[ Strange. Absolutely strange, to be brought to an entirely new reality, a whole other world he's never seen before, and in such terrible shape. It's like walking through the remains of Sternbild after the attack from those NEXTs on Justice Day, but the city was never rebuilt, and everything was left to crumble and age. It's unsettling, mostly because he's now becoming aware that people live here.

At the question Barnaby raises a hand where a colored wristband remains. He presses the call button, but nothing happens. ]

I was alone when I appeared on the beach. I can't seem to contact my partner, and I haven't seen him.

[ He decides to strap the other wristband given to him by the robot onto his other wrist, in the meantime fiddling with it, seeing if he can figure out how to get it to work and perhaps use it. If Kotetsu is here, he needs to speak to him, and if not... well, nothing to do in regards to that then.

(Little does he know Kotetsu is on the island, very safe, enjoying a drink on the beach like the slacker he is.) ]

Is it safe, here? In general.
