... Do you really not realise how you word things weird.
[ Sir please, that's not what she meant! If she knew Jinwoo's current train of thought she would reach over and shake him. ]
That could still be interesting to explore... And it would be a nice change of scenery, compared to everything here.
[ The lights still give her a bit of a headache sometimes, though she is adjust a little better now. But he brings up a good point. Her mind drifts to her home country, her shoulders deflating a little - her hometown is by the sea, so if something similar has happened there... ]
I think I'll avoid looking up anything about my home. [ There's already enough on her mind, let's not add to it. ] But maybe we'll have a chance to help out the other countries too.
[ Is he about to learn something about himself... ]
You still haven't gotten used to the neons, have you? [ Jinwoo chuckles softly. He might be teasing Lapis, but he can't really blame her. The fact that some things are similar to what he knows confuses him more often than not. ]
Ah, sorry. [ He smiles sheepishly. ] You're from Italy, right?
[ Did he spend an hour googling what De Fiore mean? Yes. ]
You do. Some people would hear "spicy surprise" and might think you mean something entirely different.
[ Time for Jinwoo to l e a r n.
And him teasing her like that pulls a quiet laugh from her; he isn't wrong, though, and she won't deny it. ]
Nope, they still hurt my eyes a little. But I don't need to close them and be guided around now. [ Lapis would make a joke about no more hand-holding, but they've seemed to have developed a habit. Not that she minds at all. ]
It's okay, don't apologize. [ Pause. Wait, how does he... ] Mmhm, that's right. I guess my surname makes it a little obvious.
[ And then, it clicks. It might look like Jinwoo used his dash skill on his own blush because it spreads across his whole face in a matter of seconds. His neck and ears aren't safe either. ]
It does.
[ L e a r n what? He's back to square one after openly admitting that Lapis surname makes the country she's from obvious. ]
Nothing about Korea, unfortunately. I tried looking online, but the ocular starts glitching every time. I'm not sure if it's just bad luck or what...
[ Despite herself, seeing how quickly that blush spreads makes her giggle softly. Sorry Jinwoo, she's absolutely going to attempt to make you react like this more in the future now -
Though that lack of int stat is hitting again, and she hums softly as she plants her free hand on her hip. ]
Well, it is kinda unique... [ At least he didn't admit he googled her name. She can remain ignorant of that.
And then she frowns softly, canting her head as she considers that bit of information. It's glitching? The tech does seem a little scuffed, but every time... ]
Oh... That's odd. Give me a moment. [ There's a lighting up of her eyes now, as she tries as well. After a moment, there's a faint wince as her brows furrow further. ]
... It's glitching for me too. It must be something else besides bad luck, unless we're both unlucky.

[ The other option... he'd rather not say that out loud, even if he might be forced to accept the destruction of his home country in this world. ]
I'll try asking around. [ He's more or less aware that he brought the mood down. ] But I think I should get going for now.
