[hello luceti. there is currently a (possibly familiar) green-haired child hiding behind community building 5, wearing a pretty new-feather dress. are those pretty? i think they're pretty.

the kid looks kinda scared, huddled against the wall like that, and shivers on occasion while poking around with the magical bookmunicator.]

...I wish this book was a map.

They have maps at the welcome center!

[video]

[positivelycharged]

But where's the welcome center?

[ video ]

[magentarific]

Uh.. Where are you? I can tell you how to get there or come find you to take you there if you want.

[ video ]

[positivelycharged]

I don't know...that's why I wanted a map.

[ video ]

[magentarific]

Well describe what's around you and I'll come get you.

[ video ]

[positivelycharged]

Well, um. I'm at this really tall building...and there's another building over there... [after a moment's pause he tries picking up the book and showing off the surroundings.]

[ video ]

[magentarific]

[ She's definitely grateful for the video tour, since his descriptions weren't helping. ]

I'll be over in a bit. If anyone asks, you're waiting for Yurippe.

[ video ]

[positivelycharged]

Okay. I'll wait right here.

[and he obediently settles himself back down on the ground.]

[ action ]

[magentarific]

[ In about ten minutes time, the same girl that was on the video comes around looking for him, peeking around corner and stuff until she spots him. ]

Hey!

[ action ]

[positivelycharged]

[he almost jumps at that, but--oh, it's that girl. florian gives her a tentative wave.]

Are you the girl in the book?

[ action ]

[magentarific]

Yes. I'm Yuri. Or Yurippe. Most people around here know me as Yurippe, since there's another guy named Yuri going around.

[ action ]

[positivelycharged]

Two Yuris? Is the other Yuri in the welcome center too?

[ action ]

[magentarific]

No, the other Yuri's the leader of this group called Brave Vesperia or something. [ Or something. Really, she thinks that name's too fancy. The name of the group who built things for others back where she was from was just "Guild." ] I'm the Yuri who's the leader of the SSS.

[ action ]

[positivelycharged]

What's the SSS?

[ action ]

[magentarific]

Shinda Sekai Sensen! [ Afterlife Battlefront. Damn these acronyms for not translating right into English. ] Don't worry, we're alive here. It's just a name, we haven't come up with a new one yet. We're planning on getting everyone back home if they want to go.

[ action ]

[positivelycharged]

--I'm glad we're alive, that's good. [he's not sure he understands the rest, but. alive!] Do you know how to get back home? I want to go back if I can.

[ action ]

[magentarific]

Not yet, but that's what our entire purpose is going to be. Finding a way home for those who want to go and keeping everyone free from the Malnosso's kidnapping and experiments!

[ action ]

[positivelycharged]

Oh, I hope you find it then. Kidnapping and experiments aren't good at all. Could I help too?

[ action ]

[magentarific]

Of course!

[ action ]

[positivelycharged]

I'll do my best!

[ action ]

[magentarific]

What's your name?

[ action ]

[positivelycharged]

Oh, I'm Florian. Um...nice to meet you!

[ action ]

[magentarific]

You too, Florian! [ She grins and holds out her hand. ] Let's get you to the welcome center though.

[ action ]

[positivelycharged]

Okay! [he happily takes her hand, ready for her to lead the way.]

[ action ]

[magentarific]

[ Ah, this little guy is just so cute.. Yuri holds his hand and starts leading him back toward the welcoming center. ]

So where are you from?
