Tear needed to find out more about the city, to discover its secrets, to learn why people came here and why it was so difficult to leave. She'd taken to exploring, traveling the city on foot, always armed. Thus far, Tear had discovered very little, but it did not deter her, and so she continued to search.

As it happened, the melodist was passing the Niflheim Gate when she spotted a large dark form. It seemed to be an animal of some sort, and since creatures of this sort were rare within Paixao, she stepped slowly towards it to get a closer look. A moment's study revealed that the animal was a dog. A rather charming dog, that Tear wouldn't have minded scratching behind the ears - assuming it was friendly and tame.

Tear hoped her movements wouldn't frighten it away. She approached it slowly, ready just in case it should prove dangerous.

"Are you lost...?" she asked gently.

...It really was a charming dog. And cute.

Apologies? Nonsense! halvedhowl August 22 2010, 02:35:12 UTC

Blue has no qualms against a good scratching, but at Tear's voice she turns her head and the illusion of a woman sitting with a knee pulled up to her chest takes the place of the canine.

"Oh, I'm sorry. No, I'm quite fine, just..." She looks back out towards the fields. "Lost in thought, I guess." She smiles.

Had Tear not been trained to act and think quickly, she would have jumped out of her high-heeled boots. She hadn't quite been expecting an answer, and she most certainly hadn't expected the animal to morph into a human. Assuming that was what had actually happened.

The melodist tried not to stare, though a slight blush came to her face. She brought a hand up close to her chest while the other remained lowered, mere inches from the knife at her thigh - just in case.

"I beg your pardon, I didn't..." her voice trailed off. Not sure how to phrase her thoughts without seeming rude, Tear shook her head slightly.

"Might I ask what it is you're considering? Perhaps I could be of some help."

She blinks, looking towards the woman. "No, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have -" Well, it didn't really matter now. "I didn't mean to surprise you." She smiles, hoping to have calmed the woman some; she certainly can't blame anyone for not knowing how to deal with her nature. Even back home, it was sometimes strange for others.

Blue glances back towards the fields, folding her arms over her knees and resting her head down upon them. She doesn't answer for some time, and then, her voice comes softly, "Have you been out there? To these... other world - floors - that people have spoken about?"

"It's quite all right," said the melodist in a serious tone. She had relaxed considerably since her initial surprise. For the most part, she simply hadn't been expecting a cute animal to turn into a human woman. It was a bit embarrassing. She'd have to be more careful about this sort of thing in the future.

"I'm afraid I haven't," Tear answered, folding her arms loosely in front of her and following Blue's line of vision, "Though I do know of someone who has. The longer I spend in this city, the more I think exploring them would be beneficial to everyone."
