"Uh." He had guessed wrong, then. Something cultural, maybe. Maybe just a whim picked at birth and there wasn't anything behind it. It would have... been better to just not say anything, wouldn't it? "Never mind. It's not important. It's nice to meet you, Estheim-san."
Something to pick up at another time, maybe, if he ever saw Hope again. For now, Mikado was a little preoccupied with what was in front of him, which, largely, was a lot of nothing and confusing details put together. Really; nothing here was familiar, and some of the hairstyles of the people present put anime and manga to shame. Or at least matched it. Did that girl have pink hair? That had to have taken a lot of bleaching with the length. And those tattoos on that other girl....
He almost didn't hear when Hope continued speaking. "What? A hospital?" So he had been right? But the other boy was correct--it was nothing like a hospital that Mikado could recall. His brow furrowed in thought, going over the aspects. If he thought about it, maybe....
His gaze snapped up to Hope, disbelief passing through him. "What? They can't be serious."
