[ well it's the evening when c-ta goes to the boutique, almost as if expecting things to change like cinderella going to the ball... and he's legitimately surprised to see how right his gut feeling was.
though he's never been big on overly fancy clothes (he's got an image to uphold as a laid back dude!), but he sifts through them curiously...until he sees tenn, that is.
he gives tenn an easy smile, without none of the anxiety from before. ]
Oh, didn't think I'd see anyone here. Are you looking for something to change into, too?
[ Tenn, on the other hand, seems a little on-edge. It's clear he's still not over what happened earlier, and he can't help but eye C-ta a little warily before the other boy addresses him.
At his question, he nods. ]
I am. It doesn't sound like we're leaving anytime soon.
It is. I told someone else this, though: Everyone here is from different places. It's impossible to truly comprehend and account for everyone's experiences.
What we may consider to be trivial might be life-changing for someone else.
[ He's scared, yeah. He won't admit it, but he's pretty terrified. C-ta seems relatively okay, but who knows. They're all strangers, after all. ]
So when you said fighting you would be boring, is it because you don't know how to?
[ c-ta’s smile fades, as he gives tenn a glance that’s laced with worry. ]
I mean, I’m not defenseless, I think. I could probably pull a couple punches or kicks but... [ he rubs the back of his head. ] Who knows just what kind of abilities the others might have? We know we’re from other worlds, but we don’t know what they can or can’t do. That lack of knowledge is dangerous.
Yeah. That's what I mean. I don't have combat experience myself, either.
[ Well...Tenn opened an elevator with his bare hands once but like. Anime logic, comedic timing, etc. ]
I don't think we'll get an honest answer out of everyone if we asked, either. Given our situation, I don't think anyone will really want to reveal too much about themselves. Even talking to you now is a risk, but I thought we might be in the same boat.
[ said as "shiita". he smiles warmly, before continuing. ]
I also might be imposing on you but...there's someone else I'd like to add to our little "alliance". I think he probably needs protection as much as us two. Suga Koutarou...did you meet him yesterday?

[ he puts the clothes back, breathing out a sigh. ]
To think they want us to kill for a wish, too... that's way over the top, isn't it?

That’s exactly it.

[ c-ta gives tenn a wry smile. ]
But maybe there’s still power in numbers. If we’re able to stick together, then... maybe it’ll be more difficult for another person to target us.
no subject
[ ...Hm. There's a small pause before he speaks again. ]
A good place to start might be to formally introduce ourselves, though. I'm Kujo Tenn.

no subject
[ There's a small smile on his face. It's apparent that Tenn approves of Suga and the little alliance that he and C-ta have going on. ]
On that note, I can also vouch for Nanase Riku. He's from the same world as me; he can be trusted.
no subject
Oh! I met him, too, at the bakery. I think we got along pretty well, too-- is he a friend of yours, then, Tenn-san?
no subject
[ Tenn... Well, he's glad Riku left a good impression, at least. ]
I'll let him know that we talked. I think he'd be happy to know that you're on our side. Hopefully Suga's really who we think he is, too.
no subject
[ tenn don't be tsun...or something. either way, c-ta will be archiving that for later ]
I don't think that he could lie his way out of a paper bag, honestly. But we'll see.
