Ah, well. They'll have to talk about the shrine, then. Yosuke shrugs. "Tatsuhime, the shrine. There was a mountain town. It's boring. Eh- toe...the old shrine live there. Empty. Inside, the fox lives there. It's not exciting. We go there to send a prayer." He informs her dutifully, looking almost sheepish. Who starts a conversation about abandoned shrines? Ugh!

Yosuke ducks under the water and then resurfaces a few feet away in the opposite direction, trying to shake off the nerves and awkward vibe. He doesn't want to come across as someone boring. He's not that boring! Besides, he's far from home. It would help if people at least wanted to talk to him sometimes. He'll just have to do better at making conversation. So he tries again, ever hopeful. "Have you been to New York?"
