...Would you want to stay longer than six minutes?

No. Not really.

[lavi like this is such a mystery....

Pokes Date]

Tell me something about you.

[ aitsf gives me hives. ]

Are you going to tell me something about you as a payoff?

I feel like I've been a pretty open book already... but sure!

I don’t think I’ve been exactly closed off. But explaining stuff that isn’t public knowledge is a headache.

[ sometimes you are trained not to tell your government secrets. ]

I really like good music. And the sound systems to go with it. [ this is probably not what lavi was looking for. ]

[lavi is also trained not to tell secrets but he usually tells them anyway and has to get beaten up by his father figure SMH]

What counts as good music to you? Hot and cold?

[ lavi your entire life. ]

Hot and what.

[he sings the katy perry song again]

I had never heard that before honestly. Not until like... you sang it.

So what kind of music do you like then? Classical?

Old rock’s pretty good. [ he’s thinking. ] Anything that’s good, but it’s gotta sound good on the way out, y’know?

[ the speakers gotta hit right ]

[Lavi shakes his head because he DOESN'T KNOW,]

If you mean like gramophones and stuff, then yeah I guess.

Gramopho--

[ what. ]

No, like... your speakers! The stereo, the surround sound!

...Is that stuff from after 1870?

… Yeah. Very after 1870.

Wait, are you from 1870?

Yeah! You didn't know?

[why would he know]

Why would I know that??

I thought you'd put it together! Ya know, like a detective.

From, what? You fighting demon-creatures? I put together you’re not from my world, at least.

[ he’s not a mind rea— well. he’s not a traditional mind reader. ]

[a TRADITIONAL MIND READER?]

Hmmm... does that mean I can pass for a modern guy?

[ don’t worry about it. ]

Where I’m from? No. I figured it was a whole “other world” thing.

[SLUMPS]

...What about me makes me stand out?

The red hair.

The monsters with gun feet. The talking about exorcisms like it's a battle royale and not a lot of spiritual men wafting incense around.

-- The red hair?

[the rest is valid though]

Is that cause you're from Japan?
