first synthesis [action/voice]

[derpingly]

[Being half asleep and used to a set routine, the change in surroundings doesn't catch Rorona's attention at first, even if there's an obvious difference between an alchemy workshop and a house...maybe. Well, when you live in a world that resembles something like Victorian England during the Industrial Revolution...there's some differences, anyway

I doubt I am your master.

[derpingly]

Ah-! No, you're definitely not!

[wise_king]

Then why are you calling me that?

[derpingly]

I-I didn't realize this wasn't the workshop!

[derpingly]

So it's true, then. Why do I get in these sorts of messes? U-um!

[Wait that isn't Astrid she's speaking to.]

So this isn't Arland, right?

[derpingly]

Oh no...this is bad. What if they close the workshop while I'm gone!?

Then, um, do you know where we are?

[teutonictraitor]

A strange zhing to be calling someone you heff not even met, Frau. Anozher new one, I see?
But velcome to Mayfield--don't go near zhe men in gas masks unless you heff a desire to die.

[[This is as best of a welcome as he can do. Way to go Medic.]]

[derpingly]

I thought maybe Cory or Master would be around.

Eh? "Another new one"?

[teutonictraitor]

Friends of yours, I take it? Zhis town has very strange preferences in whom it pulls in, so you may see zhem here yet.

Ja. Again, zhe town pulls people in from ozher vorlds, und you are no different.
--Vhat is your name, hm? I am Medic.

[derpingly]

A-Ah! Well, Cory's my best friend, and Master's my teacher in alchemy! Even if she sleeps all day most of the time.

I'm Rorolina Frixell! But everyone calls me Rorona.

[expiatrice]

[She wasn't around the house much during all this mayhem. In fact she's resorted to sleep inside the Church, and the only reason why she came back here during the day was to check up on Merem.

Her steps stall when she feels an unfamiliar presence. She doesn't go in, and instead makes her way to the side of the house, to subtly peer in through an unobstructed window by the kitchen. That's where the noise was coming in from, at any rate.]

[derpingly]

[Coming back out into the kitchen after awhile.

Okay so if Astrid isn't here and Rorona is stuck here, maybe she can make some pies without alchemy.

...Even if the whole making pies through alchemy quest chain is hilarious. I was not aware there was such a thing as Tea Pie.]

[expiatrice]

[...

One way to make sure. Deftly and quietly, she makes her way to the second floor and breaks into her own room in her own house to check the picture frame.

Oh, so Matin's drone has been replaced. ...In a time like this? Goddamnit, Mayfield.

She changes quickly into her daily clothes, puts on her glasses, hiding her priestess robes away, and then makes her way back to the front entrance, and unlocks it like a normal person who just returned home. Unsuspecting, of course, since she was out all this morning, she didn't know that there's a new guest.

Kicking her shoes off by the entrance and tending to other stuff in the living room would be enough noise to make her presence known though, if nothing else.]

[derpingly]

[Well, she was going to bake a pie, but she hears the sound of someone else in the house, and, since you never know if Astrid is really around to pick on her, it's time to go investigate.

...Even if Rorona is still getting over the whole kidnapping thing.]

Um...hello?
