Ah-- good afternoon, I guess? Hey. [The video feed graces you with the face of a very confused brunette, though he doesn't look too worried at finding himself in an unfamiliar location. His hair and clothes also look a bit on the wet side, but he's managed to secure a towel courtesy of a nice shop owner nearby. He takes a moment to gather his thoughts before continuing.]

I think I took a wrong turn somehow... unless this is one of Kaito-nii's weird jokes. Ha, ha. Good one, Sir. [That deadpan tone is 100% sincere. Y e p.]

It looks like a nice place here, but the timing's a bit inconvenient and all, you know? So if anyone can let me know if either of these people are here-- [here he holds up this incredibly accurate work of art, drawn messily on a napkin] I'll be glad to get out of your hair and come back for a visit later.

[A beat, followed by a shrug, then--]
... for the record, the one on the right does have a body. Pencil just broke.

[superbeast]

[Yelling? Oh please. His entire life involved being surrounded by yelling and death threats.]

[G R I N S.]

But you're a son of the house, right? Little Nightray. Younger Nightray just doesn't have the same ring to it.

[forhishonor]

[ internally SCREAMING. well, externally too. ]

I have brothers! [ older ones ] And a sister too! [ an older one. ]

[superbeast]

How does that change anything?

[forhishonor]

[ it....doesn't ]

As a scion of the Nightray household, I deserve the same respect as they do!

[superbeast]

Then you're going to have to use your words and be specific in what you want me to call you, Little Nightray.

[forhishonor]

I have a name! It's Elliot Nightray!

[superbeast]

That's a pretty good name. Nice to meet you, Elliot Nightray. I'm Akira.

[forhishonor]

[ ...pretty good? IT'S THE BEST NAME. ]

Akira.....just Akira?

[ where is your last name, dude? ]

[superbeast]

[he's like Madonna, don't need any stinkin' last name.]

Akira Udou, but just Akira is fine.

[forhishonor]

[ damn you classy people!! ]

'Just Akira.' [ PSHH ] Last names are important! They define who you are, and how people see you.

[superbeast]

Maybe if you're a fancy noble, I guess. Us normal people don't find it to be such a big deal.
