[Allen had just finished training for the day. It wasn't like his usual workout as he was slowly working his way back to to that. He was still honestly tired after what happened even if he didn't do an awful lot beyond talking.

But to him talking can be just as exhausting and yet here he was with a smile on his face.]

Hello... So I don't normally talk on here much but I'm trying this new thing called... being open and it's been going well. Sort of.

[He has his moments.]

So I decided why don't we all try giving a fact or two about ourselves. They don't have to be super serious or anything. Just anything will do and we can talk.

I will go first with some facts:

One: Back home we had a situation where people became zombie like and so to deal with something... I hit on a male robot to get him to do it. It worked.
Two: I have a bone to pick with Cupid. They're an asshole and I don't like them.
Three: I've cheated pirates out of money. Like a lot of money.
And finally Four: I once stabbed myself with my own sword. I thought it wouldn't do anything... I was very very wrong.

[All rather odd facts about himself that he was comfortable with sharing. The smile till on his face.]

So whose going to be next if anyone.

Okay, so. I got questions before I got facts. Are you talking about the actual Cupid? Like god Cupid? Or just the idea of love being messed up. You're probably not wrong either way.

Also if the robot was into you, you should have kept him around. What sort of 'zombie-like' situation were you dealing with?

And last but not least, I'm sure you're not the only idiot here who's thrown himself on his own sword to prove some point or another so you should console yourself with that.

I don't know honestly. I just know he came from a door.

[Yes, he was very much being serious about that.]

As for the robot. He kinda got destroyed and was a creation of Komui's so keeping him around would have honestly ended up with another hassle to deal with evetually. [Much like the reason the whole situation started was simply Komui amking a potion of sorts to help, but instead did the exact opposite and they just never threw it away.]

Last one...I know it's not literal zombies which is why I said zombie like state. When bitten you slowly will turn and then want to bite others and so on. You didn't really have any control either and with abilities...it's just not a good time.

[He soon laughed slightly.]

Then intent with the sword was more to defeat an enemy and me thinking that I would be fine when the reality was I wasn't except to it's ability.

So I'm going to assume a God Cupid or a Concept Cupid or some poor asshole named Cupid 'cause a general existential crisis usually can't use a door. [He'll go with that one.]

I know that a lot of the research that went into creating the virus that ruined my world involved 'zombie-like' things before they nailed the perfect way to mess everything up. But sorry to hear it about the robot, though. That could have been a good time.

[Look, he almost had his priorities straight, there.]

Most pure zombies don't have control around normal people. I'm a special case. And even I have a little bit of trouble if I don't have a special snack every once in a while. By the time Diagad let us go you all were starting to smell pretty distracting. Which no, I wouldn't bite anyone, it's just like talking to someone that smells like a bakery all the time.

[He clarifies 'cause people like to threaten him and it gets on his nerves.]

What was the sword's ability?

Considering the number of people who know a cupid and what they do, I would also probably go with the first one. Mostly because what he shot at the time were love arrows and it was not a fun time for at least me. Cannot say for others who got shot.

[It was one of the few things he wished he could forget because of the way he was at the time.]

Don't be sorry, the robot was also made by the person who caused the situation in the first place. His inventions have the tendency to cause problems. [And that was putting it mildly.]

You must have a lot of control then because that last world we were there for a while. [He was more impressed than anything.]

As for my sword. It has the ability to exorcise so to speak. It's actually pretty niche and I've never tested it on things that aren't from my world. But back home it was used as a way to try and kill a Noah without killing the human. Due to my own situation at the time this meant it affected me but it never dawned on me when I stabbed myself. So I have a giant scar to prove the dumb choice I made.

However if I stab a normal person, it pretty much does nothing except maybe scare them because swords don't normally do that without killing someone.

Aw, come on. Sometimes the people that cause problems are the most fun. Look at me? Put me in the right setting and I can be a great time.

[Is he being serious or poking fun? The answer is yes.]

Oh yeah. As soon as I got back on the train I ran for the stores. Luckily I still had some bizcuits in there- they're cookies with trace amounts of brain. Enough to keep me satisfied.

So let me follow, you're possessed then. I don't know what a Noah is, or who a Noah is unless he's the one with the arc. And you stabbed yourself and fiddled with your own possession or something like it?

And someone else had love arrows. Lots of unusual weapons there, made for things other than killing, huh?

Not when they cause destruction that people have to not sleep for days to clean up.

[Not that...those at the Order really sleep all that much in the first place.]

I didn't know you could make stuff like that and have brains in it... That would have really helped when I got into another situation sometime ago if I had known.

[He was once an actual zombie for a time.]

That's the simplest way to saying it. But not so much possession for me and more implanted memories that will slowly eat away at me till I no longer exist and that other person takes over. But you would also be right about Noah so to speak. They were the one with the ark. There are 13 members in my world.

And yes, yes they did. There are weapons made that aren't for killing and instead are for causing chaos.

And? Look at all the folks on this train that'd level a building to win a fight! Still can be fun. But I'm from the apocalypse so what do I know.

[He might have also caused a nuclear disaster out of stubborn spite when he was tricked into another lab to be experimented on. He's very good at causing massive messes if someone gets on his bad side.]

...Wait, you had that problem? 'Cause a nice Canadian lady taught me a great recipe for those cookies, if it ever comes up again.

[Honestly there are too many humans here, he wishes he were around more undead again.]

Sucks about the implanted memories thing. How did the sword mess with that? I'm gonna come back to the Noah thing 'cause I'm curious about that too. But yeah, first. Memory stuff. [Considering he has the ability to absorb those. If he eats the right brain anyway.]

I am not a fan of needless destruction more so if there are innocent people in said buildings.

[Destruction when those factors aren't a thing is fine though and sometimes just really cannot be helped so it's best to try and save the people who shouldn't be involved.]

Back in the last world I was in we sometimes had situations and things would change or something would happen. One time people got turned into various things. I was a zombie. It was very hard to work in protecting people when at the same time the craving was there.

As for the memories part... How it mess with things is the fact the memories were of a 14th Noah. Since my sword can affect them it of course affected me as well because his memories. Downside is it brought him through a bit for a moment as well.

Well, I'm a man that still identifies zombies as people when others don't. So I'm guessing there's some boring discussions of morality in there somewhere. [That he generally doesn't care about, because every time someone kills large groups of zombies at once he feels it.]

[Speaking of which.]

It helps when you're a Blend like me. The craving is just a little distraction. ...Alright, so... this Noah thing. I'm guessing that's like the whole big issue in your world?

There probably is.

[Allen's views of it would depend on the kind at the end of the day.]

That is my big issue. Dealing with it and... not vanishing and losing myself because of it.

Well, I guess I should be fair and give my three.

I'm in multiple relationships back home, with both men and women. No issues with that with me.

I'm immune to any infectious or contagious disease, and if I'm not immune yet I will be soon after I catch it. The enhanced vaccine they gave me really does the trick even if I resent the bastards for it.

I've crossed North America mostly on foot three times now.

Multiple relationships?

[The other two he can't help but be a tiny bit impressed about. What he knew about North America himself was that it takes ages to get there and that it's huge. He's been there once and that was not a fun time.]

So you got an enhanced acini that makes you immune to all types of diseases?

Don't know what an acini is? But I'll assume you're right. And yeah. I evolve each time I catch something. This red skin? Came from a flesh-eating bacteria I fought off.

And I'm polyamorous. I've got boyfriends and girlfriends... sort of. It's all open.

Sorry, I meant vaccine. But it seems like you catch a lot of things.

[Allen tilted his head slightly. These were for the most part new concepts to the boy. When one was only loved for a long time by one person, the concept is not exactly one he can understand right off the bat.]

So the word polyamorous means you can have more than one partner Is that correct?

Yeah, did din't really set out with the intention to? But funny how things play out.

[He's only the littlest bit of disgruntled 'cause labrat nor savior of humanity were goals he would have chosen for himself.]

Means you have more than one partner and those partners are aware of it. Otherwise it's just cheating.

I don't think people intend to catch things, but that is how life works. Just is a lot worse for some over others.

[He nodded slightly. He learned something new. Would he ever use that information. No, probably not but its still good to know.]

I think I got it. But how would one know the difference?
