looks up as a woman passes by him and is startled by the resemblance to him. They almost looked like... twins. "Ah- Excuse me aru!"

glances up, blinking at the man. "...yes?" He looked very similar to her, and it was a tad unsettling.

it's a very good chance that she's the person he's been looking forward to meeting. "Are you... my counterpart aru?"

the man a once over. "That depends. Are you China...?"

nods and smiles, so she must be his counterpart. "Nihao aru! It's nice to finally meet you."

bows slightly, nodding as well. "It is!" She smiles at him. "It took us a while to meet, didn't it?"

bows back, agreeing. "Ahh, it was fate after all. To think that I would see you here aru."

nods, brushing her pants out of a nervous habit. It's weird, meeting your counterpart! "Ah, so..."

can't help but stare, she looked so similar to him... except female. "It's uncanny how alike we look aru..."

stares back at him. "Well, I'm not too surprised...We are the same, after all."

nods, it was still beyond his expectations though. "Ah, how have you been aru? Since arriving here?"

shrugs. "I've been alright, for the most part. A bit bored with nothing to do..."

smiles, "Come over to my house and we can play some Chinese chess aru. Or perhaps spar... Oh, a lady wouldn't know the martial arts... _

Something else then aru."

smiles back, a bit miffed at the "a lady wouldn't know martial arts bit", but she won't pursue the issue. "That would be wonderful."

pleased to have finally found a companion. "Have you found lodgings somewhere aru? Perhaps you could move in with me. There's plenty of_

space in my house aru."
