[Open] On second thought.
Izumi looks around and feels sort of left out, he really doesn't want to bother anyone as much as he normally would want to. He's left alone just to drink and watch the others. Within that he decides he probably should just leave so he could do much of nothing on his own time, he sees that several of the other loners are eyeing the doors or generally are being a little too aware of their surroundings. Any attempt of an exit would honestly be questioned. On second thought he stays put and just takes a sip of juice and looks around.
"At least I get to hear music I've never really listened to or payed much attention to before... I guess."
Not much of a bright side, but... it's a bright side.

Re: [Open] On second thought.
A few tables over Eric sits in sullen silence, staring at Izumi.
He's like me... nobody to talk to.
Eric begins to get up, and takes a few small steps towards him, only to sit down at another chair but a little closer to him.
Maybe not tonight.
He breaks into violent coughing.

Izumi notices movement but decides not to look in it's direction figuring it's just someone just getting up to get a drink or something. He then hears a violent fit of coughing and turns his head. It's a person he doesn't really know and Izumi gains a look of concern as the boy coughs.
"Mister, are you okay? You look like you're about to keel over."

Eric's coughing stops as soon as it's started, and he looks up, looking visibly paler than before.
"I'm fine. I just haven't.... eaten in a while."
It must be the lack of blood... I'm going to have to take a trip to the city. Or get injured enough to warrant a blood transfusion.
"This dance is.... quite something, isn't it? I don't know how people enjoy this. Bright lights, loud noises, people writhing against each other like some tribalistic ritual.... It's animalistic."

Re: [Open] On second thought.
Izumi lingers on the world 'animalistic'. Granted, very many animals do partake in strange rituals, like for mating or to warn others to stay back. However, there aren't many accounts of playtime rituals besides basic play fighting.
"Actually, it's a very human thing, dances. Animals only really do their rituals when they have a real purpose. They either want to attract a mate or they warn others of a threat. Probably even to call them all to eat. Humans, are from what I can gather, the only species I know of that dance like this, no purpose other to deride a small amount of joy and frivolity. However I don't think you're wrong about calling it a ritual. It's a social event. Humans are a very social kind of species. I suppose this can be called that."

"I like the way you think." Eric says to Izumi, then turns back to the dance floor to watch the carnage.
"My name is Eric Grimm."

Izumi stares at all the people and then turns back to Eric.
"Inaba, Izumi Inaba, nice to meet you."
Izumi then ponders as to what sort of greeting should be given and finally decides that the verbal seemed more than enough.

Eric looks over his shoulder into Inaba's eyes.
"What do you mean?' he said. "Do you think I am a nice person, or mean that it is nice to meet me whether I think it is or not; or that you feel good to meet me; or that it is a nice meeting?"

Re: [Open] On second thought.
Izumi realizes quite quickly that this person has no idea what the slightest pleasantry honestly means. This is going to make further communication difficult. It's perhaps too soon to say that there is a lack of social skills. Perhaps he's just not used to pleasantries.
"Um, it's just a polite phrase. I suppose one would take it anyone of those ways. In all honesty it's just something people say to a new person so that they could feel at ease."
[Also, having never watched that movie, I personally don't know what that person just referenced.]

Re: [Open] On second thought.
Eric stares at Izumi intently for a second or two.
"I see."
He turns back to watching the dance.
[It was Gandalf from the Hobbit!]
