After a few curt texts with both Tear and Anise, Peony had opted to head out of the large home he had found in Somni when he noticed the storm was starting to lessen. He had promised the young girl that he would try and find Ion, and considering communication was limited, it felt like his duty to go out and search for the Fon Master, if only for a short period of time everyday
( ... )
The call had Sanji twisting towards the voice. Even with pretty blond hair and obvious good looks, at least it was more obvious this was a man. Still, deep down it irked him somewhat that men around this world were so...He grimaced throughout the rest of that internal thought.
"Ah, Ah...I'm alright now." He brushed it off with a casual wave. "I just wish I know what the hell just happened. Tch, even my pockets have sand." Dust came off in a fine mist as he patted himself down. "I'm guessing your house got knocked down, too?"
Peony gave a casual shake of his head as he moved to shake out the scarf. It had begun to collect dust and was become increasingly uncomfortable to wear. For the time being, he figured, he could spare not having it on.
"It's standing, but in pretty bad shape," he explained, hand coming to rest on his hip as a sad smile spread over his visage. "Just started getting comfortable there, too, then this happens." A long sigh before he stepped over, inspecting the fallen cottage with a frown. "Are they all like this?"
He hadn't explored too much of Espoir as of yet, and part of him was reluctant to do so. How many people were trapped... killed?
Another person who didn't seem to care if they were stuck here or not. The blond merely gave a light shake to his head over that. There was no use questioning it anymore.
"If you mean destroyed; I don't know. I know my neighbor had the same shitty experience, but I haven't had a chance to scout around." There was nothing in the immediate area that showed how others fared; a frown marred his features at that. The howling in the background didn't help his thoughts either.
"That sound hasn't stopped since it happened. We should start looking around and see what we can find." It was an invitation, but at the same time if the man wanted to do things on his own Sanji wouldn't stop him either.
Peony's gaze swept over the debris before settling back on the other blond. He said nothing for a second before stepping over to what appeared to have once been a door handle. He frowned at the destructive might, resisting the urge to shudder at the mere thought of the storm doing such damage on a person. Any and all vulgar, explicit thoughts threatened to enter his mind, but he batted them away in favour of his own sanity.
"The noise is louder in Somni," Peony agreed, bringing his hand up to scratch behind his head. Absently, his foot gave a slight prod to another pile, watching it in dismay as it collapsed a fraction more.
"Don't know what it is, but I just hope it stays out there," he concluded and looked back to the other man, a rare spark of seriousness in his eyes. "Yeah, let's move."
That was a good indicator to just avoid the city for now. Escape or no, it wouldn't be very wise for them to head towards the strange sounds, or the insane sandstorm that continued to brew in the distance.
Sanji wasn't afraid; he'd experience worse things than strange sounds and sand, but that didn't mean he was stupid enough to gamble his life away while he was here.
"Any good suggestions for where to start looking?"

"Dunno. I guess around the village is a good idea for now."
All things considered, it seemed like the safest spot at the moment. The sounds were the farthest in the 'heart' of this strange land, and there was less of a chance of buildings crumbling and falling on your head as you walked.
"I heard something on," Peony began, digging out the Dreamberry to give it a slight wave, "this thing about a place around here being pretty safe. Don't know if we should check that out or not." He looked contemplative for a moment before pocketing once more.
It's okay :3 *huggles*blacklegcookSeptember 8 2009, 16:37:52 UTC
"Oh?" His own Dreamberry had been on the fritz. Messages cut in and out and though he saw how some people were able to create messages; the blond had yet to find which button actually did that. Then again, with what was going on around them there really wasn't much time to be fiddling with shitty technology.
"Alright, we'll head their first. What's it called?" He pulled out his own Dreamberry to scroll for the place once he had the name.
