[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.

[O-Oh, straight through the heart.]

People are brought here from all kinds of different worlds, but they haven't died. Time just stops back home until we're sent back.

[Hesitantly:] ...what's the last thing you remember before you woke up?

Oh...that's good then, I think. I'm not sure I want to be dead yet.

[...and yet he feels like he said something wrong.]

I was helping Pamela with chores...if time stopped, does that mean she won't finish until I go back?

[Perhaps it's a sign of how much Ion's changed in Luceti that hearing someone casually talk about their death sounds so... jarring.]

[And yet those next words bring a smile to his face... with perhaps a bit of relief as well.]

I don't think that's something you'll have to worry about. It'll be like you were never gone at all. [...] Had you perhaps been staying with Pamela and Oliver before you came here?

[florian smiles too, at that. it's one less thing to worry about, after all.]

That's right. They're very nice. Do you know them too?

Yes, I do. I'm a friend of Anise as well.

[A name, he assumes, that Florian may be familiar with, if he's staying with Pamela and Oliver.]

Oh! She's a really good friend, isn't she? I like her a lot.

[his smile grows wider at the mention of anise - in fact, he lights up considerably.]

[Awww. His smile grows a little fonder as well.]

Yes, she is. She's here in Luceti, as well.

[...oh. How do you tell someone they probably won't be remembered? ): That's probably going to be a little difficult to explain...]

[Thankfully, hey, they should have arrived in the barracks by now! Go change, girly-boy.]

She is? Is she nearby? Will I get to see her soon?

[it's been a while since he last saw her, the idea of meeting her again is pretty exciting.

...and once prompted, he will immediately throw off his dress and attempt the mystery that is shirt and pants.]

[Hopefully he won't need any help with that mystery, because Ion's already turned around! ...though the possibility did cross his mind, if only because he remembers getting dressed by himself for the first time.]

[But... Florian didn't look 11, he looked 14. Was he one of the original replicas? It didn't seem like there was any other possibility, after all.]

She should be at back at the house right now, but you'll be able to see her in a little while... although there's something you should probably know about this place first.

[he manages well enough on his own, with his limited experience, and shakes his arms and legs in an experimental manner after getting all his clothes on.]

..? What is it?

People come from Luceti from all kinds of different worlds. But sometimes, the people from the same world may arrive from different points in their life. That's why we're both here, even though we've never on Auldrant.

Different points? Like...the past and the future?

That's right. You and I are both probably from different points in time. I would be from your past.

And Anise... is from a point in time even further in the past than myself. I'm afraid she may not recognize when you meet her.

......So Anise doesn't know me at all?

I'm sorry, but no. She hasn't met you yet. [Then, quickly:] But that doesn't mean she can't still get to know you here.

[.....thinking about this. thinking very hard. also looking like that kind of dejected where you just want to crouch down on the ground in a corner somewhere.]

But...then what about my name..?

[A-Aww, new replibro! ;A; Ion sets a hand on his shoulder.]

...I'm sorry, Florian.

[he won't cry though. no, no crying. he looks back up at ion.]

......She won't go away though, right?

No, she isn't going to go away. [Not unless she goes home, but-- that's a conversation better for another time.]

If you want, you're welcome to come live with us... Anise lives there as well. I'm sure everyone would be more than happy to have you.

[he nods at that, taking comfort where he can find it. that's right, at least she won't leave.]

Okay. I'd like to be with everyone.

Well then, shall we go? [And he offers out his hand. Let's go to your new home, replibro!]

[another nod, and he takes the hand. to our new home! the land of people who've never heard of florian. florian's okay though, because he's got his bro.]
