a bit of a shock

[miro_zenador]

He hits the ground hard; it is impossible to tell quite where he's fallen from, but it's far enough to knock the wind out of him for a few moments

"I am, as are you, by the looks of it. Is there anything you require?" Admetus asks gently, not leaning too close.

"I meant," Miro starts, and has to stop again, and gives it up. He scrubs a hand across his face, and picks himself up slowly.

"Do you need food, sir, or drink?"

[miro_zenador]

"No, I--" He gets a breath, and a look around him. "I think I'm lost," understatement of the year.

"Hey, hey," Fletcher says, all rough teenage concern as he vaults over the rail of the porch, "Take it easy."

He drops into an easy crouch at Miro's side, wrists hanging off his knees. "What about humans? Did you hurt yourself?"

[miro_zenador]

He blinks in startlement, and picks himself up cautiously. "Don't think so. Where--"

[peaceourcargo]

"Well," Fletcher says, "It's a planet. I think it's probably Earth."

Sheepish lanky teenager. "I'm not sure, though. I've only seen Earth in simulations."

This earns him an odd look. "Yeah?"

*Esmeralda, being a kind sort, immediately goes to help upon seeing someone fallen to the ground. She kneels down beside him, the coins in her hair jingling slightly* Are you all right?

[miro_zenador]

He looks up at her, dazed, for a moment thinking she's come after him-- but she's not, she's a stranger, which in itself is strange. "I--"

*Unfortunately for Miro, he's being found by a rather energetic teenager girl with a glowing gold ball in one hand* Yes, I'd think so. You do look human, at least.

"It's not," he starts, irritably, and then stops, startled. The glow doesn't actually faze him particularly, but he's never seen anyone with hair like that in person. Which means that either there are yet more unwelcome visitors, or he's not at all where he thought he was.
