Wanderlast

[wanderlastmoon]

She arrives in a flash of light but that's the only disturbance she causes to the world she wanders to with her arrival. Just a sudden flash of light, which has an artificial feeling to it and is gone in a second. It may attract people's curiosity, or they can just shrug it off. She doesn't stay there thought

Fortunately it's a blond Usagi who sees the new arrival. This avoids the issue of people around them seeing double, or whether she suddenly has a twin.

"Ah... why don't we go look for them together?" She gives a smile that's just a bit too bright, because she really needs to bring this girl out of the way somewhere they can talk privately.

[wanderlastmoon]

She wasn't programmed to recognize alternates, though she will definitively learn after this meeting thanks to her AI. But in her world she didn't exist until she was created, no one expected an artificial being having an alternate existence in other worlds, she's artificial after all.

She nods calmly and serene; "Please, guide me to them. It's important." And she settles to follow this girl who has offered her even the faintest clue of where she could find her masters' alternates.

[buntails]

Usagi leads the way out of the way. Once they're away from where they'd be noticed (it doesn't occur to her to be careful with an alternate), she drops her bomb of information.

"I'm Tsukino Usagi. It's nice to meet you. You're also Usagi-chan, right?"

[wanderlastmoon]

Usagi just blinks. She wasn't prepared for this but she adapts quickly, though it leaves her staring for a moment.

"My model number is U54G1 T5UK1N0;" she replies, giving the exact sequence of numbers and letters. "Usagi Tsukino informally." Because calling her every time with the letters and numbers is a pain even for her creator and masters.

"Please, guide me to your masters, it's important;" because this one must be an artificial being too. Usagi Tsukino is a being created by her masters, it can't exist on her own, right?

"What's gotten into you?" Endymion shoots this version of the princess a rather bemused look. This is certainly a new one, and that's impressive when he's seen as many Usagis and Serenitys as he has.

[wanderlastmoon]

Usagi blinks slowly at him, looking at him with attention before she smiles; "Master Endymion! Are you feeling well today?" She asks, her posture keeping a calm and serene one though her voice seems to acquire a more eager tone for a moment.

But she has a mission, she can't just leave it at that; "Master Endymion, I have a message from another world. Will you listen to it?"

[aroyal_pain]

"Why are you suddenly so formal?" He can't quite imagine it from any version of her. But Endymion nods anyway, and promises to hear Usagi out.

"You know I'll listen to anything you have to say."

[wanderlastmoon]

She tilts her head; "Would you prefer for me to be more intimate with you?" The question is accompanied by her taking a step closer to him, inviting but still respectful and formal though it may be noticeable that she uses the word 'intimate' instead of 'familiar' as an opposite of 'formal'. After all, at first she was supposed to be a dating partner with the duty of pleasing whoever her company was. Even if it's Endymion's alternate, even if she does recognize him as a master, if he wants to she will revert to her original program

The nexus is good to him lately. Today, it brings Kunzite face to face with this rather entertaining new arrival.

"Master Kunzite and," his lips quirk up in that sardonic, sarcastic smile, "Mistress Ami Mizuno." He glances at Ami, de-transformed, at his side, and then back to Usagi.

He won't mind taking advantage of his face and name to find out more of the situation in front of him.

Ami is less amused. It's irritating to some part of her to hear all those names spoken together, as if they all form the united whole they had in the past. She steps beside Kunzite, and watches Usagi impassively.

[wanderlastmoon]

She blinks at them slowly, looking at them with attention as she recognizes them as alternates to her masters. She nods after a second; "Master Kunzite, Mistress Ami. I hope you are feeling well today."

She smiles and directs to Kunzite more specifically. Kunzite always seemed to be the leader after Endymion, and Ami's alternate has yet to talk after all. It's only natural she will direct herself to him; "Master Kunzite, I have a message from another world. Will you listen to it?"

[earthvictorious]

"I'll hear you out," decides Kunzite, not from any intention of helpfulness but simply to know the situation of the world Usagi represents. After all, thanks to the nexus, whether he likes it or not, they are all connected. Problems from one world can become problems to another.

Red eyes followed the simply dressed girl as she made her rounds, talking to people here and there, generally acting as Black Lady would have expected. Usagi was good at that, making 'friends' with everyone she met. A part of her despised it, not because it infuriated her but because in some small way she was jealous. Living in somewhat self-imposed isolation had gotten to her, and while she did count a couple people as friends, she couldn't but think about having more. Trusting them was the main set back, especially if they were senshi.

When Usagi drew near, Black Lady's expression was neutral, devoid of joy or anger. The tone of the girl's voice did catch her attention, enough so she was curious now. All that was left was to see if this Usagi had any sort of reaction at seeing her. "Sorry, haven't seen them."

[wanderlastmoon]

Again no luck with finding them here. Usagi's initial small smile drops a bit as she considers what to do; "Mmm, it doesn't seem I'll be able to find them here. Could you tell me who could be a representative of this world? Or who is in charge?" She smiles again, hopeful to get a positive answer this time.

There's no recognition in her upon seeing this woman, how could there be? Androids can't have children and she herself hasn't existed for that long either.

[pink_is_back]

"However, those names are not unfamiliar to me," she added, allowing her own smile to grow as Usagi's diminished. She didn't see recognition there, which wasn't entirely uncommon. She'd met more than one instance of an Usagi who had no idea who she was, which was nice because they didn't become whiny about her current form. Black Lady looked over the girl, trying to put a finger on that tone in her voice.

"The world doesn't work that way." Something Usagi would know if she'd study, but Black Lady left that comment out. "But if you must speak to someone, I suppose you'll have to settle for me."

[wanderlastmoon]

Usagi cheers up a little upon hearing the added comment. Not unfamiliar? So maybe they are here in this world after all, somewhere... Unless this girl is another traveler through worlds, which could explain why she would know them but not haven't seen them.

At any rate, she tilts her head as the girl answers. "I see, I'm sorry, my world works that way and my masters were unsure if the system would be the same in other worlds. They settled for taking it as a possibility;" the android explains easily and calmly. "Do you think I could stay in this world for a bit longer before I continue traveling? It would be rude to just stay without telling at least someone of this world."
