I am...Nigihayami Kohakunushi, but you may call me Kohaku or Haku. ( The voice belongs to a boy who looks like he is no older than twelve. His expression is impassive, the grey-green of his eyes as difficult to read as murky water.

Behind him, there is a dragon with a long skinny body, short legs and tufts of hair on his head, neck and tail. He gives a mighty yawn, showing pointed teeth. )

I am new to Camelot, though I believe I have heard of it. In my world it was thought to only be a legend, but that could be a consequence of distance and not the truth.

I hope to make friends and regain - ( He stops himself, looking around warily. If another witch is causing this, he doesn't want to take chances and speak out of turn. ) Never mind.

This is my familiar. ( Turning, at last, to the awaiting dragon, he lays a hand on the spirit's head. ) Should you see him, do not fear him.

Um, hey there. Ah, Ruby Rose, here. I'm new, but you probably figured that.

[Okay, she's definitely a little bit nervous. Ruby's not exactly what one would call a social butterfly - she definitely got comfortable enough with Beacon to make friends there, but that's not really relevant anymore. Once she had any downtime in Atlas, she didn't know what to do with herself. And now, THIS? Is a lot to adjust to.

She fidgets and clears her throat.] So, got a tiny question, here...

I think I kinda get the whole familiars thing, but mine is, well... it puts me in a bit of an odd place.

Basically, has anyone ever gotten anything that should be a soulless killing machine back in their world? That, I don't know, would've been born in power surrounding your world's greatest evil...? [That, back home, she has a power specifically meant to ERADICATE things like the Grimm, AKA the very form her familiar has taken.] Anything like that?

[She realizes she's being very specific here.]

Because I'll be honest, the fact my familiar isn't trying to eat me, or anyone around me, is almost more unnerving than if he was.

[It was an uneventful morning between the man and his familiar. For one thing, the poor familiar has to drag him out of bed to get him ready, to guide him to get breakfast in the hall and it's a lot of tugging and getting him motivated. Once out of the bed, the man fumbles and bumps around corners, feeling the walls with his hands to make his way around to the dining hall, clumsily gathering food, picking up blindly and the rabbit flies around to help him gather on his tray, and get settled at one of the tables to have their breakfast.

The video started playing, but it was heavily blurred out as the camera is constantly moving. At first, the camera plays a video of a rabbit's face close-up with bright eyes, whiskers, and long ears, and a pair of feathered wings on it's back.

Once it comes into focus, the camera turned around, it started showing a man wearing white robes of oriental fashion with long billowing sleeves, his face slightly gaunt. He has long black hair, tied half-back in a simple bun with a long white ribbon and kept in place with a hair-pin, and wearing clean white bandage across his eyes. The man is blind.

There's two voices and it's clear the rabbit's duty of survival for them both is teaching his master how to use a phone properly, placing the phone in his hand. The man is speaking to his rabbit and the rabbit standing on his hindlegs on the dining table to give advice.]

I'm sorry for troubling you. You don't have to do so much for me. Oh? What is this that you put into my hand? A phone? What must I do? Speak into it? What I must say? What's a network? To communicate to others? It's recording, you say?

Hello? Hello, my name is Xingchen. I can ask others if I need anything? What's money? I'm not sure if there's a job I'm good at or if I need anything. We were foraging in the forest the other day and someone gives us free drinks at the tavern, so I guess that's something.
