001; Voice + Action

[Anise had been through some pretty weird stuff lately, but waking up in a completely unfamiliar place all alone might just take the cake. The island isn't anything like the places she's been to either, and she's been to quite a few. Her first instinct is to try buddy up with the locals, but when all the answers she get are annoyingly vague, she finally turns her attention to the weird journal she has with her. A quick trip to the fountain later, she's marginally less confused, but all her earlier questions are replaced with new ones.]

[She does take a moment to keep flicking through the journal though as she tries to work out how to use it. Huh, seems like there are plenty of new arrivals like her. She better introduce herself and find a crew too! Especially if it meant she'll be able to find that ruby by doing so.]

Hey everyone! My name's Anise Tatlin, and I just got here! [Now, should she play for sympathy or boast about her own skills? Maybe both.] It's pretty scary being here all by myself, so it'd be great if someone can let me join their crew! I'm a really quick learner and I'm great at finding treasure!

[And...one last thing that's been bothering her. She assumes a thoughtful pose.] There's a bunch of weird-looking entries on the journal. Does this kind of thing happen a lot around here?

Action;
[A new place! Anise spends most of her time exploring, first trying to find a way to get home, then slowly growing enchanted with her new surroundings. She rummages through the Backwater Brig and the market, and tries to talk her way into a tavern or two. Maybe this will finally be her chance to try some alcohol...!]

Nice to meet you Anise, I'm Finnian. I'm sorry that you are scared, but don't worry. I've found there are plenty of nice people and they are very helpful.

[Yay! Someone nice she could (maybe) take advantage of later!]

Aww, that's great! You've been here for a bit then, right?

Not for very long, a month now at best.

[That was actually the longest he probably has been away from home though.]

[A month...?]

That's a pretty long time.

[She could be stuck here for a month?! That's...really not good news.]

[...Well, what do you know.]

You're late, Anise. We already found and spent all the treasure.

[That voice...!]

Colonel?

[Whoa, it really is the Colonel! She suddenly feels x10000 times better about the situation.]

Colonel! You're here too! Is Ion with you?

[...Wait. Her excitement takes a distinct shift towards the unimpressed.]

Boooooooo. What do you mean you spent all the treasure?

I'm afraid it's just me. You missed Luke by a few weeks.

[This is going to take some explaining, something Jade isn't that fond of doing... but he'd be lying if he said he wasn't somewhat relieved, too.]

You know how it is. Carrying valuables around with all this pirate business could be detrimental to your health.

[So...no Ion? She doesn't know enough right now to know if that's a good thing or not.]

Missed him?

[And cheshire cat smile activate!]

Pirate business? Oooh, don't tell me you're breaking the law, Colonel!

Ahhh, so many newcomers... How troublesome...

Hey! Are you calling me troublesome?

[Despite that indignant tone, she's not actually that upset.]

Very~!

I am sure you did not envision dying so soon after arrival, but you must understand it is a necessity!

Hey-o, Anise, nice to meet you! My name's Henry!

Oh, and uh... don't pay too much attention to Mana and Alice. They're not like this normally.

[Finally! Someone sane! Jade clued her into what's going on, but that didn't mean she still can't vent about the situation to someone who sounds sympathetic.]

They really could have fooled me! It's bad enough that I'm stuck here without people suddenly ganging up on me!

['Someone sane', oh Anise, if only...]

Ah, sorry about that, that sucks! Usually they're both really nice, but they starting acting all weird a little while ago. Well, weird for them I mean!

It's probably because of a curse or something, so I'm sure they'll go back to normal eventually though!

Anise huh? We'd love to let you join our crew. Couldn't hurt to have more bodies around.

Yay! Thanks for the offer! [More serious now, though.] But I've seen someone I know, so I might stick with him for now.

[...Maybe. After all, two people from his crew already want to kill her. Not exactly a warm welcome.]

[She's responded with a haunting bout of laughter.]

*Adol's also wandering around, trying to figure things out in this new place which definitely doesn't look like anywhere near Felghana. He spots the young girl roaming around the market, holding a journal like his own. Maybe she possibly knew something?* Excuse me! Did you just arrive here too?

[Waaaah! Finally, a guy who looked just as lost as she did! She runs up to him, then proceeds to try fling her arms around him.]

I did! I've been so scared and alone...

*woah hey now that's sudden! Adol's a little taken aback at first but then pats her on the shoulder.* It's...it's going to be all right. We just need to get our bearings wherever this is.

There's been a massive increase on journal communication this week, which ones seem weird-looking to you.

Edited 2014-01-11 02:47 (UTC)

[She thinks back. It isn't hard.]

Well, there were a bunch of threats, some really crazy-sounding laughter, property damage too by the sounds of it...Oh! And a weird woman who's saying she can take us home!

Weird-looking entries? How so?

If you mean people asking a lot of questions, talking using puns, or asking about ship-related things then that's all completely normal!

Edited 2014-01-11 03:53 (UTC)

Yeah, that kind of stuff sounds pretty normal. What I've been seeing so far totally isn't! Unless people are usually violent around here...

...Oh right, that.

Yeah I haven't a clue what that all means.
