Rehearsal 3 (5/22): [Video, from Astralfield]

[The audio feed gets turned on before the video, meaning that anyone on the network will be subjected to a few moments of black accompanied by grunts and grumbles before the view switches to what looks like a vast expanse of white. A moment later, Victor pulls his head back, looking absolutely furious. As he continues to move back, it's easy to see why -- and to see why he apparently had such trouble turning his communicator on.

He's wrapped up in what is clearly a straitjacket.

Not only that, what is visible of his Astralfield hotel room has a distinctly white and padded look. Victor glares up at the ceiling, then at the chalkboard.]


THIS ISN'T FUNNY, ASTRALFIELD!!

[A beat, then some of the anger leaves his face, replaced by a sort of bone-deep weariness and sadness.]

Could -- c-could someone please come here and free me? The room number is 6988.

I was doing so well too. . .

Very strange.

[And she needs to get his mind on other things, she realizes.]

You play the piano?

I haven't been to that district before. Today's my first time out of Orlea, actually. I could go with you, if you wanted to check it out.

[Another smile.]

First time for everything, I suppose.

[And a nod.]

Of course. I'd like to see it too.
esper_child: (Happy)

Oh, yes, of course.

[She stood up and moved toward the door.]

I'll, ah, just wait for you outside.

[Terra had taken a moment to put her hair back in its customary ponytail while she'd waited.]

Let's.

[This gets a small, but confident smile.]

If they did, I'll take care of it.

[She shakes her head.]

I've never seen anything like that, though I saw some people flying a couple of months ago. It's... surprisingly calm and normal. A little more advanced than my world, but I think I'm adjusting.

Technology in my world is... strange, really. There's some places that have quite a bit of it, like the Imperial capital of Vector or the kingdom of Firgaro... and other places throughout the world that are are relying on coal and steam.

Me either.

I've no idea where I grew up, where my hometown is, but I know I was kept in Vector for some time.

We had trains too, and ships, I know that much. And even more advanced machines, depending on where you went. My friend, Edgar, is an incredible inventor.

[Terra's eyes went wide with surprise, the good kind, a kind of pure wonder.]

Oh.... oh goodness...


This is... amazing.

[If she had more memories or more context, Terra might be more nervous. Instead, as a largely blank slate, she'll settle for wonder.]

It's incredible. Do people live in those buildings? Some of them look like they could house a whole kingdom!

Don't worry. I'm right here. We'll get this place figured out together.

[Terra took her own step over the border, nodding slightly when she had done so.]

Hopefully not. I...

[She craned her neck upward as they continued into the city proper.]

Wow. Just... wow.
