Yoshi


Yoshi took a long look at the man who called himself Seijuro. He slowly answered. "Nice. To meet you, I'm Masato Yoshino." He was still unclear about this odd fellow but Hali seemed okay with him. "So where are you headed to?"


@Suzumaki Arakai


Senna


Senna watched the man introduce himself, she then hid behind Yoshi somewhat. She was confused on why the guy introduced himself and why he was pretending he didn't know what was going on. "I-I just wanted to protect Hali-chan, Yoshi oniichan. This strange man approached her." She said peering over to the guy. "I don't know what his intentions are."

(That went fast... xD )


Ioko


Ioko grabbed the seat as the train stopped to prevent her from bumping against anything. It looked liked they had arrived and silently she gathered her stuff together and followed Yoshi outside the train. There stood a man something around the same age as her and Hali, and it looked like the man with red her was making himself acquaintance to the group. She nudged Senna's arm and gave her a comforting smile as the girl hid behind Yoshi. "I am sure he is just hitting on Hali." Ioko grinned and also shifted her gaze towards the man. He looked somewhat overly happy and flirtatious. But well, complimenting a girl was not wrong, but he was just really...straightforward. @NickOnTheReg @Spotine @Suzumaki Arakai


Satsuki


He sighed and scratched his cheek while the others around him gathered to leave the train. Satsuki just found himself too tired to even lift a finger. The male just hang against the seats and waited till almost everyone had left. Then he got on his feet and slowly made his way towards the outside world, immediately fixing his eyes on Hali, who seemed to share a conversation with an strange male. Senna was hiding behind Yoshi, and Ioko was talking with the girl...or something. The male looked behind him to see if Makoto was already outside, but he couldn't spot his friend in the crowd.


"Hey mate, what is your deal?" Satsuki asked while taking a step forward towards the strange male. Although Satsuki found himself quite the flirtatious one, he didn't like others acting all great and straight forward.@Spotine @BobbyW @NickOnTheReg @Suzumaki Arakai

 

[Koyne]

Feeling how the train came to a sudden halt, Makoto jumped out of his seat and started gathering his belongings. He slipped into his backpack, readjusting the positioning of it on his back, before heading for the train's exit... But before he was able to actually get out of the train, a series of... Rather unique events took place right then and there. For some reason, Senna dashed out out of the train, towards Hali and a red haired stranger who was apparently named Seijuro, threatened to pepper spray the hell out of him, but fortunately got calmed down by Hali and Yoshi. Then, Satsuki went over there and involved himself as well, approaching Seijuro in a kind of hostile manner. Makoto watched what was happening from inside the train, peeking through one of the doors. His expression rapidly changed into a weird mixture of shock, confusion, and even a bit of fascination, the more he witnessed of the strange happening in front of him. It took the boy a moment to snap out of his trance-like state, but once he did that, he casually stepped out of the vehicle, walking over to the little group, still pretty confused. He started rubbing his forehead, struggling to come up with anything to say after... That. "Uhmm...." Makoto allowed his gaze to wander over all of the participants of this... Conversation, before locking his eyes on Seijuro.


"Uhh... Hi there, I... I'm Fujimoto, Makoto... Makoto's fine." The boy let out a faint sigh, before pointing over to Satsuki with his thumb. "...And the rude guy over here's Satsuki."

Satsuki was about the confront the other one even more, when he realized that actually no one was bothered by him. Still the male didn't like the attitude the strange man had. Suddenly Makoto appeared from no where and introduced himself. Satsuki realized he had to properly introduce himself too and was about to do that when his friend already did that for him. "Ah well...I am not really rude...just don't touch them.." He sounded quite silly and the male quickly rubbed his neck while pointing to Senna, Ioko and Hali. As they meant them whit what he just said. @Everyone

The goofy smile that seemed to be tattooed on the man's face still remained solid, not once fading as he spoke to the small ground. Hearing the man's name, he took his hand in his own and gave it a firm shake before looking down at the dark-haired girl, tilting his head lightly. "Hmm?~" He was just about to step around Yoshino when suddenly more people came over. Turning towards the man who spoke up first, Mikoshiba furrowed his brow at the tone in his voice. "...What?" His eyes darted back and forth between Hali and the man, when suddenly something sparked in him. After hearing, yet another, person introduce themselves, including the rude guy, Mikoshiba placed a firm hand on Satsuki's shoulder, giving a tight squeeze and sending a thumbs up. "So you're the one. You shouldn't bother people so much, pal. That's okay though, I'll let you off with a warning." And...now he's just gone plum stupid. Mikoshiba thinks that Satsuki is the one Senna brought the pepper spray for. He completely ignored the second remark made with a gentler tone. All that was on his mind was...well probably nothing.

[Koyne]

Shifting eyes between Satsuki and Seijuro, Makoto expression turned into an even more confused state after hearing the red haired stranger's next statement. He rubbed the back of his head, letting out a few 'uhm''s and 'uhh's while basically just staring at Seijuro with a questioning look on his face. The comment made.. Absolutely no sense to him, and therefor, wasn't sure what, and even if to say something, so Makoto decided to just watch Satsuki react to that.

Yoshi


Yoshi looked around as others joined around taking an interest in this guy. When he heard him say that Satsuki was the one that made Senna get the pepper spray out he was confused but also tried to hold in a small laugh. "Okay? Well, anyway. Where are you headed? Traveling? Passing through?" He looked back at Ioko and smiled. He turned back towards Seijuro, "Well we are a group of people that met up and traveling around the word together. We just came in from Tokyo and who knows where we are going from here." He paused and looked at everyone. "I guess that's why everyone gathered around." He added in a smile.


Senna


Senna saw everyone introduce themselves to the person who goes by Seijuro. She was still uneasy about the guy but listening to what Ioko said about hitting on and flirting, Still new to her and never really met anyone that outspoken in person before, she took a deep breath and sighed. "My name.. My name is Senna Hitomi." She bowed slightly and looked up at the man.

Seijuro continued to smile passive aggressively at Satsuki, his hand still gripping the other's shoulder. Seeing the weirded out expression of Makoto made Seijuro shoot him a reassuring smile. That's when Yoshi spoke up, questioning his travels. This lit a small spark in Seijuro, causing him to remove his hand from Satsuki's shoulder and turn towards the other with a wide grin upon hearing they were traveling around the world. "Really!? So am I! I want to see different swim tournaments in different countries!" This tall man...has the enthusiasm of a twelve year-old boy. Seeing Senna step out from behind Yoshi, Seijuro flinched lightly, before bowing as well in return to her's. "Aha! I'm Mikoshiba Seijuro! Nice to meet you Senna Hitomi!" Looking around, you could notice that not all of them were Japanese, which was pretty neat. "Ah..." Looking back at Satsuki, Seijuro laughed awkwardly and scratched the back of his head. "Y-you...are..." Drawing an imaginary circle around the group, "Too...?" Seijuro felt bad for the way he acted, and decided to wrap an arm around Satsuki's shoulder, patting the man's head in a rough motion. "Aha! My bad, my bad! I didn't know you guys knew each other! Senna was talking about how there was some strangers and stuff...something about hotel rooms and cute girls." Just excuse the 'cute girls' part...that's just Seijuro being Seijuro.

Archer had stormed up to his room, using his walking stick and scowl to express his anger and agitation. This was the third destination he had arrived at since leaving Miami and so far, his nightmare from those few months back when he'd made front page news for something other than surfing and the months that followed which has a disastrous end two months ago when he was finally forced to accept that a complete recovery was impossible. Three different locations and he was still haunted and reminded at each and every one. He slammed his stick against the ground as he entered the lift and leaned his back against the wall after pressing his floor number. "Am I never going to be able to get away?" He covered his eyes with his arm as he tilted his head up to the ceiling. "Why the hell did it have to be me..." There was a tinge of sadness in Archer's voice as the lift arrived at the top floor and the doors opened. He limped out of the lift, considerably calmer and softer as he made his way towards the room closest to the lift and unlocked it.


The high class furniture and beautiful designs screamed luxury and paradise at every turn. From the bathroom to the bedroom to the living room and the lounge. A slightly smaller penthouse was a way to describe it, millionaire's secret hideaway was another. Archer sighed as he held his came horizontally and tried to walk without it, lurching forward unsteadily with each step before falling into the floor. He clenched his fist as he raised his head, the walking stick having flown from his hand to in front of him just out of arm's reach. A single tear trickled down his cheek as he lay sprawled on the floor of his room between the living room and bedroom.

 

[Hobbesisalive]

Ioko watched the others and looked at her watch. She didn't want to freeze out here so she quickly grabbed Seijuro's hands with her own and looked him in the eye. "I am Ioko Takane." after that the girl let go and ran away towards the hotel. "Ill go to the Hotel already." she managed to yell as she leapt forward. Luckily for her the hotel was close by and she stumbled upon the front door in less then 10 minutes. The female stepped inside and let her eyes get used to the somewhat darker light. After that she searched for a man or woman that worked here. She had to use the bathroom and was kinda lost so she flew to the lift as she couldn't find a person that worked here. With her back pressed against the mirror that was displayed at the back of the lift, Ioko yawned and silently waited till the doors opened. Even before that she heard a faint thud and curiously she peeked from the corner of the lift dpor into the hallway. There lay a man on the ground before her feet. For a moment Ioko just stared at him, then she stepped over his body and looked at his face. "Where are the toilets sir?" she asked with a polite smile, figuring it wasn't her problem that he lay there. @Everyone @Xeyran


Satsuki blinked as Seijuro lay a hand on his shoulder and said...many confusing..things.. His mood wasn't getting better because of it and he shot a glare towards Yoshi, who seemed like he was enjoying it. Luckily Senna saved him out of the situation and Satsuki sighed, wanted to grab is backpack but was once again interrupted because of the strange man. He grumbled something and just got along with it. Maybe if he had been here in the afternoon he wouldn't be so grumpy, but right now it reallt didn't cheer him up or something. He just let it wander, follwing Ioko as she ran across the street. "Help." Satsuki silently whispered. Not to anyone in particular @NickOnTheReg @Suzumaki Arakai

Wooops! My bad, just pretend Ioko never approached him and went to the toilet instead

No problem. @Hobbesisalive

 

[Koyne]

The smile Seijuro gave Makoto just added onto his confusion, that guy was just so... random... it actually started giving him a headache. He rubbed his forehead once again, watching as the conversation comtinued until Ioko eventually ran off and towards the hotel, they were about to head at. What a weird day... The boy was about to follow Satsuki, who continued his way now as well, but came to a quick halt after his first few steps. He turned around, locking eyes with Seijuro again, before saying, "Uhmm, you're free to tag along if you want, like you've already heared, we are currently heading to our hotel." And with that, Makoto got back on track, quickly catching up with Satsuki. He shook his head slightly, letting out a brief chuckle. "That guy sure is unique."

Kyoto Station

Seijuro stood there with a dumbfounded expression as Ioko introduced herself before running off. This caused his cheeks to grow a gentle shade of pink, not from embarrassment or anything, but because she was cute. Seeing Satsuki follow after the girl, Seijuro turned to look at Makoto who began to speak, inviting him to tag along with them. A large smile was now plastered across the man's face as he turned to face Hali, taking her bags once more and motioning for them to go. "I'll come! I'll just get a room when we're at the hotel..." Mikoshiba has already been in Kyoto for about a week, but another few days never hurt anybody, right? Besides, now he's got people to travel with and keep him company. One of Hali's bags were thrown over Seijuro's shoulder, the trap being gripping tightly as his palm faced towards the sky, and if there was another bag, it would be held lazily in his other hand. "What made you decide on this trip?" His smile still remained...not once fading.

Hali just watched everyone speak silently. She realized that this red haired man, Seijuro, was quite the character. He was so random and had the spirit of a little kid. Hali was a little embarrassed when Satsuki came over, as his man had just been flirting with her. "You're not dating Satsuki. You don't even know if he likes you. So why do you care if someone else is flirting with you?" She thought to herself. Hali then saw everyone start to go to the hotel. "Uh, okay let's go." She said as Seijuro picked up her bags. She picked up the remaining luggage and started to follow him to the hotel. "Well, I really just love traveling. And I wanted to see all over the world!" Hali said, answering Seijuro's question. @Everyone

Yoshi


Yoshi watched as Ioko grabbed Seijuro's hand and a brief jealously came over him, he noticed she ran towards the hotel. "I..Ioko." he looked confused but sighed and ran after her. "I have to check in." he yelled. He chased her to the hotel and was gasping for air in the lobby. "Omg, I'm gonna die." he took in a deep breath. "Please.. kill me." Once he gathered his breath and his life back together, he walked up to the counter. "Hi, yes I believe I have two rooms on reserve under Yoshino." Yoshi then paid for the two rooms and got two sets of keys for each room." He looked around and waited for everyone. He mainly wanted to hand the key to Ioko. Yoshi took a seat in the lobby and sighed. "Where did she run to?" he asked himself. The hotel rooms were in the two sweets on the top floor of the hotel. "At least we have decent rooms." he said. @Hobbesisalive @BobbyW @Suzumaki Arakai @Spotine


Senna


Senna watched Ioko and then Yoshi run off. She also heard what Satsuki said and invited him along. A frown appeared on her face, how she wasn't happy with this decision. She still didn't like the vibe Seijuro gave off. It was mainly because she's not used to someone like that, with no real friends almost her whole life. She watched everyone start running towards the hotel, she didn't want to run. Senna picked up her bag and put her headphones in. She turned on LiSA and started listening to her music as she walked towards the hotel. It wasn't far and she was happy about that. She just wanted to shower.

Traveling To The Hotel

Mikoshiba remained by Hali's side as they walked, following Makoto so as to avoid getting lost. I mean, Hali might know where they're supposed to go, but Seijuro doesn't...so it's only natural. Looking down at the girl for a split second, "The world's a big place...I wonder if you'll really see it all." His eyes then returned to where he was walking. Bumping into someone would be a pain in the ass, so it's best to avoid that. As they walked down the road, Seijuro caught sight of a tourist shop...well, he thought it was a tourist shop. The man practically skid to a stop and held a thumbs up at Hali, "One second!" And with that, he disappeared through the doors for about five seconds before stepping back out with a depressed expression. Without stopping, Mikoshiba walked past Hali and sighed, "Let's go..." What was that all about? Oh well, we'll just call it a Seijuro thing. "Do you have any souvenirs from recent visits? Actually...where all have you been so far?" His smile had long since returned, and his attention was focused completely on the girl beside him, Hali of course.

@Spotine
​

 

[Spotine]

Hali nodded. "I hope so too." She said, smiling slightly. Needless to say, Hali was quite surprised when Seijuro suddenly ran into a shop that was along the side of the road. Hali stopped and looked at the store curiously. When Seijuro came out, she saw that he looked depressed. "What's wrong?" She started to ask, but within a few seconds he was cheerful again. "Weird." Hali thought to herself. "Souvenirs? Oh, none so far. I just started this trip last night, I was a little late. Everyone else had been in Tokyo for 3 days when I found them." Hali explained. "So I didn't get to spend much time there, because we left for Kyoto the next day. This is our second stop!" She said, smiling up at him.

Traveling To The Hotel

Seijuro listened to Hali speak, his eyes wandering around every now and then to take notice of some of the things he missed during his stay. A smile crossed his lips as he pointed towards the middle of his chest with his thumb, straightening his posture. "I start my trip not too long ago too! I'm from Ginoza Village, Okinawa so people laugh sometimes because of my accent! The first place I visited was...hm" Seijuro was now chewing the nail of the thumb used to point with, "I think it was Kagoshima...I didn't stay there long though, about a day or two. After that, I traveled to Hiroshima and stayed with my grandmother for a week. It was nice seeing her after so long. And well, the other places were really just me taking it easy, I want to visit the small places of Japan, as well as the bigger places. Kyoto is actually the first major city I've been to. I was about to head off to Nagoya today but..." The man slumped over, covering half of his face with a hand. "I wrote the six upside down and ended up arriving at the station at nine instead. I normally take a plan- Ah..." After realizing he was the only one talking, Seijuro shot both of his hands in the air before skidding to a stop and turning towards Hali. Slapping both of his hands to his side, the red-head bowed in apology, "Ah! My bad! I'm the only one talking!"

@Spotine

[NickOnTheReg]

Senna arrived at the hotel and saw Yoshi sitting there. She sighed and walked over and sat down across from him in the single person arm chair. "Oniichan, what are we doing?" She asked him as she took her headphones off. "Where is everyone?" She questioned as well. "Where we able to get the rooms?" She kept asking more and more questions like usual, not giving Yoshi a time to answer. "Halichan is walking with that Seijuro guy, they should be here soon." She said. "He's weird." She said bluntly.





Yoshi smiled at Senna who sat down. Before he could even get out a word she just started rolling questions out of her mouth one by one. He started laughing. "I'm waiting for everyone to get here so I can give keys, so yes I got the rooms with no problem. I don't know where anyone else is." He added as he took a breath. "Yeah he's an odd one but I don't think he means any harm, you don't have to be so scared around him." Yoshi said with a laugh. "To think you're both from Okinawa but never crossed paths. Or haven't seen anyone like him." He said laughing.

 

[Spotine]

Hali nodded and listened to Seijuro speak. She was honestly interested in what he had to say. When he suddenly ran in front of her, bowing and apologizing for talking to much, Hali looked surprised. "What? Oh no don't worry about it! I was actually interested in the story!" She said, smiling a little at his strange behavior. She looked up and saw the hotel. "Anyway, here we are." Hali opened the door and saw Senna and Yoshi in the lobby. "Hello!" She said cheerfully, going over to her friends. She waited for Seijuro to follow.

 

[NickOnTheReg]

Yoshi


Yoshi looked up from his phone once he heard a familiar voice. "Ah Hali! good you're here." he said with a smile. "Just waiting on the others." He continued to say. His look turned towards Seijuro, "So are you joining us?" he asked him while looking him over, trying to get a better read on the strange outspoken guy. "We usually sleep in tents but today I decided to get rooms for us, to sort of unwind and freshen up before we start the major travel part." @Spotine @Suzumaki Arakai

 

[Hobbesisalive]

Satsuki waited till Hali and Seijuro walked past him and Makoto, so they would be the last ones entering the hotel. During the little trip to there sleeping place, the male got his eyes constantly on Seijuro. "What is wrong with that guy...acting all goofy" he said while crossing both of his arms against his chest. Shishio rubbed his head when they entered the hotel lobby and finally shifted his gaze towards the room they where standing in, instead of the red haired boy. "Looks nice." the boy mumbled.


@Suzumaki Arakai @everyoneelse

 

[Koyne]

As they entered the hotel, Makoto let his gaze wander around his enviroment, analyzing his surroundings before eventually locking onto Yoshi and the others. He gave them a slight wave accompanied by a smile as he approached the four. "So, are our rooms ready?" Rubbing the back of his head, the boy then took another quick peek over his shoulder, looking at Satsuki. He seemed a little grumpy ever since they had encountered Seijuro. Now, that guy was indeed weird, but, well, his weirdness kinda had something charming to it. Shrugging off the thought, Makoto turned back towards Yoshi, awaiting an answer.
