[The mirror opens to a scene early in the morning. Fela is near the orchard, the hills and the tops of the apple trees visible in the distance, small and quaint looking from this vantage point. There is a snake twined around one of her ankles, and when she turns at the sound of the blossoming mirror, her eyes are incredibly dark, her smile is dazed

[Well she had to come see the house; it was only rude to disrespect an obvious invitation]

[action]

[c_zacatechichi]

[It would be disrespectful! Truly it would, and Fela is waiting! She is stringing flowers peacefully, laid out in the sun in front of her little house. She hums a song that she does not remember learning, perhaps it is one of the Queen's choices, heard somewhere in the garden. Perhaps it is an old tune from her mother, she would not know.]

[border_phantasm]

Knock knock?

[Yeah, that was a horrible joke]

[action]

[c_zacatechichi]

[She never even realizes that it is meant to be a joke, but she looks up with a dreamy smile anyway.]

Hello. Have you come to visit?

[gravityfists]

[ Okay. Maybe I'm a little on the sleepy side, but.... what? Seriously, what? ]

Everything a-okay over there, Fela?

[c_zacatechichi]

Hmm? [She doesn't really seem to have heard the question, is much too busy looking into the mirror. She's talking to herself when she murmurs,] Who is this...

[She is trying to remember, but the face is unfamiliar and she's a little too stoned at the moment to immediately recall the note she's kept in her purse to remind her.]

[gravityfists]

Huh? Who am I? [ Oooh, right. I was getting my bat on, last time I spoke to her. ] It's Batgirl. Remember me? We had some intense hugging going on a while back.

video;

[c_zacatechichi]

[This seems to spark a proper amount of recognition in her. The bat-girl, she remembers that, and she closes her eyes briefly, smiling.]

Yes, that's right. Are you going to come visit me, Batgirl? I could hug you again.

[Grell will take her up on her offer, coming down to the house.]

It's beautiful...

/action/

[c_zacatechichi]

[Oh, Grell, she looks up from stringing flowers and is just beaming.]

Yes, very warm and comfortable. I'm so pleased.

[She gets up from the warm patch of clay out front.]

Will you come in? I can make tea.

/action/

[falterderleere]

That's very kind of you!

[Grell smiles back and follows her.]

I'm glad I can meet you in person.

/action/

[c_zacatechichi]

[She holds open the curtain to her home, offering the other woman a curious expression.]

Your voice seems familiar, have I spoken to you before?

[heart0fsword]

[Kenshin is now distinctly less scaly than the last time they saw each other, and she stops to pause before the strange (and new) little building]

[She didn't see the invitation across the vine... because that would require her to actually... use the vine...]

[But she does watch curiously from outside for a long minute in any case.]

[Action]

[c_zacatechichi]

[Less scaly indeed, and though Kenshin stands quietly, Fela is aware of her presence nearby. She turns to look, and with the sonando in her system, the other woman appears to her as if she is lit up from the inside by bright veins of color. Fela watches the way those energies shimmer and flex, smiling, dazed, but inviting.]

[Action]

[heart0fsword]

[Oh. Familiar face. She wasn't expecting to see you in there.]

...

Hello, Fela-san.

[Awe look... she has manners after all.]

[Action]

[c_zacatechichi]

[Finally some respect! Fela tilts her head slightly at the greeting before coming out to meet the other woman.]

Hello. Will you come inside? I have tea and so many fruits, if you'd like.

action;

[mellifluently]

[She comes to find her sister after she sees the message on the vine, curious to see the house as well as some small concern over the state the soñando has left her in. She knows, Fela can look after herself, but she is her only family here and they have to look out for each other. Coming up the hill to the house, she waits outside before calling for her sister.]

Fela?

action;

[c_zacatechichi]

[Fela comes to answer her, expression still dazed, but happy. She comes straight to Mahalia to wrap her up in a warm hug.]

Look, look what we have.

[Of course everything that Fela has she shares implicitly with her sister.]

action;

[mellifluently]

It's lovely.

[Not exactly what she was used to, but she understands Fela's life before was very different to her own.]

Where did you get the dirt?

action;

[c_zacatechichi]

[She doesn't answer, is too busy pulling Mahalia along into the house to stuff her little bird belly full of fruits.]
