When: Day 145, afternoon
What: Look, some new people!

[There's a person in gray walking around the new buildings. He seems to be scanning the area around the two buildings, getting his bearings perhaps? Though he looks pretty calm and collected.

Bother?]

It does seem that way. Unless a lot of people are leading us astray.

Oh, no, it's not too hard at all! I figured it out pretty fast... even without an experienced team you should do all right, and there's lots of people to help you. You can ask me, if it's anything I can help with, but it's probably better to ask someone who's been here longer.

And if you're lucky you guys will have a few days to find your feet before there's another game.

It sounds like games happen pretty often. It seems we'll be find out of them, but for the games...

[Well, lack of people, lack of experience...]

Mm, I guess they're every couple of days or so. I've only really seen one...

It sounds like they happen often enough that it might be difficult for injuries.

Mm... Yeah, injuries happen. I don't think they're always necessary, I think there's ways to find another solution that doesn't involve quite so much violence.

But don't worry about that yet, just think about getting yourself and your teammates settled.

I agree. It's better to avoid causing harm if you don't have too. [Of course, it's fine when you have to.]

I thought it'd be easier to get settled by knowing as much as I could.

There's a lot to know, though, when you don't have anything to start with. But that's not a bad idea.

Hopefully when we're done with today, we'll all know enough each to know everything important.

Yeah, you've got a lot of people stopping by to fill you in.

Is there more than one person on your partner team, or is that guy alone over there right now?

There's three on each of our teams so far.

Oh, that's good, then, I was a little worried for him. You'll each have six, eventually, when enough people get sent here.

Even if he was alone, we would have been there for him. We are supposed to be partners.

*nods*

Your own team is most important, but it's also important to take care of your partner.

I just think it would be very lonely to have a dorm to yourself...

It does seem it'd be too big for just one person.

Yeah. And with no memories, it's even more lonely.

...well, at least he won't be.

*nod* Yeah. It's good.

Yeah.

[Looks at the hand. Okay, he has to ask.]

Why is your hand...covered in metal? Is metal?

Is metal. It's mechanical up to my shoulder. I don't remember what happened yet, but as far as I can figure out I... lost my arm somehow. And got this to replace it.

[Nods.] Before you came here then.

Well...it could be handy, at least. [Pauses and frowns.] ...no pun intended.

*laughs a little* Could be!

Yeah, before I came here. A while ago, I think... I've gotten a memory back, but I had it there too, and from the way I didn't think about it there, I'd probably had it a long time.

It's probably got a better grip than normal hands. Can't loosen with sweat or anything and it's a lot harder to damage.

So at least your body should be used to it.

*looks at it* Well, it's harder to damage... but it's not as coordinated. It's a little hard to do really fine movements with it, or hold on to really small things. I can't feel anything, either, so I think it's just being used to it that I know how hard to grab things without breaking them.
