... its on.

Wh-huh? Oh! U-um... I-I have no idea what to say...

I already told you. Introduce yourself.

... are you sure this isn't just some odd dream? Maybe I hit my head back there.

Positive! *inaudible grumbling*

U... um... I'm... Haku... Yowane. Haku Yowane. H-hello. I'm... new... here I guess? Uh. I was kind of hoping maybe... some one's seen my siblings? I was with Neru, my sister... a-and my little brother and sister wandered off to explore the coast-

You're not near a coast anymore, in case you failed to notice.

*silence*

... Haku?

... I need a drink...

It doesn't usually happen unless there's danger. Evolution helps us gain more strength to protect our tamers.

We help our partner evolve and they help protect us.

O-oh.

*long pause, some unheard muttering between the two of them.*

... I don't think he likes me very much. That... probably isn't going to help me in the long run, is it?

[luminarydream.livejournal.com]

Why doesn't he like you?

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

*sighs* Well aside from calling me 'useless' and 'dumb' on more than one occasion, I get the feeling he was expecting some one... stronger than me.

[luminarydream.livejournal.com]

Well, if he likes strength, then he should still help you. It's the tamer that helps the partner get stronger and it's emotionally based from what we figured out.

All she wants to do is get drunk all the time! This is probably the most sober she's been in her entire existence! And she's completely clueless. What am I supposed to do with that?

Th-that's not true! You just assumed that because I was upset! A-and like you have room to talk! You haven't helped me at all. I had to tie you up with medical tape because you wouldn't stop saying mean things while I was trying to talk to Osamu-kun. And you were asleep when I tripped over you!

Well, she was taken to another world by some means most people aren't used to, so the cluelessness is almost EXPECTED.

Though you really shouldn't get drunk all the time, Miss Haku.

I-I've been working on that... really I have...

She's a cyborg. She's practically got the internet in her head anyway. You'd think she'd know SOMETHING.

Well I don't, so you have to treat me like everyone else that's new!

That doesn't mean she's used to transporting to another world. Relax and give her time to adjust.

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

.. *reluctant mutter* I guess she's not all bad...

[luminarydream.livejournal.com]

I'm sure you two will get along very well.

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

Riii-i-ight...

... I'll try.

[luminarydream.livejournal.com]

Just get to know each other and I'm sure it'll come easier.

[drunkkareoke.livejournal.com]

Mhm. Its not like we have much of a choice, right? I'm willing to try.

... yeah yeah, me too. Just watch the sake intake, would ya?

I will. Thank you very much for all your advice, Selene-san.

I'm happy to help, Miss Haku.
