welcome to goldvale . intro post #1


It begins with a flash of blinding light.

No matter what they’re doing, the light is so stunning that they pause to shield their eyes. Logically, it seems like such a bright light would hurt their eyes, and yet somehow, it’s not painful at all. It’s strange, but stranger still, a moment later, the ground underneath them is gone. They’re falling, and it feels like they’re falling for a long time as their eyes adjust after that light.

Yet, it’s not long at all—they’re only falling five feet or so. But as they, and others, appear in the air, there’s a shriek of alarm.

“Beryl—Go!!”

A man’s voice shouts after the scream, and as their eyes adjust, they’ll see two blurry figures, the woman running away while the man briefly stands his ground with a dagger raised before he takes advantage of the confusion to flee as well and cover her. You, and all of the other disoriented strangers, have been left alone. There might be a few bruises from the fall, but otherwise, there are no new injuries. It’s a strange lobby, but nothing about it seems helpful to reveal where you are. Following the two figures is fruitless too, since the door at the end of that hallway is sealed shut with magic—no one will be able to pass through.

So, just where are you?

( be careful what you wish for doctor (≖‿≖) as spirited as ever, and why wouldn't she since she's found yet another of their important companions, iva invites herself into a chair-- and quietly at that. )

I'm always in a good mood, Doctor.

( haha yeah ok iva-- though her expression does sober slightly for a moment as she thinks. )

I just hope if Nai and Tsukumo are here, I find them soon too. Almost all of the Second Ship's crew is here...

( what a troubling thought, that so many of circus' core members are missing, and iva can only imagine what the state of the ship must be like. what if jiki is perving on tsukumo right at this moment? what if nai tries playing drink-what's-under-the-kitchen-sink?

it's hard for her not to worry, but she rests her elbows on the table and perches her head in her hands with a sigh through her nose. eyeing akari's pile of what is no doubt jibber-jabber, iva raises her brows. )


You look like you're busy too, though.
examinates: (let me learn you a thing)

wow they really do need more canon talk =3=

I'm never too busy to compare notes. [ not... charming... at all... ] With any luck, those left behind will contact the Research Tower to coordinate a retrieval. Until then, it's all we can do to be prepared.


[ meanwhile, the sheep will keep Nai out from under the sink. probably? ]

=__= ikr they're so cute too, it's no fair

( she can appreciate his desire to be prepared, but iva has a feeling akari just wants to be left alone to his research... )

Don't you want to do anything else until then? You can compare your notes anytime right? The two of us should do something together! We never get to spend time together alone!

What would you propose? Sightseeing? Putting on a play to distract the other new arrivals from our situation? Your area of expertise is only helpful in the short-term. My own time is put to better use here.

[ i'm a doctor, jim, not a circus performer ]

( is he serious. cue iva stretching her arms out across the table as if reaching for the good doctor. )

Come on, doctor, give me some credit here! I can do more than just put on shows and be a distraction!

( she can also beat up most men >:ooo )

Why don't we do a...sociology experiment?

( yeah...that's what she'll call it... )
examinates: (i'm thinking of a number between 1 and 2)

Most of those talents would go to waste in a place like this. [ not really an insult - such a big personality is just straight-up incompatible with being squashed into a quiet place like this.

but he's been dragged off before and it's bound to happen again. the most akari can do is arch a brow in curiosity and hope to delay the inevitable. ]


I'm listening.

( if she wasn't too focused on getting what she wanted, she would have given him a good noogie or threatened the good doctor with a big wet kiss. sheesh, she's starting to know why they don't hang out often! )

Why don't we go out and observe the differences in behavior between the districts and guild members?

( aka come shop and peoplewatch with me. )
