[It was...a more subdued reaction than Izuku had initially expected. Kacchan must have been doing some searching of his own. Which was a relief--he didn't want to get in a fight with a familiar face like this.]
Todoroki's here? [So there were others from school besides him and Kacchan.] I didn't know there were other forms of communication...that would be useful if we could all get our hands on them.
[The next few names were harder to parse through--the body-snatcher had to be Shinsou, but it took him a minute to come up with a face for a care-bear...Inasa, maybe? He and Kacchan had provisional training together, so it would make sense that he would have a nickname for him, and that didn't seem like a suitable name for Camie...
But Kacchan's attention is back on Izuku and he has...nothing to offer.] I haven't really seen anyone. This kiosk is in the middle of the mall, and there's not much foot traffic...
[He bites the inside of his lip, frustration growing. So many other people were able to walk around and gather information, able to help each other. And what could Izuku do? Just stare at hair all day. The inaction was driving him crazy. He pulls up the receipt of notes he's taken, parsing through the thoughts. In the very least, he could give Kacchan the information he does have.]
I can only take about five steps away from this kiosk in any direction before I start feeling physical repercussions. It starts in my hand and travels up my arm after about ten steps. Beyond that, my bones start to pop, so I'm worried...
[That they'll shatter again if he gets too far away. But that's besides the point.] ...well, I've talked to one girl since I've been stuck here, and she mentioned that some people seem to...disappear out of existence, or refuse to answer questions with anything beyond the same few responses, so I assume this place is filled with some sort of...placeholder AI to make it seem more populated? I don't know if that will become less so once more people wake up...
[He trails off a bit. It really seems insignificant and easily discovered if you just walked around. Frustrating.]
...that's all I know for now. I'll keep trying to ask people as they walk by to see if I can figure anything else out, but...
