Searching around for some more information would likely be his best course of action at the moment. Granted, going to a place with books wouldn't usually be his first option. It's something though....he would've of thought of going with Aotsuki... He shakes his head at the idea, instead lifting up his hand to guide his finger through the myriad of book titles on their spines to find anything that may catch his attention. It's surprising how many do look familiar to those he's glanced at the Last Defense Academy's library, but many are definitely foreign to him.

His hand retracts quick though when his peripheral vision seems to catch another figure next to him.

"Oh, uhm sorry. Did you need to find something over here?"

Something that's been hard for Takumi to wrap his head around is the fact that there isn't just humans in this city. It feels like something right out of game now that he thinks more about it. Not like he's much of a gamer to begin with, but having a friend like Darumi made him more familiarized with them, even if her taste in genres isn't his cup of tea.

But the lack of Sirei, or any of the SDU members around this place gives him a clearer sense that perhaps this isn't like one of the battle simulations he uses for training. Clearly, people actually live here. It's nothing like the TRC, but it's nothing like the destroyed remains of the surface either.

His mind is so focused on those passing by, he nearly gets knocked over by the someone heading opposite his direction.

"Ah, sorry, I didn't mean to...I just got distracted looking around."

The familiar sounds of the city seems to lull him in a false sense of security initially. The bustle of people passing by, the vehicles that seem to come and go. Almost as if he's back home at the Tokyo Residential Complex.

And yet...

It's the sounds of the trains that bring him back to reality. A noise new to him that from the life he originally had before. It's something he's never really heard outside of television, not that the giant hole in the center of the city he woke up to earlier wasn't an obvious factor into things. It's what grounds him to realizing that no, he's not back home, and that indeed he's no longer at the academy.

He needed some more information. Something, someone is bound to give him answers, even for as much as he wouldn't like to just approach strangers so suddenly, as if that went well last time.

Someone indeed does catch his attention amidst the bustling crowds as he maneuvers his way around.

"Hey, sorry for the bother, but do you got a minute?"

[sunliteve]

Hiyori was always prepared to be spoken to on the street; it was only expected that he'd capture attention, for better or worse. Between stable city residents and new arrivals, there was never a boring day. There was something rather plain about the one that decided to stop him in this instance, but the dazed, pleading sort of look in his eyes was familiar in several ways.

Today, Hiyori chose the more appealing reason for such an expression to respond to.

"It's not a bother at all! Fufu, I always have a minute to spare for a fan," he said with a welcoming grin, a hand poised over his own chest. "Are you looking for an autograph? I hope you have merchandise for me to sign; I simply love to see it. ♪"

He even had a pen on him, but he'd wait to see if the adoring stranger spared him the effort by offering one.

[oceansclarity]

He can barely process the words said to him. It's not like he knows who this stranger even is. Is he someone known here? What kind of luck to have to end up asking someone like of all people? Though perhaps it'd be best to try to clear that misunderstanding before it further ravels itself.

"N-No no! What I mean is, I'm uh...new here? I'd appreciate if I could get some information about this place."

Real smooth, Takumi...

The Takumi Show

[oceansclarity]

{{ You know, it's kinda funny coming back to Tumblr RP after like 7yrs and coming along with a fixation strong enough to bring myself back into it. I'll try my best to get back into things.

Anyways, here's a starter call for anyone interested on the new Kodaka protag here who's totally not panicking at the moment. Dunno how many I'll be accepting so we'll see!

[oceansclarity]

The past...right, right, perhaps if he's able to go back to the beginning, then he can prevent [REDACTED] from ruining it all again. That maybe they can all survive the 100 days. That maybe no one has to die. He can't let anything happen to her again.

It should've been simple enough, hijacking the body of your past self on the second day of this dreaded war. Stopping Sirei from being destroyed was the first thing on the list and he was able to accomplish that! He was able to stop them from setting off the events all over again.

And yet, when he had a choice to make...

Where was he again?

This is...no, could his ability cause something like this? That shouldn't be possible!

No...no no no, this definitely wasn't Last Defense Academy anymore.
