[unehelichkind]

[ So he might be seriously confused, but that won't stop Ed from exploring. So after having looked over the stuff provided, he heads out to get to know this new place.

As the Strahl candidate isn't exactly a shy guy, he doesn't hesitate to approach anyone he sees. ]

Hey, 'scuse me! Can I ask you something?

[ And then, as if remembering his manners: ]

I mean, hi, I'm Eduard. Would you mind if I asked you some questions?

Comments

[weapongeek]

Oh, sure. What would you like to know?

Hi, Eduard, I'm Ruby.

[unehelichkind]

That's a really nice name.

[ Stay on topic, Ed. ]

You don't happen to know if there are anyone from Kuchen here? Or a guy called Isaac, from England?

[weapongeek]

Oh, thanks.

No, sorry. I'm unfamiliar with those places, but it's possible they might be here and I just didn't realize it.

[unehelichkind]

Possibly. I guess I'll just have to keep an eye out for anyone I know. [ He has more things to know, though. ] Could you possibly tell me how it's like being in this world?

[weapongeek]

Well... It's definitely strange. Although I happened to arrive here and my friends had told me that I was here before when I had no memory. That seems to be a thing here. It's not so bad beside a few things here and there though.

[onlythepinkest]

[Sure you can ask people walking around normally but... Do you notice the girl walking on her hands instead of her feet? Once he's approached though, she brought her legs in front of her as they barely touched the ground.]

Sure! It's nice to meet you, Eduard. My name is Ty Lee.

[After studying him for a moment...]

You're kind of cute. Whatcha need?

[unehelichkind]

[ Now that's something you don't see every day. You see a lot of things when you live among the less fortunate in Kuchen, but not that - and it's been long since he moved into his dad's mansion. ]

Oh. Thanks. [ He's flattered. And blushes a little as he rubs his neck. ]

I was actually hoping if anyone knew where I might find any horses.

[onlythepinkest]

[The funniest thing is... Ty Lee's family is pretty well off. She's gotta stand out from her identical sisters somehow, right?]

Hmm... I don't think we have any of those here, but we could always check.

[unehelichkind]

[ He wants to be more of an adventurer than a politician, so that would be interesting to hear about. ]

Really? It'd be great to get some help looking.

[respect_points]

[Rikku often checks the Bay just in case someone else she might know shows up, but she's filling her pockets along the way.]

What do you need to know? I'm Rikku.

[Keep an eye on your bills, because you might find some of them missing later.]

[unehelichkind]

[ What a pretty lady.

What luck that he isn't carrying any money at the moment, then. Just don't steal the white ribbon he has in a pocket--it's his only connection to his sister.

Since he came to think about it, though... ]

Uhm. How does getting a job work here?

[respect_points]

[Drats. That's a shame. She has no reason to take the ribbon, so that's safe.]

Well, it's like any other place really, except you're more likely to find businesses run by other captives here. What were you interested in finding a job for? What kind of job I mean?

[unehelichkind]

[ Thanks, that's really nice. ]

I haven't tried finding a job before, so I don't really know how to go about it yet.. But something with animals or something to muscle.

[ Most of all he wants to work with horses, though. ]

[hashtagged]

Can you make it quick? I have to start my performance in a minute or so.

[ Did he just run into a street performer? Quite possibly. There's no theme park here for her to work in after all.. ]

[unehelichkind]

[ Oh that's distracting. And interesting. ]

Performance?

[hashtagged]

You'll have to watch. Was that your question?

[ Salama stop playing with your phone while you're talking... ]

[unehelichkind]

I'd love to. But no, it wasn't... I don't want to make you miss your performance though so if you don't mind could watch and ask after?

[bedeutungslos]

[ Augusta has been trying to come to terms with being the only person from Kuchen around. The name had not acted as a keyword to anybody when she'd made her introductory video, so the assumption that none of her countrymen let alone people she knew were here seemed reasonable.

All the more surprising, when she hears a voice from a distance that is familiar to her. She's above running over to check, but she might or might not be speedwalking. ]

You're... you're here as well?

[unehelichkind]

[ If Ed didn't put "exploring" as a priority over making himself known over the network, he might have made a more dignified first impression. But probably not. ]

Augusta! [ He's really surprised to find a friend in a strange place like this, but he's visibly much less tense - even if he wasn't all that tense in the first place - when he notices who it is, and he laughs a little. ] Seems like it, huh.

[bedeutungslos]

'Seems like it' is a pretty mild reaction to being brought to another world.

[ Just saying.... Of course, she commends his ability to keep calm and unbothered. Augusta takes a deep breath and lets it out in what sounds like a long sigh. ]

There isn't anybody else from Rosenstolz with you though or is there?

[unehelichkind]

It's a chance to see something new, isn't it exciting?

[ He wants to see everything, you know. ]

I haven't seen anyone, at least. It was just me where I woke up, and this far you're the only one from ours I've met.

[gullwingsgunner]

[When Yuna isn't doing her job, she is by the Bay or around Genessia buying a few things she thinks the home might need or food that will need to be cooked later. When she walked past the bay this day she turned her head, looking over.]

Nice to meet you, Eduard, i'm Yuna and I'll be happy to answer questions.

[unehelichkind]

[ ...this place really has a lot of pretty girls...

She sounds so professional though. ]

Thanks. [ So to start it off.. ] How does living here work?

[gullwingsgunner]

Living here? it really depends on where you want to live first and foremost.

[There were a lot of places after all.]

We have five cities to choose from and each city has places you can live, but some are more expensive as others so it would depend on your tastes.

[unehelichkind]

[ Five cities to live in? ]

So the cities are close to each other?
