Characters: Romeo and you!
Setting: Cafeteria, Breakfast
Format: Whatever you like!
Summary: Romeo and Piccolo eat food
Warnings: None at the moment

Romeo poked at his food before bringing the spoon to his mouth and eating it quietly. He was taking a long time to eat, not because he didn't like the food but because it was obvious no one was going to take it from him if he didn't hurry. He was trying so very hard to keep his spirits up and for a few days it had worked, he had explored everywhere, he had done his job with enthusiasm even though it made him feel dizy and sick. But today it was harder, he missed his friends; his friends who were all dead if the letter he had gotten was true. He saw no reason for those who ran this tower to lie, they had them all trapped anyways.

At least if his friends were all dead then they were with Alfredo, Romeo had searched the tower the last few days and had not seen any of his friends or family, which meant that whoever had 'rescued' him hadn't rescued them as well, which wasn't fair at all.

Piccolo nudged him with his nose, startling Romeo out of his own thoughts. "You're right," he murmered dipping his finger in his oatmeal and letting Piccolo eat some. "I have to keep my spirits up!" He took a breath and punched the air with his fist. He looked around suddenly, sensing someone watching him.

Romeo smiled again and nodded, but then his smile faded and he looked sad, because it was sad that Shoutarou's cat hadn't been rescued as well, "Do you miss him?"

Shoutarou leans on an elbow, thinking. He does miss the cat, yeah. Mick was close to Philip, and since they let the cat stay in the agency, it was pretty much all of theirs to a degree.

"Yeah - though I miss everyone, really."

Romeo nodded his smile fading as well, "Me too," he sighed sadly and went back to poking at his porridge. "But at least if the world ended..." His voice caught a bit because it was a very scary thing to think about, "Then they will all be with Alfredo in heaven," he wished that he could see them again though.

Shoutarou bit back that thought. Even if he was gone, there were still two Riders in his world, and all those others...

"I don't want to believe it, that that that happened. It couldn't have. How could so many worlds be destroyed at once? It seems impossible..."

Romeo blinked, he did not see any other reason why they would be brought here and the letter had said that the world had been destroyed. He blinked at the man, "Lots of worlds? Is everyone from different worlds?" He thought about it and realised it made sense, after all Molly had told him about dinosaurs and they definitly didn't exist in Romeo's world.

"I'm assuming so, based on what I've seen. People from different time periods, not having the same geography or countries as some others..."

He adjusts his hat a bit. "All I know is that the information session in a few days will be very interesting."

"Oh," Romeo nodded, that sounded confusing he had always thought there was just one world. "I hope that they explain what's going on properly," Romeo was quiet as he poked at his porridge again.

"Where do you come from sir?"

Shoutarou had his doubts about how much information that whoever they would talk to would be willing to hand out, but being cynical right now probably wouldn't help the kid's spirits, so he just nods. "As do I."

"I come from a city called Fuuto, in Japan. Yourself?"

"Wow Japan is a long way away from where I come from!" He said remembering the globe that Doctor Casella had shown him, "I come from a village called Sonogno in the Alps, it's also near Milano in Italy!"

Cue a momentary eye-widening. "Yeah, that is far off."

Romeo smiled, "Is...was it nice in Japan?" His smile faded a little as he remembered that the world had been destroyed.

"Yeah... Fuuto was one of the smaller cities, rather nice place. Always breezy..." Shoutarou looks rather nostalgic for a moment.

Romeo smiled and nodded, "It sounds nice..." He fell silent poking at his porridge again trying to remain cheary.

Shoutarou nods. "It is."

He closes his notebook, then adjusts his hat before giving Romeo a confident look - that look he gives his clients that are distraught, the look that says that he will make their problems right. "And I plan on going back. And helping everyone else get back where they came from."

Romeo blinked in confusion looking up from his porridge, "But what if the world really is destroyed, theres nothing to go back to!"

Shoutarou sighs. "I certainly hope that's not the case, but if it is... I'd rather know first-hand than be stuck at the whims of whoever pulled us here."

Romeo was silent for a while before he nodded slowly. "I guess its better to know for sure..."
