i dunno. i just figure i should check with asa and dera at least. before running around asking anyone and everyone about our parents. just in case. i know asa has already been looking for them since they disappeared. but that doesn't mean we're giving up.
no that's not what i meant. i figure you can tell the time, just. if you have time. i don't know how busy you are on your end when you might be available to help me out with this.
alright. i dunno how far you are compared to us but i'l let you know once i check with dera.
[Which he does, later that evening. Arranging to meet at a nearby convenience store as an easy enough landmark to go off of. He's sure from there the other might know somewhere to go for this practice, hopefully. Yuru waits, leaning against the wall and chatting to Left and Right in between mouthfuls of a snack while waiting for the other to arrive.]
[As long as he can get Yuru to locate and give him the street name or another more unique landmark, Bakugou can get the address of the convenience store and plan accordingly. Means he might be late since he had to take the train and it wasn't the most advanced notice. But luckily he can get other things arranged while he's traveling.
It'll be about ten minutes after the meeting time, and a text telling he'll be late due to the above, before Bakugou approaches the guy outside the store. He sees him talking to... uh... yeah. Close enough to figure that's Yuru.]
[Why would someone's tooth be blue? Something they ate? He isn't sure on that, with the bluetooth, still figuring out technology since there wasn't really much of that sort of thing back in the village. Yuru glances when he sees someone approaching, assuming it is Bakugou that had arranged to meet him here. Left and Right glance over, eyeing the other blond and standing a little closer to Yuru.]
Like your phone, but attached to your ear and smaller.
[He's going to have to relate a number of things to that phone and contrast it with more feudal tools to make the connection for Yuru. This guy must've been completely floored when he got a phone and learned of just the tip of what it could do. Bakugou's hands stay in his pockets as he approaches the other guy, not wanting to send his two guard spirits into aggression mode if they happen to have issue with new people approaching. That'd be a pain in the ass.]
Oh? So bluetooth also lets you talk to people not with you right here?
[Honestly the phone is some magic device or something as far as Yuru is concerned. Instant portraits. Talking to people far away and hearing their voice. It is quicker than smoke signals at least. Even if that was what he was raised to do in communicating over a distance. He doesn't figure that this is such a thing but a lot of stuff is making it kind of easy to impress him given what he has been raised being aware of. Left and Right stick close to Yuru but don't otherwise do anything as Bakugou approaches. The other blond hasn't shown any aggression towards Yuru and seems to want to help their Master, so. It's fine for now.]
It's just. So many things are so amazing down the mountain.
Yeah. You just don't see it as easily as the phone.
[Giving the illusion you're talking to yourself if people can't see the ear the bluetooth is on. A lot of people have linked technology with magic, as many magical spells and abilities were once dreams that translated into goals that ultimately fed into the development of different devices and talents. Though there's definitely some lingering elements of people thinking the old ways shouldn't be forgotten, in case the all important electricity goes out...
Bakugou eyes the two creatures on either side of Yuru, wondering just how many people could see them. It's not like Bakugou's ever considered himself "spiritually aware" or much less cared about things of the sort. He only goes to temples to do the new year's thing because it's traditional. Doesn't believe much in the idea of a temple spirit granting him luck on the battlefield. Still... look at what he's seeing right now.
Kind of hard to deny something staring him in the face.]
No shit. Your village is probably 250 years "behind" the modern world.
[Yuru doesn't even really realize. Of course it is obvious things down below the mountain had progressed beyond what he was used to. He simply follows along with Bakugou, oblivious to how the other is noting Left and Right. He's more used to the situation by now. So it is easier for him to simply roll with it. But then of course it might be a little different for him, he's far more used to the village and that sort of upbringing and mindset in comparison to what Bakugou had experienced.]
[Most people don't realize the passage of time if they're the ones inside the passing. Bakugou tilts his head in gesture to get them moving, leaving the previous building behind. It's about a half an hour's walk to reach the nearby firing range. He'd already checked out the location Yuru wanted to meet at and anything nearby. Definitely not a large one, but it'd serve well enough for a first timer.]
So only a few people can see those beasts, right? Not just any random guy.
[That's what Yuru said before, but actually seeing them makes it... harder to believe others can't.]
