Good afternoon. [ is it afternoon? perhaps.

To the video, a young man (he looks like a boy, even though he is an adult, kaneki suffers from "baby face syndrome", for sure) shows up; he smiles and then bows his head a little ]

I'm Ken Kaneki, I have just arrived. [ a small pause follows ] Or have been saved, I suppose. I'm still trying to fully understand what is going on, there is a lot to take. [ he smiles, but it's obvious how nervous he is ]

I was told there is magic and you can learn how to do it. Is magic really that simple in this place...? [ honestly, magic was just a fiction where kaneki is from, so this is certainly VERY new ] And there is also... kizuna? Or the two are the same... [ something like that? It IS confusing ] I'm sorry, this is all so strange.

I heard there are side effects, though. [ Kaneki is worried about that in particular, in fact ]

[It's perfectly valid! Katsuki's already brittle patience snaps and he ends up screaming in retaliation.]

LET'S HEAR YOUR BRILLIANT THEORY, KAGAMI!

[anthropophagite]

[ wow, loud ]

It's Kaneki.


And I don't have a theory, I simply believe what I have been told. [ a pause, as kaneki scratches his chin a little ] There are no quirks in my world, thus I don't see why I'd be part of an hallucination like that. I'm certain the same goes for everyone else from other worlds.

[hot_handed]

I don't remember the names of morons who buy into this garbage.

I don't have time for stupid discussions. [He holds up a palm to set off some explosions that burst into the air, leaving embers and ashes scattering around him.] If you don't believe me, fine. Just stay outta my way.

[anthropophagite]

[ really, now... ]

Would you prefer to go back to the time loops?

[hot_handed]

It ain't a time loop. More like a recurring dream.

[anthropophagite]

That certainly didn't feel like a dream.

[hot_handed]

[...No, it didn't.

He still feels the phantom pains of where he was impaled, over and over-]

What, so they're gonna punish me if I don't cooperate?

[anthropophagite]

I don't know about that, I only just arrived. [ like he did. So Kaneki doesn't know enough about anything. But he isn't quick to jump into something nefarious either, he'd rather believe they were saved than kidnapped ]

But this is their world, after all...

[hot_handed]

Basically you don't know shit either! [Katsuki scoffs derisively and scowls. Their world?]

Is it their world? Just looks like they're copying us! This ain't Japan!

[anthropophagite]

It's where they live, doesn't that mean it is their world? Their version, just like we have ours.

[hot_handed]

My Japan is still the best.

[Even if admittedly there are some cool things about this place. It reminds him of a video game or show.]

[anthropophagite]

I... guess? Anyone would usually feel like that. [ well. Probably. Kaneki isn't entirely sure what to think about this place, but he isn't going to claim it's better than his, all things considered ]

[hot_handed]

It's not a feeling, it's a fact! We have some shitty scientists, but we haven't broken the whole multiverse

[anthropophagite]

Well, that's true. But I am not going to compare worlds like that. [ because kaneki is NICE ]

[hot_handed]

Guess it is a waste of time when we could be blowing shit up.

[anthropophagite]

Why would you want to blow things up?
