[A yawn can be heard as the blonde-haired boy stared blankly into the bracelet, rotating it around as it was on his wrist. Well, looks like the thing is working properly, might as well address something.]

I'll never be able to get over how something like this, and such a place, can exist. One cannot doubt what life can throw at someone such as myself, and instead, I take it with open arms. With that out of the way, I think it's only formal to address who I am. Some of you know who I am already, but at this point, it seems irrelevant.

[This was a lot easier then he expected, alas, Giorno cannot help, but smirk at the ease of this. He needs something like this for Passione, but seeing as how that's not possible at the moment...]

Giorno Giovanna. Now then, unto the reason for making this...

It seems that after a little chat with someone I recently met here, it came to my attention that I need to...socialize. [The side of his mouth budged at the mention of that word. Jeez, this really is awkward.] And these bracelets seem to help out a lot in that matter. However, if you want to converse, feel free. If not, be on your way, I don't have time to waste on you. [He says this, a stare that pierces the soul.] ...did I sound harsh?

[ Oooh, that new guy... it's been a few days already since she talked to him, might as well help him out? ]

Hello, it's Hanako... if you remember me. How are you holding up?

[audio]

[ventoaureo]

Ah, Hanako, hello. Of course I remember you, I never forget anyone who would help me out.

Everything has been well up to this point. Nothing terribly exciting has happened, despite the fact that I've been finding seeds and growing them into plants...

I've also made sure to keep the bracelet with me, seeing as how I'm communicating with you right now. It's safe. [Yes, safe, and not glued to his hand, or anything bizarre he might have done with it.]

[audio]

[burntviolet]

Right your power is Growth. [ Hmm. ] It's still hard to use those powers, isn't it? I'm at an advanced level, so if you'd like me to teach something... [ She's done that before, it shouldn't be hard to do it again. ]

That's good to know. I'm sorry, I know that can be trouble sometimes. [ But at least he's not doing anything extreme, good... ]

[audio]

[ventoaureo]

I'm getting more and more used to it, actually, it's really not that different from the powers I had back at home. Although, I few pointers couldn't hurt. So, I welcome whatever it is you want to teach me. [A little chuckle escaped his lips, maybe she knows more then she lets on...]

No, it's actually no trouble at all. I actually find it to be like a trial of sorts, I've been put through something like this before. [Hopefully he doesn't break it...]

Yo, Giovanna!

[ She always calls guys by their last names, okay, don't take it personally. Just got to keep up that tomboyness.. ]

You think a lot of people will want to become your friend like this?

[video]

[ventoaureo]

[Oh, look, it's her. Seeing her makes his stare go blank, with a little bit of resentment mixed in there. Did she...just call him "Giovanna"?]

Giovanna is the female version of the name "Giovanni", but if you want to, then just go ahead and call me that. It's odd being called my last name...

Honestly, I'm not sure how to approach this. My friends were made naturally, seeing as how I was formally introduced to them. [Especially since the first one he met, he beat him senseless. Yeah, you're golden, Giorno.]

[integrous]

C'mon, aren't you a guy?! You should be able to take being called by your last name, it's what all guys I know do to each other! [ Even though.. she isn't a guy.. ]

And that you don't know how to is exactly why you need to try a little now! If you don't learn a skill like this, then where will you end up in this world? You'll be thanking me later on!

[ She proudly puffs out her chest a little like a little kid would. ]

[Voice]

[needsmoregreen]

Hmmmm, just a bit?

If you want to be more friendly, you should should say "If not, then feel free to do something else!" or something like that!

[voice]

[ventoaureo]

Isn't it only friendly to introduce yourself after you have the other person's name?

...hm, what I just said also sounded a bit harsh, my apologies. But, you're right, if I wanted people to flock to me, I should've said that instead. [A sigh, why did he start up this wager? He's a little too frank for his own good.]

[voice]

[needsmoregreen]

You know what, you're right, that was rude of me wasn't it? So let's start over again! [Ahem] Hi there, Giorno! My name is Bianca and it's nice to meet you! Like that right?

But that's okay! As long as you know it sounds a bit unfriendly, then that's all that matters since you're learning from it!

[video - yo it's your new suitemate!]

[holyfight]

Oh! Do you have trouble making friends?

I'm Inoue Orihime! It's nice to meet you!

[video - oh hey, suitemates!]

[ventoaureo]

A little bit. Although, I wouldn't say I couldn't make any without a little persuasion involved. I'm just not used to speaking, rather then acting.

Ah, a pleasure, miss Inoue. It's always wonderful to see new faces. [He smiles politely, before bowing. And then he realized how odd that looked on this thing. Way to go, Giorno.] I'm sorry, I'm in the habit of bowing when not needed.

[They will eventually figure this out!]

[holyfight]

That's okay! I do that, too!

Do you usually act first and then speak afterwards?

[ Video ]

[imhome]

...Maybe a little.

But that's okay! There's always time to practice.

[video]

[ventoaureo]

You're right, I just need to get used to being out in the open.

...by the way, it's only courteous to introduce yourself. I'm trying to get a hang on this, but sorry if that sounded a bit...rude, as well.

[imhome]

[ ...She's trying not to laugh. ]

Of course, my mistake. I'm Nina Fortner. It's nice to meet you.

[circlesewn]

[Well, Asgard does take in all types.]

Giorno Giovanna; we haven't met. Please call me Wynne.

I don't mind conversation, but it's a bit difficult to find a topic when I know nothing about you, don't you think?

[video]

[ventoaureo]

The pleasure is all mine, Wynne. Interesting name, if I might add.

You're right about that. Topics aren't really easy for me to come across, so let's start with something a little simple.

This sounds redundant at this point, but where did you come from? Seeing as how we are from different worlds.

[video]

[circlesewn]

It is no trouble.

I hail from Ferelden - the Circle of Magi, to be precise. [And since she assumes he is not also from her world, she gives him a bare-bones explanation, foregoing the gorier details.] Those born with magical talent are sent to the nearest circle for training. Our magic is powerful, but it is also a...dangerous ability.

[callmeimouto]

[blonde haired weirdo is more like it.]

Harsh, awkward, and completely boring...

Yeah I'd say you totally messed that one up.

[video]

[ventoaureo]

[Only a smirk came about on his face. Well, this one has spunk, however...]

My my, Signorina. Aren't you being a little hypocritical yourself? A little harsh, appearance lacking, and making this a bit more awkward yourself.

Ah, but then again, I'm not helping out this situation, am I?

[video]

[callmeimouto]

[appearance.... lacking....?! WHO THE FUCK DOES HE THINK HE IS?!]

Y...you....! How dare you! I'll come and punch that smirk right off your face!

[digifan]

I think a lot of people are trying to make friends here. It's just hard to find a way to do it.

video

[ventoaureo]

Hm~. Someone who understands the situation. Although, mine is forced rather then voluntary. In any case, it would be helpful to know your name.

[digifan]

I guess you have a point, huh? [Ah, right.] Oh, uh, I'm Takato! Takato Matsuki.
