Okay, this is... kind of a dumb question, but—

[Hope leans back a little and sighs, adjusting the sling around his left arm with a slight wince. He's somewhat arched awkwardly over the journal's view, the book itself spread across his lap since he currently only has one hand to work the thing.]

I just moved into a new house, and I'm sick of this colour. [He shifts his upper body to the side, attempting to prop up the journal to show what he means. What the camera catches instead is a blurred view of the plain walls zipping past before it slips from his hand and falls to the floor with a thump.

Heaving an exasperated sigh, the boy stoops to pick the thing up, dropping it onto the bed next to him with a bit of a scowl.
]

... forget it. But really, I'm going to paint the walls in my room this time, and I don't care if I get in trouble. So... does anyone know what would be a good colour, because... um... my favourite colours wouldn't look very good. [Day-Glo orange walls? No.]

[A pause.]

Can we... can we even get paint here?

[Very shortly thereafter, because he's stir-crazy after spending several days recovering from the battle, he'll be found either en route to or at the the plaza—which is essentially right next to his new home (House #41) anyway—journal tucked beneath his good arm.]

...Really? [The offer is what grabs his immediate attention—that earns her a soft smile.] That'd be great...! I mean... it'd be a lot more fun with another person. I'm probably going to wait until my arm's finished healing, though.

I... don't think I caught your name, though.

Hehe, all right! Whenever you're ready then, just give me a call! Or um, whatever the technical term, would be for leaving a message here?

Ah, oh—! Name's Minako, Minako Arisato! And yours?

Hope... Hope Estheim. I'll make sure to message you. Are you new here?

Nice to meet you, Hope-san! I'll be sure to be on the look out for it. You could say that, I guess. I arrived just last month!

Oh. Well, um... welcome, I guess. [Not that this place, itself, with all the 'nappings and drafts and experiments is very welcoming... but...]
