NEXT CYCLE - The 1st Day of June; [action/voice]

[For those of you walking by the plaza today, there's a New Feather the midst, though you wouldn't know it by the behavior. She is neither confused nor panicked by the sudden situation, choosing instead to perch herself quietly on the edge of the fountain, journal open beside her as she listens to the voices trickle through from it.

[He hasn't yet noticed the picture in the frame... but somehow the voice sounds familiar...]

It depends on when you left, I guess. [And now he looks, curiosity getting the better of him. That red hair, those blue eyes, that face... he knew her.] ...Rena?

[Voice]

[flower_of_hell]

[She glances at his picture, and her face brightens at the sight. Someone familiar. At last. She wasn't alone.

She smiles at the feed from the journal. It's tired, exhausted, really...but it's genuine.]

...Hi, Adell-kun.

[Voice]

[vulcanblazer]

[...He finds it impossible not to return that smile, though it's not as broad as one might expect. He can see her fatigue, but has no idea what it might be from.

But she remembers. That in itself... a huge stroke of good fortune.]

Rena... it's good to see you again. Did you just arrive?

[Voice]

[flower_of_hell]

Not too long ago...I'm just at the fountain.

[Listening. Watching. Waiting for someone, though she's not sure who.]

[Voice]

[vulcanblazer]

[Adell nods.]

...You think you're going to be there long? ...Or I guess, what I'm saying is, would you like me to come see you?

[voice]

[flower_of_hell]

...It'd be nice to see you again. We haven't met in a long time, right?

[Voice]

[vulcanblazer]

Way too long. I'll be right there!

[And he gets up, gathering his stuff and making sure to grab a spare coat in case she might need it. He'll be heading for the fountain right quickly.]

[Voice]

[flower_of_hell]

[She'll be there when he come by, still perched on the edge in her New Feather dress. But she brightens upon seeing Adell, and lifts a hand to attempt to wave cheerfully at him.

Attempt. It's noticeably lacking her usual enthusiasm.]

[Voice]

[vulcanblazer]

[He bolts toward the fountain when he sees her wave. He notices it's not as powerful as it normally would be, but... it could be the cold too. Either way, he comes right up to her and beams her a big smile.]

Rena! It's... it's good to see you again. [He's still surprised to see her again, honestly...] You cold? I brought an extra jacket.

[Voice]

[flower_of_hell]

[She can't help but smile back.]

Hahaha...I guess I am a little cold.
