[ You try being stuck somewhere with only Fukawa and Syo for company, Kirigiri...! Well, that wasn't true. Asahina had plenty of friends who weren't either of those two, but in terms of people from home?
There was that Hinata kid, but Asahina still knew very little about him, since he wasn't too into sharing. So seeing someone she knew and furthermore someone who always seemed to know what to do? It's honestly the best news since donuts existing. ]
You're here! Fukawa-chan and Syo are the only other ones! [ Which...might explain the hug? She does let go after another minute, looking more than a little overwrought, although more in a happy-relieved way than anything else at the moment. ] Well, and some kid I don't know actually know!
[ Picture being here with only Fukawa and Syo, Kirigiri. It shouldn't be terribly hard to connect why Asahina's currently overjoyed. Though her joy fades into honest confusion, as she shrugs. ]
Hinata Hajime. He knew about Hope's Peak, which is more than I could say for anyone else, you know? He said a lot of his friends went there, and they were from another group of survivors...but I couldn't get much out of him beyond that much. Anyway, most people seem to have sort of come to the agreement that we're all mostly from other worlds and stuff? And I thiiiiink our school's not something in every world. As near as I can tell...
[ She's...not the detective. But she is pretty damn social, and she knows when people have no idea what she's talking about ala Hope's Peak. ]
[ But that's a thought for later, as Asahina brings up the whole "other worlds" business. ] That makes sense. It explains why we cannot understand the other students at this school, at least.
Oh, uh, no. I think the gibberish ones are like, native to Inugami Academy, actually.
[ She doesn't sound that certain, but Asahina is kind of used to half her gut guesses being dead wrong at this point. Apparently she doesn't feel like she has to comment on Hinata maybe hiding something for the moment, focusing on what she does know (or what she kind of knows). ]
In fact, people from other worlds? We're talking Japanese right now, yeah...? Everyone who comes here apparently can speak it even if they couldn't. Kurt Wagner, he's in my homeroom, he's an American and he didn't know a lick of Japanese back where he was from. He knew German, though? And English. He can still speak in those if he tries, but he just...speaks Japanese now. So I thiiiiiink the people we can understand are like us, and the ones we can't...aren't. I'm mostly saying that 'cause mostly everything that's written down here is also completely bogus.
[ She gestures to the walls vaguely, probably meaning various posters or the bulletin board. ]
Save whatever we put up ourselves, I guess...?
[ ...Still doesn't sound like the firmest belief in the world, but the logic is actually pretty sound. She has been there a while, though. ]
I see... I wonder how that's possible. [ She can't think of anything that might be able to translate things so instantly and flawlessly. But this is another world, so maybe it's possible...? ]
I think trusting only our own information would be the best idea, for now at least. It's best if we try and stay out of any trouble, if we can. [ After all, she doesn't want to be stuck in another dangerous school. But it might be too late for that. ]
Honestly, I don't know how it's possible. Other than that...I do know how to get contacts in your phone! You just have to get someone's name! I mean, when you meet people, you should get their names for sure, okay?
[ Emphasizing this because Kirigiri is the cagiest person in the history of ever and Asahina isn't sure the whole exchanging names thing will come easily to her. ]
...Though maybe since you already know Fukawa-chan, she'll be in your phone already? Man, I'm not really sure on the details...but, oh! There's probably a tattoo on your body somewhere.
[ And since this is Kirigiri, and they've already had a girl's bathing day with the others, Asahina just hitches up her shirt and pulls the hem of her skirt down a little, to display the tattooed 23 on her left hipbone. She was not best pleased about it when she found it on her first day, to say the least. ]
It's kinda somewhere different for everyone, apparently.
[ She nods, keeping that in mind. Usually Kyouko doesn't care to ask for names, but if their names show up in their contact list, maybe it's a good idea.
She's surprised to hear about the tattoo, though, and her eyebrows raise when she sees Asahina's. So they've messed with their bodies too? ]
If we all have tattoos, I wonder what else they've done to us...
[ Asahina kind of figures memory loss plays into things here somehow. She's not sure how exactly, but it just seems likely. Somehow someone has messed with their minds and their bodies.
Again. ]
...this place is kind of creepy, honestly, and people have died, but no one's...there's no mutual killing game. [ She doesn't sound positive about that, either. But it's true that no one has told her to kill anyone. ] Um, Fukawa-chan - well, Syo - doesn't have her scissors...we stuck together a little while ago while there were...monsters, killing people in doorways and things, but we don't normally. I mean, I try to keep in mind where she is and stuff, but you know how Fukawa-chan is. She doesn't really like hanging out...I joined some clubs to keep busy, though!
[ Which begs the question of "exactly how long have you even been here, child", but Asahina doesn't even seem to consider that anyone would wonder about that. She's occasionally a ditz. ]

Some kid? [ She throws Asahina a questioning glance. Of course there would be other people they don't know here... Who is she talking about? ]
