"[Eh? Why would anyone want to say this?] 'My ho-ver-craft is full of eels'."

"Your what?"

He was looking at a translator book for English to Japanese and back again. Yes, he'd taken classes and tried to keep up in his spare time, but he needed to give it a work-over every now and then to keep it all straight in his head. And then, he found this one line that had to be somebody's idea of a joke. How would this come up in conversation? There was just no way. Now, what was he doing? He was riding in a cab from the airport, having arrived in Delaware - after a lay-over in Pennsylvania for some reason - to join the Ravencroft Institute of Whatever Title They Happened To Be Working With. Honestly, Hakuro wasn't sure, himself. He'd been invited and given a good word by a friend of a friend who knew the place well. That was honestly how Hakuro Kuroda worked sometimes. He found himself in the right place and at the right time to take advantage of something and just...well...go for it!

"This translator. Is it a joke?"

"Your hovercraft is full of eels? Sounds like it. Anyway, we're here."

The cab pulled to a stop and he paid the man. Out of the trunk came a suitcase and another case. From the rear passenger's side of the cab came the figure of a Japanese young man of eighteen. He was black-haired, gray-eyed (oddly), and relatively good-looking...though these were not his most-noticable features, nor his casual attire. No, it was his hat-and-trenchcoat appearance - making him look like some sort of detective or investigator from some crime drama series - that stood out. This was a thing of his, because he was also known - in some circles - as Hatto Ken Ko-to, an information-collecting sort of guy who ends up looking around and seeking out strange or unique things. This international schooll was certainly the latter, as he now spread his arms out in a stretch, shouting in Japanese...

"[Hatto-san is HEEEERRRREEEE!!!]"

...before letting out a sigh and picking up his stuff. It was a long trip and he was actually quite laggy in the jet-sense. So...where was he going to officially sign up?
