genessia | [Open] A Strange Foreign World

Sakuya floated quietly next to her pod, fiddling nervously with a butterfly knife. She scanned over the pamphlet again, her jaw tightening before tucking it away in her pocket. Lifting the phone she turned it over in her hands, fiddling swiftly with it, the video feed clicking on, the maid's lovely face appearing in any nearby screens, her eyes flicking nervously around the screen, several curses murmured in french... After a moment she sighs, frowning, pursing her lips, the feed switching off.

Closing her knife, it vanished from her hand, taking a moment to straighten her apron and headdress, floating elegantly over the water and out into Genessia, raising a hand to shield her eyes from the sudden light. Her jaw tightened, the maid closing her eyes, forcing her shoulders to relax before drifting to the edge of the water.

Hand wrapping around her watch she let her senses expand, brushing against the fabric of spacetime. This was not her world. It wasn't even a hidden or unexplored part of her world, nor was it an illusion. This was bad... At once she set out toward the city, trying to still her frantic heart, time and space rippling a little in her wake.

She had to find her mistress quickly.

[Selina hadn't really spent her time getting to know people here. No, in fact she preferred to keep her distance for now. After all there was no need to make friends, she only needed the one. The one she had to save. Which is why she was quietly walking around Genessia, looking at what was around, what she could use and thinking of ways to gain the power that she would need.

She wasn't all to happy with the lack of magic one could take, but it didn't mean she could try and find a good enough source. As she thought about it she spotted the other and wondered where they off to in such a rush. She couldn't help but be a tiny bit curious as to why.]

There's no need to rush you know.

Sakuya paused, the strange aura of distortion flaring a little accompanying a faint, almost eldritch pressure. The maid flickered, and quite suddenly the pressure was gone but the slight distortion remained. She took a small breath before bowing deeply at the waist. She was dressed in traditional french maid attire though this was clearly an actual uniform as opposed to a costume. She also appeared to have a black strap wrapped around her left thigh containing several knives. The silver chain of a pocket watch draped from her apron.

"Excuse me if I startled you." Her speech was very formal, colored by a slight accent. "But I must find my Mistress. Where is the Scarlet Devil Mansion from here?"

You didn't startle me.

[She wondered if this woman actually realized that the odds of her home being here were pretty much slim to none. Unless she was extremely lucky anyway.]

Ah, I've never heard of such a place around here. I don't believe it exists.

"... I see. I feared as much." She closed her eyes, exhaling sharply. Her hands were restless, opening and closing. "My name is Sakuya Izayoi. Forgive me. I just woke up in a strange silver machine a short distance away. I have been to other worlds before but I was always aware of the move." She bowed her head. "I need to find My Lady." Despite her professionalism there was a hint of fear there.

"I am her head maid. Working for her is all I've known for many years." A pause, raising her head to look at the woman. "I really hope she's here. Or better yet, how do I get home?" It was really wishful thinking on her part, but what else could she do?

"...Selina" She said not really giving much away for the moment, instead she for once listened to the person. "Considering we all come here in those pods and without people we know, so I'm not that surprised it happened to you as well."

"Your not in Kansa's any more and like Oz there isn't a way back unless you talk to a wizard." She said shrugged slightly. "Okay that is a lie, but there isn't a way to get back to your Lady unless she comes here."

"It's nice to meet you." Another formal bow, the maid taking a moment to smooth her apron after straightening up again. "Forgive me. I was born to a dying world in the west and moved to Gensokyo with my Mistress. I do not know of Kansas or Oz." She took a long, shaky breath, curling her hand into a fist.

"I am My Lady's left hand. Unless she comes here I must find a way to try and get home... I cannot accept that there isn't a way back."

Yeah, hat made sense that she wouldn't know of earth sayings at least, so she doesn't say anything to explain as there would be very little point. Crossing her arms over her chest she gave a small smirk, this person was so convinced that there might be a way back and that was somewhat laughable.

"I'm sure if one dies one can go home, or if your lucky whoever brings us here will get bored and make something happen for you. Those are pretty much your choices." She wasn't sure about the first one however.

The maid frowned deeply at her remark. She wasn't stupid, nor was she foolish in her desire as far as she knew. she was simply single minded in her goal, as many of the best servants were.

"No one can be sure of anything when death is involved." She didn't bother going into how she once confronted the judge of souls. "Though I can't readily say that you are not wrong." Her voice had a slight edge to it. "But I can't possibly imagine hell would be much better than my current situation."

She crossed her arms, drumming her nails on one arm. "As for 'whoever' brings us here... I believe I shall find them and have a word with them. I have solved multiple incidents in the past. I doubt there will be much different here.

Selina couldn't help but give a small shrug. "That's even if there is anyone who brought us here. Might just be some magic and sure magic can be used by people it may not necessarily be a person."

She paused after she spoke, it was quite fun to watch her reaction, but at the same time she can only do so much. "But I do wish you luck."

"I see..." She may not have very much magic herself, but she was certainly familiar with it. Her watch pulsed subtly as her thoughts turned to it. She paused and raised a hand to again shield her eyes. They were such a light shade no doubt the bright light was starting to bother her. She stepped a bit off to the side into some partial shade.

"Thank you. I do owe you an apology. I've been getting rather emotional. This is a poor first impression. You've been very helpful. If you need assistance currently or in the future I would be more than happy to repay that kindness."

"No problems, but I'm sure I would need assistance any time soon. She had started to think maybe it was time for her to head off, after all she had things she needed to do and ideas to think up for now.

"But, it was nice meeting you and... hope you find who you are looking for. If they are here of course."

"Thank you. Truthfully if 'The Scarlet Devil' were here she would have made herself well known to the residents. My Lady is very fond of making a grand scene." She bowed deeply. "Thank you. And I wish you fortune in your endeavors as well." If Remilia wasn't here then it would be best to get situated as quickly as possible. Information and a means of security are her top priorities. As well as keeping her eyes and ears peeled for the signs of her mistress.

Maybe someone will hire her...?

Selina didn't have much left to say as she gave a small bow before turning on her heels and heading on off. She didn't walk far before she turned her head, giving a small glance back.

"I wish you well on whatever you decide to do." Whether she was being honest or not was something that would never be known as she walked off.
