When it comes to gym battles...which is more your style? Getting the damn thing over with as fast as possible by exploiting their weakness? Or drawing it out by not taking advantage of their typing handicap?
[Kuzuryuu, your team is hardly the pinnacle of typing diversity you really don't have much room to talk about type handicaps here. You beat Chuck because you were over-leveled, let's not kid ourselves here.]
...This isn't meant to be some deep analytical bullshit of your character or anything like that. I just got my Storm badge and that got me thinking. [...] It...seemed like a good conversation starter.
[He...tried? God, is he ever making an attempt at socializing. It's just not a very good one. Especially with this long pause he seems to have gotten himself stuck in now. Did he forget what he was going to say? No, he just kind of got off-script from how he'd initially planned this post to go and now he's not sure how to end it.]
Look, just... oh what the hell, fuck it. [He sighs in frustration, snapping back to his usual, irritable self. He was trying not to be obvious about the contest thing but FUCK IT.] The name's Fuyuhiko Kuzuryuu. That's western order but let's keep it to family names, yeah? [Do not be fooled by the question mark at the end of that sentence. It is not a question; it's a statement, and his tone makes that abundantly clear. You are not on the (very short) list of people who are allowed to call him Fuyuhiko.] If we've never talked before, let's do it now. It doesn't even have to be about what I said before. The topic doesn't matter; I don't fucking care what it is, as long as it's not something stupid. Don't waste my goddamn time.
[WELL THAT SURE WENT DOWNHILL FASTER THAN A ROLLER SKATER ON CYCLING ROAD. People will be absolutely lining up to talk to you, Kuzuryuu. Well done. You will most assuredly beat Nanami now.]

[Greed, you're talking to a Yakuza heir. They have a completely different set of standards compared to normal people. This is probably not a road you want to go down...or maybe you do because you're hardly a normal person yourself.]
I will agree with you there though, the battling in the middle of a storm part is fucking weird. But...most people here are like that, even the adults. [It's....honestly kind of unsettling at times.] They kinda have a one-track mind when it comes to this shit.

...Guess you've got a point. Kids don't really have that back where I'm from. Unless they're alchemists, I guess. But that's pretty damn rare, honestly.
Even then things are dangerous. Only met two who could really survive on their own back in my world, but they're also not as young as the kids who keep challenging me here.
[He shrugs.]
That's.... a little disturbing, actually.

[He has a classmate who acts like he's alchemist straight out of the animes but magic is fake as shit in his world so...]

[What is with all these weird-ass worlds, holy shit. Aren't any of you people normal???]
A...anyway, yeah, it's kinda fucking disturbing sometimes. You'd think they'd be able to put it on hold in certain situations but apparently not...

...okay to be fair Greed's world is pretty messed up.]
At least it's just battling. It's irritating but not exactly harmful all things considered.
video;
Yeah...though, I don't know if I'd call it irritating, myself. You get more experience from trainer battles. But if you don't give a flying fuck about that side of things...

If they're the ones standing around waiting for people to wander by, it's their problem.

[And, again: KIND OF UNNERVING....]

Bet it could be a whole lot worse. They could try driving like that.

[Nobody drives here. Bless.]

Or us.
