| It felt a bit oppressive in this city with all this weird stuff he kept hearing about. All of this was starting to creep him out. But, it's probably some peculiar stuff that's probably harmless. Right? Maybe, he should keep his nose out of it and just pretend to go along without doing much about it. At least until it starts to rear its enigmatic and dangerous head at him. Then again, it probably wouldn't hurt to try and learn a little bit of this place. If he could, that is.
"What a day and what a night," he remarked to himself.
Some guy named Sharaku told him some weird stuff about the end of the world. And then this random guy just had to crash his bike into his window at the earlier night. A green star, yeah, was up in the night sky. What in the hell is up with that? It felt ominous.
As he reclined back onto the bench that's on the sidewalk of a street and continued to think about the city. | |

| The searing sun behind a pure ocean of clouds... The grey monoliths adorning the scenery of the city... People-humans... walking by, passing by, never minding anything... And furthermore... everything was spinning, twisting out of control...
Yes, the world was out of balance today, or was it that only Charles perceived it as such? Maybe... maybe it wasn't such a good idea to keep working non-stop these past few days... He thought he didn't have a limit as an android, and yet, here he was, dragging himself aimlessly through the busy streets in search of a place to rest. Any place...
Suddenly, the android's eyes twitched as something came into view-a bench. Not only that, but a vacant bench! At least party vacant, as there was a boy sitting on one end of it. But who cared about that, there was a bench there. Rushing his step a little, Charles made his way to the bench, not even caring to glance at the boy before he threw himself backwards into the hard wooden seat, blissfully taking a well deserved rest as one last sigh left his lips... | |

| What was the city so hung about? Joshua couldn't exactly tell, nor did he feel like he wanted to know yet. This whole end of the world stuff that Sharaku implied didn't sit well with him either. It was just too weird and probably out of his hands. So why get involved anyway? He leaned back onto the bench and looked up at the blue sky.
Then he felt someone was also occupying the bench in the same way beside him. Looking to the side, he saw someone sitting next to him. Some guy, but he looked a bit tired. So Joshua let him rest for a bit, for a while. Until he started to open up for small talk.
"H-hey. Weather's fine for ya?" | |

| As he sat there, hands sprawled across the bench, Charles was oblivious to the world around him. The people kept passing him by, cars roared in the distance, their drivers too reckless to keep watch of anything in particular. He enjoyed it that way, without any interruptions. It was as if he had been thrown underwater, alone but content.
That is, until he heard someone's voice. Not sure if it was even meant for him to answer, Charles's eyes blinked open and he lazily glanced around for the source of it. Around him, a current of people and, next to him, sitting on the bench, the boy he saw before. Was he the one who posed the question? That was the only explanation, but why? Not caring enough to bother asking if the boy called out to him, Charles turned on the other side, raising his legs and curling up on the cramped space he had on the bench. | |

| The guy seemed to not really care. It's as if he's actually ignoring him. Joshua didn't quite know how to feel about this, but at least he knew that it shouldn't be something to be angry about, yet. If he did, then he could at least reflect the same behavior as this guy, by ignoring. But Joshua decided to try again and then probably call it for quits for now.
"Sup? I'm Joshua, whaddya call yourself? Guy on the bench?" | |

| Charles was just about to shut down for a while when he was suddenly jolted by the same voice. This time, however, the person had to have been addressing him, as they called him 'guy on the bench'. Or maybe they were talking to the other boy? In any case, Charles was already getting back into his sitting position by then, so why stop midway? He groggily turned his head, scanning the area again when he locked eyes with the boy on the other side of the bench. As he locked eyes, they flickered wide open for a moment before closing halfway again, leaving Charles gazing at the other with a sort of an exhausted/possibly annoyed look.
"Were you... saying something to me?" He asked the boy briefly, he really had no will to say anything more before confirming that it was the boy who called out to him. | |

| He actually looked annoyed, oh that didn't look good at all. But what could he say at this point? Lie? Seemed kind of dumb at this point, especially after calling him out like that. Joshua resigned himself to this and started to say, "Yup. You. I mean who else is sitting on this bench?"
There's only the two of them sitting on it, it's obvious that he was addressing this guy next to him.
"So, uh, nice weather we got here," Joshua went back to the topic of the weather for small talk. Though if this guy was going to ignore him and go back to try to sleep, he'd just simply give up at that point. | |

| "Alright." Charles said before grumbling under his breath, but decided to converse with the boy out of politeness despite his condition. But what was this question he posed to Charles? Weather? Why did weather matter? All that mattered now was resting... and then resting some more... and then some more...
Yeah, Charles was still far from being awake at that point. The most his tired brain could comprehend would still disperse after mere moments back into the void of lost information. Barely keeping himself sitting upright, Charles squinted through his half opened, half closed eyes. "What did you say your name was?" | |

| "Cool, cool," Joshua felt a little bit relieved that this guy was at least participating, even for a little bit. "Yeah, my name's Joshua. Joshua Bae. What about yours?"
Now he had to consider what else to talk about now that he got this guy to talk with him. Perhaps he could ask him more about the city? It probably wouldn't hurt a bit.
"So, uh. I'm new to the city. Mind telling me what's it like around these parts?" | |

| Charles's squint squintered even further as he tried to focus as best he could on the boy. He was silent for a few seconds before opening his mouth. "Charles." The android said, his voice but a muffled murmur by the scarf wrapped tightly around his neck. Right then, Charles was really starting to hope that this was gonna be the end of their interaction. Seriously, he was tired for once in his life, why did this guy have to appear now to bother him!? In any case, when the so-called Joshua continued speaking, Charles was ready to smash his head into the bench, only to shut him up. However, he didn't do that. Much to his own dismay and against the voice in his head screaming for him to shut up, Charles answered the boy. "You mean what's it like around the city..?" Lazily, he raised an eyebrow, peeking over his scarf. "I have never been outside of Azores, but if I'd have to assume, I'd say it's just like any other normal city, isn't it..?" | |

| [color=green]"Charles, huh? Cool."l, this Charles guy certainly looked like he was starting to reach the very end of his rope. Joshua certainly should end the discussion very soon. But, not until he actually got this disgruntled person to tell him more about this place.
[color=green]"Well, that's what I would like to think," Joshua replied with a sigh, "But a lot of people keep saying weird things are happening in this city. So, you know anything much about that, Charles? I'll stop bothering ya if you could." | |

| Well, color Charles interested. This Joshua guy was now actually asking questions about 'weird things'. And not only that, but he promised to stop bothering Charles if he answered him. The android's eyes widened in glee as he cherished the thought of a good rest, a mere answer away from his grasp...
"Weird things?" He repeated after Joshua. "Like the green star?" Charles reminded himself of his previous adventure when he was trying to reach said green star, but Sharaku had to intrude and mess things up by telling him it was impossible! Anyways, back on track... Where was he? Oh yeah, 'weird things'. He should first hear what this guy had to say about the green star before continuing. It wasn't safe to assume he knew anything about Personas and stuff, so better wait. He was gonna be able to rest well after he was done. | |

| Joshua certainly now has Charles' attention. But he had a feeling that this guy was pretty much more motivated to at least get rid of this annoyance that is bothering him from trying to sleep. Said annoyance is indeed asking him about the Azores and hopes that this tired and annoyed guy could try to provide some answers that weren't given to him through cryptic means.
"Yeah, green star and shit. I was told by a... Sharaku that the world's ending or something? What the hell's up with that?" | |

| Sharaku? Charles raised his eyebrow even further at the mention of the man's name. But seriously, Sharaku was all over the place. The guy must be some Persona celebrity or something. Maybe next time, Charles could ask for an autograph? Yeah, that would be nice. Although, he was telling people the world was ending. Was it about Angels and Primordials?
Charles straightened himself up in his seat. "How much do you know?" He asked the boy. | |

| Joshua was starting to get a little more uncomfortable and started to question if digging in deeper was any wiser. But, he had to know at some level if he were going to live in this place. Though maybe Charles could tell him that this city was just full of weirdos and that's it. It would be nice, all Joshua had to do is just avoid them. Somehow.
"At best? This guy told me that the world's ending and it might start over or something like that. That's all I know. So what do you know, Charles?" | |
