Discussions and Debates [Completed]
Character(s): Furude Rika, Alice
Content: The Two decide to eat at the cafe, and discussion begins
Setting: Cafe Ersesat.
Time: Afternoon
Warnings: None
They also seemed to be the easiest place to find. Alice was pleased to lead the girl here, though it panged her that she would no longer have the last companion she traveled with. Of course, in retrospect, Alice supposed it was another thing she would simply have to endure. In any case, this girl needed to be updated on many things.
She got them a seat hear the back of the cafe, scanning the menu. There were many things to talk about, and Alice refused to do that on an empty stomach. She motioned to one of their servers. "I'll have the hot chocolate and a biscuit, please," Alice asked politely. She looked over at her acquaintance. "What will you have?"

"I'll have the hot chocolate and a biscuit, please," Alice asked politely. She looked over at her acquaintance. "What will you have?"
no subject
She considered the menu for a moment. Wine would have been nice, but she did not want to look out of place, and so she selected again. "Apple juice~!"
She smiled, and looked up at Alice. "There are lots of people who look the same here."
It was odd. Perhaps Alice knew something about it?
no subject
The water came back, and Alice thanked him before taking a careful sip of her chocolate. She normally didn't enjoy sweets, but this would be an exception today. "Have you talked to anyone else here?"
no subject
"Only you and Ivan," Rika said. "And the guard, but he really didn't tell me much."
So there were many people being dragged away from their own worlds? She was almost relieved; it was not simply a product of her own cycle. That would make things a bit more complicated, then.
no subject
Alice handed her some of the leaves. "You'll need these when you go to a lodging or food shop that requires compensation. Also, if you are a fighter, I suggest you train with your weapon. There's no telling what strange creatures you might meet."
no subject
She accepted the leaves, still marveling that this was what passed for money. "Thank you. I've never fought anything, though..."
She had used a butcher's knife once before, but that was on herself. Weapons were not her specialty.
no subject
Alice nodded. "In that case, you may need to learn. There are a variety of unsavory creatures here. I can help you there, but of course we'll have to use my less damaging weapons."
Alice smiled and took a sip of the hot chocolate then a bit of the biscuit. "Oatmeal and sweet. Excellent. Goes very good with this."
no subject
"Thank you," Rika said, in reference to weapons. "I'd rather not use them... But if I have to..."
She was letting her childlike image fade just a bit in favor of more frank discussion. She was no stranger to violence, at the least. Perhaps that would prove useful here.
And then, a bit of worry that had been constantly eating at her: "Do you think we'll be able to go home eventually?"
no subject
Alice lay back a moment, reclining. She wondered about this girl. She looked a bit too prim and proper to be trying for something like this, that was for sure. She could only hope that she was wilder than she looked.
"That remains to be seen," Alice replied. "In fact, you can more or less count that as a maybe. Now then, what shall you be doing next?"
no subject
"I should find somewhere to stay," Rika said finally; it wouldn't do for her to be sleeping on the streets every night, especially with money so readily available.
She finished the rest of her apple juice; she never had been one to take little sips of anything. "Then I could try to learn about weapons."
no subject
Alice finished her hot chocolate and left a few leaves for the bill. "Of course, that is your choice. You can strike it out on your own if you wish. I just happened to fall upon pleasant company when I arrived. Sadly, said company is no longer here, but I believe it helps to start off with someone. It's your call."
no subject
Could she be that lucky? She could only hope. "I can talk to you over the journals, right?"
Alice seemed nice; it would be good to have an ally in this peculiar city.
no subject
Alice sighed a little. "It is getting dark. You will certainly want to find shelter, which is why I gave you that bit of pocket money, I'll afraid I'll be on my own tonight: I'm not one for staying in one place by myself. I'm sure you'll find your way."
With that, Alice got up and curtsied, then left the hotel.
no subject
A look at the map revealed plenty of hotels in the area. She could spend the rest of the day looking around, and then stay at the closest one. Stretching, she looked up at the painted dome sky and couldn't help but smile a bit. She was freed from the cycle, and had a new place to explore. It wasn't entirely a bad thing.
She just hoped her friends would show up, too. She began walking.
