| THE ONE AND ONLY PRINCE IN THIS WORLD Alive. Alive. Alive. Everything was alive. These plants, this room, these people. He didn’t care about any of it. He rather the plants be old and mummified by this building so he could trace their life back to this time they were in right now. Why couldn’t he be here thousands of years in the future? He was just too early here. He felt like he was going insane. With the group of people he had to live with, he hadn’t really made many friends. Yvette seemed nice enough, but it wasn’t like he could just go running around throwing himself into bowling pins all the time.
There were several who had interested, one of which included the snake charmer. There were many archaeological digs where there had been found symbols of snakes, snakes as symbols of the good, snakes as symbols of evil, snake charmers, snake gods, all sorts of things. Snake charming dated back to the Ancient Egyptians, and survived until even today. It was interesting how history could be studied now, to see how much the practice had changed since ancient times, how everything came to be the way it was today. Knowing history was knowing what they were, even if what they were was boring. However, such a talent that dated back so long ago peeked Hiro’s interest.
So, in no way was Hiro searching for Kasima to ‘bump’ into the snake charmer just for a chance to meet him and see what he was like. That was not what Hiro was doing walking around the lobby looking like he was exploring, while staying in there, hoping that eventually a certain snake charmer would wander in and Hiro would not fake a ‘oh what a coincidence’ thing. At all.

Kasima was walking around the hotel. Ever since the bear told everyone to murder one another, he was very careful. The small boy snuck around, even though he very well knew that doing so was absolutely pointless. He would have to interact with the others sooner or later, and he had been talking to a few people already. He really wouldn't want to leave this world like his mother did, lost in the sands of the desert. Except where he was wasn't a desert, which was arguably worse for him. Pondering all of that, Kasima didn't pay any attention and walked into the lobby, where Hiro was. It looked to him like the Archaeologist was looking for something. "Oh h-hello, Mister Hiro.", he said. "A-are you looking for s-something? Can I help?" The Snake Charmer patiently awaited Hiro's response. But while he was waiting, he pulled out the flute he used to charm all those snakes with. It didn't look special in the slightest, just a beige color. No decorations or fancy craftmanship. Kasima wanted it to look good for when he returned to his home village. He didn't play on it out of fear that Hiro might yell at him. Hiro Nakahara |

| THE ONE AND ONLY PRINCE IN THIS WORLD Hiro jumped the instant that he heard a voice, not wanting to get caught looking as if he was looking for something, especially when the one who talked turned out to be the one who he was looking for in the first place. Recovering from the sudden jump and rise in his heart rate, Hiro grinned from ear to ear.
“Kasima!” Hiro greeted loudly, “How are you doing, my man? Doing well? I am. Not looking for anything at all.” He sounded incredibly convincing, he was sure, but it wasn’t like he had a different cover story. After all, if he was looking for something that ends up destroyed or something, he didn’t want to be blamed for it. All he wanted to do was leave the right story behind for future archaeologists, leave a story that made them all look like the good people they were… and Kasima was even more interesting because of his talent, and just how long ago the talent came, bringing Hiro back to thinking of the Ancient Egyptians, where snake charmers could be documented back. Sure, he wasn’t a relic himself, but still… It was much cooler than say a computer programmer or anything else all fancy.
“I’m just walking around, and boom, we run into each other, a wonderful coincidence, isn’t?” Hiro let out a slightly nervous laugh. “Anyways, that flute.” Hiro pointed to the flute Kasima had pulled out looking at him with eyes of a tiger stalking its prey. It looked… really cool. If Hiro got a closer look maybe he could learn its story, and oh, wow he really picked a cool person to look around for. “Where did you get it? If you don’t mind me asking, of course.”

The sudden noise coming from Hiro's mouth triggered Kasima's fight-or-flight instinct. After the archaeologist mentioned that he wasn't looking for anything at all, he relaxed.
"Oh, i-is that so? I'm r-relieved.", he quietly said. "I just h-hope we get out of here q-quickly..."
Kasima just blindly believed what Hiro said, not picking up on his nervous laugh. "Y-yes, it is..." When Hiro pointed towards the musical instrument, he panicked.
"E-eh?", he exclaimed. "M-my f-flute? It's nothing special!" Kasima walked towards Hiro, holding the flute out. "It's r-really nothing special." He gave the archaeologist the flute to hold.
"W-where I got it? Umm, uhh...", he stammered. "I g-got it from a f-fellow snake charmer. Yes! I-it's been a few years, but this f-flute saved lives..."
Kasima looked up at Hiro. "W-why are you asking? Is my flute somehow interesting?"
