angelicamber | First Fall -- Action

[Waking up is to be expected. Waking up on hard cobblestones in the plaza of a small town instead of in a tree or some other nice, natural place is a little more surprising. Especially cobblestones in a place she doesn't recognize, in a dress she doesn't recognize, sore and stiff all over.

Well... it has been 100 years. A lot can change. But none of this, not even the geography, looks familiar. There are mountains! And it's the middle of a town, not a suburb of a big city... And she can't sense Shuichiro. They're connected, so if he's alive she should be able to tell, somehow. Like a light burning in the center of her heart.

So, that could mean trouble. She has to find out what she can, as soon as she can. And what better way than to ask the residents? And by residents, she means plants. She shouldn't be visible to normal humans right now, anyway. But she is -- chalk it up to Luceti weirdness. She is completely detectable as she chats idly with all the plants she can find, from the weeds between the pavers to the flowers in the gardens. And none of them know a Shuichiro, or Japan at all. But she'll keep trying!]

((OOC: This is during the day. Feel free to interrupt at any time. It's ok to think she's crazy! And if you have any ESP at all, she isn't hiding anything, so it's obvious she is an angel, or at least strongly light and pure.))

[Today. Is the weirdest day.

After talking to the half-dragon with a broken wing and coming back home, Okita had gone back to putting up the laundry and trying to coax his pets into relaxing. He'd just finished up outside and taken a broom out to the front yard when he saw someone ever so familiar talking to a garden across the street.

It's been far too long since he last saw Kohaku and so many things had happened. He'd chosen before to stay away from her because he was afraid he wasn't a good person for her, but now, he regretted that choice like nothing else. When he sees her talking to the flowers, he takes the broom and crosses the street.]

Kohaku-chan?

...Well, thank you anyway.

[The plants are not particularly helpful. They have a lot to say, but it's hard to make sense of it. Has so much changed?

Just as she finishes her conversation, someone calls her name. It's a voice she doesn't recognize, but that means little, all things considered. She straightens up and turns around to face the speaker, surprise evident on her face.]

Yes?

From:

[It is her. After being gone so long, Okita had thought she would never return and yet...here she is.

Okita smiles broadly and steps forward, forgetting for a moment that she might not remember him at all.]

It's good to see you again.

From:

angelicamber

It's... nice to see you too? [She's lost. It's painfully obvious.]

From:

ahappylie

[Ah....The smile fades slightly at the edges, but he really should have expected this. He's back to full bright happy smile in a moment, not wanting to make her sad.]

My name is Okita Souji. I'm here to welcome you to Luceti.
