Behind the girl appearing on the screen is the minimalist decor characteristic of the apartment for the newcomers to Hinoto-Ri. The girl herself is shirtless, covered in what look like black tattoos with green glowing borders. Her expression is neutral enough, but one can see in her golden eyes she's far from being happy.

"Okay. Now what?"

Shura thinks for a minute about what the boy said. It's true that Futomimi was no weakling... and Dante might be able to hold the fort. Probably. But mostly there was the fact that Futomimi was a charismatic leader, the one who inspired her to swear to defend them and to destroy the very source of injustice in the world, the woman who had taught Shura to have guts, in a way. Yes. She had guts too. Things would be all right, even in the supposedly unlikely case that time advanced while she was gone.

"... I guess I could help out..."

"Now we're talkin', girl!!!" The audio feed actually crackles due to the volume of Gunha's shouting; he's clearly very impressed by this girl.

"We should be friends. Then you wont be alone here, at least. We should have a little fight at some point, too."

Shura chuckles a little at the guy's enthusiasm and self-confidence. Had he been a demon, she would have recruited him for sure "All right. If we're gonna be friends, then you can call me Shura. I look forward to fighting you eventually."

[allgutsblazing]

"And you can call me Gunha, or Sogiita, or whatever you want."

He nods his head dramatically. Can you feel the social link, Shura? Can you feel it?

"So, what are you gonna do now? Any ideas?"

THOU ARE I AM THOU STICK YOUR HAND INTO THE TV STAR SOCIAL LINK ACTIVATED. GUNHA WILL NOW TEACH YOU ALL ABOUT GUTS.

"All right. Gunha. Since it looks like I'm staying, and since my sleep was rudely interrupted by my being brought here, I think I'll get some well-deserved sleep and see what tomorrow brings my way. And you?"

[allgutsblazing]

"I'll go and see if anyone needs my help; or I'll hit the streets and start patrolling the area, stuff like that." Gunha doesn't really have many priorities in life right now other than ~training his guts~ so he's not too thrown off but this whole thing "I might take a quick run around and see if anyone from Academy City has wound up here. They'll probably be glad to see a level 5 around."

or terrified. whatever. they have a bad rep

"Say, where are you staying right now, missy?"

[demifemme]

"That's a great idea." The people here needed strong people like Gunha around, if all she had heard was true.

"I live in Pisces. 9-03."

[allgutsblazing]

"Well I have no idea where that is, but if I ever have some time then I'll swing by and visit you. I'm in Libra something or other eight."

If Gunha had any sense then he would be somewhat wary of getting into trouble with the law likle he had back home. Turns out punching a delinquent with your special move ten times in a row isn't quite self defense in their eyes. But the guy literally asked for it, so what can you do?

"You'd be fine with that, right?"

[demifemme]

Well okay, maybe his moves need a little push in the right direction but still!

"That's all right by me! Just, y'know, knock first an' all."
