It's not going to sound any better if I tell you the whole thing...
I wanted to look at some of those hologram scrolls, but there was a giant bug person there, and they wanted to hold hands to share the scrolls. I think. They didn't talk.
[Whatever this is, he might as well do it face to face... So he'll be back at the room soon, as promised, wishing he could play some mobile app games but ready for this mysterious story instead. Hi.]
[Is he still annoyed about the Bug Chariot thing? Yeah, kind of! Is he more preoccupied with how this is going to go down? Oh, yes. Is he using one to try and not think about the other? Assuredly.
It takes him another half-hour to get back home, but his eyes lock on Kakyoin the instant he walks in. How does he start this? Hey, remember that guy who killed you? Well, guess who's kid I ran into . . .]
Hey.
[Oh boy. Polnareff comes to sit next to him.]
Uh. So. I ran into the kid . . . a guy who knows me from the future.
[Know that Kakyoin has spent this hour just sitting and staring, since he's pretty sure that the second he decides to do something else while he waits, Polnareff will walk in the door. That's the half hour he has.
Anyway, thrill him. The future is already a bit raw as topics go, all things considered. He waits a beat, putting that emotion away, then-]
