Exploring
Gai is well aware that he stands out like a sore thumb on this...Earth, or whatever planet he's ended up on. Still, what's a warrior of light to do except explore and try to figure out what's going on?
He's made his way through parts of the city, but it feels weirdly like someone is watching him. He can't pinpoint anyone in particular, but it's...unsettling. Kind of like the way he could always "hear" someone in trouble.
Every so often, he finds a place to stop and looks around.

"Can you open this-mofu?" asked Mofurun, holding out her bottle of Ramune to Gai, offering the bottle to him.
"Sorry! I'm just juggling a bunch of things at once! I can get you one too actually! I'm Mirai, and this is Mofurun!"

"I'm Gai. Pleased to meet you."
He took a look at the bottle, trying to figure out how to open it. Glass, so it was definitely designed for casual drinking, as opposed to the tin cans of rations apparently common to O-50, Kanon, and Earth. But normally a bottle like this would have a screw-off cap or one that could be pried off.
He held it from another angle and finally got a better view of the mechanism.
"Oh, the marble inside is keeping the drink inside--is that it?"
He carefully placed the bottle down on a table and pressed down on the lid...only to have the ramune come fizzing out.

"Sometimes Ramune does that," said Mirai. "They can build up a bit of pressure, because they get shaken and the insides are carbonated. Here." She offered him a paper napkin from the stand for his hands as she paid for another one for Gai to try for his own.

That was safe to say, right? Gamu had said something vaguely about Earths that weren't used to aliens and how he and Fujimiya had kept their identities as Ultramen secret. Mofurun was decidedly not an Earth creature as far as he could tell, but was it okay to just admit that Gai himself was from another planet?

"Are you from the Magical World then?" asked Mirai. "Your clothing suggests you're not from Earth at least."
Busted, of a sorts at least.

"No," he answered, smiling as he shook his head. "Magic's pretty rare there too. But I suppose you could say I'm on a journey right now."
O-50 may have been the planet where he'd gained his powers, but it didn't feel like home. The rescue squad...maybe. Until he and Juggler got it in their heads to climb Warrior's Peak. And once the Light chose him, it meant he went wherever it told him.

Mofurun in the meantime, managed to pop a second Ramune bottle open and offered it to Gai. "Here you go-mofu. It's fizzy, and really refreshing!"
no subject
Food and drink were always easy to understand, though, so he took the bottle. It took a couple of tries before he could keep the marble from getting in the way, but finally, he took a sip.
"This is really good!"

Mirai giggled as she popped her own Ramune. "Try it, Gai-san, it's really nice!"
