I'm pretty sure that "disturbing the peace" didn't mean that I'm supposed to be sent out of town to an infamous prison.

... Anyway, what's with the animals? It seems I missed the announcement.

That doesn't surprise me. A lot of people seem to end up here by bizarre twists of fate -- aka the Warden's meddling.

Great. Another meddler.

[starcharted]

Hm? Is there someone else you're referring to?

[facepalms]

Unfortunately, yes.

[starcharted]

Someone here?

[facepalms]

Nope.

[starcharted]

Being vague, are we?

[facepalms]

I'd rather not talk about it.

[starcharted]

Well, that's fine. We've all got those sort of things.

[facepalms]

I suppose you're right.

[starcharted]

I don't say things that aren't true.

I didn't ask your name yet, did I? I'm John.

[facepalms]

It's Kyon.

[starcharted]

Good to meet you, Kyon. Has anyone ever told you that's a very cool name? Because it is.

[facepalms]

It's more or less a nickname, really.

[starcharted]

Oh! Short for your actual name, maybe? In any case I still like it.

[facepalms]

Yeah. Thanks, I suppose.

You're very welcome!

Say, do you know who you're rooming with yet?

[facepalms]

No idea.
