[Greetings, Discedo! How are you today? Hopefully you're doing better than Watanuki!

When the feed starts, it's obvious it's purely accidental. Watanuki holds the communicator in his hand as he walks randomly in one direction. He hadn't recognized where he was when he woke up, and sitting had proven to get him no where. So he had picked one direction and started walking. ]

--can't believe this!

[He's not even bothering to keep his voice down.]

I wake up in the middle of nowhere with nothing but a phone! There's no way I'm going to make it to school on time now!

[He makes an aggravated noise in the back of his throat.]

If that woman wanted me to do something for her, she could have just asked! She didn't need to just drop me here with no warning! Of all the inconsiderate...!

[Aaaand, just like that, the feed turns off again, just as accidentally as it started.]

[He begins to laugh.]

Monster! Monster! Monster!

[More giggling.]

[april_first]

Ah--no! That's not--

[He sighs, giving up.]

[gochuugoku]

[Xi Shi lifts her head to give China a motherly nuzzle, making the child giggle again. He tilts his head at Watanuki's expression, though.]

Uu?

[april_first]

[And Watanuki can do nothing but wave a hand. The kid really doesn't seem to be in danger. Even if he was, there wasn't anything he could do about it. He doesn't even know where the kid is.]

[gochuugoku]

???

[Blinking at him curiously now.]

[april_first]

[Because Watanuki was brought up to be unfailingly polite and there's really nothing else he can do about the situation, the next thing to do is introductions.

This kid barely seems able to understand English, so he points to himself, hoping to get across what he's saying.]

My name is Watanuki. It's nice to meet you!

[gochuugoku]

Watanuki...

[He smiles and also points his own finger at himself. How do the people here say his name in their language again...?]

Ch-China!

[april_first]

[Blink.

Blink blink.]

...What like the country?

[gochuugoku]

[He nods his head, still smiling.]

Yes!
