[Room 01-12]
[He had been reading the letter. Well, to be exact, reading and re-reading it. Were it not for the fact that he was attuned to Weird Shits™, he might've had a worse freakout compared to his current silent reaction. Those who were in his room when would notice that the first thing he did after his sleep paralysis disappeared was to check the trunk he was provided with. Or he could've conversed with you, but either ways that was how he got to reading his letter.]

...This, isn't a joke, is it...?

[Unfortunately, you are now saddled with the task of explaining things to him, or don't. It's all up to you.]

[Dorm Floors]
[That mess in his room over and done with, Shirou now takes to exploring the tower, or at least, the area he could reach without getting lost. Which is why he's now around the dorm area, looking apprehensive at everything around him and still having a confused look on his face. If you happen to run into him here, don't be surprised if he starts asking questions at you. Or...]

...Oh, er, sorry, I wasn't looking back there.

[He might've just bumped into you.]

[Floor 1]
[Like any other new residents, Shirou was forced to eat that... thing everyone dreads eating the first time around. Though, he's done with it surprisingly quick as after finishing it, the first thing he does is to hit the kitchen. Those around the area would find him coming out later with whatever meal that could be cooked with this week's ingredients, and him eating it. While he doesn't grumble, you can definitely hear him saying something like-]

At the very least they could've given us something edible to start us off.

{Want to meet him somewhere else? Just throw me a floor number and scenario and we're good to go!]

Floor 1

[evokingfool]

[Minato's just so happen to be near enough to hear Shirou's words. He pause while carrying a tray of food, glancing over to see the other man.]

...They could, but maybe they don't want to.

[steelminded]

Guess that's a bit too much to ask from them, huh?

[He didn't meant to be heard, but now that's the case now... well, yeah.]

[evokingfool]

The admins are usually very busy, but you can try giving them a note in their suggestion box.

[It's Zo's month right now, so maybe they would listen.

...But the other admins might interfere.]

[steelminded]

...Huh, I didn't know this place has suggestion boxes. But I guess I'll take a look then.

[evokingfool]

I didn't know at first until someone told me.

[Yep.]

I'm Minato Arisato. Did you just arrive?

[steelminded]

It was a bit too obvious, isn't it? Yeah, I'm new here.

[...welp.]

Shirou Emiya.

[evokingfool]

It is. We only eat the oatmeal once before we can have other food.

[Considering the timing...yep.]

It's nice to meet you, Emiya-san.

[steelminded]

[...oh, a Japanese, huh? Might as well return the favor.]

Same here, Arisato-san, but I don't think this is exactly a nice place to meet, isn't it?

[evokingfool]

[With people from all kinds of worlds arriving here, it's interesting to see a fair amount of Japanese people.]

It's one of the possible places to meet. But there are better meeting places on he other floors.

[steelminded]

Huh, that so? Guess there's more reason to check this place out then.

[...though he has a feeling most of the floors will be the worst meeting place ever.]

[evokingfool]

I suggest eating enough food. Some of the floors have a lot of things in them...and can be pretty dangerous.

[No joke, man.]

[steelminded]

Not the first time I've heard that warning, but I guess this place really is that dangerous, huh...

[man, talk about hospitality.]

[evokingfool]

[He nods.]

It's pretty normal to die by accident, or otherwise forced to die. But fortunately, death isn't permanent here.

[Surprise?]

[steelminded]

...It isn't?

[so people doesn't die when they're killed????]

[evokingfool]

It isn't. We'd just wake up in a new body.

[people doesn't die when they're killed, man]

[steelminded]

You make it sound as if getting a new body is as easy as that.

[yeah he's still a bit skeptical right now.]

[evokingfool]

Generally speaking, yes. They would take our dead bodies and give us a new one to use.

[Does Minato sound like he's bullshitting you.]

[steelminded]

[...he's still skeptical about a lot of things, but well. The guy's pretty earnest about it.]

I guess I'll take your words for it, Arisato-san.

[evokingfool]

[Minato rarely joke about things. Just wait until he's comfortable enough with someone as a friend.

Minato nods.]

...Still, I recommend avoiding death unless the situation made it impossible.

[steelminded]

I'll try.

[He's reckless, but then again he also knows that dying will just cause disasters so—]

[evokingfool]

[Yep. Plus, people here would get even more worried so.

Minato nods to acknowledge Shirou's words, before there's a brief pause. Right, they're just standing and chatting while holding their food.]

...How about we sit down and eat?

[steelminded]

O-oh, yeah, sure. After you, Arisato-san.

[Boy, Minato, it'd help if you at least emote a bit more.]

[evokingfool]

[Oh, Minato can emote. When he have a reason to, like being around good friends.

Minato leads Shirou to the nearest available table, placing his tray down and sitting down.]

[steelminded]

[going to just sit down opposite him yeah.]

...So, how long have you been stuck here, by the way?

[evokingfool]

[Minato paused to think. Hm, it's November right now, so.]

Almost two years about now.

[Give or take a couple of weeks.]
