[asarock]

Uhh... hello?

[Terra's voice is a little quiet. After a pause just long enough to be awkward, he clears his throat.]

I'm... not sure what I should be saying here. They told me I would meet other... [Another pause, where he struggles with the word "fictionals".] ... people like me. I guess I should introduce myself? I don't think I'm doing a very good job here.

[Another nervous throat-clearing.]

My name is Terra, and I--.. [He hesitates. He's not supposed to talk too much about what he is or where he's from. Those are the rules, back home, and even if those rules don't apply now, he can't bring himself to break them.]

... I have no idea what I'm doing.

[The voice feed ends a little abruptly.]

[Terra glances over his shoulder at Wally's door, and then back at Riku.]

Yeah. I don't want to disturb my roommate.

[He offers a smile.]

Besides, I haven't seen much of the town yet.

We can go get ice cream.

[Even if it's not a thing Riku does, enough of the other people they knew did it, so it seemed like a good foot to start off on.]

It's enough of a walk that you should be familiar afterward.

[asarock]

Sounds like a plan.

[He slips out of the door, closes it behind him, and fumbles with his pockets to make sure he has the key to the place and his phone.]

Lead the way.

[They make it out of the apartment building—which isn't difficult, really—before Riku chooses to speak again. He doesn't want to pester Terra with questions, and he doesn't want to force him to deal with everything that's happened, but he knows it will happen sooner or later.

The temptation to tell him the edited version, the version with all the good stuff, is wrong, but he doesn't.]

What do you remember last? Before you got here.

[There's a beat, as he realizes that Terra might not know how much he knows.]

And don't worry, I know a lot already.
