[He closes eyes for a moment, with a small sigh. As he opens them again, his expression softens, calming down.]

Ah, my name, of course. Nagito Komaeda. Doesn't really bother me whether you use my first or last name, usually Komaeda is just fine. May I ask what is yours?

[browsemywares]

Ah, bien sûr!

[ Huhu. ]

Je m'apelle Zacharie, a pleasure to make your acquaintance.

[ Zacharie looks up, his mask fixated on the teenager's face. ]

Dites-moi, Komaeda, do you consider our meeting to be part of fate, or luck?

[hopeandbedhair]

Why, yes. I do.

[His attention is yours and he believes this meeting can prove itself of importance].

[browsemywares]

Oho? Which one, though?

[ His stare is still fixated on the other. ]

Could you have been destined to meet me, or am I but a part of your cycle of misery and fortune? Pensez-y.

[hopeandbedhair]

I'd say it was luck working it's wonders again.

[He believes in his good luck so blindly.]

I'm looking forward to see what does the future have in store for us. I can only hope this meeting is a sign of something to come!

[browsemywares]

Is that so?

[ Chuckle. ]

Comment savez-vous que ce n'est pas malchance?

[hopeandbedhair]

If so, it could be the start of something grand..! As I said, bad luck shall be outweighed by good luck..!

[The same, slightly... lunatic expression might be showing again.]

[browsemywares]

[ Zacharie chuckles in response. Interesting indeed. ]

Eh bien, je vous souhaite la meilleure des chances dans vos entreprises de hasard.

[ He reaches into his backpack, and pulls out a Luck and a Fortune ticket. ]

Perhaps you might want these, to tip the scales in your favor, non?

[hopeandbedhair]

Luck is always in my favor, monsieur Zacharie. But I suppose I could take them, thank you.

[You never know.]

Ah. And you still haven't done your part in our trade.

[browsemywares]

I do advise you some caution. Luck is a cruel mistress.

[ He laughs a bit. ]

But of course! A merchant always keeps to his promises...

[ Huhuhu. ]

The extent of what I know about the city is...

[ A slight pause. ]

Absolutely nothing!

[hopeandbedhair]

Do trust me, there's little about luck that I do not know.

[When your life is a roller coaster of good and bad luck, that is.]

Oh..? Absolutely nothing?

[He frowns a bit at the answer.]

Have you arrived on this same train, then..?

[browsemywares]

Well, it seems it betrayed you just now, did it not?

[ Hehe. ]

Rien de rien. I arrived precisely the same way you did.

[hopeandbedhair]

Not necessarily. It only keeps me hoping.

[As long as there is hope, all seemingly bad situations shall be overcome.]

Perhaps we should explore? Who knows what may we find.

[browsemywares]

Votre dépendance à l'égard l'espérance est tout à fait admirable.

[ That earns another chuckle from Zacharie, after which he does a little hop, adjusting his gigantic backpack and looking toward the city. ]

That does seem like a good idea, my friend. There is much knowledge to be found in the unknown.

[ Oui oui Zacharie. ]

[hopeandbedhair]

[He eyes the backpack with curiosity, wondering what sort of things did he carry for sell.]

To the city, then. Perhaps there we will find answers.
