Aaand. Sort of? I'm kind of used to people hating me for their own problems, remember? But yeah. You seem good at getting other folks to talk about themselves but you aren't into sharing much yourself, Akira.
We have that in common, you know. Being judged for things beyond our control.
[That may be another reason why the powers that be designated them as pairs, but who knows? In any case... talking about himself. Ah. Akira doesn't even know where to begin.
Scooting to one side of the bed, he pats the opposing side. C'mere, old man. It's awkward having this conversation with one of them sitting and the other standing.]
Ask me whatever you want. I can't promise I'll answer anything too personal, but I'll try.
Nah, I'm not going to ask anything weird or anything. Just, I dunno, how are things for you where you're from? Do you have family? Friends? Are you going to school? Do you... do magic-y stuff there, too, or...?
[He hopes his honest answer doesn't make Bruno regret asking...]
I'm from Japan. Lots of friends, good grades, talking cat.
[Don't worry about the talking cat. Totally normal.]
I haven't seen my folks in over a year, but they're doing well as far as I know. I was about to go back home when I got pulled into this place, actually. Hopefully my folks don't think I've run off to commit another crime.
[ Oddly enough, Bruno accepts the talking cat as normal. His nephew talks to animals, too, so why wouldn't it be? What does get a bit of confusion, however, is the comment about Akira's parents. ]

Wait, what? Why would they ever think that?
