As usual Lain was in an exploring mood, anything to get out of the house she never was one for being cooped up.
During her little expedition she found herself wondering where everyone was, usually she would have spotted someone by now.
After a couple more minutes of aimless strolling she stumbled upon a large group of people. 'Figures, people in animus always hang around in large groups.. like ants around candy..' As she approached she recognized one of the crowd members. Syl. "What does a penis look like anyway?"
'Jeez. This has got to be one of the strangest conversations I've ever walked in on..' She thought trying not to burst into laughter.

Rosa was caught off guard by all the questions about sex and relationships. She had imagined that Syl would have learnt a bit more about these topics having been in Animus city a while. But then again he did seem rather childish and may not have had the right sources of information to discover these things out for himself. All of the siblings had prior relationship experience both before and during their time in Animus, Syl must not have had... any experience at all.
But then again, things just get stranger and stranger.
"What does a penis look like anyway?"
Rosa backed away from Syl with a look of complete shock on her face while Maz burst into uncontrollable laughter.
"Um... I don't really feel comfortable talking about this," Rosa said, not really wanting to describe that to anyone. "But when we get the time we'll take you to a library and you can read all about it."

Karashi shifted, maoning softly. The medicine was starting to where off, and considering the conversation it was perfect timing.

Syl cocked its head at Rosa.
"Why don't you want to talk about it?" it asked, "people freely talking about hearts, so why isn't it the same as with penises? But I'll be happy to go to the library, if you want."
Without even noticing that Karashi was waking up, Syl then looked at Lain, grinning and waving at her.
"Miss Lain! How are you?"

Lain gave up on trying to contain her laughter, She found Syl hilarious. "Hey Syl! I'm great! It sounds like you're having an incredibly interesting conversation." She replied grinning broadly.
She quickly glanced around the group looking for any other familiar faces. Apart from Syl and Karashi she didn't recognize them. "Hi, I'm Lain." She smiled, Tilting her head in greeting.

Rosa approached Lain, her previously shocked face changing into a smile. She had underestimated how many sentients there would be in Animus, guess these people were better at surviving than many of those that the siblings had witnessed during their prior time in Animus. Rosa didn't stick out a hand to greet Lain, she had never been a fan of the formality of the handshake.
"Nice to meet you Lain," Rosa said cheerfully, still smiling. "I'm Rosa and that's my brother Mazrin."
Maz quickly analyzed this newcomer at a speed that nobody else would even perceive. She didn't seem like someone who could be a threat, her pleasant demeanor not showing any signs of aggression. But Maz knew that appearances could be deceiving and he would continue to keep an eye on her and the others until he was sure they were no threat to himself or his siblings.
"It's a pleasure to meet you." Maz said, his voice full of charm. While he could occasionally become detached from humanity he was still a charming individual whose voice alone harbored an almost tuneful tone that many found pleasant. It often helped him to appear nonthreatening to newcomers.

Veronica looked at Syl and nodded in agreement with the two. "Describing a penis really exactly the best thing to ask someone in public." Veronica flashed a smile and said, "But I think its cute you have a crush.".
Veronica looked on as another girl approached them. She recognized her as one of the kids who had been running around with Daemon.
"Hello Lain.", Veronica said to her. Checking up on the girl, Veronica said, "We aren't that far away from the hospital. We should be there in a few minutes.".

Fleur opted to keep quiet than join in with the conversation with the hermaphrodite looking kid and the other girl. She found young love to be beautiful, but their case was just plain weird. She held on to the glass box, feeling the beat of the heart inside.
The siblings, Rosa and Maz, seemed to be friendly. They were talking to Veronica's friends like they've know each other for a long time.
Fleur raked her wavy blonde hair with her slender fingers and sighed.

Veronica motioned over to Fleur and asked, "Is everything all right?".

She faked a smile to Veronica as she nodded.
"Yes." Fleur replied softly. "I guess our tea and shopping would need to be rescheduled."
She chuckled sweetly.

Syl went back to Karashi and knelt down beside her.
"Miss Karashi, can you walk? We'll be on our way to the hospital soon. If not I'll carry you! There's no need for you for you to collapse on the way there. So what do you say?"

Karashi looked at Syl and shook her head, telling him no. She didn't want to worry him by collapsing again. She hated making others worry. She reached up to him like a little child, smiling. She knew that he would pick her up and carry her. She didn't even need to ask.

"Nice to meet you too Rosa." She grinned. She seemed nice enough, At least she didn't look like she was about to rip out a chainsaw and chop off Lain's head. "And you." She said smiling at Mazrin, He seemed like his sister, non-psychotic. But there's always time for change.
Lain hadn't seen Veronica in a long time, not since she first arrived in Animus. She was embarrassed for not recognizing her sooner. "Hey Veronica." 'Hospital? I wonder what's wrong with Karashi..' Deciding to not risk at asking a stupid question, she smiled sympathetically at Karashi.

I pulled my flannel shirt closer around me as I felt a breeze pick up. When I get the chance I'll have to find more layers to put on, singlet and a flannel shirt aren't the best for warmth.
I keep on walking down the road when I come across a large group of people, from the looks of things they all seemed to be friends having a chin-wag with one another. I really do not want to go over there and interact with these simpletons but I've got no other choice, I have no idea where anything in this city is. Pulling out and lighting a cigarette I take a long drag before blowing out the smoke again, put it back in and make my way towards the group of people gathered together. "Excuse me," I gruff out "I was just wanting to know if any of you.." Looking amongst them, "People, can help me find out the major locations in this city I'm new and don't know where the hell I am" Pulling out the cigarette to blow some smoke.
_____________ Authors' Note: I'm not using Tommy here I'm using the new character I made Bruce Krauvitch just thought I'd let you know so as not to cause any confusion.

Karashi looked at the newcomer (Lain) and smiled back thankfully. She then heard a gruff voice, and she looked up to see a man with a cigarette in his mouth. Karashi frowned at him. She tried to speak, but when she opened her mouth, nothing came out. She tried to speak again, and again, nothing. She looked up at everyone frantically, pointing at her mouth. She didn't know why she was mute, and she was scared.
