"I'd like the help." he'd been here since September but he stuck to the same areas, the ones he knew, and didn't venture beyond them really. This was one of the first times beyond his usual areas of safety, and that was mostly because he didn't want any civilians to somehow be out and about and see him now, as Venice, and figure who he was due to his hair or something else.
"No, I have not. How do we communicate if we don't?" he asked. He was, of course, willing to share his cell phone number with someone if it would help him. Following along side the other Venice was glad he'd come out this way tonight, he had made a friend perhaps and had some company. "We can do this again, patrol together?" He asked after some moments of hesitation.

"Okay, then before we split off I'll give you my cell number." Erebus said as his eyes scanned the area. He had lived in the city for a long as he could remember so it wasn't any trouble to help Venice out with that, nor would it be any trouble helping to fill in other gaps in his Knight information. "If you haven't learned already, all of us powered individuals are either reincarnated from a long time ago, or descendants of people from that time. If you are a reincarnation Knight then it is most likely at your Wonder, if you are a descendant Knight then it could either be there or it could be somewhere on Earth and they seem to have a way of crossing paths with their Knights." He said, recalling the information about the descendant Knights. "Until you find your ring then you are basically limited to using cell phones or asking another Knight to forward a message for you." At Venice's hesitant question, Erebus gave him a small smile and a nod. "Sure, I would like that."

"That would be good." He said while his fingers fiddled with his phone. Closing out of the app and pulling up his contacts he offered his phone to the other. "I'll put in the name." Since the words were all in Korean, so he could use his phone without issue of typing in the wrong thing to someone.
"How..would I know which?" He asked wondering how to tell if he was reincarnated or descended. He couldn't exactly ask anyone but his parents, aside from maybe next month when he went to visit his family back home. He could always ask but what to even ask? Would they know and who? His mother or his fathers side? He hoped there was some way to tell without having to ask all kinds of odd questions, or rummage about his grandparents homes as that was impolite and simply not proper behavior.
"Thank you....I don't like being alone." And he did feel rather alone, only know Camelot and Polaris at this point. He felt rather adrift and on his own, or rather close to it.

Erebus took the phone and typed in his cell number then handed it back over to Venice. He then pulled out his cell phone and brought up the contacts to add Venice. "I just added your name so all I need is your number." He said then held out his cell. "The easiest, and only way as far as I know, to find out is at your Wonder. If you are a reincarnation like I am then at some point while at your Wonder you will get a flash of memory. It wont be much and wont make a lot of sense to you, though apparently the memories become clearer the higher in stage and power you are. If you are a descendant then you will find your ancestors ghost there." He was honestly thankful that he was a reincarnation simply because it would probably be creepy talking to your dead ancestor, at least until you got used to it. "You're welcome. One thing I have learned about bring a Knight, you don't have to be alone." He said with a smile. "Maybe I can introduce you to a couple others sometime."

Adding in the others name, or at least who it was that owned the number, he hit the save button and took hold of Erebus' phone and typed in his own number. Handing the phone back he nodded to the others words. Well, that made sense to him and was a good way to tell. he wouldn't have to worry about spending the Lunar new Year with his family making a fool of himself. He could just enjoy the holiday and time with his family back home.
"Have you had...memories?" he asked, even though it might be a bot, or a lot, personal. So he might gain snippets of memories from a time long ago? Well, that would be interesting and actually...he might find ways to include in the book he was working on, if he could. Such a thing would make the story even more personal...something shared between himself and a dead friend for whom the story was for.
"I've met...Camelot, that's it." Till now of course. If he was a decedent he'd met another knight, eventually, and while most would think ti odd he'd be honored. He'd wind up bringing things for them, he knew he would, and he almost hoped for that really. Was it a bit odd of him to do so? "We can arrange to patrol together often?" Till he got used to things, to the city and to being a knight.

When Erebus had his phone back he made sure everything was saved then tucked it away. "Do you just call or do you text as well?" He asked. Now a days most people texted but he would rather be safe then sorry and end up accidentally costing his new friend. At the others question Erebus got a brief distant look on his face before he nodded and focused on the here and now. "Yes, a few. They have been made up of flashes and feelings for the most part. Nothing truly concrete." He said after a moment. It wasn't that they were particularly personal to him, just a bit confusing. "One of it was just, the feeling of happiness, of a smile, and the sound of laughter along with some broken words." "Really? What was he like? I haven't met him yet, haven't had the opportunity." He would have to see about changing that soonish. The chance to learn from the only Royal Knight was certainly something he was interested in. "Sure, it makes patrols much better with company." He said with a nod and a smile.

"Text more than call." He had fast fingers and was good with texting, and all manner of social media sites. He was used to that rather than calling people, it was the easy and fast way to get a hold of people as far as he'd experienced.
"I see." Nodding his head he was glad to hear that, at least nothing bad. He would like to avoid that. Given his wonder was a wreck, and the manner in which it was, he was sure not all of it was due to the passage of time but some from violent acts against his wonder, perhaps the previous knight there, and whoever else. he didn't want to see that though...at least not yet. he was too new to it all, or so he felt anyway.
"Kind...gentle and helpful." He liked the aura the elder knight gave off. He wasn't aggressive and he was easy to talk to, or as easy as it was talking to anyone here for Venice. He was patient also and that was a need for the pierced page of Ganymede.
"it's good to not feel so alone." He got teased some in school for bowing more often than handshaking with people, it was a habit, when he got words wrong. Some people could be cruel and he knew it, he'd grown up in Korea where it was normal for there to be a class outcast and his best friend, while not being the class outcast, had been picked on by a few for being part Japanese. He had never been teased himself in the past though and unable to understand everything made it harder for him.

"That works out well, I do more texting then calling as well." He had gotten rather good at texting while skating over the years and that has also translated a bit over to when he was running around patrolling as well if he needed it. He blinked when a thought occurred to him and glanced over to Venice. "Oh, if you do find out that you are a descendant Knight, it might be helpful to ask your ancestor if they know where your ring is if you haven't found it by then." he suggested. Erebus got a brief smile when he heard the other Page describe Camelot. "He sounds like a good person to be a royal Knight then." Yes, he was definitely going to have to see about talking to the older Knight some time in the future. "Agreed." He gave a nod then another small smile. "You're welcome to text or call me whenever, whether you need information or just want some company."

"Oh! They can...help?" Wait...he'd be able to interact with an ancestor? Ask them questions and talk to them? Ok, so he really was hoping he had an ancestor for a knight, it would be very nice to meet them and he would try and live up to their expectations and honor them. Oh, he really wondered if people would think it creepy at all that he hoped for this. Though he honestly didn't care anyway.
"I think so...but...is there a lead knight?" Did they have a leader or were they a lose knit thing? He really didn't know and he was curious about it. Was he going to have to work to gain every connection or was there some organization to the knights?
"Even when not...this?" He asked motioning to his uniform. When he was a civilian as well?

"Yes, from what I heard they will be sort of your mentor. Of course just how helpful they are is determined on their personality." Erebus knew of at least one Knight who had an ancestor who had an... interesting... personality. "They are also your access to finding out more about the time they were alive since you wouldn't have memories of it if you had them." "Not really." The Saturn Page shook his head and shrugged. "To be honest we Knights as a faction are kind of...disorganized at least from what I have seen. We don't really have leaders unless we are a part of a group. Though I think some kind of loo to their royals as their leaders at times, if they have them that is. The Senshi are better structured in some aspects as they have the cats to help along with the multiple royals." He supposed they could always change if the Knights ended up with a royal who was willing to lead them, or if Camelot decided to do so. "Of course. It would defeat the purpose of contacting one another if we only waited until we were powered up to talk." It would certainly make figuring out patrols times difficult for one thing.

"Makes sense." From what he could understand of the others talk it did make sense. His ancestor could have any sort of personality, though he hoped it would be compatible with his - if he even had an ancestor.
"We need...organization." To not have it would not be good for them, it couldn't be good for them previous to now and it would continue as such. Why did they not have it? "Cats...?" He asked curious as he stared at the other with question filled dark eyes. This talk of cats and royals and why someone would look to them made no sense. He was his own person, though he wanted to work with others.
"It would." He said nodding his head and smiled. "Friends then?" He asked, as if wanting a confirmation to this. Did he have a friend now? Someone to call and go out and spend time with, oh the thought was very nice if indeed this was the case - especially because they were a knight also.

"I hope do turn out to be a descendant then you have a helpful, willing ancestor." Erebus said with a nod. "We do, I'm just not sure how we can get organized as I think a few Knights are happy to go off and do things their own way." Maybe he could ask Camelot when ever he actually meets him if there was a way to get more structure with out everyone just splitting off into subgroups. "Yeah, apparently there are talking cats who work closely with the Senshi and occasionally with us Knights. I've never met one myself though and they apparently do have a humaniod form but they tend to stick to cat form for the most part. It draw less attention to them as they are need to awaken and upgrade Senshi." Erebus stopped for a moment then nodded his hand and, almost reluctantly, held out his hand. "Friends. I'm Terry when I'm not Erebus by the way."

"Yes, meeting an ancestor would be good." He would like to meet them, even if he didn't get along with them. It was still something he would enjoy. But if he was descended from such a person...why wasn't it in peoples history or mentioned anywhere? It was rather odd that something so big...as people living here being descended from aliens wasn't mentioned anywhere, at least that he knew of and he was sure he'd know about it - history classes.
"Never met a talking cat..." But that would be something he would need a picture of and video, just for himself of course. As proof of it and to enjoy watching, he rather liked cats...and dogs.
"Kim Seung." Taking the offered hand for a shake, even though he also bowed. "Or...Seung Kim here.." Seung being his given name and that being how things went here. Natsuko-neko I think we can try and end in another post or two, one each. If we wanna just say the rest of the night was uneventful and they separated after some time and headed off home, or wherever.::nods::

"Well, either way, I'm sure you will find out soon if you are a reincarnate or a descendant. Probably on your next trip to your Wonder." Erebus said with a small smile. He was sure after learning about the possibilities, Venice wouldn't take long to go back. "Pleasure to meet you." He said and gave a copy bow to try and be polite, hoping he wasn't offending with it. He then gestured for them to continue on with the patrol as they talked. Sleet Tempest Snape *Nods* That would work ouob

No, he was planning to go back as soon as he could go, which was when? he had it marked down when he had gone and he had the selca pictures as well and they were time stamped. He'd be able to tell but he had been told he couldn't go back right away...a time limit. What was it for him? He figured he'd find out via trial and error...
Smiling at the bow he was surprised by it, but also...well not honored but something very close to it. Reaching out he lifted the others head and smiled. "Thank you." And the patrol continued for a while. With no youma, or officers in the negaverse turning up, it was a simple patrol as all his others had been. The only difference was that someone else was here with him and they got to talking. So when the night was over he was bowing as he wished the other a good night, and to be safe. He was happy though as he headed home, having powered down before leaving the others side, he was happy to head home in a nice puffy warm coat.Natsuko-neko And done, less you wanna do a post for final thoughts and such.
