Fünfzehn - [Voice/Action]

[Filtered from Haruhi (cuz he's late!)]

Okay, now that we're not all one big happy family anymore, other people have DVDs here, yeah? The SOS Brigade needs some help coming up with a rental store. Our own very Blockbuster or something. If we all put our collections together, we'll have a pretty good variety and be one step closer to staving off extreme boredom. So if people could just tell me what they've got, we can get a list together. [Feel free to just handwave what that list might be.]

... we also need a place to keep them and someone to run the place. Any ideas?

[That long, long overdue business aside, Kurt is now free to do his own thing. What might that include? Nothing too unusual. Hanging out on top of buildings, spontaneously BAMFing in front of pretty girls, chilling at school during lunch break or coming and going from the SOS Brigade meeting. If he gets bored enough he might just watch people walk around the plaza. Life in Luceti can get a bit dull when your life consists of just socializing and homework. Even if you do have DVDs back home. Too bad he's watched most of the stuff he has already and everything else is just not his kind of stuff.]

[Kurt had just landed in a tree, on his way back from one of the lakes, when he feels something run into his tail, dangling below the branch. This is pretty unusual and puts him on edge just a bit, because the tail? Nobody messes with the tail. That's a rule.

Rather than turn around like a sensible person, he simply lets himself fall forward, hooks his fingers hook around the branch, so he can hang upside down and see what hit him. That's....

Oh, it's a pretty girl in one of those New Feather dresses. It was the right time of the month for that, wasn't it?]

Ahh... hey there. Welcome to Luceti.

[One of those New Feather dresses in which she feels far too exposed. Even when they reached the desert and she had to ditch the heavy cloak, there was never anything...like this.

Really, she had at least kept her shoes on.]

Ah... [but she can't find much to say while staring at a blue-furred person, dangling upside down on a branch.]

[Hmm. Seems like he startled her. Not good, then. Keeping one hand on the branch, he lets the rest of his body fall, landing into a crouch in front of her, remaining on all four while she's still sitting on the ground.]

Ohh, right. Sorry. Blue and fuzzy look is totally not good for first meetings here. [He holds out one three fingered hand for introduction.] I'm Kurt.

[...Well he seemed friendly enough. Maybe this was another of those places where the people were just...different. Mia smiles, sitting up on her knees and only a little hesitantly taking his hand to shake it]

I'm Mia. [and, giving the only plausible explanation for at least some of what happened] I've been separated from the group I was traveling with. Is there perhaps a town nearby?

[either they went there, or she will wait for them there. They can spare a few worried hours looking for her if the latter is the case.]

[If she's expecting a town full of awesome blue people like Kurt, she's going to be disappointed.

Man, breaking this kind of thing to New Feathers is always hard. Sure, her group might be in Luceti, but there's a good chance they aren't either. Well...]

Yeah, actually, you were headed in the right direction already, yeah? It's a pretty small place though. [And you'll never get to leave there ever. The not-so-enthusiastic way he's saying all this suggest that there's more going on than he's letting on.]

We have stayed in smaller towns before.

[implying that what she heard was something along the lines of, really it's too small to ever have visitors. Maybe not even an inn.]

...Though I do hope you have a shop or market of some kind. [where she can get real clothes.]

Oh, right. The introductory clothes are pretty lame, huh?

[He gets to his feet and offers her a hand for standing up.]

You should be able to find your old stuff there...

My..."old stuff?"

[as she takes his hand and stands. It hasn't been fun wandering the spring undergrowth in bare feet, but at least it gives her some sense of the area of the world she might be in]

[He nods, turning toward town. That will make his wings obvious, though obviously not that weird since he has a tail too.]

Ahh, right. Actually most of your stuff will be there. It wasn't exactly stolen, yeah? But it is all for free!

[the wings and tail do stand out a bit. She will just be quietly curious about them, for now. After all, she has wings of her own that she can't seem to explain either.]

I am...not understanding what you mean.

Ahh, well... this is going to sound way weird, but this is a whole other world. We were put in this place by these Malnosso guys, yeah? They put you in that dress and left all your stuff in the shops.

["You're crazy!" He's waiting for it. Dreading it, even. Luceti is just too weird to believe.]

[well, she definitely looks...skeptical]

How can that be possible? ...Do you mean another continent?

No... not another continent. Man... this would be way easier at night time. [The different constellations tends to be pretty damning.]

Do you know about other planets in your world?

I cannot say I want to be lost in the dark.

[now she's just giving him sort of a look.]

[Oh wait... he has all the proof he needs! She's looking at it.]

Well look at me! I have to be from another world, yeah? There's no one like me in your world, right?

You look a little bit like the people who live in Garoh. I thought we might be near there. It is far too warm to be near Prox. [her other option for blue people]

[... what, really. Seriously? He slumps a bit and- oh!]

Ahh, but can anyone do this? [Suddenly a BAMF and he reappears behind her.]

[Oh! An Adept! Thank goodness.]

I have never seen anyone Warp with smoke before. What sort of Adept are you?

[Ugh. Go figure. Shoulders slumping is a go again.]

... not an Adept. Mutant. [Sigh. Teleporting was so much cooler when only he could do it!]

[The word 'mutant' causes a momentary frown. But of greater concern is how she's still standing in the forest in what is essentially a summer nightgown. A Lalivero summer.]

Perhaps if you begin again at the beginning?

[Right. Okay, starting over.]

This place, Luceti, is another world, yeah? I'm not from your world. There's no Adepts where I'm from and no one can teleport except me. We have stuff like America and Elvis and McDonalds. If that doesn't sound familiar to you, then you're definitely not from my world.

No, I can't say I am familiar with any of those things.

Yeah. And you could list stuff too and it would be the same for me. [This is totally logical!]

Anyway, the village... it's this way. [He'll walk past her, heading that way.]

[She nods. Following him to the village will be best. ...Maybe someone else there can explain everything to her in a manner she will be better able to follow.]

[After some walking, an idea occurs to him.]

Actually... you want to take the shortcut? I can totally bamf us there, no problem!
