[ It's a little peculiar to Sertoria to have the brochure with her, but certainly it's not unwelcome at all. Although, she's a little curious as to who would have the power to put her on another planet. It's an Earth-like planet, that much she can surmise. However, everything else feels... off, foreign. She knew that there was quite a lot to figure out with her time here.

As the feed starts, there's a youthful woman who looks dressed as if she's from another time period altogether. There's not much on her beyond a simple white tunic, bracelets adorning her wrists and a rather intricate looking necklace. ]

--Ah! I was not aware that this was recording. Hello, if anyone is there. I am Sertoria Cani and if there is anyone on the other end of this device, it is a pleasure to meet you. The items I awoke with are much appreciated and I will make sure to use them wisely.

...Enough about my rambling. Although I believe I am to find my own shelter, food, and supplies, I am not sure if there is anything else I should be doing. If anyone would not mind helping this old soul out, I would be in your debt.

Thank you for your time.

[ She awaits for any answers at all rather patiently and with a bright smile on her features. ]

{ Now there's a familiar name... but Sertoria looks different. Very different. That's why he doesn't turn the camera on quite yet. }

Well, well~ ☆ Look who finally showed up. I was wondering if you'd make it off that Tower, too!

[canbebrave]

I just arrived as well, and according to the others here, that seems to be all there is to it.

Get some new outfits. You can't wear the same thing every day, and you'll want to stay in style.

[have_hat_will_travel]

Good evening. I'm Pidonus Marasia, a local bard. For now, those three are the most important. There's plenty of local work if you know where to look, and even a fairly basic job should cover the essentials.

[ A brow rises at the voice, briefly wondering what this person means. ]

My apologies, sir -- I do not remember ever being in a Tower. Do you mind clarifying?

[ascendedbeing]

So I see. Thank you very much, miss. At least it is not that hard to do so, correct?

[ascendedbeing]

[ A blink and then an incredulous expression remains on her features for a brief moment. ]

I... I was not aware that my state of dress was that bad.

[ For the first time in quite a while, she's stunned speechless. Good job, Quinn. ]

[ascendedbeing]

Good evening to you as well, Pidonus. I will do my best to seek employment, then.

[cuteisawayoflife]

It looks so old-fashioned. And even if it weren't you can't just wear the same thing all the time, it looks like you're too poor to afford anything else. [Way to be tactful, Quinn.]

video

[ascendedbeing]

If it is that much of a problem, I could try to change it. ...And, well -- is it wrong to not be concerned with worldly possessions?

video

[cuteisawayoflife]

Just try to mix it up a little. I can help you pick out something really cute, if you want! [Just because she's not home doesn't mean she can't keep up with her Fashion Club duties]

video

[ascendedbeing]

I--

[ Well, she really doesn't have anything here to her name here, so-- ]

Very well. It could be fun.

[Video]

[melodiouspacifist]

I think that's all, I managed that much on my own. Unless you want to hear a song, all your bases should be covered.

video

[cuteisawayoflife]

Great! My name's Quinn Morgendorffer...where are you exactly? I'll come get you as soon as I can.

video

[ascendedbeing]

By the bay, Quinn. I have not yet left where I woke up.

[ A pause. ]

Are you okay to go by yourself? Perhaps you should take someone along just in case.

[Video]

[ascendedbeing]

I would love to hear a song. Are you a musician?

[Video]

[melodiouspacifist]

I am a musician!

[He's suddenly much more interested. He summons his sitar out of nowhere.]

What kind of mood do you like?

video

[cuteisawayoflife]

I think I should be okay...um, but of course, there's probably a cute guy I could get to escort me!

video

[ascendedbeing]

Actually... How about you tell me where you are? I may not have a keen eye for fashion like you do, however I am rather great at navigating my way around.

[Video]

[ascendedbeing]

Ah, terrific! It has been quite some time since I heard music.

[ A smile and she relaxes. ]

Any. In fact, I would love a surprise.

[Video]

[melodiouspacifist]

I'll do my best to play you something memorable.

[He closes his eyes and tries to feel the music. His fingers moved over the strings, playing an upbeat, pleasant melody.]

[cuteisawayoflife]

I'm at home right now, actually. The apartments at Holly Ridge, I'm right in front of the building.

[have_hat_will_travel]

Do be careful, though. Plenty of nastier sorts about the cities here. Supervillains and such.

[ascendedbeing]

[ Holly Ridge... That's easy enough to remember. The videophone is levitated so that her hands are free while she walks from the bay and to the magazine rack. She finds the map easily enough as the message from Weiss plays, which she commits to memory. Once she locates Holly Ridge on the map, she nods to herself and turns her head to face Quinn again. ]

Be right there!

[ ...she actually means it quite literally. It doesn't take her more than a few seconds to appear just a little bit away from the apartment complex. Sertoria walks up, still dressed in her tunic and accessories, as well as a pair of laced up sandals. Once she arrives, a bright smile crosses her lips and she waves excitedly. ]

It is nice to see you in person, Quinn. I must thank you again for wanting to help me get some clothes so I can be in style.

[ascendedbeing]

Of course. I will do my utmost to keep that in mind.
