Characters: Nero and YOU
Setting: All over the tower
Format: Actionspam I suppose
Summary: Sometime after his arrival, and he's still not that happy about it.
Warnings: Nero being Nero, he'll pick a fight if provoked.



[Of course he has to do a little exploring after arriving here, it's only natural after all. He's still confused about this whole situation, but he's not one to really freak out about such a thing. No- he'll just keep his cool (for now) and explore what he can.

Nero can be found:

A: floor one, looking at the cafeteria and inspecting the food.

B: floor three, checking out the books at the library. Last time he was at such a place he was attacked by possessed armor, forgive him if he's a little wary.

C: floor four, a lounge huh? Well, Nero was never one to sit still- so this might not be his thing. But it's one of the stops on his journey.

D: Nero is headed towards one of the floors which contain monsters and the like. Stop him, join him, encourage him to keep going? Whatever your heart desires.]

[Sakuma's hiding in the library again.

Usually it's quiet since most of the time, people only pass through and those who do stay tend to be quiet so the bustling draws his attention. With the warning that girl gave him about monster possibly invading the lower levels as well making him cautious, he very slowly makes his way over to where the sound is coming from to make sure that nothing dangerous is here in case he needs to escape downstairs--

--only he fails at sneaking so he accidentally kicks one of the books that scatter the floor as he makes his way over.]

Shit.

[slamdunk]

[So sorry, he's used to things jumping up on him. As soon as he hears that book move across the floor even more, he's already drawing his gun, pointing it at the direction of the sound.

....But it looks like another person so....]

Damn, don't sneak up on me like that.

[and he's putting away his weapon.]

[kickspenguins]

[Seeing the gun makes him flinch. Even when the stranger puts the gun away, Sakuma is still a little wary of him so he hangs back.]

Sorry, I was afraid a monster got down here somehow.

[slamdunk]

Monsters...?

Like demons? They're here too?

[kickspenguins]

[He guesses demons can count as monsters. Sure.]

Yeah. They're usually confined to a specific level but a giant flying whale crashed into the Tower a couple days ago and set them loose.

[Ignoring how ridiculous what he just said sounds, Sakuma observes the other.]

You're new, aren't you.

[slamdunk]

[to specific levels huh...? He'll have to remember that. Oh and don't worry, one time Dante was swallowed by a giant whale... Nero doesn't know that though shhh.]

Is it that obvious? [that he's new and all.]

[kickspenguins]

Well, you didn't know about the monsters in the tower so it's not hard to guess that.

[No one stays ignorant of that for long here. Take him for example. He almost got eaten by something because he wandered off somewhere he shouldn't have.]

The tower is in a shittier state than usual so you should be careful.

[slamdunk]

[he just shrugs at his words.]

I can handle myself. [he does appreciate the concern though.]

[kickspenguins]

Oh, right. [What with the big gun and all.

Sakuma shuffles around in place a bit awkwardly since he's originally here because he wanted to hide away from people and now there's someone standing in front of him. It doesn't matter that he's a stranger.]

[slamdunk]

[...Nero is a loner too so uh- he just goes quiet for a while.

...

....Uh.]

I just came here to explore but- you like readin'?

[kickspenguins]

Not really. It's just a lot quieter here than the lower floors.

[He looks around idly for a bit. What is having a conversation??]

There's not really much to explore now after what happened.

[slamdunk]

...After what happened?

[intrigued.]

[kickspenguins]

I mentioned a giant whale crashing into the tower right? Yeah, it kind of smashed the most of the higher levels up.

[slamdunk]

And yet the tower seems to be okay now...?

Jeez, was there some repairmen runnin' around after that?

[kickspenguins]

I don't really know about that. Maybe. Then again, nothing here is really normal anyway.

[Can you sense his contempt for this place as he speaks?]

[slamdunk]

Yeah I kinda figured that from suddenly being taken from my home and waking up here.

[and he responds back with some attitude...]

[kickspenguins]

That's not even the worst part about this place.

[Rolls his one visible eye.]

[slamdunk]

Don't tell me, the people runnin' this place litter too.
