[ (ooc: omg no i'm sorry this is so late! i lost this tag in my inbox cries. i hope life lets up for you soon ;; irl is happening on my end as well, so don't worry, i am always happy to backtag this thread as long as you are!)
Seeing all of the rainwater on Nirei makes Riku frown a bit, and he feels like he should offer his jacket, but there'd really be no use in doing that. It's completely drenched, just like Nirei himself is, so if anything, offering it would likely make matters worse. He simply frowns a little, but when the other boy smiles, Riku's quick to match it. It's a nice smile, he thinks. ]
Contact info? That's a good idea. Um, let me see...
[ He pulls out his phone, too - at least they both have that. And like Nirei, Riku's phone is fully functional. ... Except for not having any data, which is not entirely surprising given their already very strange circumstances but unnerving all the same. ]
Oh, it doesn't look like it does. It could be the bad weather? [ Which is a very optimistic take on the situation, really. ] I think it'd still be good to exchange information, though, in case it comes back.
[ Riku holds out his phone for Nirei to enter his information. He probably has quite a few notifications visible, especially on his social media applications, and his home screen is a selfie of him and some other guys in pretty fancy outfits. Almost like they're dressed to perform somewhere or something... ]
I'm really glad to have met someone else so soon, honestly. Waking up here was pretty strange, and I'd be feeling a lot worse if not for you.
ooc: It's okay, that happens to everyone! Lord knows I've been a victim of the "marks notif as read and forgets to reply for several weeks" curse lol. Life is still eeeeh but thank you for that, I hope it isn't too bad on your end! Also likewise!!
Yeah, it's probably the weather... [ He's trying to be optimistic about it too with his light tone of voice, but there's still a slight nervous edge to his words. Riku saying he's glad to have Nirei there visibly cheers him up, however, and he sounds closer to his usual happy self as he enters his contact details. ] I feel the same way, Riku-san! I'm not sure I'd know what to do if I was all alone here...
[ He glosses over the sheer number of notifications. It feels rude to look at them too much, and it's not like his phone is any better. Between all the groupchats he has to be in as a vice-captain in his class, just the ones from his messaging app take up an entire row. He does take a moment to look at Riku's homescreen though, curious about all the other guys in the picture. ]
And...there, done. Are you in your school's drama club or something, Riku-san? [ He figures Riku isn't that much older than him. Maybe two years at most. ] The costumes in your picture are really cool!
[ Nirei holds up his phone next. The homescreen features an old sign at the entrance of a rough looking town. It's covered in bold stickers, the kind graffiti artists leave eveywhere. A peek of the wall behind it shows it's more of the same, but with actual tags and art too.
The sign reads "Anyone past this point who causes pain, who brings destruction, who holds evil in their heart, will be purged by Bofurin without exception."
It's intimidating, a declaration of war. It's the kind of sign one would expect to see at the entrance of a vigilante gang's territory, like this short, sweet-looking boy is part of one. ]
