[The way he asks these questions... it reminds her of a lot of people who are new to the town.
So she's quiet for a moment as she looks him over, and then she hops up on the counter where the register used to be, leaning back on her hands.]
No, they're pretty weird. My world's filled to the brim with regular old humans doing their regular old thing.
But the town I come from is pretty special. It's become a gathering place for both humans and youkai--that's non-human creatures with powers, for the American in the room.
[She hums, kicking her legs idly.]
A lot of those youkai were persecuted for being different, or treated badly, or shunned as outcasts, but in that town, they can go to school and make friends and have a job and everything like that. That's what the mayor and her group do. We try to protect that treasured sense of being "regular", or "normal".
