❈ 001 ❈ [Action] & [Video] Why a rat tho?
[Olivia, unfortunately tends to stick out like a sore thumb. Especially when she's feeling particularly uncomfortable. She didn't stick around The Bay for long, and instead wandered south toward the Gate for Fayren, clutching her new belongings tightly as she wove through the streets of Genessia with a sense of absolute apprehension about her.
She held herself stiffly, her shoulders hunched, head ducked in close to her body as she generally avoided eye contact with most of the ... more intimidating residents of the city. She does stop eventually, however, at a small bench. Her feet ache, and honestly her whole body hurts from holding herself in such a defensive position. Finally sitting down she lets out an exhale as she allows her hands to worry together in her lap.
Where is she? What is she supposed to do? How did she get so separated from the rest of everyone else? Even Robin and Chrom... Eventually she picks up the video phone and very tentatively starts to fumble with the device -- which may well be a spectacle to anyone in the vicinity as she quite nearly drops it when it turns on, straight to video.]
I..it's on? Is it doing something? [Her voice is meek, but curious -- despite the video only really showing the sky at first. Eventually her face comes into frame and she tilts her head at it. It's supposed to be something to communicate with right? Maybe she could find out if the others have found themselves in this place too.]
I wonder who can see--- [Just as she tries to muse through the device the scurrying figure of a very large rat taptap tappas its way over her feet and .... before she knows what she's doing, Olivia is screaming. Scaring herself and the rat in the process.]
YeeEEEK!!!! [Olivia's grip on the device utterly fails -- considering she tosses it into the air in her fright fueled panic, and the last the feed sees is a spinning and utterly discombobulated view of where Olivia was as it flies into the air, and then lands on the ground only a short bit away.]

[action]
and hit on her if she was.]Are you alright? Did it bite you?
no subject
After a moment of processing just what was said to her, she relaxes just a little.] N-no. I don't think so.
[Her cheeks flush a little as she glances to the ground. How embarrassing.] I was just startled... I don't really understand what's happened, or why I'm here.
no subject
Almost.]
It's alright. None of us here really know what's going on. But I'd be more than happy to help you find a place to stay. That's the first big step.
[Somewhere like... His bed.]
[video]
no subject
S...sorry there was a rat and... [Now she's embarassed, her cheeks pink with color.] Sorry!
no subject
[Video]
You... alright, hunny?
no subject
I'm... I'm okay just a little lost and t-there was a rat. I didn't mean to shout.
no subject
Yeeaahh, they're pretty gross. I'm gonna guess you just woke up here, right?
[Video]
no subject
It's gone now, I think. I just wish I knew where I was. [Lost? No. Never.]
no subject
video;
Are... You okay? I mean I know people have already asked, but it doesn't help to ask myself. But um, I guess I could ask if you need help. That might eb the better question.
no subject
It's just a little frightening being here by myself. I don't know where anything is... [Or how to work any of the technology to be honest.]
no subject
[She can excuse that. She felt sorry for the girl.]
I'm sorry to hear that, but I agree it can be. But the people here or at least a good number of them are very nice and are willing to help. Like I am.
action
what sucks more is getting smacked in the head by a pendant as it flies through the air. he has minimal time to react - thrown off by the sound of a woman screaming and then the fact that something just nailed him in the head. in an instant his sword is drawn, aimed at olivia purely out of instinct.
the necklace falls to the ground with a clatter, the rat scurries off in a panic and they are left at a very awkward standstill. uh. ]
no subject
She doesn't even manage a scream this time, just a choked yelp as she lifts her hands up in front of her and tightly shuts her eyes, despite the tears spilling from their corners.]
S-sorry!!! I'm so sorry! [She opens up one red eye, her body shrinking back from the weapon.] Please, please put your katana down!
no subject
Calm down. I don't have any reason to run you through. [ not yet anyway. doesn't mean she needs to be so reactive though, god damn.
slowly, carefully, hijikata reaches down to pick up the necklace that smacked him in the head a moment before. it looks the same as the one he received earlier, so that must mean she was brought here against her will, too? maybe. ]
Here. [ he hands it to her and keeps her at arms length just in case. ] Try not to throw it this time.
no subject
Um... you... you aren't new to this situation too, are you? I mean, finding yourself in this place. [Maybe, hopefully, this guy might have a bit more insight to what's going on. It's too bad she's wrong as fuck tho.]
no subject
he wants to believe it's the latter, but a part of him will be on his toes just in case it's the former. better safe than sorry. ]
...You figure out how to use that thing? [ he asks finally, reaching for his own necklace hanging off the sash on his hip. it's... cracked. because he might have stabbed it once or twice. shut up. ]
video;
[ Seriously, it's just a rat. Weiss is pretty sure she should at least be able to handle holding onto her communicator. ]
no subject
Sorry, It startled me.
