[Thank God for small favors. The temple is actually a really good spot if they're going to rough it - good vantage point, near a river, surrounded by a forest full of animals and fruit-bearing plans. It just doesn't make the transition easier on someone who's used to Wi-Fi and electricity.]
So, what were you up to before all this?
[Dixon's kind of aware that it's a loaded question, because before he got here he was on a roadtrip to blow off some steam by shooting some guy he met at a bar. For all he knows Shuichi came from a similarly momentous point in his life. Maybe that's why the kid avoids eye contact and looks like it's stepping on a nerve to be socializing so much.]
