Day 199 - Exposition and Rockbell

Who: Alucard or Ghaleon, and anybody
Open: Open!
When: Day 199, mid-morning for one, noonish for the other.
Where: Near the kitchens, or around the Bastion
What: Alucard's awake and hungry, and Ghaleon doesn't feel like being in the hospital anymore.
Format: Preferably action.
Warnings: probably none for Alucard; sass, and mentions of death from Ghaleon



[Alucard is a man who likes to sleep. He actually likes to sleep even more than he likes to eat.

Just as he likes to sleep, Alucard is also one who can sleep heavily enough that he appears dead, and for long periods. As such, he sometimes finds himself in that predicament that some people experience where they wake up and are unsure of what day it is. In his case though, the problem is... a tad more extreme.

Hence the somewhat odd question he asks of whomever he encounters near the kitchens (What? He's hungry):]

What is the current year?

---------


[A full day confined to a bed, and Ghaleon finds he's had enough of sitting still. Between the work the boy doctor had done and his own spells, surely the damage had been healed enough to not risk reopening a wound as long as strenuous activity is avoided. Perhaps it's a bit of an unnecessary risk... but a place like this is no good for thinking deeply on the world. And so off he went.

Making his escape out the front door of the hospital, Ghaleon thinks once again that fate is an odd thing. Here he was, a man who was supposed to have been days and a thousand years in the grave, walking across the grass of the town at the end of the world. He'd been prepared to die (again) to allow the true heroes their best chance at saving the world he loved so dearly, and yet somehow he is again the last relic of a time and place now lost forever.

In any other situation, the sheer irony of it all would have been enough to make him laugh. As is, he's sure that he may cry when he has a place he can do so where no-one can see.

And now? Now he just wants to explore; perhaps find someone who can help him find something that would perhaps be more appropriate to wear around humans than a hospital gown. The mazoku doesn't particularly care himself, but humans do seem to have a bit of a thing about having a minimum amount of clothing they're comfortable with others wearing. Perhaps it's different with the apparent mixing of cultures here... but he sincerely doubts it.]

[His ears perk up ever so slightly at the sound of a small person trailing along behind him, and casually looks over his shoulder. The sight of white hair and red eyes are enough to startle him slightly; when was the last time he had seen someone who shared those traits with him? How long since it had been a human?

In the end, he supposes that even a surprise such as this (and it is a somewhat pleasant one) is hardly reason to be rude, particularly to a child. He turns fully towards her and smiles.]

Hello. I am Ghaleon.
aprettyred: (Oh what's that?)

[ Surprise, there's a couple white haired people here. Anna is only sure of one having red eyes though. ]

I'm Anna. This is Mikoto.

[ The fluffy fire bug, who stops at Anna's feet and gives a lazy sounding buzz. ]

Do you want to find a place to stay?

[ She already kinda knows you're new here, Ghaleon. Its a psychic thing. ]
four_quarts: (Nothing much to say.)

[Mikoto seems like something that Mia would have liked... But back to the matter at hand. He figures he's distinctive enough that it's really not hard to pinpoint that he's new, so the lack of that question hardly seems strange to Ghaleon.]

Yes, I suppose that would be a good place to start.

[ And you don't really have clothes, as far as Anna can tell. She doesn't care at all, but. ]

There are apartments over this way - [ Anna turns and points toward the river. ] and a tower with more rooms there.

The apartments give a better view of Paar's field, so if you don't like big dragons, maybe not there? He's very nice, though.
