Character(s): Vivi and anyone who'd like to join! :D
Content: Vivi entering Paixao!
Setting: Niflheim [G10]
Time: Monday noon
Warnings: none yet.

Wobbling over to the gate, Vivi hesitates for a moment before the tall icy gates resembling the Ice Cavern with a long line of people. His experience in Ice Cavern is not entirely pleasant and he would not like to get frozen to rock ever again, but there are so many people entering the place that it should be safe. Everyone is so tall however, and he feels so small and he is afraid of joining the line but he is even more scared of going back into the dark dark forest behind him.

So after rocking from side to side for a moment, he straightens his hat out of habit and wobbles over to join the line. He is rather glad that the line is long because he does not really want to face the man in the booth very soon because he might be mean. But the line ends much too quickly for Vivi's liking and in no more than five minutes, Vivi found the man he was hiding behind walking through the gates, leaving Vivi to slowly look up at the tall man guarding the booth who is staring at Vivi with one raised brow.

Silence looms between them for a few seconds as the man tries to make sense of the yellow orbs staring at him from under a straw hat, but Vivi, scared of the man looking at him for too long, tries to break the silence with that sqeuaky voice of his, "U-uhm, can you p-p-please tell me wh-where I am?"

The man's eyebrow twitches higher for a moment before the edges of his lips start twitching as well. Vivi steps backward a little in fear of what the man might do when the man suddenly bursts into a roaring laughter that made Vivi fall backwards on his backside. While he is relieved that the man does not seem to be mean, he was also rather disturbed as the man is pointing at him while laughing. When the man's laughter subsides to occasional chuckling, he ducks under his table as if looking for something, "What's with the strange costume, kid?" then taking out a black metal object, he gives it to Vivi, "here, this is for you if you give me your name."

Vivi gets up on his feet and fixes his hat before wobbling closer to the man so he can take the metal object. He looks up at the man and stutters, "V-vivi. Vivi Ortinier," the man shoves the metal object into his hands and writes down Vivi's name on a piece of paper before gesturing for Vivi to go through the gate.

"Welcome to Paixao!" The man shouts to Vivi as the black mage gawks at the pretty pictures on the sky.

Niflheim?

That certainly didn't sound Japanese or English. Akito tilted his head back, glancing up the entire length of the impressive gates. Of course, he'd been staring at the monument in awe since he'd first arrived at the back of the line, but seeing it up close was a different matter.

Ooooh, pretty! I wonder if Ikki is here...

He squirmed a bit, making a pleased noise at the prospect and completely unaware that the chances of such were severely slim. But hey, leave the cynicism to Agito, right? Besides, he now had a large, unexplored city to play in! How fun!

The boy beamed at the nice lady who asked for his name, replying with a singsong, "Akito de~su!" She even gave him a nifty journal thing, for free! Did they also hand out free ice cream? Then that would be really great! Akito danced away (but not before giving the lady a kiss on the cheek), completely ignoring the information booth. Who needed brochures when he or she could skate wherever they wanted? ...Except, nobody else seemed to be wearing A-Ts. Why was that? Walking was so boring.

Akito dropped the thought as he caught a glimpse of the diminutive mage. (Since just about everyone was taller than the boy, it was much easier to take notice of someone actually shorter than him.) And what a strange looking outfit he was wearing! Akito decided that this "Vivi" would be quite interesting to talk to, and re-directed his course so that he skated in circles around the other newcomer.

"Hi there! How come you aren't wearing any A-Ts? Are you wearing a mask? How come you're so short? You're shorter than me, you know!"

The happy boy kept spouting off questions as he glided, finally stopping in front of Vivi after a good minute of cheerful interrogation.

"I'm Akito, by the way! You're Vivi, right? That's a cool name! Nice to meet you!"

The man flying in circles around him is making him very dizzy as he has been trying to follow the boy with his eyes, but the flying boy is just too fast. The questions that the boy suddenly hurls at Vivi unstoppably makes him dizzy too as he cannot remember every one of them. Hi there! How come you aren't wearing any A-Ts? Are you wearing a mask? How come you're so short? You're shorter than me, you know! With a mumble of confusion, Vivi falls back onto his rear side, staring at the boy who have finally stopped in front of him. While those two yellow orbs of his do not seem to be capable of showing much expression, they look more dazed, somehow.

I'm Akito, by the way! You're Vivi, right? That's a cool name! Nice to meet you! Vivi looks up at the man's face and tries to focus to decrease his dizziness. "Y-yeah! I'm Vivi," then getting back up to his feet, he fixes his hat out of habit and looks back up at Akito. "Nice t-to meet you t-too!"

Akito blinked as the other fell backwards, leaning in to get a good look at the mage. Hmm... how strange... it didn't look like he was wearing a mask. The boy had never seen someone with a black face and such round yellow eyes before! Maybe he was an alien? Maybe this Niflheim place was full of aliens!

He offered a hand (or at least a very long sleeve of his straightjacket) for Vivi to pull himself up with, giggling while the other adjusted his hat.

"Oops! Sorry, I didn't mean to make you dizzy!"

Oops! Sorry, I didn't mean to make you dizzy! Akito says while offering Vivi a hand, or is it? Not really caring, Vivi takes it anyway since getting up by himself is usually rather hard.

"Ummm, t-thank you," he stammers, rather unsure why Akito had appeared out of nowhere and greeted him like that. Strangers are usually not so nice, but Vivi is not complaining about meeting Akito since he does not like to be alone anyway. Akito reminds him of Zidane, he's very friendly.

"You're welcome!" Akito replied in his singsong voice, giving Vivi a pat on the back as he finally got himself back up. (Of course, he was sure not to pat him so hard that he'd fall forward the other way.) He rather liked the little mage- he seemed a little awkward, but nevertheless a very fun person to play with. Speaking of which...

"Hey~, wanna go explore the city with me? There's not much to do here. Let's go find other people to play with! Or get ice cream! I'll skate slowly, I promise~," the boy giggled again.

Hey~, wanna go explore the city with me? There's not much to do here. Let's go find other people to play with! Or get ice cream! I'll skate slowly, I promise~ Vivi stares with wide eyes at the boy giggling at him, confused at whether he should agree to the suggestion or not. The boy is a stranger and strangers are usually mean to Vivi, but Akito seems nice like Zidane, and Zidane was a stranger too, once.

"U-uhm, okay..." he agrees slowly, still hesitant about it. Then as an afterthought, "I-I don't really like ice creams though," he speaks softly, afraid of offending Akito if he speaks too loud. "Uhm, I mean, you can get ice cream for yourself, but I d-don't want any."

Shuffling his feet around, Vivi then turns to Akito, "S-so, we go in now?"

Akito was flabbergasted at his second statement, and thus gaped at the other for a bit before responding in a whisper of disbelief, "You don't like ice cream?"

He sounded like he was going to cry, then suddenly recovered and chirped, "That's okay! You can eat what you like then! And sure, let's go~!"

Akito beamed and rolled forward on his skates, head turning every which way in attempt to take in his surroundings all at once. Maybe more interesting people would come out- so far everyone else (with the exception of Vivi, of course,) seemed extremely dull.

"U-uhm..." Vivi really does not know what to say to make Akito feel better since he looks so sad about the fact that Vivi does not like ice creams. Just as Vivi is trying to think up things to comfort Akito with, the boy returns to his cheerful state and chirps, That's okay! You can eat what you like then! And sure, let's go~!

Vivi blinks slowly twice before wobbling after Akito who is now rolling forward on his wheeled shoes, "Oh, w-wait!" he squeaks before wobbling faster to catch up with his newly-found companion.

Akito seems to be very interested in everything that surrounds them, and Vivi follows his gaze to find out what it is that interests him so much. Everyone here is blonde and blue-eyed, just like the people back at Terra. Vivi just hopes that the people are not so unfriendly. "I wonder if there are any windmills around here..." the words escape his lips without him even thinking about it.
