"I-It's fine... Could you put those back in your hand for now? It doesn't really matter if I can see your hand since we're not actually playing..."
-Aichi realizes that this is definitely a learning experience for him as well. Hopefully he won't mess up teaching this to someone else later...-
"A-Anyway... You have your hand... If you don't like the cards you got you can reshuffle those cards into your deck and draw cards to replace them. You can only do that once though. It's a good idea to get at at least one of Grades 1, 2, and 3 in your hand."
Well, if you must know, someone dug up a crystal and used that crystal to bring something to life. I didn't get a good look at them, though.
Uh, right. Of course.
(He does what Aichi gas resquested, reshuffling the cards and managing to draw 2 Grade 1, 2 Grade 2s and a Grade 3 to put into his hand.)
(The device on the table starts blinking, however.)
"We all fail. We all make mistakes. That is what makes us human."Hmmm? (He looks at the blinking device, and his expression changes.) Uh oh.
(The device starts projecting a holographic image... of a girl?
She's crossed her arms and is looking rather annoyed at Leos.
How do you think I feel?
"We all fail. We all make mistakes. That is what makes us human."Kitchen
-Aichi looks at the device in surprise. It's not like he's never seen holograms before, but he's never seen them from a such a small device. It must be pretty advanced! Of course this was the guy that said something about a space station orbiting Jupiter, so he really shouldn't be too surprised.-
-Aichi stays quiet.-
What are you doing, Leos?
Hey, Sthesia. I was... uh, playing a card game. You know, to pass the—
You're supposed to be looking for clues about this place, Leos! To get you back on duty here?
(Boy, does she seem mad.)
Wait, family drama? I thought your kind were above all that.

-Aichi can't help but feel guilty about the reprimanding Leos is receiving. He decides to say something.-
"E-Excuse me, but... I-I'm sorry for troubling you both. Just... please don't be angry with Leos. It was my fault."
-He bows in apology to the hologram projection of the girl. He knows it's probably a bad idea to speak up, but he couldn't just say nothing. He needed to apologize. He didn't want Leos to get in trouble because of him.-
I can't help but think this is a terrible idea.

(Michael snaps to look in Kora's direction.) She did what?!
Hm? Who's this?
He's a friend, Sthesia. He was teaching me how to play this card game.
(Sthesia sighs while placing a hand on her forehead, registering Aichi's attempt to apologize.)
It's okay. We're just... really concerned about him back here.
Nah, it's just Anger Born of Worry

-Aichi stands back up and nods.-
"I understand... I can imagine that he has stuff he needs to do in your world."
-...Wait... Didn't Elliot say that time in worlds the people in The Room were from were usually frozen? It doesn't seem like Leos's world is frozen... What if it wasn't for Aichi's as well?!-

I can hazard a guess.
Hmm? Uhh, no, I'm fine! (Cue frantic hand-waving to dismiss Aichi's worrying, giving an awkward laugh or two) I'm fine, nothing to worry about, heheh!
(Leos looks confusedly between Aichi and Sthesia's holographic form.)

"W-Wait a second... You could have redrawn if you didn't like the cards and..."
-He seemed to be struggling to figure out how to explain the rules. He probably should have explained that you can only play Rear Guards that are of a Grade equal to or lower than the Vanguard, that you have to ride into the next Grade before calling Rear Guards, you want to keep some of the cards in your hand to guard with... and... pretty much everything really-
"W-Well... Y-You normally start a turn by riding into a Grade 1 if you have one and then you can call as many Rear Guards as you want..."
