[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.

[positivelycharged]

A giant purple....thing. I'm not sure what he was but he was scary.

[that is the best definition she's getting from him, sadly.]

[action] /punts away the question mark

[failguardian]

Well, at least he can't be the Grand Maestro when he's a giant purple thing!

[Yeah just...roll along with it, Anise. You can tough it through this weirdness!]

[action] oh no that poor question mark...!

[positivelycharged]

Um...I guess so, yeah!

[not entirely sure what you're talking about but let's go for a tentative smile, yes. ignore the tears in that icon.]

[action] it does not belong! Don't pity it!

[failguardian]

[By that time, they're at the front of the house. Anise turns back to look at Florian.]

Does this ring any bells at all?

[action] but...!

[positivelycharged]

Bells?

[he looks at the house, then back at anise, shaking his head.]

[action] Who's the wiser one here? >|

[failguardian]

[SIGH] Well, it's gotta wear off eventually. Come on! I'll show you to your room.

[action] You? ;u;

[positivelycharged]

I have a room? [is it ion's room?]

[action] Yes yes so you have to obey me ^u^

[failguardian]

You live here! I think the Malnosso did something weird to you so you think you're Florian.

[action] o-oh well if you say so...'^'

[positivelycharged]

But I am--[then again if anise doesn't remember naming him florian, then maybe he isn't florian anymore..?]

[action] shhh shhh relax and just say yes....

[failguardian]

[...Oh, oops, she's making him upset.]

Don't worry about it! Whether you're Ion or Florian or whoever, you still need a home!

[action] yes...!

[positivelycharged]

[well he does like having a home.] Do you live here too, Anise?

[action] /spirits away for adventures in subjugating question marks

[failguardian]

Yep! A lot of our friends live here. Tear, Natalia, Nephry and...I guess you're friends with Dist. Sorta. [DOES NOT APPROVE.]

[action]

[positivelycharged]

I am? Who's Dist?

[action]

[failguardian]

[...This is even worse than she had thought.]

A reaaaaally bad guy! He's mean and rotten and vain and selfish! [A pause.] ...Well, I guess he can be nice sometimes. But you have to be careful around him!

[action]

[positivelycharged]

Really? Is he really that bad? But how can he be mean and selfish and nice..? [one of these traits does not seem to fit...]

[action]

[failguardian]

[STOP POINTING OUT THE FLAWS IN HER LOGIC]

That "nice' thing only happens sometimes! Booooo, it's not important! Just be careful, okay?

[action]

[positivelycharged]

O-okay...I'll be careful.

[HE'LL ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOU ANISE even if you...think he's ion....]

[action]

[failguardian]

[Dragging him inside then!]

And here's your room!

[action]

[positivelycharged]

--Here?

[looking...!!]

[action]

[failguardian]

Do you remember anything now...?

[So much hope...!!!]

[action]

[positivelycharged]

[...shaking...his head.....]

[action]

[failguardian]

[Sighs and forces a quick smile.] How about you change out of that dress, at least?

[action]

[positivelycharged]

...Okay. [are there clothes in this room let's look around]

[action]

[failguardian]

[Better get out before he starts stripping...!]

I'll be in my room if you need me. [Oh yeah he might not know where it is.] It's the last room down the corridor!

[action]

[positivelycharged]

Oh--okay! [oh he found the clothes! let's just start stripping now then. is the door still open--]
