your silence thus far has not surprised me at all, and neither has your observation.

It is significantly more difficult to describe you though, Zelman. I hold you in very high regard.

I believe that he will be very proud of you.

[...he doesn't like this one bit. That mysterious bit of praise in Zelman's direction has him glancing over at the younger boy. Suspicious. Automatically defensive. Who is 'he' and why is he proud of this boy?


He doesn't voice any of it, however. He'll stick to the other thing that bothers him.]

That's not my name.

[he looks... confused? but doesn't say anything. this is a lot to think about. :X]

You burn with more heat than anything else I have ever seen... And perhaps just as brightly as Minato.

[He smiles, and for an expression from Pharos it's actually on the soft side. It's pretty obvious, in the way that it is with people sometimes, that he thinks pretty damn highly of Zelman. Sorry Rin!]

[bedninja]

[then after a pause looks to Legato, as if he hadn't quite heard him at first.]

...It is not?

I apologize. I was not aware that you went by anything else when you were younger. Would you prefer to be called something else, in that case?

[beforepride]

[...] That doesn't make any sense.

[prevenge]

[Fanboys will do as they will. She'll remember it later - but them's the breaks on both sides!]

O... kay...

[She kind of wants to wander off, looking towards the kitchen alcove (though of course she has no idea what that is) and then to the stairs -]

[bedninja]

Do not worry - many things that I say are not understood by the people I wish to understand them, and I would not expect what I have said to actually make sense to you right now.

[He tilts his head though, and peers at the kitchen alcove as well, to see what it is that Rin is looking at.] Did you wish to meet the ghosts?
