[When Memo wakes, she is completely calm. Blinking and then finding herself in unfamiliar surroundings is quite common for her. What does take her by surprise is tripping out of her pod clumsily. A cute black diary slips out of her hands as she tries to steady herself and plops into the shallow water.

Minutes later, Memo can be found on her kneels right outside of The Bay. She has her head down as the strange, wing-like appendages on her head flap frantically. On closer inspection, she's trying to dry the pages of her diary, which lays open on the pavement. The flapping is also causing her free red bills to fly away, but she doesn't care. A few are folded into origami shapes and one has a bite taken out of it.]

... I cannot read it. What do I do?

[Later, that same girl is on video. This time, her headwings are folded and nestled into her white hair, almost out of sight.

She gives the camera a deadpan stare.]

I am Memo, a disposed of Demon.  I request aid. 

I am able to compensate you for your trouble. I can remove an unpleasant memory. I am also gifted at origami. I can even make the samurai hat. My request is for food, shelter, and memories of my recent arrival here.

Thank you for your generosity. [and just like that, she hangs up. Or tries to. The video is still running as she takes out her diary and tries to review the content.]

[Baldur had mostly enjoyed the small amount of chaos that had occurred with his little spell. But while it powered him enough for, later on, he still felt he needed to do more. See how far one could push before getting noticed. But he found himself pausing as he saw red bills fly past. Well that was certainly new.

As he walked he was looking for the source and once spotted he caused, both curious and just being himself he spoke.]

What the hell are you suppose to be?

[If only Ted were more attentive to his surroundings, then he might've rescued that precious currency. Alas, all those bills will be lost in time, like tears in the rain.

Words, on the other hand, are all too present. Another stranger to help! Just what he's always wanted.]

You ask one literate, of course! Which I am, and would be happy to do, upon providing a name.

[memortalized]

[Memo lifts her head, with the wings spreading open from surprise. They're a touch more emotive than her actual face.]

Demon. I deal with memories. [She tilts her head curiously.] What the hell are you supposed to be?

[memortalized]

[Memo folds her wings as she looks up at Ted, then back down at her diary. After a brief pause, she shakes her head.]

Memo. [That's her name.] It won't help. The pages are ruined. The ink is smeared. [Her attention goes back to the diary, which she tries to fan dry again.]

[youfool]

Oh, I see. I'm sorry to hear that. How did it happen? What's the damage?

[demonofbadluck]

A demon of memory, huh? An ability I've not seen before.

[He knew that with them being a demon, he could be at least a tiny bit more comfortable. But yet since she didn't seem to know who he was right off the back as most demons do, he knew different worldly demon... So he wasn't sure if their thoughts on certain subjects would be the same or not.]

Also demon, but I don't deal with memories. Just fire and bad luck.

[memortalized]

Is that so? Then I am implored to inform you that I have been banished and may not accept your aid. You are my superior and I do not intend to burden you with my questions.

[memortalized]

I did not expect to wake up surrounded by water. The fault is mine. If my reflexes were up to par, I would not have dropped it.

[She peels two pages apart delicately, but the ink is now run together and the writing impossible to decipher.]

Surely there must be a way to salvage it?

[demonofbadluck]

[That sounds about right. Well he hadn't planned on offering help, but there was always something deep down that he felt like maybe he should/ But usually it was covered by many other emotions and thoughts he knew a demon like he should have.]

I wasn't going to offer aid, princes don't help. But in all honesty, there would be a limit to question time anyway. it's better to observe the world around you and pick things up from there.

[memortalized]

I cannot store memories in the longterm, so my own observations are rarely of any use to me.

[She holds up her ruined diary.]

I must acquire another of these. And a pen. I have no way of storing longterm information otherwise.

[youfool]

I'd say you're a prophetess if you did. [He bends down to see. Yup, that think looks totally hosed.]

There might. Care for a short walk? I can't make any guarantees, but there may be one who can put it back to rights.

[demonofbadluck]

[He sighed slightly.]

There are stationary stores nearby you can go to, I suppose.
