[Neptune is still hanging out near The Bay. He knew he should move on to the city, but he wanted to try to get some more information before going into unknown territory. He'd read the flier, but that hadn't helped too much.]

I'm not sure I believe this whole "you're stuck here" thing, but I'll go along with it for right now. I'm not going to rush into this blindly. So, anyone want to help me out? I could use some directions to somewhere to stay for now. I'm going to hope that no one I know is also stuck here, but if so... If you guys could tell me where you are so we can figure out what to do, that would be awesome. I'll be hanging out here for a little bit longer before I try exploring on my own.

[It was more than a little disappointing to find out that Blake had been right about Weiss not knowing him.]

I am. We've actually met before, snow angel. But I guess Blake was right about you not remembering that.

But, to introduce myself again... I'm Neptune, one of Sun's oldest friends.

Oh! So you're Neptune. Blake mentioned you.

[ And she's starting to understand why she didn't just scorn him for calling her "Snow Angel" but she's also kind of worrying about something. Since she definitely doesn't mind that and Blake told her that Neptune didn't mind being dragged into something because he got to see her. Which.. is a problem. Because he's ridiculously good-looking. ]

It's nice to meet you, Neptune. Again. Can I ask you a question in private?

It's nice, albeit strange, to meet you again as well. And absolutely. Is there a way to communicate privately on here, or do you want to meet up?

There is. I'm not meeting with you in person until we've established something first:

What's our relationship in the time I don't remember yet?

Fair enough.

There's not much that happened. We've really only know each other for a short time. But you did ask me to the dance, and after I made the bonehead move of turning you down because I can't dance... Jaune scolded me and I apologized to you. We had fun, and that was all that's happened. Other than the dance, we hadn't really had a chance to hang out.

I'm dating someone.

[ The words blurted out of her lips almost as soon as he finished. Weiss.. honestly barely knew him, but she knew he was attractive and obviously there was a mutual attraction. One which she acted on. And then Jaune of all people helped her to be happy in that situation, which made her confused about how she'd been judging Jaune too. ]

If we've only known each other a little while, that's good. We can still be really, very attractive friends. [ Weiss, you didn't need two qualifiers there. ] I'd like to be, if you would. I'm sorry.

Hey, that's cool. I'm sure he's a great guy. He must be if he got your attention.

[He's just glad he's going to have a bunch of research to distract him from his HORRIBLY BROKEN HEART.]

But yeah, we can be friends. I'm totally alright with that.

He is. I really like him.

[ There there Neptune. Go somewhere with Sun to make yourself feel better. Weiss looks honestly relieved though. ]

Do you need help with anything? Getting settled in can be a problem sometimes, but this place isn't bad all the time.

[He isn't really sure what to say about her dating someone anymore so MOVING ON.]

Nah, I think I'm good for now. Blake filled me in on a lot of stuff, and I'm sure Sun's got a long list of things to tell me. But I appreciate the offer. I'll let you know if I do end up needing anything.

Are you going to live with Sun?

[ That's going to be fun to get some eye candy neighbor, even if she's only going to look, if he is. ]

I am. He didn't really give me a choice. Not that I would have assumed I'd need to live anywhere else, once I found out he was here.

In that case, we'll be neighbors, and as a neighbor you should know that Sun and a man with a scar on his face the same age as us are the only ones allowed to climb through the window. Anyone else is probably breaking in. Also I haven't seen the paperboy for a while, but if a newspaper does shatter your window, it's normal.

I'll remember that. And actually, that reminds me of something Blake mentioned. She said you might have a list of people to avoid here?

First there's Lucifer, who may or may not want to kill us specifically eventually because we helped Adam get back a girl who apparently didn't actually want to be rescued and he's also the king of hell. Toto can manipulate his blood and made a post about having killed someone. Mewtwo recently lost the election for City Guardian and decided he was going to turn into a criminal who hates humans. That leads me to Azula, who is very powerful and potentially dangerous. You shouldn't use anything fire or electricity based against her if it comes to fighting her, but as far as I can tell, she's not presently a threat and it should be kept a secret that you're even wary of her.

Then the past people I know, in case they show up again, are Wily, the Ice King, and M. Wily focuses on robotics and tried to start a mandatory schooling experience based on threats which was eventually overtaken by Satsuki, who is much more reasonable and did not have mandatory upon threat of violence requirements. The Ice King apparently liked kidnapping princesses and M is a dangerous criminal that Yang told me about. [ She's not going into detail about M because she barely knows Neptune right now. At the very least she can keep things secret from total strangers. ]

Other people to be wary of but not necessarily worried about would be Adam, who is a member of the White Fang but is smart enough not to want to start anything here, and Loki, who broke into my room and threatened me once but never followed up beyond being an annoyance.

That's everyone I'm personally aware of. It's entirely possible that there are more.

Alright, good to know. [Neptune puts two and two together and figures that the other person from their world that Blake mentioned must be Adam.]

There's got to be something that can be done about people breaking in, because it's starting to sound like this is a frequent occurrence.

Tell that to Sun.

I'll make sure he doesn't do that anymore. That was only funny once but... You wouldn't remember that so nevermind.

I'll remember eventually. There's a way to restore memories here, I've just been.. busy, lately. So I'm waiting until things settle down, but I'll remember you eventually.

Hey, fair enough. It does sound like life here is pretty hectic.

It may be hectic, but it's not terrible. There aren't any Grimm, either, so outside of the occasional resident attempting to destroy the city or kidnap someone, there isn't as much danger. Not that that stops most of us from keeping up with our training.

That's not too far off from normal life for us.

It is in other ways. You might want to get a job soon if you want to help pay rent with Sun, the bills they give you don't last forever. There's a waiting position open at the restaurant I work at, if you can't find something else you want to do. And I can guarantee you'll probably pass the interview.

Thanks, Weiss. I'll keep that in mind.

And speaking of Sun... I'd better get to his place before he comes out looking for me.

It isn't like you'd be hard to find, but I'll let you go. I'm right next door if you need anything.

True, but he'll be less excitable if I get to him before someone tells him I'm here. I'll see you around.
