Absentmindedly Otoya glanced down at his wrist, more out of habit than actual curiosity as to the time. The Stuhrling watch he had received from his grandfather remained on his wrist, though Otoya could not even be sure it was keeping correct time any more. Was time on this... station... different from Earth? Undoubtedly, he was sure. Hell, he didn't even know what solar system he was in, let alone how far this place was from the system's sun. Add that to the long list of questions he wanted answers to.

He lifted his eyes from the watch face, glancing about the small alleyway. He could just make out the main walkway past some crates, a thin trickle of beings either coming or going just beyond them. The noise was a murmur from Otoya's position, which he preferred. He would take the hum of machinery over the strange languages and harsh comments any day of the week. On the whole, the student preferred to keep to himself. Don't cause trouble where one can avoid it, don't interact with the odd beings if one could avoid it... However, today, he was breaking that rule.

Leaning forward, Otoya frowned towards the crates. Magic. He allowed himself to scoff. More than likely it would be parlor tricks, but hey. At least it gave him something to do with his afternoon - and perhaps this man had a few answers to some of Otoya's many questions.

"Are you sure you're speaking Japanese?" Haruto asked plainly, feeling rather blunt about his choice of words. Most of what Otoya had just said had gone right over his head, though he stood there for a few more moments thinking it over and trying to make sense of it. "If you want an answer, you're going to have to start asking questions."

Unexpectedly, Otoya laughed. It hadn't been something big, but that small phrase had reminded him sharply of the many times he had tried to explain things to Fujimaru. It wasn't as though his best friend was stupid, only that Fujimaru needed things to be broken down a little more for him to fully digest it. Much like a baby bird. He smirked at the play on words.

"I'm sorry. I'll slow down." He would treat the situation as though he were with Falcon. "Where exactly do your powers come from? Have you always had them, or has it only been since you arrived on Omega?" He had other questions, but believed if he asked any more, the young man before him may become overwhelmed. "There are more, but they can wait until those are answered."
