[That's pretty much what she did, yes. She also puffed her cheeks at any passerbys, but altogether, she was quite unhelpful.]
[That won't stop her from gasping dramatically when he regains consciousness. Hark, his savior is crouching above him, peering down into his face]
Hey, it's back! You're okay!
[Wow, she's even genuinely relieved and smiling. This might be cute if it wasn't a complete stranger]

[ Well, then. Thank god she was there to cheekpuff menacingly at passing strangers; who knows what any of them would have done to him? He could have been stepped on or kidnapped. Someone might have spilled their entire plate of mystery food on him. His clothes could have been stained.
Stained.
Cognitive ability slowly creeping back in, he props himself up on one arm, glancing warily around them before focusing on her. His first instinct is to ask who the hell she is, but it's become quite clear that he doesn't know anyone here. That can wait. But part of what she said sounded bizarre... ]
"It?"

[ Is it really sad, though? ]
I'd rather not try it myself to find out, [ And he shrugs. ] I can't disregard the possibility, though.
This colony might try to make things look clean and orderly, but there's a lot of trouble in every location you can think of.
[ Okay, that was an exaggeration, but HE'S PROBABLY PERTTY CLOSE ANYWAY, WHO CARES. ]

I don't know, in a shoebox or something like that? Though if you think it's a waste, it's a waste. I know not everybody is sentimental.
[Indeed, his hero has come to protect him. Humanity's strongest, right here, with the noodle arms and the hamster faces.]
[And this guy looks like a dead fish. She's gotta wonder if his soul really is back, what with the dead eyes. She'll help him up, in any case.... or as much as a noodley teenage girl possibly can]
Your soul, duh! You'd better be careful, mister!
[She definitely looks sane right now]

[ He waves a dismissive hand, as if temporarily losing ownership of your own mortal soul ain't even a thing. Not that he's the least bit convinced that that's what actually went down. I mean, people can't just go walking around assaulting others with flashing soul vacuums, right?
Yeah, that'd be ridiculous. ]
My head hurts, but that might just be from how loud it is in here.

[ There's that too, he supposes. It is pretty loud here. Hopefully, there wasn't much damage done when Levi got his photo taken. ]
It might be good for you to find your own apartment and get some rest, then. I can understand that arriving here can be tiring.

[ He briefly eyes the trash can, which has become something of a fan mail graveyard, but there doesn't seem to be any trace of regret there. Because honestly, the notion that this is anything but a small group of crazy people trying to fuck with him is complete insanity.
There's no way that many people would ever like him that much. I mean, come on.
It'd be a lot of shoeboxes.

[ Look, man, you might look kind of like a dead fish if you'd just had your life essence drained out of you by some kind of evil paparazzi, too. Give him a break. Also, it's not his fault people aren't generally into the dead fish eyes aesthetic. In fact, he prefers it that way. Not a huge fan of having too many people up in his business, this one.
The look he gives her while attempting to push himself up onto his elbows doesn't convey a great deal of belief. ]
My soul?

The card.
[ He pulls his own out to wave it a couple of times. ]
This is pretty much your key to everything. It has your money stored in here. If you swipe it on a keyhole, you can get that apartment and claim it as your own.
[ Though that means you have to go to the residential district, and this guy probably doesn't even know where that is. ]
Need a tour of the place?

[ Oh, right. That thing. Funny how hitting your head and losing your soul makes you forget important stuff... he frowns for a second and then reaches in and digs his own card out of his pocket to examine it. ]
There's money in here?
[ What is this wizard shit? Actually, forget that for now. He really shouldn't turn down the opportunity for a tour, especially if there's an apartment in there somewhere for him. He slips the card back into his pocket for safe-keeping and looks back over at Tadashi. ]
If you don't have other obligations...

In this place? [ Levi might be clueless, but Tadashi can't help but laugh. No way does he have any obligations here. Or anywhere, for that matter. ] I'm only here because I was dragged by some guys.
It doesn't look like there should be any problems with leaving as long as you've gotten the photos they took of you.
[ He pulls out his wallet and puts his card back inside, before pocketing the wallet again. ]

[That would be a lot of shoeboxes. Good thinking.]
Hm, you're right, you're right. I guess the next time you get letters or gifts or something, you can always figure out a better way to keep them.
[A glance for the trash can.]
You know, if you want to.

Mm, actually, there probably will be a next time. I mean, I've gotten gifts and things here that I didn't really want or ask for. It's not always up to us.
[ May as well pick his box up again.
He nods to the direction of the exit, which is being blocked by a bunch of security guards. You could probably hear the pounding of fists from outside, since crazy fangirls want to get in and see their idols. ]
The guys said they're offering everybody a ride home, so we should be safe.
[ These guys are also the ones responsible for the soul stealing, but... kanyeshrugs. ]
I wouldn't want to try and walk back to the residential district. It's like a convention out there.
[ You don't want to be at a con, Levi. ]

[ some people would probably be pleasantly surprised to hear something like this. but then there's this asshole, who just looks kind of disturbed by the thought of being given random shit by complete strangers. creepy... ]
How do these people even know who we are?

[He's actually wondered the same thing, especially given just how many different worlds there seem to be out there. It's never not unsettling, so he chews the inside of his cheek before he answers.]
For me, I think of it like this: If this is the kind of place where anyone from any world can be "recovered" and made to stay, why wouldn't there be people that know about us? It's almost one of most normal things about being here.
