[ Dear random citizen of Vatheon, if you happen to come across the very peaceful park at, oh let's say, about 2-3 PM in the afternoon, you might find a not-so-inconspicuous wooden crate sitting

[immortalityact]

[Another redhead is approaching the crate, looking at it curiously. She's about to take a seat on it but then this girl appears and speaks before disappearing.]

...?

[Mitsuru knocks on the top of the crate cautiously. That girl was still in there, surely.]

[kagayakashi]

[ Gracia's mumble from the inside comes off as incoherent, but she eventually opens the lid of the box with one hand and peers outside. Sleepily, she spots the lady and tilts her head to the side. ]

Ohh, are you part of this dream too?

[immortalityact]

I don't think this is a dream. But then again, I can dream and it can feel as real as the world around me.

[What a curious girl she was. Why was she hiding in a box?]

Are you alright? It's a curious place to nap in.

1/2

[kagayakashi]

As real as the world around you...How strange. [ Gracia yawns as she finishes replying to the woman, and before she speaks another word, the lid of the box closes all of a sudden.

Silence. ]

[heroistics]

[Staaaaaaaaaaaaaare.

Blink. Blink.

It's not like it's the first time he's seen someone live in a box, but. Uh. That was unexpected.]

M-Miss Gracia!?

[kagayakashi]

[ She yawns loudly inside the box, and then silence again. Five seconds later, Gracia slowly emerges with only a quarter of her head in sight. She blinks just as slow before responding. ]

Hello, Ren. I wonder why I'm dreaming of you today?

[heroistics]

H-Huh!?

[... Oh. Oh.]

Um... I don't really know how to put this, but you're not dreaming...?

[kagayakashi]

[ She rubs her eyes with the side of her wrist. ]

I see...then that must mean I'm awake.

[ Another yawn. ]

Right?

[treasurehunted]

[.... well motochika will just knock on it then!!!!]

[kagayakashi]

[ Gracia twists and turns in the box, causing it to wobble slightly, before she opens the lid and looks around again. When she makes eye contact with Motochika, she stifles a yawn and then speaks. ]

Tochi, this is the first time you've appeared in one of my dreams.

[treasurehunted]

... still not quite there, Gracia. C'mon, let's get ya home.

[kagayakashi]

[ She pouts silently, before quietly retreating back into the box.

And then she just stays in there.

What do? ]

[seablaze]

[Oh hey a box. Maybe there were booty valuables inside?

Faris did the logical thing after prodding the box with his boot. He kicked it, hoping to knock it over to see what comes tumbling out.]

[kagayakashi]

[ W-Wait what

After Faris kicks the box, it wobbles dangerously close to falling over. Thankfully, Gracia's weight stops it from toppling over completely.

Oh, but she stretches from her rather cramped spot inside the box. So yeah, the box does topples over, and out she goes, sprawled on the dewy grass, half-asleep. Whoops ]

[seablaze]

[To leave, or not to leave. That is the question.

Scratching the back of his head with a brow raised. Really?][Faris moved around the box to prod the girl with his boot. Chivalry doesn't exist in this one's dictionary, sorry.]

Might want to pick another place there, before something decides ta eat ya.

[kagayakashi]

[ She stirs awake at the...kicking, and sits up soon afterwards. She yawns while outstretching her arms up above her, creaking one eye open to glimpse at the person who woke her up. ]

Eat me? What do you mean?

[fireflowered]

[ .... well, now. this was interesting. Kohaku giggled, kneeling down and tapping the box a few times. ]

Wouldn't a bed be more comfortable?

[kagayakashi]

[ No response, as Gracia continues to twist and turn inside the cramped looking crate. After a few minutes though, she emerges rather...abruptly. The lid pops off like it exploded and she's standing with her arms out, a loud yawn and a stretch accompanying her theatrical entrance. ]

That sounds lovely, but now I have more energy than ever!

[fireflowered]

[ she falls back from the sudden emergence from the crate. after a few moments of staring, she can't help but laugh at the girl's spontaneity. ]

Good to know! What were you doing in there, though? Other than napping.

[kagayakashi]

[ Gracia stretches her arms over her back, cracks her neck, and then jumps out of the box completely. ]

Other than napping? Nothing else! Just that! Boxes are very useful, you know.
