Maybe I should have brought that Japanese to English dictionary. I'm not as fluent as I thought I was.

((ITT: Ray asks what words mean. Also note that he's asking for a translation, not a definition. He knows what they mean in English, but he hasn't come across it in Japanese 8D Words in bold = the words he doesn't know. Think of it like those

[pokeitwithatwig]

Okay, thanks Guy!

First off, what's a doppleganger?

[leadingrunner]

*There's someone sitting in the bench near you, Ray. Someone who doesn't seem to be quite aware of his surroundings right now since his eyelids are half-shut.*

[pokeitwithatwig]

...? *going over and poking him* Hey, are you okay?

[leadingrunner]

*Doesn't respond to the pokes, but he wakes up after a bit, and glances around until he sees a kid next to him.*

Uh...come again?

[pokeitwithatwig]

What's wrong with you? You seem kind of out of it.

[amieranger]

Idiots like you should never walk around without a dictionary.

[pokeitwithatwig]

Hey, normally I don't NEED one.

[amieranger]

I doubt it.

[pokeitwithatwig]

In most day-to-day conversations I do just fine.

[vestiality]

A-are you having trouble?

[pokeitwithatwig]

Yeah, there's a couple words I've been hearing a lot lately that I'm having trouble with.

[vestiality]

Which w-words? Maybe I can help...

[pokeitwithatwig]

Well, doppleganger was one of them. People keep talking about it, but I've never heard that word in Japanese before.
