"Good morning, Mayfield!  I was a little confused before since I'd just arrived, but I thought I'd make a proper introduction now that I know what's going on!  My name's Hachibe Maeda, age 15, from Japan.  Looks like I'll be living here for a while, so it's nice to meet you all!"

[After getting a little of the down-low on Mayfield from his new not!mom Arcueid, Hachibe's decided to go out exploring the town he's apparently going to be calling home for the forseeable future.  He's privately pretty upset that he won't be going back to see his friends from Sakashitamon Academy anytime soon (not to mention he'll be missing out on those lovely parts), but he's a pretty optimistic guy, so he's pushed all of those concerns to the side for the moment in an effort to make the best of his current situation.  He'll basically just be wandering all over town getting his bearings, so feel free to bump into him just about anywhere.  There's a good chance he'll be walking down every street by the end of the day anyway.]

((OOC: Let me know in your comment whether you're responding to his phone post or bumping into him on the street.))

<sub>[We can play it out if you'd like! She's kind of fascinated, because she's been stuck at the academy since the time of the current principal's grandfather, so being out in an actual town is really interesting!

...Minus the part where she's alive again. Yeah, it's kind of a recurring joke that she enjoys being a ghost.]</sub>

[Walks along downtown, holding her hand if he'll let her since she looks like she's probably a little bit younger.]

"Let's see... what kind of shops do they have around here..."

_{[Her age is somewhat ambiguous, yes, especially in her ending.]}

I wonder if they sell alchemy ingredients here...

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

Alchemy ingredients? Like what?

[no-bullying.livejournal.com]

Like...nicro cloth, and...cyprus copper...things like that!

Though I need a workshop to do any alchemy...

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

Can you turn lead into gold and stuff like that?

[no-bullying.livejournal.com]

Uhm...I don't remember if lead was an ingredient or not for making gold...

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

So alchemy... is that like magic, then? I heard some people can do that kinda stuff here. My mom here is a vampire, even!

You mix ingredients together according to a recipe, in a cauldron! Sometimes, if you substitute an item for another, you might even get something new.

...Oh! And your Mana helps you, too, if you've made a pact with one!

Wow... this place is pretty amazing, bringing people here with so many different skills and powers and stuff. It's just like an anime or a video game!

[no-bullying.livejournal.com]

What's an "anime"...? Or a "video game"?

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

Hmm... I'm guessing you're not from a modern world, huh? Do you know what TV is?

[no-bullying.livejournal.com]

Nope!

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

Hmm... well, I'll show you that too, then!
