Setting: everywhere and anywhere hallways in the late afternoon
Format: Up to you, good sir or madam, and I'll follow your lead!

Warnings: n/a


Huh, this feels like dejavu.

Hibiki's out in the hallways, Typholosion close behind him--they would take up the entire hallway if they walked side-by-side and Hibiki isn't one to be rude! His agenda for today is pretty much..empty. Maybe to find someone to show him around a little or even do something, anything, with him! He would've asked his roommates, but he already asked them a bunch of questions. (He thinks he'll wait a while before doing that again.) Ah, this tower's pretty big...he hopes he can remember how to get back to his room.

He has a smile on his face, as usual, humming an unnamed tune. Now that he thinks about it, he hasn't really seen much since he arrived. Only his room and the cafeteria, if he recalls correctly. Only the tasteless oatmeal stands out, as sad as that sounds. Hibiki wonders what kind of people and things there are here to do, there's only so much time walking around kills! He's still a growing boy, being bored all the time will do him no good so won't someone please help him?

He stops abruptly in the middle of the hallway and sighs--poor kid--but oops Typhlosion didn't realize and walks right into him, sending both of them to the ground.

At least nothing was set on fire. This time.

Jay is typically a point a to point b person, with his major stops during the day being to the cafeteria, the library, and occasionally somewhere he can keep his fighting skills in peak condition. Due to that attitude, he didn't usually give a crap about who he passed in the hallway, outside of a glance and sometimes a noncommittal noise.

But that's for humans. The towering, flaming badger actually gave him serious pause, stopping mid-step and outright gawking.

If it was a monster, it was a horribly ineffective one- so odds were it was a pet or companion to the kid it smashed in to. That alone was enough to make him homesick- but he wasn't about to dwell on that.

"You should pay more attention to your surroundings. You never know when you could be killed."

Instead, let's dwell on 'you have a pet that could get hurt so you should stop dawdling because i am an animal person tsun tsun'.

Hibiki was about to scold his Typhlosion and push him off when a voice caught his attention. Seriously, of all things people had to walk in on him on, it was this. Not a great first impression, but it's memorable, right? Back to what was said to him, Hibiki doesn't get it at first, but once the bit of dialogue sinks in, he's absolutely confused.

"Huh?"

Killed? Hibiki hasn't been in the tower for that long to know what goes on, let alone realize there are things that can end his life. The thought sends shivers down his spine as he gets up, Typhlosion already standing behind him.

"People get...people get killed?"

Well, there goes his peppy mood.

"Repeatedly. Violently. You come back, of course, but-"

Jay pointed (rude) at Typhlosion.

"-he may not."

Jay isn't a very kind welcome wagon, but he for sure will do his best to drive that point home if it means others will be less reckless.

"He doesn't have a collar like we do, so if anything happens to him he may die for good. You'd be wise to not take that risk." A pause, and Jay dropped his arm and shrugged. "I'm only telling you for your own benefit."
