Well, this was interesting. And definitely a far cry from Shibuya.

A few seconds had been plenty to figure that out, and the next few minutes' observation didn't lend Kariya much new insight, either. It was obviously some kind of Biodome, except for the humungous warrior statues on either side of the way in, the ticket booth next to it, and the line to get in, populated entirely by the Lapin Angelique fall fashion catalog. Fall 1860, that is.

All in all, it didn't look like the kind of movie he'd pay to see. Thus, opting to skip the line altogether, he started moseying toward the door. Wasn't like anyone could see him to stop him, anyway.

"Sir? ... Sir, wait!!"

"Hm?" Kariya swiveled to a stop as he gradually realized that actually was aimed at him.

The girl in the ticket booth pointed urgently to the line. "Please wait your turn, sir! I'll be with you in a moment."

"Oh. My bad." He dipped his head obligingly and headed to the back of the line, hazarding a glance behind him as he went. Nope, wings were still there. She shouldn't have been able to see him.

That really was interesting.

Eventually he reached the front of the line. "Sorry about the wait," said the girl. "Can I get your name, please?"

After a second, Kariya took his lollipop out of his mouth. "Can I ask what this is for?"

"It's just for our records," she said. "All visitors need to sign in."

Kariya didn't really think it counted as a visit if he was here by accident, but he rolled with it. "Aight. Koki Kariya," he said.

The girl scribbled it down in her ledger and reached beneath the counter, producing a brochure and some little black doodad, which she handed off to him. "Welcome to Paixao, Mr. Kariya. There's your journal and some information on the city, you can enter through the gate, and I hope you enjoy your stay!"

"Thanks." He headed away from the counter and inside, vaguely aware of the person behind him (now where had they come from?) getting called up the same way. It was only once he was a little ways inside the gate that he picked a spot on the wall to lean on, held his lollipop with his teeth, and checked out the stuff he'd just been given.

When he opened the journal, his smirk got a little wider. "Sweet."
