[ She remarks, waiting for his hand to feel warmer between her own. She doesn't say she thinks it'll be that way. Hope doesn't need the certainty, just the potential. Even the future doesn't know its own shape. ]
[His hand does warm gradually, as his power fades—Seria told him that he'd never given off an inhuman vibe on the outside, in spite of his demonic blood, and for that, he's glad.]
Well then, shall we find our way out of this area?
[ See, Karl, you do care. Even when you won't want to admit it... Anyway, as his one hand warms, Chihiro just invites herself to take up his opposite hand and free the first one up to make sure it likewise is warming up. ]
I don't mind doing that, but where are we finding our way to? Just away?
[ From the lights and the robots loudly offering services of various mostly innocent sounding kinds. ]
Hmm... maybe somewhere a bit more quiet [and safe-seeming] for us to catch our breath for a moment. There's gonna be a lot of things to take care of after that...
[They're going to be stuck in this world for a while, after all; they'll have to prepare as if this place will be their new (temporary) home.]
[ A nod; she's fine with that plan of action, though uh. Waiting for Karl to decide to take the lead. He's the more experienced party here, clearly he's got the better idea of what to do.
Her last time involved begging for employment so... ]
Like where to stay, and to work, and CERES and getting back our homes and friends.
[ Ah... immediately makes the next thread suddenly that much sillier, because Chihiro glances at what he holds out and leans her head over to look at it. ]
What is it?
[ Meanwhile shifting so that now she's standing at his side (??? still holding his hand I guess) and ready to walk. ]
chihiro;
Someone has to be chill, considering his usual company!!]
I wouldn't relish having to go like that forever, that's for sure... Hopefully, we won't have to face a repeat experience.
[Hopefully, they won't have to face worse, though Karl knows that that's a naive hope.]

Ah, though it seems like this— [he takes out his CereVice] —is meant to help us with the search, so we don't have to go in blind.
