(...tho his wandering gaze leads him to the faceplanted Andy... uh... oh dear...)
(Aigal, the many-eyed hound
◊, is now sniffing her.)

-...'Hive'...?-
"Ah... No, it isn't..."
-He's rather confused... and that blue blood isn't doing him any favors either...-
-Just stay calm, Aichi...-
-Honestly he's not really sure what this place is... It feels almost... familiar...?-
-...-
"I'm not sure what this place is either..."
-Really makes him nervous...-
-...'Aigal'...? Just keeps reminding him more of Wingal...-
"Just be careful, all right?"
-He doesn't want him to get involved with the outsiders he has to deal with...-
...oo-ooh...
(Slow nod, still entranced by the COOOOL HOORNS...)
...thank yoou, sir...! Ai-Ai'm glad my lusus is with me, at least... Ai'm, uh... pretty weak foor a coobaltblooood, but Aigal is very stroong, and—and he takes gooood care oof me...
(Gently pets the pup, those many eyelids closing as his hand runs along his back.)

-Aichi doesn't exactly understand a bit of what he's talking about ('Cobaltblood'...? Is it like a blueblood)
"You're welcome."
-He can't help but smile. Sounds like Aigal's a really good friend to him.-
"It's good to have friends you can rely on like that..."
-...He... feels like he hasn't had anyone to rely on in a long time...-
-...Why? It hasn't been that long... He was just with his friends a little while ago, wasn't he...?-
-Honestly, this whole thing is so confusing... It all feels... off...-
-He's starting to get more nervous about the staring...-
...
(silence, as Rider can sense Saber's mana slowly elevating, yet remaining steady like a river. This is clearly some Oriental meditation technique to shut out mental interference)
(Saber remains silent, until...)
...Hwew. Finally my hangover's improving. Or is it just a placebo...?
(...oh... THAT'S what she's doing.)
i-it really is...
(Smiles back, though it's kind of a sad 'n tired smile...)
...Ai—Ai shoould proobably let yoou get back too, uh... what yoou were dooing... soorry foor, um, boothering yoou, this—... Ai just think adults laike yoou are... very stroong and cooool...
(Gives a final smile of admiration and continues inside.)
>.(<) BRIGHT toooo bright oow mai ais...

Main Room (Survivor Aichi)
-Aichi first notices the dog-like thing.-
-It... looks like Wingal for some reason...?-
-...No, that's not what he should be focusing on.-
-He sees that he's accidentally intimidated the other Aichi (?).-
-He's wary, but at the same time being intimidated like that would probably mean that he's not a threat in the slightest.-
"Sorry... I didn't mean to scare you. Are you all right?"
-Still, he's uneasy. It's probably very apparent.-
-Thankfully G has been pumping him full of calmness to help keep him level.-
—
Forest (Number 108, "Aichi")
-He's close enough to hear all of this and...-
-...'Aichi'. His eyes narrow. That's the name his handler gave him...-
-He's not certain why his handler thinks he needs one. He was simply Number 108. It was his designation, but for some reason his handler decided he should also be referred to as 'Aichi'.-
-He tends to be called Number 108 by everyone, but his handler, when he's alone with them, calls him 'Aichi'.-
-It still perplexes him, but apparently it's his name...-
-He's wary now. He's watching and listening closely.-
-Perhaps the cat boy's name is also Aichi... He's biding his time to find out the proper information.-
