Who: Hikari-Asakura Hoshi. Open.
What: Reforging bonds.
When: April 1st, midday.
Where: Funbari Onsen, Tetha.

Being associated with a younger version of herself was certainly something. And, to her, it was quite unexpected that she was here before and had met so many others in the past. However, that part wasn't something she wasn't going to shy away from.

After she made her post, she would be found on the deck of the inn, legs folded underneath her as she had a pot of tea with a couple of cups next to her in case if others really would show up.

For now, though, she was content with just waiting and watching everything go by almost without a care in the world.

"I do hope that at least someone would show. It'd be a waste of good tea otherwise, hm?"

Well, now. That explanation certainly helped matters some. But, at the fact that so many different worlds existed out there was...incredible, really. Her smile grew more as she nodded to show that she was listening to him talk about what sort of stuff was in this world.

"So I see. That's pretty heartwarming to hear, I'll have to say - that bonds can be made so easily here," she commented, knowing that it was that fast back home.

"Either way, are you still in need of a teacher, and if so, would you like for me to continue where she left off? I know that things here aren't picture perfect and that there's work still to be done. I'd be happy to do it if you're willing."

Greg really hadn't given it much thought, if he was being perfectly honest. Just like when Lance had left, he simply stopped whatever training had been going on with Hoshi after she'd gone back home.

But it couldn't hurt, right? He was still doing weapons training with Vent at least.

"Eh. I don't see why not..." he answered, giving a shrug after sipping his tea some.

"Consider it done. I can't guarantee that I'll be the easiest teacher you'll ever have, but I'll definitely make it worth your while in the end," she replied after placing her cup of tea down.

"However, is there anything further you want to let me know in which she helped out with? If you feel it's going to take a long time to explain, don't worry - I have plenty of time."

"I can handle it," Greg said with a faint smirk. He certainly wasn't that scrawny little CSI that had dropped in a lake three years ago. He could take much more than he used to.

"Well uh, she was involved with DATS. We're basically the peace keepers and police force here. I work in the investigations department here, but that doesn't stop me from having to get involved in fights."

"I'll hold you to it," Hoshi challenged with a smirk of her own. It was true that she had grown a lot over the years and was ready to prove her worth here just as much as she did back home.

"I think Norstein-san said the same thing. I've contacted him already about potentially rejoining the force. As for the fights, have you a weapon of any sort?"

"Just guns. My wife's..."

He trailed off, smiling sadly, but didn't elaborate on why his expression changed so suddenly.

"My wife's Desert Eagles. Pretty powerful guns alone, but with Digisoul it's almost like firing a miniature canon."

Her eyes couldn't help but widen slightly at that. She had certainly known some powerful weapons, but she definitely had to pay some respect to that.

"And she was sent home, too?"

"Yeah... she was... a while ago," Greg sighed, slumping some. "She might come back, but I'm not holding my breath, yehknow."

Hoshi allowed a frown to settle on her face, however she decided to get up and give Greg a tight hug.

"Well, if I could come back, who's to say she can't?"

Greg shrugged slightly.

"Getting my hopes up now would just depress me. I still have a son to raise. I have to focus on that."

Hoshi nodded as she gave Greg a bright smile.

"Well, I have faith in you to do so. Everyone's a lot stronger than they give themselves crediit for."

"Oh, I know. I've learned a lot about myself in just three years of being here," Greg grinned back, running a hand through his short hair. "I've survived a hell of a lot, too."

"It shows," Hoshi complimented, an ear-to-ear smile on her face. "Sometimes things might work in ways we least expect them to."

"Heh. Tell me about it... sure as hell wasn't expecting most of this crap to happen. But it did and... well. Here I am."

"And now we can help each other out with how things work around here."

"Heh. Yeah. Good to have friends, right?"

"That it is!"
