.11 - audio;
I understand the basic premise behind... Valentine's Day.
[Hubert sounds a little awkward, uncertain and even a little nervous as he speaks.]
But I wasn't here last year, and we don't have a holiday like this in Strahta. Would anyone be willing to give me a little more information behind it? What's common for ah... not... "couples" but perhaps two close friends... ?
[Short, sweet and... mostly to the point. Mostly.]

You mean to say that there is a part above water we can visit, and nobody thought to mention this at some point?
audio
... your sons didn't bring it up? As long as the eldest one has been here, I would have thought they knew.
audio
[Yukio just got back, and Shiro and Rin had two heartfelt conversations in two weeks, which kind of drained all of their feels for the next month.]
audio
Well, there is. It's a nice place to get away from the bubble from time to time. And they hold events up there from time to time.
audio
[He'll be gathering up the stuff he got earlier so that they can do some training stuff.]
audio
Excellent. I'll meet you in the plaza.

Mr. Fujimoto, it's a pleasure to finally meet you in person.
action
Aah, we did only ever talk over those starfish, didn't we?
[This thought is kind of funny to him, because he's used to talking to people in person rather than over phones or communicators.]
action
Yes, but even here that doesn't last long. It's not a large city - people meet face to face eventually.
action
[He's still not sure where everything is in this city.]

It takes a few minutes to get up there.
action
Well, if we're coming up from the bottom of the ocean, that makes sense. The ocean is deep.
action
Yes, of course. It's a nice view, once we get past the bubble.
action
[And yay, sunlight! It's cold, but Shiro doesn't care, he'll just go ahead and step out and look around. As cold as it is, he is still grinning from ear to ear.]
action
[But the island is a nice change of pace, even cold, and Hubert steps out after Shiro with a faintly content sigh.]
action
[Sunlight represents freedom to him. He'll never not love being outside on sunny days.]
Let's look for an open space, with plenty of room to run around in.
action
[The question does get him curious, though.]
Do you not like being here? You have family.
action
[Whatever light does get down there is refracted by the water and looks weird.
Shiro starts heading east, looking for the open area Hubert is talking about.]
action
You think I would be more affected by it, having lived most of my life in a desert.
action
[Wow, Hubert must have had to go through a much rougher adjustment period, then.]
That must've been rough.
action
Naturally outside the city is hot and dry, but I got used to it.
action
[While he does like being outside, he likes it when the temperature is moderate and there is a cool breeze.]
But I guess everyone's preferences are different.
