❀ 1st Weed in the Garden - Action/Voice ❀

[shamelessness]

Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! It's cold! It's cold!

[A small blond teen in a new feather dress climbs out of the fountain, soaked from the knees down. She scrambles to get away and ends up running through the village a little before slipping and having a giant fall. This fall knocks her journal open. The recording was pressed on by accident, and the book is upside down so there is no picture. There is only:]

[Voice]
Ow, ow, ow, ow...

[bamfing]

[Yup! There it is!]

Well, this is where the bad news kicks in, yeah? This place is called Luceti. It's... nowhere you've ever heard of. And it's not a place you can get out of.

[Action]

[shamelessness]

Can't get out? Why?

[Action]

[bamfing]

There's a barrier that goes all around this place. Not even I can get through it.

[And to make a point, he'll abruptly vanish in a puff of smoke and reappear behind her instantly.]

And usually I can get through anything.

[Action]

[shamelessness]

Kur- eh?! [Her surprise dissolves into a coughing fit, and she's too busy dealing with that to notice him behind her. Her everything is frail okay.]

[Action]

[bamfing]

[Okay. So maybe he teleported a little too close. He usually steps back first. So he'll tug on her from behind to get her out of the smoke.]

Sorry about that.

[Action]

[shamelessness]

H-how'd you do that?

[Action]

[bamfing]

Teleporting. It's ahh... a little something special I was born with. Cool, yeah?

[Action]

[shamelessness]

Very! And you can go anywhere like that?

[Action]

[bamfing]

Usually! Just. Not outside the barrier. [Which is the point he was getting at.]

[Action]

[shamelessness]

Has no one been able to get out?

[Action]

[bamfing]

No. Not by trying, anyway.

[Action]

[shamelessness]

[So they really are stuck...] Are there places for people to stay since they can't get out?

[Action]

[bamfing]

Ahh, of course. There's all kinds of houses and apartments to stay at. The Welcome Center can tell you which ones are open.

[Action]

[shamelessness]

Thank you! You're so helpful. [Shiemi looks around and... well she doesn't know where to find the Welcome Center.]

[Action]

[bamfing]

[He's noticed. He shakes his head, still grinning.]

How about I teleport us there, yeah?

[Action]

[shamelessness]

You can take people with you?! [So cool! She stares, amazed.]

[Action]

[bamfing]

Oh yeah, easy. Want to try it out? [He holds out a hand for her to take.]

[Action]

[shamelessness]

[She hesitates for a moment before taking his hand.]

It won't be too much trouble? [Or scary?]

[Action]

[bamfing]

Well, you might get a little dizzy. That's not too bad, yeah?

[Action]

[shamelessness]

N-no! Not bad at all.

[Action]

[bamfing]

[Well, he'll hold out his hand a little more insistently then.]

[Action]

[shamelessness]

[With a deep breath she reaches out and takes his hand. Yeah! She can be brave and handle this!]

[Action]

[bamfing]

[Now you see them... and one thrilling rollercoaster wrapped up in a split second later, the Welcome Center is right in front of them. Honestly it would have taken them like three minutes to walk here otherwise.]

Here we are!
