[Just what was Ib doing? She remembered going to the art museum with her parents but..... Where was she? This wasn't the Fabricated World or even Guertena's exhibit. She was in some sort of..... pod thing? She saw some necklace, some weird device, and..... her rose? What was her rose doing there? Didn't she leave the Fabricated world? She immediately dropped the other things to grab her rose. This was her lifeline, after all. There was only one petal....

A vase. She needed a vase, stat! Looking around, where would she find one? Would that... water there work? Well.... Should she dip her rose in the water...? Or was this going to be like some of the locations in the Fabricated World where that was a bad idea? Dipping her hand in the water first, she decided it was safe enough to try dipping her rose ever so slightly until... the rose was in full bloom. Letting out a relieve sigh, she got out grabbing the other things to look around until she saw.... a pamphlet! Good! This might help explain what was going on. She tried to read it, but she didn't understand it that well. There were a lot of words that she didn't get.

What was this device near the pamphlets though? She just didn't expect to see it pop out at her, causing her to flinch backwards before she decided it wouldn't hurt her. A moving picture? Was this supposed to be "The Lady in...." well White in this case?

Hello, my name is Weiss Schnee, ??? of the ??? Company from the world of ??? and present CEO and founder of the ??? here in ???.

She didn't understand a lot, but one thing was for sure.... She was stuck in some weird new place with a strange name. Gen.... ness....eeeah...? No way back.... sounded a lot like that art gallery, but she'd just have to figure something out. She needed to find Garry. Garry pulled her in with him after all. Garry would know what these words meant. She grabbed one of the maps just in case.

Where would she go though? If she was stuck here, than she'd need a place to stay but.... Well.. Where was this.... Home for Children located? Maybe they could help her out? With the things that she was provided she tried to look for this home that was listed.

[OOC: Feel free to catch her either at the Bay or on her way to Kusanagi and Haller Home for Children.]

                           V I D E O ;

[Ib really has no idea what this thing is.... Sorry to everyone and anyone.... because this little girl might have accidentally dialed your number while trying to figure out how to use the walkie talkie.]

--does this work? What is this for?

I.... I don't know where I am and I... I can't find Garry.

[OOC: She's going to be talking to herself for a while unaware that she's broadcasting. At least until she accidentally hits the button to stop it at some point. Until then, you might get a glimpse of a small girl trying to follow a map with a pretty red rose in hand.]

[Bundled up in a hat, coat and gloves and making his way back to the tea shop from errands he should definitely done earlier today, Luke spies the girl with a red rose and looking at the pamphlet from the Schnee company--and he knows right away she has to be new.

Most people who have been here a while don't bother reading those things.

The boy that approaches can't be much more than thirteen or fourteen, nervous brown eyes watching her beneath the brim of a blue hat. He tips said hat, blinking at her.]

Excuse me, miss? Are you lost?

[Action]

[delicate_rose]

[That's another thing that she'd have to worry about. She was still just wearing her usual grey long sleeved shirt, red ribbon, and red skirt. Shivering as she was walking on, she glanced up to the boy who spoke to her. He seemed... normal enough. She didn't see any rose, but the pamphlet and that Lady in White said this place was called..... Gen-ness-eah? It's possible there's no need for them here, but even so... Why did she have her rose yet then?]

Uhm... Y-yeah... I don't know where I am and I can't find Garry anywhere.

[It takes Luke approximately thirty seconds to realize she's shivering. Well, maybe a minute or so--she's gotten her whole sentence out, but that's not the point, since he notices because her teeth are chattering and he notices and that's what counts.]

Oh--

[The apprentice plops the bag of groceries he's carrying at his feet and starts undoing buttons and in a few seconds he's offering his coat to her. He's small enough that it's probably not going to be too over-sized. Underneath, he's wearing his typical blue sweater and beneath that a white long-sleeved shirt. It's cold, but he'll survive well enough for now.]

Here, here--you'll catch cold.

[His accent is strongly British despite the fact that he hasn't seen his home of London in over a year, and as he hands her the coat he crosses his arms to retain some warmth.]

This is Genessia. It's--um, I know it's scary. I woke up here last year by myself too. But there are a lot of nice people here who can help you! [Luke crouches down and picks up the bag he was carrying, glancing down the street.]

Helping should probably start with getting out of the cold though, it's right freezing out here.

[A grandfatherly man in a suit appears on the device, waving gently before he speaks.]

It's a videophone. You use it to communicate with people that are far away.

You're in Genessia City. [From the sound of it, though, he doesn't exactly know what that's supposed to be, either.] Did you not get a pamphlet?

[He's curious about this "Garry" person, but he'll have to focus on one question at a time.]

Video

[delicate_rose]

[At first she didn't know who was speaking to her, so she was looking around for a bit until she glanced down at the device in her hand. She cocked her head to the side as she looked at the weird picture box. Sorry, you're going to get a weird short of part of her face and the area around her for now.]

Oh. How do you do that? [Oh right... a Pamphlet...] Uhm... I did but.... I don't really understand it that well.

[morelikeaslyfox]

[He explains a few of the different buttons; he assumes that "how" referred to "how do you use it", not "how does it work", which is a completely different thing altogether. When he's done, though, he turns to the subject of the pamphlet.]

If you have questions, maybe I can help.

[Since arriving a few days before Ib has tried to keep a low profile. Her arrival left bodies in her wake and she really doesn't want it to get back to her if she can help it. Her mask is hidden as well as her sword.

Her long hair is freely flowing behind her, the wind grabbing it and pushing it around her waist. She hasn't cut it in the last ten years as if to forget the little girl she used to be.

Her steps take her wherever, she isn't really keeping track of where she's going. If she's to find her painting then she needs to know the city as well as the others connect it to. She'd open a way to the gallery if she has to; all to get her painting. She doesn't want to be alone again.

Ib's steps then take her past the bay and a little further she sees a familiar sight. Much like the lady in red but instead of the painting it's a haunting vision of the past. A young girl, holding a single red rose. Her steps stop and her shoulders tense at the sight.

As if in a trance she steps forward quickly reaching for the young child's rose. All the while thinking 'it can't be... this can't be'.]

Ib?

[Except it's herself. It is the young innocent girl who wandered into that gallery. The young innocent girl who causes Garry's death. It was the young girl that Ib can never forgive.]

[Action]

[delicate_rose]

[Ib was still trying to figure out what what going on when someone called out her name. She turned to see who spoke to her.]

Garry is that--

[Wait... No... it wasn't Garry... But... Why did this girl look familiar...? Holding her rose securely, she studied the older girl, not sure what to say.]

[Action]

[killerrose]

[She swallows the feelings rise in her throat at the sight of the young girl clutching her rose.]

How... who are you?

[Ib's voice is soft, a threatening whisper from the older girl.]

The device is for being able to communicate with people.

[Belle figured she might as well try helping by pointing that out.]

As for where you are, unless you managed to speak to someone, which I will believe you are in Genessia.

[delicate_rose]

[Luckily someone else let her in on the device.]

So... Is there really no way back home...?

video;

[namemeansbeauty]

At the moment it's only luck that can make one go home. There has no no actual way that we are aware of.

[As much as she hates to admit it anyway.]

[Nagisa was on his way to doing his swimming regime that Gou keeps making him do. It was more than the others because of his job working in the sweet store, but he didn't mine. It meant he got to do something he liked both at work and afterwards. So with his bag on his back he was heading off when he spotted the young girl.]

Hello there, you look a little lost.

action;

[delicate_rose]

[Oh, look. A person that might be able to help her.]

Uhm... Where do I find the uhm... Children's Home...?

action;

[strawberrypenguin]

The Children's Home... [He places a finger lightly on his chin as he thought about it.]

I think I know where it is. I've passed it a few times.

[He cannot remember where it was from here anyway as he looked around.]

[truesmiles]

[Fai is just going to smile slightly as his way to be reassuring.]

I can't say I know of a Garry, but I find people you know have a way of turning up sooner or later. If you are lucky, so do not worry.

video;

[delicate_rose]

So... he might still be around?

video;

[truesmiles]

Possibly he is here now, or he'll appear later.

[Like Sakura did with him and Mokona as well, but he knew full well Mokona had gone.]

Just have faith.

[Hikari was currently taking a good few dogs for a walk, all happy to be out every once in a while. However one managed to pull out and run off toward the other young girl, wagging their tail happily as the young girl had to give chase.]

Come back here!

[She looked over to the other when she finally caught out, going to grab the lead.]

I'm sorry.

action;

[delicate_rose]

[Looking down to see the dogs, she cocked her head the the side before smiling lightly. She slowly brought her hand towards them as if to pet them, but waiting to see if it was okay.]

It's okay.

action;

[eighthchild]

[Hikari knew the dogs were friendly enough, otherwise she wouldn't take them for the obvious reasons. The dog was happy to see the hand and thus went toward it.]

That's good. I was worried you were that type of person who does not like dogs.

[Video]

[beautifulmidboss]

Yes, it is working, don't worry. I assume you just arrived here?

[Papa-wolf mode go!]

My name is Vyers. You're in a City called 'Genessia'.

[Video]

[delicate_rose]

Y-Yes... Gene... nessia?

I'm Ib.

[Video]

[onewhostays]

[Shion frowns faintly in concern. It's too cold out to get lost.]

I don't know a Garry, I'm sorry. Is there anything around you that stands out? Buildings, street signs? You should head somewhere warm, there's a children's home you can stay in.

[Video]

[delicate_rose]

Uhm... I'm by that weird water place that I woke up on. Where would I find that?
