Breezy Place (Survivor Emi)
-So they haven't had a single customer since yesterday...-
-...Well, Emi's going to be a customer, so that's good at least!-
-And yeah, she definitely understand the idea of there being a 'grump' in the group.-
-Although she does look a tiny bit sheepish once that's said.-
"Did you guys come from the dimensional crossroads too?"
-...She can't help but feel horrible about all of it... So many people got hurt, killed, and so many things got left behind...-
-She wasn't particularly attached to the location since she hadn't been there long, but she can definitely imagine many people were hurt by its destruction...-
-...Snap out of it, Emi! You need to see if they saw Aichi!-
"He's a little taller than me and he has blue hair."
-Oh yeah, and...-
"...He carries around a crowbar too. He's got it with him everywhere he goes..."
-...He's really changed thanks to what happened back home...-
-He had to fight the zombies so often...-
-...Don't linger on it, Emi... He's still alive, and you're here. Not back home.-
-She looks through the menu and finally selects something simple and healthy, but fulfilling.-
Outskirts To The Streets
Except if you're a soldier of fortune like myself, of course. Pay for my own campaigns... although I'm really the only one in my 'company' so I guess I'm just hired muscle.
Still, uh, this is really my first time meeting someone as... big as you. How'd you get so tall?
The Breezy Place
Sounds like an Aichi! But yeah, we came from the dimensional crossroads.
I didn't!~
But we haven't seen someone like him in our store, or across the street from us.
Honestly, given how recent the event was, I'd be surprised if people knew where others were immediately. Everyone settles into their patterns of course, limiting where they could be... but we don't know such patterns yet.

"It's thanks to my Father that I am granted such a physique as my own. He created me and my brothers; the Primarchs, to lead his Legions across the galaxy in our Crusade. To each of us he blessed an aspect of himself, but to all he granted the power needed to lead his armies into battle."

-They know Aichi?!-
-Or, well... one of the many Aichis?-
"You know him?"
-Ah, but they haven't seen him...-
-...Still, it's a good point that it'd be a tad unrealistic for everyone to know where everybody is...-
"I've been worried about him... He told me to go ahead without him and that he'd catch up, but then he never showed up!"
-It's just...-
"...I don't know what happened to him. I know he got out of there, but..."
-...He's been so out of it since he saved her from those zombies... She can't even imagine how he's handling this...-

Park (Reborn Aichi)
-...Wait...-
"O-Oh, um... Those are chicken nuggets..."
-Aichi saw how so many different people were unaware of what so many things were back in the Room.-
-He's a little worried about speaking up about it though. What if they already know and he's being rude by pointing out the obvious...?-
The Streets
-Cappro thought to himself, "Oh so he's a military trust-fund kid. That explains it."-
Huh, neat. And I'm guessing all the other Primarchs are as big as you aren't they-?
The Breezy Place
Well I knew an Aichi! He had an eyepatch though, not a crowbar. So... we hope you'll find him soon! Hey, maybe he'll come to our cafe sometime?
-Laurel sighs a little, but doesn't say anything-
-as Tori brings a nice cup of tea, and a healthy lunch to Emi's table- A Caesar salad, and green tea. Hope you enjoy!~

-How does he explain chicken nuggets to someone...?-
"I-It's the way they're cooked..."
-OK, if there's one thing that does make him nervous, it's talking to people. He's still a shy and awkward boy even if he weirdly seems calm about a bunch of other things.-

Breezy Place (Survivor Emi)
-Ah, definitely not her Aichi then...-
-...-
-...What could have happened to him for him to have an eye patch...?-
-Honestly, knowing her brother he was probably clumsy and got himself hurt (In a way she technically isn't wrong since 108 botched the mission and got injured as a result)...-
-Who knows? Maybe he'll come by...-
"I hope so! He's probably wandering around lost..."
-She doesn't sound the most confident in him...-
-...Although perhaps some of it is just her trying to act like nothing's wrong, and that Aichi's not potentially dead right now...-
-Just wandering around the city wondering where the heck he is is a more comforting mental image...-
-Her meal is placed before her, and it snaps her out of her thoughts.-
"Ah, thank you!"
-All right...-
"Thank you for the food!"
-She doe her 'itadekimasu', and gets to eating it.-
The Streets
-Cappro thinks further to himself "They even act like spoiled children, holy shit. I'm glad this guy's not Dorn or that Perturbed Guy. Either one of those two sound like they'd go all 'rebellious general' at any moment..."-
Huh, what are those two like then? And uh, given your title. I'm guess you're the favourite, with the highest rank?
The Breezy Place
Yep! Just gotta hold out hope and all that~
-Laurel finishes stock, and leans against the counter- Mmm. If you know anything else about how he got out, then that might help you out. Like if he was wounded during a fight, he'll probably be at the hospital.
Yeah, yeah! Y'know, it's all about the clues! Like any good mystery...

-After taking a bite, she has to admit...-
"This is delicious!"
-She might have to come here again!-
-She supposes Brie is right... Nothing to do except hope...-
-Then Laurel talks about how he escaped...-
"I'm not sure... He told me to go ahead because he needed to take care of—"
-...WAIT.-
-He didn't... There's no way he was stupid enough to...-
"H-He stayed behind to fight!"
-That's why he stayed behind! He was actually going to try to fight those creatures!-
-IS HE OUT OF HIS MIND?!-
-Oh man... Now she's even MORE worried! She has to check the hospital!-
The Breezy Place
Then... it's possible that he got injured. And is at the hospital.
After you have that unforgettable luncheon, I'd suggest heading over there. See how he's doing.
Yep, yep!~ And I'm glad you're liking the food, it's prepared by our resident... everything expert, Laurel!
This place would fall apart without me, because I did the research into this role...
-Tori just grins a little- Well don't worry, Laurel. I'll pick up some of the burden soon!

-Thankfully Emi's getting a good way through the meal. Apparently she was very hungry.-
"Y-Yeah... Thank you for all of the help!"
-...Although...-
"I don't know why Aichi lied to me like that..."
-It was clear that he wasn't going to be following her soon, and not to mention that he was definitely beating around the bush about the imminent destruction of the Room.-
-She ended up hearing it from hearsay rather than him.-
-It's infuriating that her brother refused to tell her, and instead just wanted her to do what he said without any context.-
-It wasn't the time to call him out on it when he told her to escape, but she knew full well that that was why he wanted her to get going.-

Park (Reborn Aichi)
"How did they cook...?"
-Something like in ancient Japan?-
Horus waited to respond, giving a moment of thoughtful contemplation to the matter.
"Dorn is stalwart. He has his particular sense of duty and has done it well. I have seen the fortresses his Imperial Fists build in the wake of their campaigns and I know that nothing could break through them. He is straightforward and plain to the rest of us and I do not see him mince words or hide his thoughts. Perturabo is very much the same. He is as invested in his duties as Dorn, but they are too similar. Where Dorn builds to the sky, Perturabo flattens to dust. I would say he is vain and wanting for glory like Sanguinius, Beloved Sanguinius, or the recognition that Fulgrim and the Emperor's Children have obtained in their own deeds, but that would do him some disservice. Both he and Dorn are stubborn and it causes friction between them. As for my title, it was bestowed to my by the Emperor himself. I am certain as well that Gulliman is slighted by the decision but I would never hear it from him myself. His sense of pride in his regimentation and detail wouldn't allow him to bend over backwards and voice a disappointment like that. However, we both face forward towards the future. He and I both hope for a time when we might retire our armour for the last time and join our Father in celebration of the Imperium, whole and immortal. I am simply not foolish enough to believe that time will come. First and after all, I am The Warmaster."

◊ young man who looks like he's been crying a whole, whole hell of a lot steps out of the lobby, pushing a wheelchair.)
(A far-less scrawny young man sits in the wheelchair, kind of slumped over himself, but still vaguely conscious. Although his eyes are hidden, it kinda looks like he's been crying a lot too, and his abdomen is all wrapped up in a rather sloppy makeshift gauze and tape bandaging.)
...C'mon, let's—... we'll get something to eat, okay...? Maybe hamburgers... You— you like those, don't you, Brother...?
...Franz...
...Y-yeah... I'm here... it's— it's okay...
(Don't look now, fellas, but uhhh...)

... Before I stick my foot in my mouth for advice, what is Aichi to you?
Oh, and we don't know your name! We like to keep a track of faces around here to tailor our service!
That's a new policy-?
Yes, I enacted it just now!~
The Streets
-nods along to the speech, "Sounds like Perturbed is the one to go rebel... same with this gully-man guy"-
Sounds like quite the sticky situation between all of you. Such varied personalities, no wonder some of you experience friction, huh.
Glad I don't have a family like that, honestly.

"At the end of the day we are all brothers. We are crafted for war, and we may have our differences, but in the end that bond holds stronger than any dissatisfaction we may feels. It would be unbecoming of us to let them get in our way."
[forum cryptid: it/it's]The Breezy Place (Survivor Emi)
-Huh? What Aichi is to her?-
"He's my brother. I've been looking out for him since I got to that place."
-Honestly, she's thankful they didn't just assume he was her boyfriend or something else awkward.-
-It would not be the first time that happened.-
-She starts standing up, and then she's asked about her name.-
-Well, maybe Emi will start being a regular here!-
"I'm Emi Sendou. What are your names?"

Park (Reborn Aichi)
-Aichi thought he saw movement out of the corner of his eye, and looks back towards the pond/lake/whatever it is.-
"...?!"
-What is that...?!-
-Still, the boy seems dumbfounded, but not overly scared.-
"T-Tamostu..."
-There's a snout in the water!-

"Well as it is, friend. I am unfortunately bereft of any form of payment. I am certain you can imagine nuances as such are not usually part of a warrior's day-to-day concerns."
Sejanus followed the two quietly, trailing behind.
