Action | Outside the Bay
[Cas, clad in torn, form-fitting jeans, a tank top, and a black leather biker jacket, stands with her arms crossed, watching the hologram of Weiss as she explains everything. Her eyes dart to the maps the hologram indicates and she takes one, sharp brown eyes scanning over first one map, then another, of each of the five cities, glancing up every so often to look around.
None of these smells were familiar, except the normal smells of a city: oil, exhaust, asphalt, mortar...city smells. It didn't smell like New York, the place she'd just been, but she was thankful for her metabolism to burn off the whiskey she'd had...however long ago.]
Kidnapped? [She wasn't talking to anyone in particular, though she was looking at the map at the time.] Who would want to kidnap me?
[He breathes a sigh, pocketing the cash in her wallet (at least that was still in her pocket).] Well, thanks, kidnappers. Don't mind if I do.
[The place didn't feel safe, but after two years on the road, she'd gotten used to the feeling. It seemed late, though not as late at it had been back...home? Yeah, home was as good a name for it as possible. She wrapped the necklace she'd been provided around her wrist and looks around, the looks down at the phone that had been in the box. It's a lot more fancy than her own prepaid model, but it's not like she's never used one.] Other kidnap-pees, huh?
Audio
[The voice that comes across the feed is young but mature, and while she doesn't sound exactly shy, she does sound a little uncertain about the whole thing. From the sounds of it and the wind, she's also outside.]
So...this just goes out to everybody. That's...different. [Yeah, Cas. They heard that, too.] I guess that makes this easier. The hologram just sort of casually mentioned there being other people kidnapped here? I guess it's nice to know I'm not alone. [And...I have no idea what to say to you people, or what to expect. There aren't any other weres here, at least...?] She also mentioned some sort of visitor's center, but it's a little late for that. [Maybe? Probably?] Is there a cheap hotel somewhere around here?

Audio;
[Airy still has most of hers because someone else is paying the bills.]
Audio;
Uh...thanks? Which way am I headed?
Audio;
[There is an unsure pause and a rustle as Airy turns and tries to remember which direction is correct.]
Right. I can't pronounce the name of the inn but it's a Japaneses style inn. They make you take off your shoes and everything.
[Which Airy finds interesting.]
Audio;
You sound really happy to be here. [And she sounds confused by that.]
Audio;
Before I came here... I was running away.
[She shrugs but only realizes later that Cas can't see it.]
I guess I'm as far as I can run. I can't be found here.
Audio;
And before your little adventure, you'd never tried doing anything like it, had you? No sneaking out, nothing?
[Because really, who just says "I was running away" like "I ran to the store for milk"?]
You know, unless you can guarantee no one from your world will ever show up here, that's really optimistic. [A pause.] Whatever you're running from must be pretty bad. I'm Cas.
Audio;
I have not... I guess that's obvious.
[She had been a very good kid.]
I am... honestly not that optimistic..just honest. [She can't help that she says the first thing that comes to mind.] I'm a really bad liar. [Which she is also honest about.]
I'm Airy. It's nice to meet you Cas.
Audio;
And that is very good to know. [Bad liar, huh? Because now she's curious.] What are you running away from?
Audio;
I didn't want to hurt my family. I did sneak out once in high school with my best friends. Only it didn't really feel all that bad since I'm sure mom would have let me go if I told her.
[Her mother always trusted her.]
Audio;
No offense, but you don't sound dangerous.
Audio;
[She lets out a slow breath and begins to run her fingers through her hair as she spoke.]
I don't want to be dangerous but I can't really control it.
[At least not yet.]
Audio;
Audio;
[Thinking about that would be bad.]
It's a little hard to explain... I don't know what it is... and I don't have a name for it.

Action
[Her voice is soft as she walks up to the new girl. Her bright watery blue eyes focused on Cas while a small rose twirled between her fingers. Terra smells somewhat human but there are also scents around her that Cas wouldn't be familiar with, mixed with that is flowers, dirt and tea leaves.
Her arm is holding the basket of flowers, her green curly hair pulled back in a tight pony tail with wisps of mint curls framing her thin cheeks. She's wearing a tight red dress and leggings.]
Action
Oh, yeah. I get kidnapped all the time. [And her smile broadens as though to say "that was a joke".] Cool hair.
Action
Thank you.
[That's the first person who complimented her hair. The only other person who noted it asked if it was dyed.]
I'm sorry that you ended up here.
Action
[She continues the friendly smile, though it falters slightly at the girl's apology.]
...it doesn't really seem so bad, once you get past the whole kidnapping part.
Action
I'm not and it isn't all the time.
[Like any place it has it's ups and downs.]
I live in Attleton. [Her expression softens.] I own the flower shop.
[Which Cas can probably guess.
Terra pulls the rose she had been fiddling with from her basket and holds it out to Cas. It's a bright ruby red which almost clashes against Terra's pale skin.]
Here, it's all I have to offer. If you'd like it.
Action
She looks curiously down at the rose she was offered before taking it. It smelled good, but a lot. She hadn't stopped to smell many flowers in the last two years, so she didn't really have anything to compare it to.]
...thank you? [She sounds uncertain, but she's never really had a strange girl with green hair give her a rose in the middle of the night, either.] Have you been here a long time?
Action
Attleton is to the south. [Or so the mun thinks.] It's a quieter place.
[At Cas's question Terra's expression becomes thoughtful.]
I've been here for about half a hear but I was here before that. It seems that time passes differently here but I don't really understand it.
Action
What's quieter about it, and what do you mean you've been here half a year, but were here before...?
Action
[She takes a small breath before continuing.]
I woke up here again over half a year ago and I've been here since.
Attleton is a smaller town.
Action
[There is something slightly creepy about the way Terra just says things without any sort of inflection.]
...do you like Attleton? [Do you like anything?]
Action
[She answers in her usual soft voice. When she asks about Attleton however Terra smiles, her tone became lighter.]
I do. My friends and my flower shop is there.
Action
...you really like flowers, don't you?
