Once she has changed out of the white suit into her regular formal affair, Prussia no longer stands out among the rest of the arrivals, save for the shock of white hair she has yet to take a proper brushing to. She checks the holster under her jacket one more time, where the weapon she's arrived with nestles comfortably.

While she waits, back against the wall and arms folded over her chest she studies what marks all of them in this unknown place; the collars that inexplicably vary in color from one person to another.

Germany makes his way to the first floor, impatiently making his way through the tower. He can't quite believe that he's rushing to meet a female version of his brother, but it won't be the oddest thing to happen to him within the past twenty four hours.

He reaches the first floor and looks around, soon spotting the head of ruffled white hair. He starts walking over to her, not allowing any sort of hesitance to hinder him.

"Hallo," he greets somewhat awkwardly, unable to keep from staring. "Have I kept you waiting long?"

"I don't have a watch, so I couldn't tell." there's a hint of amusement to her voice that is not critical, but she doesn't hide the fact that she is studying him thoroughly. The facial features, harsher and more angular, look about right, and the fitness and health of his body matches what she expects a masculine version of her little sister to be.

She shoves a hand in his direction for a handshake, perhaps to break the staring spell.

The attempt at humour is lost on him, but he firmly returns her handshake. It's then he notes the scar on her face, a trait she doesn't share with his brother. He could remember Prussia coming home beat up plenty of times when he was younger, but never with a scar quite like her's.

"It's good to meet you. In person, that is." He says politely, letting go of her hand. "Shall we?" He gestures for them to move on. They have ground to cover and plenty time to talk on the way.

A firm, strong hand. She likes, but doesn't comment on it. In more frivolous times she's prone to jokes and banter, but they will have an ample amount of time for light heartened later.

"What do you have on you?" the first floor is fairly crowded, and she not sure whether there are spies among the confused faces.

"A knife and pistol," he replies after a moment of consideration, dropping his voice in case someone nearby could hear them. "And you?"

He assumes she also got a weapon included with her belongings. She wasn't the first person he had seen wandering around with a weapon here.

"The same," it is perhaps unwise to take the only two weapons she has in her truck, but she isn't going to gamble with her luck. She leads the way, not looking back and trusting Germany to make the best of their limited time.

"Don't you find it odd that we haven't run into any natives of this place?" he muses aloud, but just loud enough for him to hear, "Unless some of them are pretending to be transplanted into this place, as well."

"Sehr gut."

He follows barely a step behind her, keeping a watchful eye on the people nearby and their surroundings.

"It is odd," he responds in agreement. "I would treat them with suspicion."

"Would you kill?" the question comes just as they arrive at the infirmary of the second floor, with its pristine sheets and ample supplies. It is odd to leave a wealth of medical supplies in a haven, so to speak, with no one to watch over them.

It prompts Prussia to look up, as if searching for any possible surveillance. Her voice isn't hushed, though.

"And not in self defense, either."
