[he's also out here wandering!! and looking slightly lost, most likely-- maybe he's technically from The Future, but that doesn't mean he's spent any real time around cities.
but at least he's not the only one here, even if he's only seen taka in passing.]
Excuse me-
[that comes with a friendly little wave, what's up emo kid.]
Have you seen much of this place already?

[because that's just how it is in this bitch of a genre, taka.]
Then I hope you don't mind if I accompany you, for now.
[he glances at the nearby buildings, head slightly tilted.]
I've had relatively little time to investigate it myself.

No? Then I take it this is a kind of scenery you're already familiar with... Shishimaru, wasn't it?
[grandpa is not fucking off, sorry, you've got company now.]
[grandpa is not fucking off, sorry, you've got company now.]
[well, he's still more talkative than ookurikara. ishikirimaru hums thoughtfully, peering off in the direction that invisible car went.]
The cities I've been in were nothing like this. Is it similar to your home?

...And perhaps some of the visible ones?
[he says it with that same little smile as usual, though.]

I suppose I do stand out a bit, here, but it's what I am used to wearing.
[he manifested like this, okay.]

Ah-
[that was
entirely unexpected?
but he's gotten used to dealing with this from kids, so ishi accepts the hug easily enough, giving him a little pat on the shoulder. hm. maybe this place is making him homesick?]

[they're just having a nice hug in this street, that's sure happening!
ishi lets this continue for another few moments before straightening, smiling down at him gently.]
There we are. Do you feel better?

We can always go somewhere a little different, if that would help. I understand that familiar atmospheres in an unfamiliar place don't always ease one's mind.
[yeah he definitely is just assuming taka is really homesick or something.]

Very well, then.
[it doesn't sound like nothing, but he also knows interrogating someone his age on that Does Not Work, so.]
But if it's nothing, then surely we should find something else to occupy ourselves with.

[i mean i'm pretty sure he's not from eras with drinking ages and taka isn't that much of a kid by past standards? so. this is fine.]
Nor have I. It's at least worth seeing, if nothing else.
[so he gestures for taka to come along, they're going to the bar and ishi is here to supervise.]

[they sure are, how the fk did we get here they just met
but ishi pauses after they walk in, taking a moment to look around the place.]
It's a bit... louder than I expected.
[it's the music, mostly. he proceeds inside, though, still taking the place in.]
