[Lulu Sphere 005]

[the sphere turns on to lulu pacing at the edge of the forest, looking worried. the paranoia's gone and so are the pyreflies, but that doesn't give her the liberty to be at ease, especially when the happenings are starting to get odd. the fact that the front of her skirt--the heavy parts with all the belts--is gone and showing off a great deal of

[Regene is uncharacteristically serious.]

Or at least the passenger manifest knew we were coming.

[venussigil]

[With equal seriousness]

That would be just as troublesome. Would there be a way for us to see the list?

[storyofaneet]

Not without some lucky cooperation from the Captain.

[venussigil]

Think there's any way we could get that?

And do you remember being on the ship when it crashed?

[storyofaneet]

Hmmmm... not without some degree of motivation.

No. I awoke from my own world on the beach, not inside the ship.

[venussigil]

[starts thinking of what could motivate the commander to share the passenger manifesto]

That's curious. I wonder if the passengers who were on the ship have any memories of us being there as well.

[storyofaneet]

People seemed to be surprised to see me, when I arrived. I doubt that would be the case, had they seem me already.

[venussigil]

True. Most others seemed unfamiliar with me as well.

Interesting that we would then have been reported as being on the ship the entire time.

[storyofaneet]

Or so the Captain says.

[venussigil]

He might be interested in knowing that some people have never been on the ship, despite the manifesto. We could use that in getting more information.

[trails off, lost in thought]

[storyofaneet]

If the Captain is interested in what we believe.

[venussigil]

When you put it that way...

But there would be physical evidence, if we had been on the ship for awhile. If we could find a way in.

[storyofaneet]

Do you think you could? Find a way in, that is.

[venussigil]

[pushes up her sleeves, and makes a mental inventory of her spells] I could try at least. No guarantees that it wouldn't be messy.

[storyofaneet]

Messy doesn't seem like a problem at the moment.

[venussigil]

In that case...

[she walks towards the beach from her place in the forest.]

I'll just have to see what kind of resistance it has to magic.
