SUMMARY: Armaros is getting familiar with the City.
FORMAT: Quick!

[Guilt trip for what he'd done back home aside, Armaros's love for humans is not exactly diminished from being stuck in the year 2012 in some world that's probably not his own. Even here, he finds them so fascinating and amazing, with all the things they've managed to create in such a short time.

Because 14000 years was indeed a short time, when one got to be Armaros's age.

Having acquired contemporary clothing now to help him at least blend in with the crowd a little more, the former Grigori found himself wandering the streets, attention bouncing around everywhere, to shop windows, to people rushing by talking on their phones, to bicycles rushing by and every now and then, he even stops to marvel at the cars and buses.

Even the really tall buildings- skyscrapers?- makes him stop and stare, not even phased by people snapping at him to get out of the way. He can't laugh any more, or express his joy in any other way than smiling so widely at everything that it feels as though his face will be stuck that way forever. It's not quite the level of technology or civilization he's used to but it's still so, so amazing that if he could talk, he would be chatting away at anyone willing to listen about how impressed he was and how interesting humans are.

As it is though, he's going all over, going into shops or malls (how brilliant!) every now and then, stopping at street corners to admire tall buildings, or even checking out more residential areas and parks. He may not feel as though he deserves being here, but he's definitely loving every second so far.]

[If Armaros is noticing the stares that people are giving them, he sure isn't showing it. The fact that a child teaching an adult how to do these things is odd is completely lost on him, and he happily follows along when she tugs him off toward the train.

He's really just so happy to learn.]

[By the time the get on the train, Kaite has been busy pointing out different things in her best curator voice. She tugs him on and out of the way quickly.

Just remember to keep away from the doors when it'd not your stop. People will get mad if you block 'em.

[Armaros has been soaking up all the information eagerly, even though his attention seems to be going everywhere as while he does listen, he wants to see everything there is to see as well.

When they board the train, he's still looking around everywhere, making himself as small as possible when Katie says that people will be mad if he blocks the doors, despite not currently being in front of them, and he nods to show that he understands.]

[She points to the ceiling.]

See those straps hanging down? You can either hold on to those or sit down.
