[New handwriting on the journals! This one is neat but plain.]

This place is pretty weird.

[Pause. Yeah, okay, that was obvious, but it’s at the top of his mind, right now]

I’m Momotarou. I know the name’s a little silly, but it’ll serve for now.

Tarou? That seems like a pretty good name to me... [She's dismissing that smudge she sees instead of the first part of his name as an 'oops i'm not used to writing this name' thing, yes]

[kinomoto_kun]

Momotarou. Though I guess Tarou is fine too.

[likedempeaches]

[Have a few blots of ink on the page as she starts to reply, but then re-reads and tries to make sense of how that sentence reads to her.]

Tarou-san it is then! I'm called Suzuran, and welcome to the tree. It is very strange, isn't it?

[kinomoto_kun]

It's nice to meet you then, Suzuran. And yeah, it's all pretty weird.

[ruby_nova]

How are you? This is Nova!

[kinomoto_kun]

Hey Nova - well enough, I guess. Still getting used to everything.

[ruby_nova]

It takes a little time, but I'm sure you'll be fine. Have you thought any about what kind of job you might like to have?

[kinomoto_kun]

Not really sure yet - it seems like there's a lot in the Bazaar, though.

[temp_ered]

New guy, huh?

[kinomoto_kun]

Yep.

[temp_ered]

Weird name.

[kinomoto_kun]

I get the impression everyone's is, around here.

[spandexisyouth]

Momotaro? You do not happen to be short and young with dark hair, do you?

[kinomoto_kun]

Depends on your definitions of 'short' and 'young' I suppose - though unless everyone here is a giant, I don't think I can claim the first.

[spandexisyouth]

I see. There was a boy who was here with the name of Momotarou a while ago, but I do not suppose you are him, then.

Welcome to Edensphere! It is very weird.

[kinomoto_kun]

I guess not.

[pause]

Is it alright to use the same name someone else did?

[desertshadows]

What makes it silly?

[kinomoto_kun]

All it means is 'peach boy'. I think it's a name from a legend or something, although I can't quite remember.

[desertshadows]

Doesn't sound too bad. Maybe there's someone else here who knows about it.

[kinomoto_kun]

Yeah, maybe. It looked like there was a bookstore down with all the shops, though I didn't have a chance to stop in.
