i. orientation
[There's a boy sitting on the train. He seems very concerned about the sway and rumble of the train. Any time there's an off sensation, he seems to brace himself, as if expecting something terrible to happen. Once he seems to ascertain that nothing is going to kill him, he relaxes.

Eventually, he reaches into his pocket and pulls out the phone. Elan cocks his head and looks down at this bright screen that's so... flat. There's no layers. Nothing to manipulate. All he has to do is select something...

He turns you, another person on the train and waves the phone overhead.]


Did you figure out how to work this thing? It's so outdated.

[It seems like. Maybe. Just maybe. How it works is not actually lost on him and he just wants to see what you say.]


ii. graveyard
[It's funny that he makes to the graveyard. He wasn't going there. If someone pointed it out on a map, Elan would have turned on his heel and purposefully walked the opposite direction.

But he's here now and so it makes sense to look.

He moves through the graves, entire body weighted with trepidation, but he doesn't seem hesitant. It's a fear that he'll find what he is looking for.

But he doesn't and he doesn't know how to feel about that. A dark smile twists at his lips.]


Of course, she wouldn't be here. What would they have buried...?


iii. you scream i scream ice cream
[Elan wanders around the city, looking for something to do. None of it is familiar, so he figures might as well try to find something interesting.

Normally, he wouldn't find ice cream all that compelling but he'd been digging for scraps since food is harder to find when everything is a pile of wreckage.

The shop is so quaint in it's over the top colors and it makes him nearly laugh at the idea that anyone would find such a thing compelling. Yet, he enters anyway, somehow entertained by the idea of entering such a ridiculous place.

Elan ends up with an combination of impulsive combination of rocky road and strawberry and is taking slow spoonfuls before he looks around the parlor and actually decides to notice the other patrons. No one familiar. Still, might as well have a conversation now that he's apparently off his chain.]


Did you know I'm a CEO back home? My company is one of the most profitable and successful technology manufacturers both in space and on earth. My, I wonder what my stocks will do without me.


iv. wildcard
