Log - Day 3 (exploring.)

[n_shirogane]

[ Naoto is wandering the grounds of Paradisa, still trying to familiarize herself with its layout.

She's still kind of overwhelmed by everything, so she didn't exactly take note of the way to get back to her room. After about a half hour of going in circles, she gives up and pulls out her journal and a pen. ]Hello. This is Naoto Shirogane. I seem

[hermonkeyman]

Hell, sure! What do you need?

[n_shirogane]

I'd like to find my way back to my room.

[hermonkeyman]

Okay, where are you? I can be down in half a microsecond.

[n_shirogane]

[ gets distracted ] A microsecond?

[hermonkeyman]

Half a microsecond.

[n_shirogane]

[ confused ] Is this... a figure of speech?

[hermonkeyman]

Depends on where you are, kiddo.

[n_shirogane]

I'm near a pond. It's in the forest somewhere.

[n_shirogane]

[ slightly miffed at being called "kiddo." ]

[hermonkeyman]

[He can't help that you're a baby to him!]

Well, that's not much to go on. Might take me a couple of minutes to search the forest.

[n_shirogane]

[ She just doesn't like being considered a kid at all. ]

Minutes. [ she's still impressed. ] Oh, but certainly, I don't wish to be a bother.

[hermonkeyman]

[Sorry, kid. He's just like that.]

Don't worry. Ain't like I got anything else useful to do with my time.

[n_shirogane]

If it isn't any trouble.

[hermonkeyman]

Not a bit. Hold on a sec.

[true to his word, it does take a couple of minutes-- well, maybe more like ten-- before he shows up on the other bank of the pond, and speeds over to her, impossibly fast.]

You the kid looking for help?

[n_shirogane]

[ she bristles a little bit, but restrains herself. ] I believe I am.

That was quick.

[hermonkeyman]

[grins and shrugs a shoulder up]

I'm fast on my feet. Emmett Cullen, by the way. [gives a little wave]
