mallowhallow | [video&action for orlea]

[Assassin has been dutifully following her Master's orders, tracking one of the natives as part of the "game" he proposed to her. Sometimes, though, something else catches her eyes, and she finds herself distracted from the task at hand. This is one of those times.]

[Her target lives in Orlea, and from what she has gathered, music is one of his primary hobbies. So, it's no surprise when tailing him eventually leads to her following him into a store centered on as much. She has never really had the chance to listen to music before, much less any of the modern sort, so it isn't long before her attention falls away from him and onto the racks of CDs.]

[This is the backdrop when she decides ask a question of the populace at large. She wastes no time on an introduction or an explanation when she opens her mouth.]

What kinds of music are good?

[After this question is asked, if anyone is in the area and interested in stopping by the store, they may find Assassin inside, headphones held over her ears as she listens to whatever CD she happens to be sampling at the time. She has been picking what to listen to by how much she likes its name, which is maybe a little childish, but she is a child.]

Huh? [She stops when he does, looking toward the building he has focused on.] Shouldn't you know?

Things change here a lot. [But! Going to go investigate.]

They change? [But, she follows after him. After all, if neither of them know, there's only one way to find out.]

Every night. [It is, in fact, a restaurant! Doesn't appear to have pizza, though...]

Doesn't that make it hard to find your way around? [No pizza, but Assassin leans up on her toes slightly to peer around. Maybe there's something else here she's interested in trying...]

[Well, there is a lot of delicious looking food on people's tables...] A little, but I don't mind.

[Well. She makes a mental note of this, so she doesn't get confused when she's ~~stalking him~~ exploring the area later.]

Are you hungry?

[She doesn't really get hungry or need to eat, but that's besides the point.]

[He doesn't either, really.] No. But those look interesting... are you?

Oh. Do you want to eat?

[Well, she'll just rephrase her question, then.]

Sure. [But if she doesn't want to, he doesn't mind if they skip it.]

Okay, then let's eat.

[She likes trying new foods.]

[Pharos heads in and sits down at a table (which is luckily appropriate for this place), taking a menu from the waitress who comes around. He's not sure why she's smiling at them like that.]

...Do you know what any of these are?

Um... Not really.

[What is a hamburger? We just don't know.]

[hm... but look, he has an idea!]

Maybe we can both pick something and then share, so we can try two things! [this is genius right here.]

[That idea apparently pleases Assassin, since, though she doesn't smile, her eyes brighten and she sits up straighter in her seat. Go teamwork!]

Okay! That's a good idea!

[And then she immediately shoves her nose back in the menu, trying to decide what she wants to try. The pictures are a little surreal and not strictly helpful, but she'll make do.]

[Well, Pharos has picked one of the special hamburger... things. He'll just point at the picture and ask for that when the waitress comes around again.]

[And then lunch was pie.]

I want that!

[She doesn't know exactly what "coconut" is, but coconut cream pie sounds fun.]

[Oh, that looks good too. The waitress just seems to think they're cute, so she brings them something to drink before going to get their food. Pharos is still smiling as she leaves.]

I hope they're good.

Uh-huh! Me too! [She sips her water and lets her legs swing where they hang from her seat, obviously happy with this turn of events. But, if they're going to be waiting...] Um...! What were you saying earlier? About "the Fall"?

What about it? [He thinks the name is pretty self-explanatory, but.]

Well, I mean... What is it?

It's the end.

The end of what?

[Her tone turns a little graver, since she can tell that this is serious stuff.]

The end of everything.

Everything? [That seems to surprise her.] Why would people want the end of everything?
