Another rises from the ashes.

[projectio]

Uaaa... This place is pretty neat. Some kind of, uhm...? Hans would know the word. Something. Not Atria, but nothing I've seen before, either...

[ She grins. ] Wait 'til Annette hears about this.

[ Oh, by the way, her left arm is in a sling. ... yeah. ]

[At this point, Kougaiji is used to randomly ending up in places with absolutely no clue as to how or why he's shown up there. He crosses his arms and looks around, and if he's at all impressed, he's not showing it.]

So. Where's this?

[projectio]

I have no idea. Well, maybe a few... What about you?

[onetrueprince]

[Headtilt]

I have no idea. If I did, I wouldn't have asked. [He doesn't say it in a snappish way. Just stating fact. Typical Kougaiji.] What "few" ideas do you have?

[projectio]

It could be a dream! Most likely, most boring. Someone could have been messing with the boundaries between the dimensions, but that would take a lot of power, and I have no idea why they'd mold reality into something like this even if they did.

[misguidedstorm]

[Sloane, however, isn't used to randomly ending up places at all. So, after appearing... he immediately freaks out and starts looking around wildly.]

U-u-uuhhhm...

[projectio]

... Hi.

[misguidedstorm]

[He definitely didn't see her there. So, he jumps about a foot off the ground as he whirls around to face her.]

Gah!! ... A-ah, hi. [Wide-eyed look]

[projectio]

[ ... she laughs. ]

Hi.

[notruejudge]

[And have a random...tall guy in full plate armor. For the hell of it.]

[He's holding his helm beneath one arm, and there's a deep scar across his left eyebrow. After looking around for a moment, he notices her and nods.]

Another of these. I had thought to be done with them.

[projectio]

[ Short chick in casual wear tilts her head back to see Basch properly. At least it's not the seven-foot-blue-haired-woman.

She nods back. ]

"These"? You know what it is?

[notruejudge]

I have found myself in...similar situations, as of late. From the look of it, I believe you have little to fear, my lady.

[projectio]

[ She smiles and blushes a bit at the 'my lady'. Fffft. Not as much as in the icon, but hey. ]

W-what kind of similar situations?

[tiltedwindmills]

[And because he needs a bit of dusting-off, have a Laguna. Whoooo's currently on his ass.]

Hey-ow! What the...?

[projectio]

[ ... and Aoi is trying not to laugh. ]

A-are you okay?

[tiltedwindmills]

What? Oh! Yeah, fine. [He hoists himself to his feet, perhaps a bit more slowly than he would have a few decades ago, but then again he's still pretty sprightly for a guy heading straight into middle age.]

Never better. Except for the, uh...

[A puzzled look]

What is this place?

[projectio]

If you say so...~

I don't know yet! Just found myself here, too.

[mutedseraph]

[!!! New person! She peeks out at Aoi from behind a column, wings fluttering.

She knows Hans?]

[projectio]

[ It takes her a moment to notice, but when she does, it's because of the fluttering she keeps hearing. Cue jaw-drop. ]

Are those...?

[mutedseraph]

[Her wings twitch, but calm down otherwise.

She makes a familiar, but personalized gesture. "Hans...?"]

[projectio]

[ Oh my gosh this girl has wiiiings *___*

It takes her a moment to realize the motion was sign language, but she gets it. ]

O-oh, yeah. My friend! Hans.
