[arrives and falls over, spreading out her arms in a dramatic 'I give up' motion. after a moment she sits up and reaches into her pocket, opening an energy drink and downing it]

Maa, why is school giving such a heavy workload? We don't have time for cases anymore. I haven't had free time in forever. Middle school exams are coming up, too. I'm doomed.

Oh! Yes, it's in Japan.

I see. [Starts chewing on a different finger and continues staring.]

[...kind of creeped out] Uhm, what about you? Where are you from?

I went to school in England. [He remembers that people are from different time periods around here.] What year are you from?

Uhm, 2026. So you're British like Sam?

2026...? Ah, I went to school in Britain, but I am currently living in the United States.

Oh, I see. I hear America is nice sometimes. And mhm, 2026. I guess that's in the future for a lot of people here.

[Smiles.] Sometimes. Yes, it is in my future as well; I'm from 2002.

...Can you teleport?

Ah, that's not too far back...

[blinks] No. I can't do things like that. Why?

Because you're in the future. [He doesn't expand. He thinks this is obvious.]

Oh! Well, we have a virtual reality augmented with our daily life, though.

...

[Beyond thinks about this for a moment.] Virtual reality...? [Hm, what question to ask first?] How does it work?

[points at her glasses] The glasses allow you to see the augmented reality. The maps and information feed through it and are displayed that way.

Glasses? [Ponders, with his finger at his lips.] That sounds incredible.

[finally someone appreciates them!] They are! Daikoku developed them, too, and now they're worldwide.
