He was slowly making his way through the new island, puzzling out the case and looking for Bastet as he went, and he was half-surprised to see a familiar figure on the beach. He took his time to reach her, waiting until he was standing near her to speak.
"Hey, Luce."

"Howdy."

The little girl walked along the beach, a basket of pastries cradled close to her. Shoes tapped against the boardwalk, the wind ruffling her dress and petticoat and sticking sand to the fine tulle. The barest smile.
She never spoke to strangers, but this other girl seemed just as old as she.
"Hello Miss and hello Sir." She greeted shyly. "Are you new to Rivelata? Did you just arrive by ship?"

Sora sighed and stopped. Wait. There was another guy. In a suit. He didn't look familiar at all. Sora tentatively walked forward and sat in the sand near the people - but not too near. He didn't say anything, because for once he had no words.
Instead, he traced stars in the sand.

"Yeah," Sora said to the sand, "the beach reminds me of home. Does it remind you of something?"
It was a weird way to phrase a question, but Sora had learned that it was usually better to ask strange questions that didn't make sense to the person than have them totally confused by the end of an explanation. Maybe he'd get it totally right one of these times, but Sora guessed he hadn't yet. It was an eggshell topic anyway. He probably should have left it alone.
Too late now. He couldn't take the words back.
