Ichigo wondered if those ghosts and demons were the same as the ones Dean had been talking about. "I think Ino's going to be proud of your brain breaking skills," he decided, not sure if he should ask more about the whole stone angels thing or not.

"We were worried they wouldn't let me graduate if I didn't break at least one person in the next few batches of newbies," Romeo said apologetically. "Though if you're already broken, you were perhaps not the person to start with."

Ichigo smirked. "I heal quickly. I think you're good."

"Then that's something," Romeo smiled back. "So does your Tokyo have ghosts and demons and things that go bump in the night, or is it all entirely new to you?"

"Well... There this television show where a guy pretends to exorcise ghosts. Does mad media count?" Which wasn't a lie, it wasn't really an answer either however.

So he either wasn't a witch type, or was from a different world than Dojima. Or it was simply none of Romeo's business -- which, really, it wasn't.

"If you want it to," he shrugged. "Just, here, if someone said he exorcised ghosts, he'd most likely be telling the truth."

"So I shouldn't have laughed at him?" Ichigo checked. The whole idea was still ridiculous, despite what Chad had said about different afterlives.

"The one on TV, possibly," Romeo shrugged. "Someone here? Probably not. Though it might help the ones that take themselves too seriously."

Not that Romeo had personal knowledge of this. Ahem.

"Can we go with it that it was pre-emptive strike?" Ichigo asked.

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[withoutverona]

"Absolutely," Romeo concurred, amused. "Besides, I suspect I laughed at the first person to try to show me magic."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

There was a pause and Ichigo stared at Romeo. "Magic?"

He considered claiming jetlag and going to hide out in his room.

"Telekinesis, spells, powers, whatever one calls it," he shrugged, amused by the pause. "Some people here have it and are delighted to demonstrate it to new students."

"Is that your way of saying some people are just show offs?" Ichigo asked.

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[withoutverona]

"... yes," Romeo said, after running through how he had said it. "I used to be harder yet to understand."

Which was not showing off, merely stating a fact.

"How come? This isn't your native language?" Romeo didn't seem to have an accent to him.

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[withoutverona]

"Yes and no," Romeo answered. "We use more words at home, some things people do not use here unless they're intentionally being formal or what is called old-fashioned."

"Being here," he added, "has made my tongue lazier."

"So it's just a different matter of speech? You're pretty understandable to me anyway," he assured Romeo, but then Ichigo liked to read whatever the meta for Shakespear was.

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[withoutverona]

"I've been getting my speech corrupted here for six months," he pointed out. "But tell me if I stop making sense."

"I'll give you a shout if you do," Ichigo agreed.

"I think I need a refill," he said, motioning towards his empty glass because his player needed to go sleep. "I'll see you around?"

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[withoutverona]

"Certainly," Romeo agreed, wandering off himself.
