[Even after being in Somarium for about a month or so, Euphie still wasn't quite accustomed to how things worked. Having things revert back to the 1920s a week or two after arriving certainly didn't help her confusion either.

And the whole dead people being brought back to life here aspect? Not the easiest pill to swallow, especially when your

Comments

[nolessthanseven]

Yeah, people just kind of sprout up around this time. It's how you know the month if you don't keep a calendar.

As far as the 'events'? Better get used to them. Not that we can ever predict the things.

[naivelysanguine]

That seems like a logical way to tell relative time.

[A smile.]

So, what happened last month, you're saying that such things occur often here - without warning? How troublesome. Have you been here long then?

Ah, and thank you for your assistance, Miss!

[nolessthanseven]

Exactly.

Yeah. A year, I guess. This pretty much happened when I first got here too. You get a little bit of warning - like things suddenly changing - but not a whole lot.

It's nothing.

[naivelysanguine]

A year? That's quite a long time. Do you have friends here with you?

Ah, I see. That's a bit better than no warning, I suppose.

Oh, where are my manners? I'm Euphemia li Britannia. It's a pleasure to meet you.

[nolessthanseven]

I've got one of my brothers and, yeah, I've made a couple friends.

It's true. You learn what the signs are eventually.

Isabelle Lightwood. Charmed.

[naivelysanguine]

That's lovely. I can't imagine it would be fun to be here without friends or family for so long.

How reassuring. Constantly worrying about such things would be difficult, to be sure.

[nolessthanseven]

Yeah. It's weird not having all my brothers, though.

Exactly. Of course, when I first got here, the entire place was slowly turning into a jungle. So it's still worrisome.

[naivelysanguine]

I know how you feel... [thinking of her only full sibling, her big sister, Cornelia...it hurt a bit.]

A-A jungle?! That certainly adds a new layer of worry, as well as one of confusion. Somarium is quite a strange place.

[nolessthanseven]

Got anyone around here?

Yeah. Then the dinosaurs showed up. [she's so nonchalant about it all.] And jungle cats and everything else that wants to kill you.

Somarium is, hands down, the weirdest place you'll ever go.

[naivelysanguine]

Yes. I've seen my younger sister and my Knight. Three more of my brothers are here as well, but I've yet to see them here...

[blink blink blink. how can you be so calm about dinosaurs?!] Truly? Oh my, how frightful that must have been! I'm certainly glad I've only just recently arrived then. [because really, HOW CAN YOU BE CALM ABOUT DINOSAURS and jungle cats and other killing machines?! *A*]

That certainly is an indisputable fact, I've come to realize.

[nolessthanseven]

You have a knight? Seriously?

[she shrugs. She kills demons for a living! Dinosaurs? Nothing.] It wasn't that bad. Kept me on my toes, that was for sure.

[and then she just grins.]

[naivelysanguine]

Yes. As a princess of the Holy Britannian Empire, it is my duty to choose my own personal knight.

Oh! You must be quite skilled in combat, then. That's very admirable.

[nolessthanseven]

You're a princess?

Yeah. Born and raised for combat - if I weren't good at it, I probably wouldn't be here.

sorry for the late! asfljska

[naivelysanguine]

That's right, in my home I am a princess. Although here I'm just another normal girl, or at least I hope to be.

It must be nice being able to look after yourself and be so independent.

don't worry~!

[nolessthanseven]

[well, at least she can acknowledge that her standing doesn't really have much bearing here. Izzy shrugs.] Might want to avoid mentioning the knight, then.

Totally. I don't think there's anything I can't do or get for myself. And if there is, there's probably a guy I can get to do it for me.

[naivelysanguine]

Ah, yes. I suppose you're right about that. It's just a bit of a habit, I suppose. [A sheepish grin followed by light laughter.]

Oh! That certainly is a nice perk of being a lady, having men to do all sorts of things for us.
