Ven? This place is...

[...definitely not Master Yen Sid's tower. This wasn't anywhere she had seen before at all, in fact. It was closest to Destiny Islands, but the similarities there ended with the beach. How had this happened?

And, more importantly, where was Ven? A quick look around didn't turn up any sign of him, but that didn't mean he wasn't here. Aqua would make sure to check everywhere she could, first. After finally finding him again before ending up here, she certainly wasn't going to write him off as gone so easily.]

...I'll just have to find him. At least there's no sign of Unversed yet.

[Scouting all along the coast for signs of mermaids might've been a bad choice after all. Because as soon as he might've found something, not too far off the shore, whatever it was it gave him quite a beating. A sea monster of sorts perhaps]

[Treating the injury was also being more so a problem than it should too between finding a place to escape to, and of course having to de-vegetitize a primo earlier. So of course he was pretty worn out by now]

[So for now, he'll just ignore you with back turned. Probably didn't know you were there quite yet anyway got worse things to worry about right now]

[rainfelling]

[--for the love of all that is light, what happened to you.]

Ah, hey- [Asking if you're all right seems kind of pointless. But though you're not in the best shape, people don't always like having help forced on them either, so...]

...Do you want some help?

[onyxblade.livejournal.com]

[Sighs a little]

I don't recommend getting too close. [Maybe someone actually managed to figure out that this "virus" thing is contagious but wait, whywouldhebeactingsomewhatniceagain]

[rainfelling]

I don't have to be, to use the spell.

[But it seems to be more than just that. Becauseyourtruenatureissquishy,that'swhy.]

Is something happening here?

[onyxblade.livejournal.com]

... A spell?

[Pauses for a bit and just look away again. ... Awww ;o; sosquishy]

Hn.. Now has not been the best time to be here. [But then, when was it ever.. srsly :|]

[rainfelling]

Yes. I know healing magic.

[And sob, that news. Had better make sure if Ven really was here or not soon then, but it'd be nice to know what to expect first.]

Are there monsters causing trouble here, too?

[onyxblade.livejournal.com]

Not normally. It's usually more complicated than that. [But more importantly]


... Why would you want to help me? [Because it seems like anyone that does that lately don't really mean it :|]

{Sleeping on the beach with his swords laid out next to him.}

[rainfelling]

[This can't be the best place to sleep, but would it be a good idea to wake you...]

[naturallymossy.livejournal.com]

{No need, he cracked on eye open at your approach.}

[rainfelling]

[One less thing to worry about, then.]

Sorry for waking you.

[naturallymossy.livejournal.com]

It's fine.

{He hasn't seen you around before.}

You just arrive here?

[rainfelling]

Yes, one way or another. [Changing worlds isn't anything new at all, but it happening without warning isn't normal.]

Could you tell me where I am?

[not-virtuous.livejournal.com]

--Revya! [It was apparent that he had been here not too long ago. Although why we're not sure, considering we don't even know what's gotten into him]

[Stopped at the shore just to see if he could still be sensed anywhere]..... Damn, he's not here anymore.


[ohay, therewassomeoneelseherethough]-?

[rainfelling]

[Ohai there. So you lost someone too. ;;]

Hello.

[not-virtuous.livejournal.com]

[Babysitting is never an easy job :|]

... Sorry to bother you.

[rainfelling]

[Poor thing. >:]

Oh! No, you didn't. [H-handwave] I'm just a little lost is all.

[not-virtuous.livejournal.com]

[I manage somehow ;;]

So you did just arrive here? [Figured as much, although...]

Did you see anyone else when you appeared?

[rainfelling]

I didn't, sorry. I'm looking for a couple people, myself...

[seekingallblue.livejournal.com]

[Someone had been out for a stroll. . .and what luck~~ He's going to be moving towards you now, offering a little bow.]

". . .Melloriiiinee~ What a beautiful new face we have here~"

[If you'll allow it, he'll be taking your hand to kiss it.]

[rainfelling]

[She'll allow that, but only because you caught her off-guard. So, she'll also be taking that hand back as soon as you're done. Totally not used to the attention.]

Er-- J-just where is "here," anyway?

[seekingallblue.livejournal.com]

" . . .an island called 'Kunpuu'. In short, it's ruled by mermaids, inescapable and pulls people from all different dimensions and times."

[He'll offer you another little bow.]

". . . My name is Sanji - I run a restaurant nearby. . . Would you grace me with your own name, Mellorine~?"

[rainfelling]

--Inescapable? [Nnnot good. The dimension thing she can handle because it's not an entirely new concept, and time is...weird, but not too surprising considering the cross-dimensions. Not being able to leave, however, makes her frown worriedly. She has two boys to track down, preferably quickly.]

...In any case, my name is Aqua.

[seekingallblue.livejournal.com]

" . .Aqua~ What a beautiful name fitting for a very beautiful lady~"

[After a moment he speaks again.]

". . . I wouldn't worry though. I've heard that eventually whenever the island decides to return you. . . "

[. . Or rather if it does. He's not going to add this part though.]

". . .It'll send you back to exactly where you were before you ended up here. Nothing in your time will have progressed without you."

[rainfelling]

T-thank you.

[That news does make her brighten a little--brings back more of that hope.]

That's something, at least. [They wouldn't be getting into trouble without her, which she's grateful for. Though the fact she'd just been reunited with Ven, just to lose him again already if it turned out he wasn't here...]

I was so close to getting Ven back. ...But he could always show up too, right?
