It's a rather quaint town when you get down to it. At least, that's what the Sheriff would argue. Warm and dry in the mornings and afternoons with a brisk coolness in the evenings. The perfect type of weather to just sit out on your rocking chair and observe the comings and goings.
... Of course, there's not much in the way of comings and goings when there aren't any actual people here to watch. Nevertheless, don't let that get you down! The town is your oyster and those roosters won't stop crowing until everyone's out of bed. Up and at 'em, rise and shine, it's time to make the day yours!
After all, there's nothing wrong with the town today and you might just want to savor it while it lasts.

Am I normal...? [He pauses, before he smiles; it's a tad more somber than his usual smug look, though.] Ha... depends on who you ask. Well, for all of my talk, what's "normal" is pretty subjective.
[Really, he just doesn't want to give a straight answer to that question, in part for pragmatic reasons and in part because he doesn't want to have to examine himself in that regard.]
And in this case, it depends on what kind of people have been brought here.
It ... is? I always thought... everyone else was normal. [ She finishes the thought somewhat lamely after that brief hesitation, abruptly changing course in her words. She gives her head a little shake, then tilts it curiously. ]
[Shinnosuke's quick at counting at a glance, so he took a moment to figure this out when he could.]
Excluding Mr. Sheriff and the people in the prison, forty. Guess that means I've befriended everyone here but you, huh?
[... He gets the feeling that Xion's actually taking him seriously so he should stop this right now before she starts thinking he's some kind of friendship machine, but.]
Why? I mean, you don't seem so bad to me. You don't want friends?
[ Again, all of this is said without an ounce of intent to insult or mock. She's completely sincere. This is what happens when you tangle with a Disney princess, buddy. ]
You don't know me very well, either. [ Said very mildly. At least, till she shakes her head and gets a determined look back on. ]
Isn't that even more reason we should all get to know one another? To try and stop those things from happening. Even if we end up hurt, or betrayed... isn't it important that we tried?

Abruptly she laughs, the sound of it quiet. ]
You know, if I'd ever heard that back home, I would have been so happy. Right now, it doesn't help at all. So ... does this mean you're not normal?
[ the question seems to be a genuine one, given her tone and the thoughtful look on her face. ]

Have you met many of the others yet?

That's ... that's a lot! I've never had that many friends before. Um, how many of us are even here?

I'll be your friend.
[ it's too late shinnosuke you've done this to yourself ]

I'm just joking. Please don't say that sort of thing—it makes me sick.

Haha, I don't seem so bad? You don't know me very well, then—though maybe I shouldn't be admitting things like that right now.
But there's no way I'd want friends, especially in a place where we may very well be expected to betray one another.

Okay. If you change your mind, I'll be around.

I won't.
