First Catch [video]

[The feed turned on to the sight of a young boy wearing what looked like a soccer uniform, and a bright orange headband. He seemed to be unaware that the phone device had turned on, and was instead looking around and attempting to discern his location.]

Where is this place...? It doesn't look like Raimon...

[As he looked around, his eyes landed on the phone device. He moved to pick it up, and examined it, causing the feed to blur for a bit, before finally settling to stare at the screen.]

What is this? A phone? Did someone lose it?

[Endou fiddled with the device for a bit before realizing that it was on, and was recording.]

Ah, it's on? Uh... hello, is anyone there? Do you know who's phone this is?

We can start by working to become friends then, right?

That's alright! I still want to be friends with you!

Thanks! We should meet up somewhere!

Really? I should try one then! But first I'll come over to your location!

[Another text pops up a minute after Endou's previous text.]

...actually, I don't know where I am.

Do you know where I can find a map?

Then I'll go ask someone where the 7/11 is!

[About 45 minutes later, Endou stops in front of the 7/11 store, and looks around, searching for Nny.] Oh yeah, I never got to see his face... how am I going to find him?

[Don't worry. It's kind of hard to miss the very thin, gaunt man leaning against the freezy machine, happily drinking his. He nods a bit in Endou's direction when he sees him. Maybe Endou didn't see Johnny's face, but Nny saw his from the first post he did.]

Hello.

[Endou's face lights up and bounds over to Nny, stopping in front of him and giving him a big grin.]

Nny!

[Nny just kind of freezes for a moment, straw in his mouth mid sip. He's honestly a little bit surprised by the immediately cheerful hello. You don't even know him and you're greeting him like that? Do you know how different from his own home that is?]

....Mamoru, right? Is that your first or last name, because I know they do this thing where's it's changed around in Japan.

That's my first name, but I don't mind if you call me by that!

What do people usually call each other by their last name where you're from?

[Endou nods.] It's supposed to be polite to call people by their last name. We don't usually call other people by their first name unless we're close to them!

I guess that makes sense. It's something this country could use, a way to be more polite.

Everybody I met has been nice so far though!

That's the thing.

If people are good at one thing in general, it's lying.

[Endou frowns a little, before smiling again.]

Well, I'll trust them until they give me a reason to think they're lying!

That's stupid.

What'll you do if they hurt you before then?

[Sorry Endou. Johnny is an eternal pessimist ~~on top of being a bad person~~.]

...maybe they had a good reason to do what they did. I'd find out why they decided to hurt me first!

[Well, eternal pessimist, meet the eternal optimist. This kid can only look at the good side of things, never the bad.]
