(Day 70) [Open; like so!] Apple Gels; almost like candy but fixes those bruises.

[notduchess]

Who: Lady"Duke" and hopefully everyone else at somepoint!
Open: Open
When: Day 70
Where: Near the monument -> Some space near the apartments, facing over the river
What: Duke would like to know things about any intended structure among the bastionites, and hopefully get some help for those people who can't fight.
Format: Action, GO HAVE FUN WITH THREADJACKING.
Warnings: HOPEFULLY LOTS OF TALKING??

[ So it probably really wasn't Duke's place to try to figure this out, but after all the missions, and the people showing up - and Seimei's comments - it was feeling like a bit of a good idea.

There was no real need for a rigid structure, but some sort would be nice. So the knight is in armor as usual, although the sword is left behind, and trying to catch people after breakfast. Hopefully Duke can gather a group, because this really ought to be a group discussion. But it all starts similar enough- ]

Excuse me. If you wouldn't mind sharing, what's your opinion on a loose structure of order? At the very least, a system for keeping track of where everyone is. And if you can't fight, are you interested in learning, or simply learning something else?

[ Because they do not need missing teenagers, or people running off alone, only to end up confronted with a creature they can't deal with on their own and someone to protect. Sorry, Rin. And really, the knight's just worried about all these teens... ]

Comments

[aswaitsthesky]

[There is a jerk and gasp of startlement, but Shion looks more sheepish than afraid as he straightens up and turns to address the man who caught him so blatantly listening in.]

A-Ah, yes?

[buildingthefuture]

[Ah... another kid. That's going to be a bit of a strain. Still, Osahar offers a reassuring smile.] Haven't seen you around before; are you new? I'm Osahar Solarin.

[He waits to extend a physical greeting, though. His experience is that all cultures are different, so he waits to see what Shion does, and will mirror that. Unless he does nothing, naturally.]

[aswaitsthesky]

[He's almost an adult, okay? Though... a really rather naive and sheltered one...]

Asahi Shion! I just arrived, yes. Three days ago. I think... it's still all a bit overwhelming and blurred together. [Especially seeing as what all this came up on the tail end of too...]

It's nice to meet you though, ah... Is it alright to call you Osahar, or is that too familiar? [He's realized that they all come from different cultures too in theory, so may as well be polite and make sure.]

[buildingthefuture]

[Close, but not quite. Ah well. The fact that Shion seems a little overwhelmed takes precedence, and the engineer nods.] Osahar's all right, and I'm glad to meet you. Sorry I didn't greet you earlier.

Is... there anything I can do to help you get acclimated?

[aswaitsthesky]

Ah, no no, don't apologize. [He waves his hands a little to emphasize that there was no need for that.] I've been out to help out yesterday, but otherwise, I've been keeping to myself with my friend, just trying to sort all of this out.

Have you been here long then? It sounds, well, I heard them talking, and it sounds like no one has been here very long...

[buildingthefuture]

Oh? Who's your friend? [He must have been really out of it. Then again, with how busy he's been...

Ah, and there's the question. Osahar shakes his head.] No, not too long. I think that no one's been here for... mm, no more than two solar months or so. The Bastion was never meant to be a permanent living space, after all. I'm not sure when exactly the catastrophe happened, but it was pretty recent.

[notduchess]

Ah, Nezumi?

[ Oops Duke has moved over to you, eavesdropper teen and Osahar. ]

Agreed, as far as I know, no one from other worlds have been here terribly long. Three weeks or so before me, and I've only been here... three days more than Osahar.

[aswaitsthesky]

[Shion is at least grateful that he didn't get caught eavesdropping by one of those he'd been listening to anyway at least.]

Ah, Duke! Hello, yes, Nezumi's the friend I meant. [He gives the knight a smile and then looks back to Osahar to explain.] We woke up here together on the Skyway.

But... doesn't anyone else find that odd? That no one has been here that long...? I haven't asked around after any others much yet, but are there any that claim to be from this world?
