<i>She stares at him for a moment... For some reason that feeling isn't going away, but even so she's not going to start a fight here. Instead Filia smiles at him for a moment before excusing herself. And noticing the other man walking over, maybe he can be more helpful... Though he seems oddly obsessed with space for some reason.</i> &quot;So um you deal in transport Mr Icahn, well that sounds very interesting sir but uh not quite what I'm looking for.&quot; <i>Filia glances over to the other man, wondering what exactly his deal is.</i> &quot;Hi there, um who are you? I've been wandering around this place for a while and nobody seems to know what's going on. One minute I was around home and then suddenly here I am in some weird city I've never seen. So uh do you know anything about this place Mr? Oh and almost forgot, I'm Filia nice ta meet ya!&quot; <i>She smiles at him and waves cheerfully, hopefully she'll get a warmer response from him than Carl gave her...</i>

<i>A girl wearing a hat wanders down the streets, for some reason the man on the other side seems... Off to her. And she beings whispering.</i> F: &quot;Hey Samson, that guy feels... I dunno, dangerous or something? Almost like Eliza ya know? Think we should check it out?&quot; S: &quot;Yeah kid! We haven't found anything fun around here yet so what the hell. Either you're right and we get into something! Or ya aren't and we've lost nothing but time... And around here we got too much a that.&quot; F: &quot;Alright, just keep quiet now Samson.&quot; <i>The parasite grumbles a bit before quieting down. Filia herself walks up to the man, smiling at him as she does so. Hopefully this guy knows something about whatever weird town they're in now.</i> &quot;Um hi Mr, can you tell me anything about this city? I'm kinda new around here and I've not really found much. Everyone I've met so far just kinda brushes off my questions ya know? Oh and uh my name's Filia by the way nice to meet you!&quot;

<i>Filia balls up her fists for a moment before taking a breath, this girl sure is trying to make her angry isn't she... People aren't just meatshields even if they're not very effective. Tch, part of her wants to tear off that hat already... But no. Attacking people for being jerks isn't right.</i> &quot;I'm pretty sure they've got actual names ya know, there's no need to be so rude is there? Even if they're not so good at fighting and such it's no reason to act like they aren't people, Kotori... But either way w-I am plenty useful when I try to be.&quot; <i>The girl walks off towards Quintus with that, hopefully he's not such an asshole because she doesn't feel like dealing with more than one of those tonight. She speaks to him quietly enough one would need to be listening to hear.</i> &quot;Hey, so uh what's your actual name? I don't know her problem, but I at least won't dismiss people on the word of someone else.&quot;<div class='edited'>(edited by Filia)</div>

OOC: Oh, I'm afraid I have work tomorrow so I won't be able to do this after all.

<i>A young girl wearing a hat on her head walks into the area, for some reason she pulls the hat down and mutters to herself before walking up the group. If it get's dangerous she'll show herself but hopefully that won't be needed.</i> &quot;Um hello everyone nice to meet you, I'm Filia and I couldn't help but hear something about a quest? I don't guess you could use some help? I may not look it but I'm pretty good to have around, and I've been meaning to practice fighting some more lately anyways!&quot; <i>Filia waves at them and grins, hopefully things will be worth looking into here... Even if it has been a little while since she's done anything too serious.</i>

<i>The girl's face lights up for a moment. It's good to know at least someone from home who's not a lunatic is around, maybe she'll even run across the other girl soon? But it does raise questions about this place even more...</i> &quot;Oh you've met Squigly, that's good to hear... WellI guess if Squigly's helping you then it's fine, come out Samson!&quot; <i>Suddenly her hat is... Devoured by something in the girl's hair, a face appears on the back of her hair and leans around to smirk at Ryusei.</i> S: &quot;Sup buddy, so I guess the overgrown snake and that girl are helping ya out too huh? Well they're annoying... But they ain't all bad so eh, if the kid wants ta help out then I guess I'm in by default.&quot; <i>She sighs as the parasite returns to his usual place on the back of her head, Samson means well sure... But he could stand to be a bit nicer all things considered.</i> F: &quot;just ignore his grumpiness Samson's pretty rough sometimes, but he's not so bad. And if she's helping then I'll toss my hat in the ring too! Squigly's been a help to us before so any friend of hers can't be so bad.&quot; <i>With that the girl extends her hand to him, it seems doubtful at best that he'd be making this up given he's got no reason to know of her association with Squigly.</i>

<i>Filia walks into the grounds around the mansion, for some reason the man screaming about darkness gives her an entirely too Skullgirl vibe for being comfortable, regardless she keeps her hat on and walks around a bit. Wondering what exactly sort of place she's stumbled into now.</i>

<i>The girl smirks at him, too dangerous? Heh, she takes a little offense at that really. After everything they've done she's not really scared anymore.</i> F: &quot;Hey we may not look like it but Samson and I can take care of ourselves ya know. We're pretty tough when we work together so don't think that I'm helpless or anything!&quot; S: &quot;Hell yeah kid! Anybody gets in our way we'll smash em to bits just like we did the Skullgirl and that dammed Double, If you think the overgrown snake is tough wait till ya see me in action!&quot; <i>She looks down at the droid curiously, her desire to chide Samson's rudeness quickly overcome by curiosity about this device.</i> F: &quot;What is that anyways? I know robots exist and all but I've never seen one like that before, did you make it yourself or something?&quot;

<i>She looks at Quin curiously... A dream huh? That sounds unlikely given things, but she guesses if he's not from a place with things like magic gems that make you immortal and Skullgirls this world might seem very dream like indeed.</i> &quot;I hope it's not a dream Quintus, if it were everyone but one person must just be figments right? And I'm pretty sure that's the case... I guess it might be a dream of many people at once? But after all I've seen? My best guess is some kinda weird magic is going on here, I've seen the dead rise up from their graves and even so... This place is weird.&quot; <i>In spite of not wanting to split up... Filia is more inclined to stick with Quin given the fact he hasn't said he'll use her as a distraction or anything, besides if he's as normal as he seems the guy will need her and Samson to help out most likely. So with that settled she hangs back as well.</i>

<i>She takes the disc and nods, hopefully it's nothing too bad right? Most monsters aren't as tough as a Skullgirl after all... Well that was home, so no telling what she's dealing with anymore.</i> F: &quot;Alright if you're sure it's that bad in there, I'll make sure to keep my guard up... Should probably practice some actually. I don't guess you know of anywhere I could train without people bugging me about Samson?&quot; S: &quot;What I'm curious about is what makes you so tough! If ya think you've got any business taking the lead over us you must have something exciting hiding somewhere right pal!? I'm always itching ta see new fighters in action.&quot; <i>Filia mutters something under her breath, Samson may be something of a friend. But that one track mind can be a pain, always wanting to get into yet another fight... She can't say that she isn't curious herself though.</i>
