[ Lady sits quietly on the low stone wall outside of House Seven, watching the night time foot traffic through the city. She herself appears to be a fourteen year old girl with blonde hair and brown eyes, but that is only what she thinks herself to be; as that was how she looked upon her death ( Read more... )

Hey...is everything alright?

[video/teneka] maidofbones May 12 2011, 17:53:55 UTC

[She shakes her head, wiping her eyes with the back of her hand.]

I cannot find my troupe, I do not think they are in the city. [Sniff.] Why would they leave without me...

[video/teneka] rainbowfishing May 12 2011, 19:17:26 UTC

Most of my friends aren't here either. [Wibbling. Please don't make her cry too.] If it's really hard to face, just face it later.

[video/teneka] maidofbones May 12 2011, 21:07:47 UTC

Later. [Lady repeats that softly. She is already wrapped up in layers of delusions and lies, all of reality left for later.]

Do you think they will come back for me?

[The eyes of a child: lie to me. Tell me it will be all right.]

[video/teneka] rainbowfishing May 12 2011, 21:29:27 UTC

Sometims things are just...too much at one time. You need time to focus on the things that you have to do right now.

[She has practice at this. She lives in her little world of sugar and rainbows and only cries when it rains, holding in all her horrible secrets.]

I'm sure they will! I mean, Snow and I showed up and we just missed Hope. Do you want me to help you look, just in case?

[video/teneka] maidofbones May 12 2011, 21:39:17 UTC

[Lady looks a little doubtful. What she should be doing is practicing her dancing, taking fliers around the city, helping mend costumes...]

You would look for them with me? I feel like I've already looked everywhere...

[video/teneka] rainbowfishing May 13 2011, 08:16:39 UTC

Of course I would. I mean, after all, we have to help each other out while we're here. And it might not turn anything up but...it still won't hurt.

[Vanille tries her best hopeful smile, then one she always used when she had to cajole Hope or Sazh.]

[video/teneka] maidofbones May 13 2011, 17:55:47 UTC

[Lady smiles at her, that does sound nice to her, that she not to be left on her own, even if the circus has lost her.]

I would like that very much, if it does not trouble you, Miss...?

[video/teneka] rainbowfishing May 13 2011, 19:48:54 UTC

It's not any trouble at all. I'm Vanille, what's your name?

[video/teneka] maidofbones May 14 2011, 01:19:24 UTC

Hello, Vanille.

[She dips her head politely.]

My name is Lady.

[It isn't, there is a buzz in the back of her mind insisting as much, but she ignores it, just shifts her shoulders uncomfortably and looks down.]

[video/teneka] rainbowfishing May 14 2011, 08:20:47 UTC

That's a really pretty name! Do you want me to come just now?

[Because Vanille isn't really doing much and she's not used to not being on the move.]

[video/teneka] maidofbones May 14 2011, 19:31:27 UTC

[She considers it, but the note of disquiet inside of her is... Something she would like to distract herself from. She nods, hopping down off the wall, brushing off her white skirts briefly, wiping her eyes.]

I can come to meet you.

[video/teneka] rainbowfishing May 14 2011, 21:29:27 UTC

Great!

[Don't mind that little fist pump - she's channeling Snow because he's here and he's the most upbeat and optimistic of the l'Cie off to save Cocoon.]

I'll be outside house eighteen.

[action] maidofbones May 14 2011, 23:27:14 UTC

[She does not know her way around the city very well, but she also is not shy to ask for directions and the local residents of the city are really quite pleasant to her.

She makes it to the house and dips into a polite little curtsy for Vanille. She was raised by nuns for a while, she likes being polite.]

[action] rainbowfishing May 15 2011, 09:03:48 UTC

[True to her word, Vanille is outside, fiddling with the little disc she still has from the Pompa Sancta but she slips it away when she sees Lady and beams.

Vanille has no curtsy - it'd be unwise in her clothing to even try and she doesn't want to flash her l'Cie brand to the world - but a big smile and a wave.]

Hey! What way d'you want to start looking in?

[action] maidofbones May 15 2011, 17:09:27 UTC

We are close to the water.

[That is Lady's suggestion, perhaps then they can continue on to the south where the city opens up to trees and greenery. The circus needed room to spread itself out, if they were hiding anywhere, that would be the place.]

There are gypsies in our caravan, who long for the beaches all year round. They may have made their camp there.

[She has already looked several nights before. She knows she has, but she will look again until she deludes herself into believing something new.]
