first pirouette ❥ ( video )

[waltzhagen]

[ Before the mirror now is a girl, obviously flustered and extremely flushed. She wearily stands, possibly more confused than she's ever been. For her, that's saying something. ]

Uhm...! Is this how to call the Queen? I've asked these cats a lot of questions and they gave me lots of scrolls but I still don't understand this dream.

[ She holds

Comments

[jemerite]

The cats are not very clever.

[Her voice is wry. The truth of the matter is mostly that Zinc just doesn't get along with them very well.]

[waltzhagen]

I don't mind the cats, it's the scrolls that confused me. This dream seems really complicated!

[jemerite]

[She puts her chin into her hand, looking a little bored,]

What do the scrolls say?

[She'd never bothered to read it, personally.]

[waltzhagen]

Well, uhm, this one [ She struggles to rearrange the ones she's carrying enough to open one of them. ] says something about vines and then there was one about rules and houses and all kind of stuff! I've never had a dream that had rules before! Or was this pretty...

[jemerite]

Complicated maybe, and nonsense.

[Zinc wasn't sure she subscribed to the 'dream' idea, but she couldn't precisely disprove it either.]

[waltzhagen]

Yeah, that's what I think too! I guess I should just enjoy the nice scenery before waking up. I shouldn't take this all too seriously, yeah!

Oh, so who are you? What are you doing here? [ Being here in her head, she means. ]

[jemerite]

[She gives the girl an amused look.]

No way to leave, might as well enjoy it.

[That was her feeling, anyway.]

I'm called Zinc, I have been brought by the Queen, like you. Twice now.

[waltzhagen]

Really? The Queen must really want you to be here. Is it fun here? What are we building?

[jemerite]

[She's incredulous about the Queen really wanting her here.]

I have made friends here. Sometimes I think this is what she wants, but she doesn't say.

[She gives a vague little hand motion.]

The magic here... makes things ridiculous, sometimes.

[waltzhagen]

Oh so we're building...friendships! Queen-sama can't be all the bad if she wants us all to be friends. [ Kidnapping aside and such. ]

Ah, if it will help us out, we can be friends if you'd like, Zinc-san! I'm Haine!

[jemerite]

[Oh wow... you are insufferably cheerful. Zinc carries on looking unconvinced.]

Forcing people together is not appreciated.

[waltzhagen]

No, I guess not...But maybe if we make enough friends, we can get out!

[jemerite]

[Blink blink.]

...Maybe. It sounds like her.

[Irritating crazy woman...]

[waltzhagen]

Yeah! That's why we should be friends. And after you make enough, you can go home!

[jemerite]

Yes, yes...

[She remains unconvinced that 'friendship' is that easy.]

[waltzhagen]

[ She would extend her hand or something, but you know. The whole mirror thing. ]

I'm Haine and I hope that we can get along well while we're here!
