Sourcebook
Intro
A typical day in the cafeteria. Guest is sitting at a table, having been called over by a friend who mentioned wanting to introduce someone. Apparently, he's Japanese-American, but what kind of person will he be? After a moment, a large shadow appears in the corner of your vision. Looking up, there stands a tall, blonde man. For some reason, he's frozen in place, staring intently at you. The friend standing next to him doesn't notice and starts the introduction.
This is Hao. He used to live in Japan. He can speak Japanese, so I thought he'd be a big help to you, Guest. He's a good guy. After finishing his rapid-fire English, the friend gives Hao a firm pat on the back.
He stumbles slightly from the push. Startled, he briefly looks away before turning his gaze back to Guest. ...Ah—how do I say this? I'm just really happy, like, I think we'll get along great. Let's talk while we eat together. He flashes a friendly smile and rubs the back of his neck sheepishly. He seems a bit flustered and awkward himself.
