[ okay well after meeting the npcs alex is just loitering around a random locked building near the mcdonald's. just. mulling over everything they've learned.
she gives setsu a somewhat strained smile, though. ]
Well. It's—better than having unanswered questions, I guess.

[ i hope alex at least treated herself to mc cafe. ]
I wasn't really expecting to see a guideline with expectations for the upcoming weeks, but I was hoping for just a bit more. Still, it's technically better than nothing. [ would be nice to joke around in times like this, but Setsu just seems a bit... exhausted. so their words don't come off as entirely amused or joking. ]
It's a start. [ "at least." ]

They did say they will be around if we need anything. So, if we can think of more questions to ask, maybe we can get some more answers.
[ so really, it's more than what they could've asked for. they really could have just been left in the dark. "no npcs 8w murder game when" ]
..How have you been otherwise? [ it's a Lot. ]

It can be. [ they can agree with that. ] It's why I feel like I learned more by observing what the others were asking.
[ they look back, blinking a bit. ]
...I'm alright. I'm used to being under pressure and strange predicaments, so... I'm more worried about others.

Ancient arts of that kind unfortunately escape me. [ ancient arts...? ] I've mostly been with the military, and more recently board the interstellar cruiser D.Q.O.
[ a brief pause, seeming to think this over. ]
...I'm not used to having downtime, admittedly. I'm far too used to constantly being on the move and gathering info. I guess it wouldn't hurt to give some of them a try.

[ they nod like that seems okay. ]
I didn't ask if because I wasn't sure it'd be something he'd share, but he did say it was for personal reasons before that he got spirited away. And that it was strange for him to "be surrounded by strangers."
[ a strange man. ]

Kazuki had seemed a bit weirded out that I was not in school as well, given our same age.
[ so it's a bit funny in a way that alex thinks it's cool, whereas kazuki thought it was Weird. but they don't seem upset by it. almost as if it's interesting. ]
I'd.. feel a bit more comfortable, yes. Of course, most of what I did before was mostly gathering information, so I can just do the same thing here. It's just... very different, and obviously so.

Pretty early on, I originated from Base Fifty-Two-- it's a Federal Galactic Army base. So it feels like I was always training with the military, before I began my interstellar travels.
[ and zetsu does not know more than that sweats ]
... Thanks, Alex. I, um.. I'll keep it in mind. [ sheepish... though honestly, sometimes they kinda just need to be dragged into things like that. otherwise they'll busy themselves with Work. ]
