How Strange...

[serenelord]

Looks like the nexus is fluctuating again.

It's the deck of a ship, out in the middle of the ocean. Skies are blue, the sea is calm and the wind blows strong and gentle. On the deck is a girl both like and unlike anyone else here. Princess Serenity, wayward princess of the fallen kingdom of Selenus and young general of a small ragtag army of her

welcome!

Prince Endymion of Earth finds himself - on a ship.

This is a new one, even for him. But he gives it no more than an inward sigh; he's very used to the nexus and its way of bringing him anywhere it feels like.

The day gets better when he spots Serenity. He actually finds a slight smile, but it fades to worry when he realizes what she's actually saying.

"Your ladies are missing?"

<3

((Well isn't this a lovely thing for her to see on her first trip to the nexus.))

Serenity turns with a small gasp, and her hand goes to her sword before she sees who it is. When she sees Endymion, she relaxes, though she is still surprised to see him here. Even if it's a happy surprise. She'd been really worried about him since the war started. "Endymion? Is that really you? Oh how did you get here?"

[Oh, there are much worse things waiting in the nexus. But we can't scare her off from the very start, can we? >D]

Endymion throws up his hands in mock surrender. "I am your prisoner," he tells Serenity, conveniently ignoring the question of how he got here. He grins almost flirtatiously. "What will you do to me?"

[serenelord]

She blushes, and pouts slightly. Normally she wouldn't mind his flirting, but this didn't seem to be the appropriate time. "Mou, Endymiooon, don't tease me. I haven't heard a word from you since the war started! I've been so worried about you!"

((Right. Don't quite have the right icon for this one. XD Just going to say it now. This one's a bit more responsible than most younger Serenity/Usagi, since I tossed in a few standard FE Lord personality traits, like being a gifted leader and strategist, though she's a bit of a "Bunny Ears Lawyer" in that regard (pun intended.) She's supposed to be leading a group of rebels in a war after all.))

very right! <3

The unexpected sway of the ship makes Usagi lose her footing immediately, and she barely keeps herself from crashing painfully into the deck by grabbing into a mast pole.

"What the- Where am I now?!"

[serenelord]

The princess turns when she hears the small commotion, a hand reaching for her sword. "Who's there?!"

She eventually did spot Usagi, and it was needless to say she was shocked. "... What?" she blinked. Why... did that girl look like her? "Wh-who are you?!"

[buntails]

Usagi lets out a yelp scrambles backwards away from the sharp, pointy, stabby-looking sword.

"I'm not an enemy!" she promises. "I'm Tsukino Usagi!"

[serenelord]

"... Usagi?" She repeated, blinking again. A girl who looked like her and had the same name she'd been using as an alias? That was even more strange. However, she lowers her sword. The girl didn't seem to be armed after all. "I'm sorry. You really startled me." She said, her demeanor friendly, but still cautious.

"But what are you doing here? Did you stow away while we were at port?"

[illuminedshield]

While she's fretting, Mamoru comes up behind Serenity.

"Don't worry," he tells her. "I'll help you look for them." He smiles, meant to be reassuring. "Maybe they went on ahead. Are you late meeting them?"

[serenelord]

Serenity turns, hands moving towards the hilt of her sword before she sees 'Endymion' behind her. Her hand falls to her side and she looks surprised and a bit confused to see him. "Endymion? What... How did you get here?"

((Sorry it took so long to respond. I'd been debating whether or not to have her having already met the Endymion above so she'd be even more confused, but oh what the heck? XD))

[illuminedshield]

Endymion? His heart sinks, because the only Endymion he's been in this life was... with Beryl. It's not something he's eager to remember, and if he's hurt this princess, too-

But no; his princess rarely dresses in the regal gowns of her past life. Surely, this is actually Princess Serenity of the past life, the Moon Kingdom.

"Princess," he says. "I apologize for startling you."

(ooc: No worries! I read over the background since I don't know Fire Emblem. It works quite well! ♥)

[serenelord]

Serenity smiled, feeling relieve to see he was okay. "I'm just glad to see you're alright! It's been so long since I last heard from you, I was beginning to worry."
