genessia | 1st Book

Action: Genessia Bay
[It had only felt like a few minutes since had left Genessia, only to return back at the Bay. Belle was admittedly a little confused the moment she left the Bay and looked around. Things that she remembered being around didn't seem to anymore and things that weren't were there.

It made her wonder just what has happened or more importantly just how long had she really been gone. So the first thing that she was planning on doing was to explore Genessia and figure out that answer. Should she come across another person she will pause for a moment before calling out.]

Excuse me? I know this might be weird but can you tell me the date?

Action: Genessia Library
[When she wasn't looking around Genessia she was in one of her favourite places. The library. Her fingers traced the outline of the spines of various books, looking for one that pings her interest. Soon she paused at the spine of what seemed to be a storybook, one that she had not seen before, so she was admittedly curious as to what was within.

Pulling it off the shelf she started to head over toward the nearest table, a small smile when she saw others with a nose in a book.]

That looks like an interesting book you have there. What is it about?

[Rosinante startles when he's spoken too, so deep into the book he's reading that he actually falls out of his chair, all nine feet seven and a half inches of him sprawled out with his feet in the air. And insult to injury, the book lands on his face. Hard. Oww...] It's about fermented foods around the worlds, and how cultures thrived because of the ability to pickle and ferment. [Just gonna push himself over, and up. He's too heavy to really use the table to brace himself on, he'd break it.]

[Belle couldn't help but flinch for the poor guy. She hadn't honestly expected to startle anyone as she did, so she couldn't help but feel a little bad about it.]

I'm sorry... I didn't mean to startle you.

[But she at least got the answer and now she was interested.]

Sounds like a very interesting book. I must read it sometime.

It's fine, it's fine. You wouldn't be the first to startle me.

[He groans as he finally flops himself onto the too small chair, the weight of his body making it creak.] If you like seeing how societies made do before modern conveniences, it's an interesting read. And there are so many good recipes in it! I keep taking pictures of my favorite ones, but I'm not sure if I'm ready to commit to a fermentation hobby.

[She watched for a moment before moving to find a seat to sit down.]

I like a good read, no matter what it is about. If it is interesting I will probably read it. Plus I did come from a world that didn't have modern conveniences. [Though she knew not the last world, but before the Curse.] So I guess I would have some idea of what that might be like.

We had some modern luxuries, but nothing like Genessia has. [Rosinante sighs, pulls a pack of cigarettes out of a pocket, and then groans as he puts them right back in. Not in the library. Not in public. He really needs to quit but it's killing him every time he tries.] How are you adjusting? [It's nice having someone who doesn't seem bothered at all by his height to talk to him. He's scared off people here before.]

Nova City has even more. It's really intimidating at how much there is there.

[Belle had made sure to place the book that she had picked up in front of her, ready for when she was going to read it.]

I am adjusting better than if I had arrived here th first time. Though I am having to adjust to how long I wasn't here for. [She paused, she was pretty much sure that made no sense.]

I mean... I was here before, so arriving here again is much easier to adjust. Though I admit I was last here some years ago.

It's amazing. And overwhelming.

[Rosinante finally flips through his book again, stopping to take a picture of a recipe that looks particularly appealing.]

I've been here for a few months without leaving. So I've had time to adjust without being jerked around at least.

That's good at least. I mean who knows how long we will be here for. So it's good to adjust and just do what we want while we are here.

[She just hoped things would be better than last time. Sure, she knew of ways to better defend herself if needs be, but she also had moments that she wished she didn't remember.]

What do you do here? For work, I mean?

It's better to live in a world that leaves you stunned in a good way than to suffer in a place that makes you miserable.

[When she asks about what he does here, he tilts his head. Goodness, he does a lot honestly.] I do some volunteer work when I can find it. But otherwise I work at Sycamore Cycles. [A pause.] And you?

That's a very good way o seeing it.

[She looked down at the book for a moment, her fingers soon tracing the cover.]

Right now, I don't have a job. I am still adapting to being back.
