Memories are blurred... A late intro!

[trainwrecking]

Who: Yuzuru Otonashi & OPEN to everyone!
Where: Aquarius -- not that he knows where he is, gosh.
Summary: Hi, Hinoto-ri! ... Otonashi's body hurts and what is this.
Warnings: Blood, injuries... and maybe swearing? Just to be safe on that last one.
__

Waking up in a new, strange location and being fed information in the form of an figurative text wall is not new to Otonashi. The only word that really sticks with him, of course, is Persona. What that word encompasses, what it actually means is lost on him right now, and the confusion is enough to make him bristle with frustration.

The first thing you might notice about him is the torn up uniform. Then maybe the blood, from a distance, or the hobble in his steps and the near-stumbling: he's wounded. Gunshot wounds are evident. Up close, panic is visible on his face.

[ a ] If you are wandering around the Aquarius region where he finds himself, you might face a confused redheaded teenager flagging you down. He might even be more brash than usual; he doesn't handle confusion and change too well.

-or-

[ b ] Maybe he has given up on moving for the time being. Instead, he's trying to catch his breath and get by with makeshift bandages, made with love from the remainder of his uniform. At least he seems to know what he's doing..?

(ooc: I'm pretty late to the party as usual, so I hope an intro post is okay!)

"Misato is fine." She doesn't exactly mind people calling her by her first name here, but if this boy is from Japan as well, he would understand the strangeness of being referred to by one's given name right from the start. "And what should I call you?"

As she talks, she begins walking slowly in the direction of the nearest tram station. If he follows, she'll increase her speed to a normal pace - they really ought to get him indoors.

He nods. A lot of the girls he knew immediately introduced themselves on a solely first-name basis, so he figured it was polite to ask. "Ahh... I, uh... Otonashi is fine." Even in this new place, he doesn't recall his given name.

Dutifully, he follows, staying consistently behind her and occasionally stumbling. His stride is imperfect, with good reason, but he manages to not fall too far behind. "So... ah. Do I have to... pay for my ID?"

"No. Your starting expenses are paid for, and you will receive a stipend so that you can live here for a month to settle in. But after that point, you will probably need to get a job to support yourself." She rattles off the information calmly, clearly quite used to this sort of thing.

"That's thoughtful, but a little strange..." He forces a sheepish smile. "I don't remember the real world being so forgiving." Then again, he doesn't really remember anything. Otonashi shakes his head and looks around as he follows, not entirely sure what City Hall looks like.

"So, you must have... been here a long time now?" Given how she talks, anyway.

"I haven't been here very long compared to some, but it's been a few months now. It seems that after getting so many people like us, they've had time to put a system in place so that we don't need to worry about shelter and food from the start."

As they walk, a tram station comes into view, and she holds a hand out rather like a tour guide. "That is one of the tram stations. We'll be using this to get to the City Hall. There are a couple that don't, but most of the tram lines will take you to the Leo Ward, where the government buildings are located."
