-Gene heads into the video arcade-
-But let's take our eyes off Gene for a time-
-And turn our attention to a nearby alleyway...-
-In this alleyway, a young man sits slumped over against the wall-
-Clad in armor, a longsword at his waist, and hair a striking red, he's a walking - well, lying - anachronism in this mundane cityscape-
-This young man is Adol Christin, and it is here, in this dark, dirty, garbage-laden alley, where he begins another grand adventure....-
Oh. Yeah, uh... That's not gonna do you any good, really.
-Gets a peek at the punchline and snickers under his breath-
-Then puts the paper down-

-Snickers at a joke-
-and then he was suddenly greeted-
-Jolts a little in place, scrunching his paper up a bit with a surprised face-
-Quickly puts on his Professional Adult Face and looks up at Max-
