hug hug, fall in love(?)
WHO: Akechi and a whole lot of people so let's go with OTA!!
WHERE: Around Ruga
WHEN: May 22nd
WHAT: Akechi has tried out some of Kyrie's potion and feels an inexplicable urge to hug people. That's it.
WARNINGS: That is literally it, I have no good excuse for this
[ He should have learned his lesson the first time: never take anyone else's food without checking it first.
Really, Kyrie's unusual behavior should have tipped him off; the man was difficult, the type that didn't really have many friends, and apparently didn't even want to be working on that assignment, in the first place, and yet, once Akechi made it to his door that morning, he was greeted with... a hug. Calling it strange was an understatement, but Akechi had chalked it up to Caramia's influence-- now that was a highly affectionate man, as Akechi has experienced in the flesh more than once. But that had been one heck of a wrong assumption.
And drinking from that inconspicuous cup? One heck of a wrong move.
So now he's making quick work of the distance between Flavo and Ruga, wondering how much longer the effects of that potion will last, and hoping against hope that he won't find anyone along his way-- hell knows hugging Kyrie had been embarrassing enough as it is, and if his roommates are home by the time he gets there, it might be hard to avoid them, too, but with any luck, he would keep these... incidents to a minimum.
... as fate would have it, Akechi isn't exactly a very lucky person. ]

But, oh-- the shift in language does earn an arch of his eyebrows in pleasant surprise. It's true, whatever magic holds this place together seems to have an automatic translation function, but it's always nice to see someone who can put in the effort and brains to learn a second language. ]
Just Akechi is fine. [ A shake of his head, polite smile in place. ] I appreciate that you asked, though.
[ So, in return, time to be a helpful boy: ] As for your question, yes, I do happen to know quite a few people who could assist you. You might have already heard of our city watch, and the man spearheading it has also assigned sparring partners to anyone interested. There are others who have special abilities that have proved to be very useful-- almost like our very own super heroes, haha.
[ But whatever would this Ordinary and Upstanding Citizen know of super heroes, right?? ]

He is glad that Akechi notices, not that he's looking for recognition or anything. It just seems like the right thing to do, in his experience. So, he nods at Akechi's response and opts to stick to his name, no honorifics, but he'll keep the Japanese for now. ]
Special abilities, huh? I've found that oddly common here, though I have little experience with it myself. Television and movies and comics, that type of thing, filled with super heroes -- but the every day person? No, not so much.
[ So weird!! ]
I'd definitely like to talk to them about what I can do to assist people here though. I'm not one for sitting on my hands and I have an affinity for science and engineering, personally.

[ Because, you know, he's just an ordinary boy who has never seen weird shit and definitely doesn't have special powers of his own so he was very surprised!! ]
Regardless, I would be happy to introduce you to Guren-san-- that is the man heading the organization, by the way. He was able to assign roles according to everyone's skills and strengths, so even someone without any combat training like me could get involved. I'm fairly certain he would appreciate your expertise.
[ Actually, Guren is the resident drug dealer so, like. Science... would probably be really helpful... ]
