[Knock knock asshole it's ya boi.
No, really, Hajime is just... knocking on Gundam's door. Maybe he's not here? But he figured he might as well check. He's hiding something behind his back, which definitely isn't suspicious at all.]

[It takes Gundam a moment to open the door-- as he was not expecting visitors. Actually in the entire month he's been here he hasn't had a single visitor.
Which of course was fine! He is a being who only desires silence and callousness--]
Kekeke.... I knew you would come.
[He definitely did not.]

...Right.
[Somehow, I don't believe you.]
Uh... are you busy? Can I come in? I found something I want to show you.
[It's still out of sight behind his back. What could it be?!]

Your timing is most fortuitous!
I was tending to the bindings of my wicked arm. The curses from my Devas upon my flesh have sealed now, it is safe to enter my realm.
[Gundam gestures Hinata in with a freshly bandaged arm. His hamsters have been getting more than a little rowdy these days and fighting more often as a result.]

Wh-- they bit you?!
[Even as he steps inside, Hajime can't help but look on with concern. Shit, he'd assumed the bandages were just part of his chuunibyou ImageTM, not something he actually needed.]
Are you okay?

[Don't say it like that??? They're good hams, Hajime??]
Is that so unreasonable?
Trapped here in the depths of space with no inkling of their purpose nor anything to positively stimulate them?
Of course their fear and unhappiness would eventually rear its head, lashing out to strike against even their most beloved master.
[Although. Hinata was always pretty level headed aside from occasionally blacking out when overwhelmed so perhaps he can't relate.]

I didn't realize...
[He was about to call them hamsters again, but decides to just trail off, taking a moment to look around Gundam's room now that he's in here. It seems kind of strange that Gundam was just in his room, and he hasn't taken a look around here?? Rude tbh. Not protag-like at all.]
Maybe this will help? I found it in the mess hall with some other things, and I thought if anyone could use it...
[He did come here for a reason, though, bringing his hand around from behind his back to hold out a basic hamster wheel. It's a present. Give him an FTE!!]

[Gundam doesn't have really... any experience when it comes to deliberately trying to befriend someone -- except Hajime actively trying to befriend him.
He'd completely forgotten about his habit of presenting gifts. Like tiny trojan horses! Passing through the most secure barriers to unleash his friendship upon the most adverse and unsuspecting!
...OF COURSE.]

[Gundam reaches for the hamster wheel, as if Hajime has presented him with a most sacred and malevolent treasure from the depths of Cocytus itself.]
Fuaha-- HAHAHA! Splendid!
Rise my Four Dark Devas of Destruction! You have an offering from the singularity!

[Gundam places it down for them and they begin to take turns running to their hearts content. So. Mostly just Maga-Z and San-D.
Wow it's even one of the nice, safe free standing plastic ones. Not too big or small to strain their little backs.
Even with no memories formed with Gundam to recall, the Singularity has yet to truly disappoint!]
Perhaps there is hope for you as a tamer of beasts yet.

[That sure is lucky that it's a good hamster wheel, because Hajime wouldn't know what size to get them. Obviously the bigger the wheel, the bigger the fun??
Hajime can't help but grin, a little pleased at the compliment even as he shakes his head.]
I wouldn't go that far... like I said, I just found it. Is it okay to go closer to them to watch?
[He kind of wants to sit on the floor and play with the hamsters, now that he's here. He's... trying to reach out. It still feels kind of awkward, since, well, Gundam is still SHSL Talented, but after those long, sleepless days, when Gundam hadn't seen fit to toss him aside, he kind of feels like he owes the guy a chance.
Or, well, feels like he owes it to himself not to blow this chance.]

[He'd start Hajime out small anyways. His magic level is still capped at a trashy five.
Regardless of the mysterious circumstances of the hamster wheel's arrival in the station, Gundam's still pleased that Hajime thought to present it as an offering to him and the Dark Devas.
Gundam can't recall receiving many gifts in his life... at least not until recently. A small sacrifice from an odd vending machine was capable of so much in the hands of the Singularity.]

You have all borne a contract with me, there is no reason why my closest minions can not all intermingle!
[Gundam will sit on the floor first, gesturing for Hinata to join him.]
I see in your exploits here you have ascended beyond the realm of hermit crabs at least.
Despite it's perceived faults, this station seems to be superior to Jabberwock Island in more ways than one.
[The lack of wild beasts on any of the islands was truly despair inducing.
Well. That. And the murder. But.]

Uh... right.
[He will join Gundam on the floor, though he still doesn't know how he feels about being described as a "minion"... on the same level as hamsters, nonetheless!! Then again, Gundam clearly loves these little hairballs, so maybe it's meant as a compliment.]
How did you know about...? Oh, it's... something we talked about before? My elementary school class?
[How the hell did that come up?! But more importantly,] What's Jabberwock Island, like, a nature preserve?
[A really bad one?]

[It is a compliment, Hajime!]
Indeed. Our fated first meeting.
Though you were frightened by my overwhelming power, you fought through your fear to courageously approach me. I'm sure every fiber of your being insisted you turn back, but you pressed forward.
There I was... being challenged by a mortal being? Though I could smite you down in an instant I decided to honor your courage and grace you with my name!
You came without armor or a weapon -- then I learn you had not even mastered the care of a familiar! I could only be amused! To think that a being with such a low magic essence would dare to approach me and my Four Dark Devas of Destruction!
It was laughable! Perhaps the most entertainment I'd had in over a thousand years! A most memorable and enjoyable day!

...
[I don't think that's how it went at all...
Let's just move right along, huh? He offers a hand for one of the hamsters -- which one is which again?! -- to sniff, as if it's a dog. He doesn't... really know how to approach hamsters, after all.]
What... makes it so bad?

[Cham-P can sense Hajime's hesitation, but he's already very familiar with him. He's about to go up to Hajime and rub against his hand as an invitation to pet him -- but Gundam signals for him to wait.]
First you must clear your mind of all insidious thoughts. Then gently say the incantation...
Good boy... good boy...

It's-- [Gundam frowns. This Hajime had yet to experience the horrors of Jabberwock Island. Maybe it's even possible that he never would in his timeline. Gundam's the only being here who had to endure it. Perhaps it's simply better not to speak of it...]
Inconsequential.
...
Kekeke... I am a being forged from brimstone and the depths of darkness of the netherworld itself.
What interest would I have in any form of "paradise?"

I-Incantation... right.
[He tries to exchange an incredulous glance with Cham-P, realizes that he's trying to exchange an incredulous glance with a hamster of all things, and has to question several things that led him to this point in his life. Anyway, he can't help but feel a little self-conscious as he repeats the incantation, holding his hand out again.
...Wait, hang on, something seems contradictory.]
I... thought you said it was a hell on earth, not a paradise at all.

[Cham-P returns Hajime's incredulous glance, with a relaxed expression. He's not judging you Hajime, there's no reason to be self-conscious. c:]
I-I.
I said it was a "hell on earth disguised as a mortal's paradise!"
An utter lack of magical beasts to master? Surrounded on all sides by the accursed ocean? The unyielding assault of UV rays?
Hah! All things designed to entertain the interests of insignificant mortal beings!
There was no reason for me to be there with the others at all! For I am a being who desires nothing more in this world than silence and solitude!

[--He's goin for it. He's gonna try to gently pat the top of Cham-P's head with the tip of his index finger.]
Uh... right.
[I'm pretty sure that's wrong...]
So what were you doing there in the first place? Is that where we met?
[If Gundam thought he didn't belong, surely Hajime would have belonged even less.]

[Cham-P is very receptive to Hajime's pats. Since he already knows him, it's just a matter of Hajime being at ease.
Gundam looks pleased as well.]
The fruition of a contract with the Invading Black Dragon? Kekeke... you would do well to have him at your side in battle.

It was to be our first day as classmates at Hope's Peak. However, when the fated last member of our sixteen member coven traversed through the threshold-- calamity befell us all. A most un-cute anthropomorphic being had ensnared us in it's trap. The very fabric of time and space was torn asunder, the classroom shifting to an island before our very eyes.
[This is actually what happened.]
