Orb, RD11, somewhere in or just outside Schwanheim.

[A young man is backing away from view, staring forward with confusion. He has no idea what the orb is, has never seen anything like it, and is threatened by its presence.

He tries hitting it, to no avail. The sword, which looks a little too big for him, doesn’t work either.

He makes a noise of frustration and drops the sword with a clatter, pacing the little room in circles. He keeps a wary eye on the orb, waiting for it, or something inside it, to attack him.

After a while, he balls his hands into fists and sinks down against the wall, teeth gritted. He glares, no longer at the orb but at the floor, and pounds one fist.

His face contorts with some unseen pain, and he rocks himself back and forth, jaw clenched around silent sobs--his eyes are screwed shut as water leaks down his face and drips from his chin, his jaw. If you listen closely, you can hear his breath hitching in time with jerks of his shoulders.

He shakes his head--releases and re-clenches his fists. He’s mouthing ‘no, no’; he bites his lip and stops breathing completely, terrifyingly still.

He lets out his breath with a gasp and sucks it back in, harsh. Freezes again.

This repeats for a few minutes, but it seems to calm him. The rocking slows, and his breathing is less jagged and desperate. Finally, rubs his forearm over his eyes.

He focuses on the orb again, and his gaze flashes murderous, wild red. His voice is raw and full of more fury than should fit in his small, slender body.]

If this is an imprisonment, let me the fuck out before I set this whole place on fire.

[Ryo is at least totally unfazed by the grumpiness.]

This place is like some little cliche fairy tale kingdom--the King got it in his head that the kingdom needed heroes to take care of some weird magic thorns, so he's got a mage pulling people in from other worlds to fill those roles.

[This is all said with a perfectly straight face.]

Not a whole lot about this place makes sense. It's like it makes its own rules.

[Ryo...doesn't seem to like that. Dude's gotten his butt handed to him more than once in defense of humanity, after all.]

Humanity's more than just a bunch of dogs. They have potential to grow. To change.

[A very brief grin flicks across Ryo's face. It's...not exactly a nice one. There's a hint of bitterness there, as well.]

You could say I've experienced it a couple of times. Found it to be worth protecting, if I can.

[But of course he is going to listen to some random kid he's seen freaking out over nothing on the orb.]

And you should probably get over yourself.
