Season Paradox: Pregame Assembly

[Falin Touden [Ven]]

'Why hello you two, glad to see I'm not the only one who doesn't like communicating much'.

[Satori]

-Sakuya although slightly irritated suddenly felt the urge to join in the conversation and introduce herself-

"Greetings. I am Sakuya Izayoi, Head Maid of the Scarlet Devil Mansion and loyal servant to her mistress Remilia Scarlet. That is all." *bows*

[Heihoukon [Tsurugi]]

After being compared to a person who doesn't communicate that often, Tsurugi felt a sudden burst of anguish. His mind flashed back to when he left his fencing career and all of his friends behind.
Not wanting anyone to see this behavior from himself this early, he quickly laughed Ven's comment off and decided to assert himself as the first person to greet Sakuya.
He decided bringing up his past early on would be a good topic for conversation.

"A pleasure to meet you, Sakuya. I'm Tsurugi Kenzaki, an esteemed fencing prodigy and avid scholar."

[Deleted]

"Hey the maid speaks thought she had no tongue"

"Well I'm Raspberry looking forward to study together with you all and hopefully I'll get a raise after I'm done from this place"

[Falin Touden [Ven]]

*Venelop3 looked at Tsurugi and realised she may have offended him, she walks away from the conversation and sits on a bench*

[Touwa Nemu [Hitomi]]

-Notices that there is nothing interesting here at the moment-

-sits down on the bench with Venelop3, and stares down at the floor-

[Heihoukon [Tsurugi]]

After Tsurugi sees Nagato and Ven sit on the bench, he felt that his reaction to Ven must have offended her. He goes over to her in an attempt to apologize.

"Hey there, Ven, isn't it? I'm sorry for my reaction. I know what it feels like to be a recluse from everybody else here. But I suppose I am trying a little bit too hard to make friends.
I need to learn when to just lay low sometimes."

After saying those words, he walked over to a wall nearby and propped his back against it.

[Giorno Giovanna]

-Raidou walks over to the small gathering, he notices that it's gotten a bit quiet.-
"Hello everyone, I'm Raidou Kuzunoha the fourteenth.  But you can just call me Raidou if that's easier."
-Raidou drapes his cape around his body and leans against the wall next to Nagato-

[Falin Touden [Ven]]

*Walks over to Tsurugi* "If you apologised then I shall apologise too, I didn't mean to offend you, I was just being my usual suspecting self, sorry" *She nods her head and walks back to the bench with Nagato on it* "Hello, I know how you are feeling out of your league, but it's okay, me too" *she smiles, and then closes her eyes*

[Touwa Nemu [Hitomi]]

-turns to look at Ven-

"..out of my league?"

-blinks-

[Heihoukon [Tsurugi]]

"No harm done, Ven, don't worry about it at all."

Seeing a fellow swordsman made Tsurugi slightly anxious. He knew he could hold his own in a duel, but did this man know that Tsurugi left fencing to pursue other interests?
Thinking it best to remain on this person's good side, Tsurugi approached Raidou and struck up a conversation.

"Ah, so you're a fellow swordsman as well! It's interesting that we haven't crossed blades yet. My name is Tsurugi Kenzaki, and it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance."

[Falin Touden [Ven]]

"I mean quiet! I don't mean it offensively! I means I expect you to have an amazing mind".

[Giorno Giovanna]

-Raidou looks to Ven-
"Ven was it?  I don't know about you, but this girl seems to be pretty fine with the situation.  She looks like she could hold her own in a battle of wits."
-Turns to Tsurugi-
"Hoy, it seems there aren't many competent swordsmen these days.  It is refreshing to meet someone who appreciates the craft."

[Falin Touden [Ven]]

"I never said she couldn't handle her wits sir".

[Giorno Giovanna]

-Ignoring the contradiction that Ven had just posed Raidou sighs-
"Of course you didn't, I apologise for implying anything"
