Alisa: It's so easily complex! De Arimasu~! [Complete]

Character(s): Alisa Southerncross and anyone who happens by
Content: How do you used journal--!?
Setting: Joutenheim Gate
Time: Early evening, Week 18
Warnings: RETARDEDNESS

Well, so much for dinner. And here Alisa was hoping to feast on a large Dark Race. Oh well, finding herself in a line for something she had no idea was for wasn't a bad thing, right? Well, right up until she got the front of the line. She wasn't accustomed to being shoved some strange device and trying to hear what the people at the gate were saying. One moment she was asked her name, the next moment she was shoved a box thing and sent on her merry way.

Luckily, she did hear the people talking about how it was supposed to be a journal. Alisa studied the device for a good minute before she opened it. She then stared at the opened journal with a hard glare.

Why is it called a journal when you can't write on it? Where's the pencil or pen? This journal is a lie!

Urd was enjoying a new bottle of Dragon Dance sake on a bench under the awning of a quaint little shop when she saw the girl. My, a lot of new people were coming through the gates lately, weren't they? She watched her study the journal, sipping at her drink with quite amusement. Only when it seemed like she'd start to do serious harm to the journal did the goddess stand up and head towards her.

"Hello," she greeted her with a mild smile, arms crossed under her chest. "You alright? You seem a bit confused."

The only reaction Urd displayed at Alisa's glare was a slight twitch of the eyebrow. "It's electronic. Do you have electronics in your world? Here, I'll show you..." She reached out to take the journal from her hands but paused, looking with confusion at her headband. She couldn't be sure, but she could have sworn she sensed some kind of...life force from it.

"That's...an interesting headband you got there," she said, glancing back down at the girl with an arched eyebrow.

Urd blinked, smiling slightly. The more she was standing this close to the girl, the more she was convinced something was off about her...and that headband. Well, she wasn't one to judge. Weirder people have certainly entered the gates before, after all. She turned her attention back to the journal.

"See, this here is the screen; when you turn the device on, you'll be able to see what other people have written as well as write something as well. If you push this button, you don't have to push these buttons to type...you can just speak and it'll record it. This button will bring you to the map of the city." She closed it and handed it back.

"What's your name?"

"You're welcome." Urd stepped back a bit, giving another curious look to the headband again before glancing at Alisa again. "I like to help the new people coming in. We all felt lost and confused coming here, believe me." She folded her arms under her chest and gave her a friendly smile.

"I'm Urd. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask."

"Ah...w-wait..." she muttered during Alisa's stream of details about this Fuyuki. Urd just decided to let her ramble on, not at all convinced she could stop her even if she wanted to, a bemused expression on her face. When the girl finally finished, she held out her hands in a placating manner.

"Sorry, I don't think he's here. I would have noticed someone..." she paused. Somehow she got the impression calling him "normal" would be seen as insulting. "...someone like that."

[identity profile] tenshinomakai.livejournal.com 2010-02-19 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Urd laughed a bit sheepishly, her hand going to the back of her neck. "Oh, trust me...being normal is a sure way to stand out here. There's...quite a lot of abnormal people here." She dropped her hand, expression turning more serious and a bit apologetic.

"It's probably better that he isn't here...it's not exactly safe here. And we're all stuck here, besides."

"Ah...ha ha..." Well, she had a point there. "I meant, you can't get off this island. Even if you manage to get past the guards, who would really like you to stay inside the city, there's no way over the ocean. And I suspect the water will just keep going far longer than any of us can swim, human or no."

Urd paused, stroking her chin as she gazed down at Alisa. "You...you're not exactly human yourself, are you?"

She smiled, lowering her hand to her hip. "That's a good goal. I like humans." Urd tilted her head, trying to get a glimpse of the girl's eyes. "Can I ask you why, though? Is it because of...Fuyuki?" It wouldn't be the first time someone had striven to become something other than they were for the sake of love.

The more information this girl gave her, the more questions she had. Urd blinked, more curious about Alisa than before. But, rather than load her down with even more questions, she simply reached out and gently patted her shoulder. "Sounds like a good man. If there's anything I can do to help you here, let me know, okay?" She grinned, tossing her hair of her shoulder.

"We should all stick together here. There's more than enough creeps trying to ruin our lives in this place."

Well, now. Alisa looked much more human when she smiled. Her own smile turning gentle, Urd nodded in approval at the girl's apparent obedience. "Good. I'll let you go so you can explore this place more." With that, she turned and began to walk away, waving a little over her shoulder.

"See you around, Alisa. Be good!"
