[He fiddles with the screen after he first appears for a moment. Once he has it set he gives a big thumbs up to the camera with a smile. Excuse the slightly sweaty teenager in his sword practice clothing. He has been training when he gets the chance.]

Yo, I'm Takeshi Yamamoto, are there any places good for sword training?

[He has been exploring but he misses the dojo where he usually trains. He has one more question but first, a sparrow who looks to be made of rain flutters around his head while a pup with three short swords with blades appearing rain made as well pops up to lick his face. He laughs.]

Oh, Jiro and Kojiro say hi too. Does anyone need any help with projects or jobs? [He would like to keep training but also get involved in helping around Anchor any way he can.]

Yes! Good guess
Cool, have you ever been to Japan?
(Thank you, that would be great, I'm used to answering to it. Only my old man calls me Takeshi.)

[livingdeadgirl]

yeah but only once
i was like 4 years old
so mostly all i remember is my sister kicking my chair the whole flight

i was taking japanese in school though!
before i ended up here
unfortunately im pretty rusty now
on account of how ive been stuck in another dimension for a year
but hey maybe nows a good time to pick it back up

[tsuyoi_ame]

I guess that's how siblngs are, I am only child.

That's a long time; everyone seems to have been here awhile.

I could help with your Japanese, if you want?

[livingdeadgirl]

lmao lucky you
anyway yeah if you could help that would be great!
i apologize in advance for sucking at it :p
ganbattemashou!

not everyones been here that long
and i guess its only been 10 and a half months technically
but peters one of the first people who showed up
and hed only been here about a month when i arrived
if at any point you have questions about life in anchor
either of us would be happy to answer them!

[tsuyoi_ame]

It's not so bad I guess.
I'd be glad to! You won't know till you try, you might be great!
ganbatte kudasai!
Do you know English or Italian? I'd like to try learning one of those.

I met Peter; he was cool!
I'll remember that. Thank you!
I like it here so far.

[livingdeadgirl]

[ Heh! It's a little unusual that he's so happy to be here, but Ami can't fault the guy for having a positive attitude. It's a breath of fresh air. ]

yeah english is my first language!
id be happy to teach you :)
unfortunately all the italian i know is spaghetti ravioli tortellini

[tsuyoi_ame]

[He is a go with the flow kind of guy, having a friend with him on arrival helped sure but in the end, Yamamoto always tries to be upbeat]

Awesome!
Thank you so much.
That's okay, Gokudera could probably teach me if I ask. He's part Italian.

[livingdeadgirl]

well there you go!
you are all set
i assume thats a friend of yours back home?

[tsuyoi_ame]

Yup!

Yeah, but he's actually here with me too, we showed up the same day.

[livingdeadgirl]

oh thats awesome!
and rare! you guys got lucky
or equally unlucky depending on your point of view
you know for a while we had a family where three or four siblings were all here at once?
theyre all gone now but a couple of them were cool

[tsuyoi_ame]

I think it's lucky, we're stronger together!

Whoa, that's a lot of the same people, I wonder if the rest of our friends will show up.

[livingdeadgirl]

yeah you never know!

[ She briefly considers telling him about the friends she's had show up over the time she's been here - but does that count? They've never been quite the same people she knows. They're those people before dying and reincarnating. Familiar, yet different - just enough to make things incredibly awkward.

... Nah, she'll just change the subject. ]

anyway
if you need an adventure guide later on id be happy to
there are a few things i want to pick up anyway
ill just need to get a new helmet made first

[ Since, uh, she can't fit her horns into the existing ones. ]

[tsuyoi_ame]

Exactly!


Oh, that would be great!
Let me know if you need help getting anything.
I'd be glad to go whenever you have time!
