[Nothing like a rude awakening at 2:30 in the morning, right? Well, you're in for a treat fellow refugees. It seems like one just flew over the cuckoos nest. Not that you can tell initially. At first this just looks like some inconsiderate kid with rings under his eyes and messy hair, breathing down the camera lens a little too up close and personal.]

Yo. If we haven't met yet, hello. I'm Yosuke. But...but if you're new, you should count to three and then stop listening. Okay? One, two...three. Alright, go away. It's for your own good.

[For emphasis, he clicks the lamp beside him off, and the video goes dark. Nothing to see here, apparently.]

Listen. Guys. I'm curious what people do here for fun. Because uh-look. I've tried sleeping, and training, and then I tried going outside. And talking to the people in the market, and you know. Looking for animals. And I found some, but they were really creepy and mutated. You know? So it's impossible to forget this place is so...

[The light comes back on with a soft click. The phone-roll-up is on the bed table now. Yosuke smiles down at it tightly, and shrugs. Then something thumps in the other room and he jumps at least a foot, gesturing wildly and knocking the device off the table. Someone get the kid some decaf.

He hangs over the side of the bed and gazes at the mobile, his image now fractured like a kaleidoscope, and gives a rather put-upon sigh for a guy who was just trying so hard to be personable.]

Damn it. I'm cracked...

[That earns a snort.]

Right. Name's Cagalli.

[inthejunk]

Hanamura Yo...ah. I already said.

[feisty]

Yeah, you did. I'm gonna go grab my jacket, and I'll be out shortly.

Action? Idk.

[inthejunk]

I'll be waiting!

[And he is. He's a quick guy, and only lives one floor down in the first place. It takes him no time at all to get there.]

yup! /o/

[feisty]

[Cagalli doesn't take long, and she's out in the hallway when he arrives.]

You look worse in person.

[inthejunk]

Hello to you, too.

[Yosuke grumbles at that greeting, and tries again to smoothe his hair down. The clothes, he's decided, are hopelessly wrinkled.]

Is there anywhere in particular you've been meaning to check out?

[feisty]

Don't bother primping, no one's gonna see you. [She grins at him, show it's okay to be messy.]

Yeah, but not at three in the morning. Let's try walking around near the Hold.

[inthejunk]

[The grin relaxes him a bit at least, and he grins back after a moment.]

Sure, why not. It's probably the least disruptive thing.

[feisty]

Let's go.

[Shrugging on her jacket, the blonde takes the lead, heading towards the stairs instead of the elevator.]

[inthejunk]

[Yosuke follows, first on her heels and then keeping pace at her side, easily matching his stride to hers without even thinking about it. Following people takes a certain skill set, and he's got it in spades.]

So...been here long?

[feisty]

Since the middle of December. What about you?

[Down the stairs they go! Sure, the elevator would be way faster, but Cagalli's definitely one to put in a little extra effort where she can.]

[inthejunk]

Right around Christmas.
