۞ First Spell ۞ Action

[alwaysserious]

[At just about any other time in his life, Zelgadis would be trying his very best to blend in, and not stand out too much in a crowd. But today? Today is different.

He has had to steal his own clothes back, figure out how to deal with feathery wings, and make a so far hopeless attempt to find those who he had been traveling with. Again. And all

[Okita is standing at the bottom of the fountain, holding a paper bag of sweets, his pig at his side, staring up at the stranger standing on top of the fountain. Why would someone be up there? And what are they doing? Maybe they're trying to see far away? Or...just becoming a part of the decor?]

Do you see something interesting?

[alwaysserious]

[Zelgadis only stares for the first few seconds. Mostly trying to ignore the random pig, but actually looking around at that question in search for a good answer.

But he shakes his head.]

No, not unless you call a forest of trees interesting.

[ahappylie]

It can be, if you can see what's inside it.

Are you new? I haven't heard your voice over the networks before.

[alwaysserious]

It's a forest, I know what's inside it.

I just arrived here, if that's what you mean. But what are 'networks'?

[etreici]

[Standing beside the fountain.

Staring.]

[alwaysserious]

[Staring right back, looking a bit annoyed at being stared at.]

[etreici]

Why are you standing up there?

[alwaysserious]

I'm looking for someone.

[liketofu]

See something you like?

[alwaysserious]

Not really.

[liketofu]

[She chuckles.]

I'm not surprised; it's hard to see much of anything from there. If you really want a vantage point, something like... [and she points to the nearest community building] that might be better, don't you think?

[alwaysserious]

That's probably true, but I thought that being in the middle of town would work just as well.

[Don't look now, but a green head of hair is poking out of the fountain's water. Totally not observing the new feather, no, not at all.]

[alwaysserious]

[Well that's...new. And all he can do is tilt his head, and stare back.]

[sea_king_bait]

[Blink blink.]

Why...are you standing on the fountain?

[alwaysserious]

I'm looking for something.
