Hey. I’m not into public introductions, it feels like AA or something. Name’s Rudolf Ushiromiya, just got a few questions here for the rest of you.

Anyone know how exactly they decide where you go? It’s like a horoscope, right? Personalities and all that. So what’s the formula, if you want specifics, it’d be Baldr. If you don’t like how they judged you, who do you talk to about getting a switch? I don’t like the idea of somebody just assuming who I am.

Oh yeah, and what kind of jobs are up for grabs, or businesses that might be needed. This suite doesn’t really suit my tastes. …And I guess I’m gonna have to buy cigarettes.

[her first instinct is to troll really really hard - trolling any male Ushiromiya is always a worthwhile enterprise! But then she remembers that he's actually now her father-in-law, whether he may realize it or not, and that she should probably be nice.

Ahh, screw it. Trolling is more fun]

Well, now! If it isn't one of Kinzo's wayward children!

You're quite a ways away from Rokkenjima, aren't you?

[Oh yes.]

Yeah, of course. A little shy but, nothing wrong with that, it sounds cute.

I'm not sure about that. It could be a trick for all we know.

I guess we'll have to wait and see.

[This is... so uncomfortable...

She's reminded of how someone else told her the same exact thing and it skeeves her out even more-

... Wait. Ushiromiya... could it be?!]

Yeah, see, that's just the thing, what've I got to offer to a bunch of kids, I can't even get my own son to talk to me.

...Hey wait, did you say Ange's older than you? She's six. Battler would have to be almost as old as me! ...I'd be nearly as old as my old man!

[She'll speak again some few minutes later... for once, she doesn't feel bad for making him wait.]

... E-excuse me... d-do you perhaps know o-of someone named... B-Battler?

I have been wondering this myself.

It seems as if they assign based on a set of immutable traits a personality or mind has. Though that is up to their discretion and is subject to error. I for one do not understand why I've been placed into my own House.

Perhaps it is experimental or the sorting serves an unseen purpose as of yet.

[Don't do that?! Ah, wait, no, of course you would have to do it, he'll be just like Battler after all...

And upon seeing that face, he certainly does. Rather than replying for a moment, he stares, utterly confused because, well, it's clearly the Beatrice from the portrait, but hadn't Rosa just said she saw her die about twenty years ago? Then again...he's a little more apt to believe she could be a witch at this point]

Aah, and how 'bout you? I'm not there all the time, it's just like a little business trip.

[And he listens to everything carefully. Even though Will asked Rudolf to speak about Beatrice, he already knows all of this.

It never hurts to double check information though. You'll never know what'll come up. Better safe than sorry.

Since Beatrice exists they're talking about a world where Lion doesn't. He can deduct that much.

That means this Rudolf must be from the first through six games.]

The legend about Beatrice haunting the forest was created to keep you guys from entering the woods at night, right?

Got it. We're talking about a completely different Beatrice now. Strictly speaking they're a few elements that create Beatrice. The ghost stories are just one of the few.

Did you know about the hidden mansion on Rokkenjima, Kuwadorian? That house was created specifically for Beatrice.

So then it's not really a contradiction, right? Or maybe there's even more they need? It could be further than just what we can see here.

...Battler? Yeah, people keep asking about that, he's my dumb kid. Why, do you know him, did he do something to you?

[...

... Like father, like son.

Guess it won't hurt... much... to point it out...?]

... He t-told me the s-same things you said n-now...

As long as it's nothing bad, I guess. It has been my experience that generally people making assumptions about someone else's personality or similar are way off. What house are you in? It might help if we knew some more about the namesakes, that might be the answer there.

It's not like I've seen it or knew it had a name, but we all figured there was probably another mansion on the other side of the island, that's probably what mom wanted to find too. Come to think of it, Rosa said this woman was in a garden outside a house, so that must've been the place. And yeah, it was the same when we were kids too, the story's to keep kids out of the woods at night, but dad probably meant to keep people from going too far in entirely. So they wouldn't find his mistress.

I've been assigned to Sigyn. I do not feel I have much in common with many of its members, though I do find their company very enjoyable.

I believe these things are quite dependent on a time variable and environment. Therefore I don't like making assumptions either.

.....

Dumbass.

[He scratches his head, frowning.]

Hey, sorry, I didn't mean to embarrass you or anything, it's just a compliment, I figure shy girls could use a confidence boost, right? You tell me whatever Battler's been doing and I'll be sure to tear him a new one for you.

Yeah, then again if it's bad qualities no one wants to admit to that. I guess I can see that it's hard to pin down, especially when no one's 100% the same as what things like a zodiac sign say they should be, even if they meet each standard they'll have more still. But it's still frustrating.

Rather than move to a new House, perhaps you can simply move out of the one you were assigned to and further into the District? Or is it the affiliation that offends you entirely?

Do you desire to be in another House in its stead?

[... Her shoulders slump as she relaxes a bit. This didn't go as bad as she expected.]

I'm... f-fine. I'm... not used to be t-told certain things, a-and they... unsettle me a little.

He o-only said one thing too many and I hung up o-on him.

Well I just got here so I don't really know what the rest of the people here are like, it might not be so bad. I do plan to be moving out of the shared house, though, just have to work up the funds. But either way, if it turns out they're people I don't want to be associated with or likened to, then yeah, the affiliation's enough.

If it's enough to get you to hang up, then it's way too much! I'll kill 'im for you, don't worry about a thing.

The bakery I work at has been recently hiring.

[ It doesn't occur to her that for some people, that's...just a huge downgrade. ]

Recently, a new high-end bar has opened up too. They are also hiring. Would you like directions to it?

I don't think I'm the type for a bakery, a bar's a little better, but I'm more on the management end of things. But as far as start up money goes, a job's a job as long as it's not too embarrassing. Sounds good to me.

Yeah, I think it could be like that! Like a "bait-and-switch" kind of deal.

... P-please don't be t-too violent on your son.

I have n-no ill will t-towards him... just, I want him to realize he c-can't say certain things... [LMAO he didn't really go too far...]
