Date: Throughout February
Location: Around Aifaran
Situation: Various
Warnings/Rating: None

A. Exploring

A new time, a new city. And Conan had a lot of work to do. Throughout the month he can be found in many places around Aifaran,
exploring the area and sticking his nose into everything he sees.

B: Justice: Party Politics

Conan hadn't been able to resist the invitation to this fundraising dinner. He really wanted to know who'd thought that inviting a kid as a special guest at a political event would be a good idea. When he'd originally received the invitation, he'd suspected to be some kind of political stunt. He hadn't expected them to be serious about it. As the speeches drag on, Conan watches the other people at the table and silently judges everyone.

C. Faith: Would you like some literature?

To begin with, Conan had listened with false politeness when he was approached by a pamphlet waving local. That quickly faded into barely concealed annoyance, as every attempt to extract himself from the conversation fails..


D. Soccer

Eventually, Conan located a promising park. It wasn't a real soccer field, of course. As far as he knew, that was a sport that didn't exist here. But it was more than enough space to get some practice in.

Comments

D.

[sanzulines]

Kid had come to the park for a small bit of space, taking a seat on a nearby bench. He's been getting headaches on and off since his arrival, and at best he can tell, it's due to his Soul Perception being in overdrive due to the number of different races in the city, something that he'd asked about. The boy with the soccer ball at least provides something of a distraction.

"At least that's a familiar sight."

"You have soccer where you're from?"

Conan wasn't surprised, exactly. It seemed like a lot of the dreamfolk here shared certain cultural similarities. If soccer was one, it wouldn't shock him.

"We do, yes," Kid nodded. "May I then also take it that you're from Earth - or at least a variant thereof - as well?"

[spoilsfun]

"That's right. At home, I lived in the Beika district of Tokyo."

He hadn't met anyone here yet that had known his home district, but a few people had recognized Tokyo.

[sanzulines]

Kid was one of those who recognized the city, but not the specifics. "I've only been to Japan a few times," he said apologetically. "It was on the other side of the world from me... I was born and raised in the United States."

[spoilsfun]

"Really? What part of the United States? My parents are working over there right now."

At least that was his cover story to explain why they were never around. In truth, he had actually spent a lot of vacations in the U.S. growing up. His family had a vacation home in Hawaii, and he'd spent time in California and New York.
