This is Kohei Izumi.
I'm not available right now, so please leave your name and message.

[Oh, good. If he had to look at that grass any longer, there might have been a problem—]

Hey, Izumi. [He sounds innocent, but is this really the face of a man you can trust...] I was hoping you might be able to help me with something. Can I come in?

[He doesn't think he's asking for much. Honestly, if the weather weren't so terrible, he wouldn't even ask to come inside. This shouldn't take long, though.]

[Rohan steps inside. As he speaks, he reaches into his pocket to find his pen.]

I just need you to look at something for me.

[Without further explanation, once he's sure he has his attention, he takes his pen and draws in the air. The movements of his hand are so swift and fluid that for just a moment, the image formed by the ink appears to be suspended in the air. When Izumi catches sight of the image, he'll fall unconscious, and his skin will turn into paper, much like that of a book.

The question, then, is this: What will Rohan read about on these pages?]

I want to print this out and put it on my wall.

[The text starts off fairly normal, not unlike anyone else Rohan has ever "read" using his Stand, but it gets very weird very fast. At first, he just thinks the kid is just kind of dumb ("Lupus? Does he mean Cancer? That's still wrong!"), but then he thinks that maybe he's confused. ("Is it a brother or sister? Shouldn't he know that? And what the hell's a 'Japinesan'? This kid's not very bright...") And then, it gets even more weird...

There are a lot of things that he's curious about, and even some things that annoy him ("I think he can't take care of himself?" Is that what he thinks of him?!), but most importantly, Izumi's "book" answers two of his biggest questions—namely, whether or not Heaven's Door was legit and not just some elaborate idea he came up with, and whether or not Izumi was like him (that is, probably not from around here). Rohan is a bit torn on what to make of the kid as a whole—on the one hand, he sounded like a pretty typical teenager, and that was what he had gathered from their interactions, but on the other hand, he also kind of sounded a little like a serial killer. He wasn't entirely sure if he could trust him, but... Then again, there was an easy way to deal with that.

Rohan didn't like doing this if he could avoid it, but it was better to play it safe. This place was bizarre, and Izumi seemed a little confused... So Rohan takes his pen and writes on one of the pages:

I will not attack Rohan Kishibe.

There. Problem solved. Those words were now a part of Izumi's "life." From now on, Izumi could never possibly think or feel like he might want to hurt him. (Unfortunately for Izumi, probably.) He's about to close the "cover" of the book, but then thinks of one more thing. It's mostly an afterthought, but Rohan adds: I will mow the lawn for both addresses 5043 and 5044.

Okay. Now, he's done. With that, he closes the book, and Izumi returns to normal.]


Nevermind. [He nonchalantly slips the pen back into his pocket.] Are you okay? It looks like you slipped.

[He says that, but he doesn't seem too concerned?!]

Honestly!!

I wanted you to look at something for me, but I seem to have forgotten it at home. [How careless of him, right?? Gosh!] With the way the weather is, I'd rather not have to make even more trips right now. I'm sure you understand what I'm saying.

[In other words, he could get his help on this mystery thing another time. Of course, there was no mystery thing, but if Izumi followed up on it, he could always come up with something for him to do on the spot. (Like, you know, maybe mow the lawn??)

The excuse probably doesn't help Izumi's impression of him, but Rohan doesn't care too much. He could think what he wanted.]


Anyway, I'm sorry for bothering you at a time like this.

Are you sure? I know my visit was kind of sudden.

[He could have called, but he didn't. What a terrible, neighbor, honestly. (Then again, maybe that's because he usually didn't have to deal with neighbors in the first place.)

It probably couldn't hurt to stay, though. Maybe he could learn more about Izumi. (Is he or isn't he a serial killer?) Also, he probably had food. If he's being honest, Izumi has actually been pretty helpful to him since he arrived here, even if they were both in the same situation. He kind of hoped he wouldn't turn out to be a serial killer.]

[This man does not deserve to be treated like an adult.]

Well, if you're offering, I won't say no. [A snake!!] I really owe you one, Izumi.

[HE OWES HIM MORE THAN ONE.]

[Rohan follows after him. Normally, he was pretty picky (about... well, everything), but the strangeness of their situation allows him to forgive the fact that Izumi is settling for what he can only assume are mediocre sandwiches at best.]

Thanks. You're a pretty generous guy. [Please be as generous as you seem, Izumi, he's rooting for you. While he waits, though...] Where's everyone else? It's pretty weird for everyone to be out in this kind of weather, isn't it?

[He could understand if the storm had come out of nowhere, but...]
