[ She removed herself from the wall, walked across the room, and then back -- enough to stop next to the flower's stem. ]

It is level. [ A pause. ] It feels level.

[ She felt no magick on her, nothing to make her feel enchanted, but the magic, or simply even powers, of the tower were foreign to her. Accepting that, Fran casts Esuna on herself.

Nope, still wonky as hale. At least her headache's faded. For now. ]

[nemophila]

Is it?

[Jun had watched her carefully, and not removed himself from the wall to try it himself. He walked around a few paces and sure enough, it seemed to be completely flat. Just to be sure, he even knelt down and placed his palm flat against the floor. Sure enough, completely flat!]

But... how...? [WHAT HAS SCIENCE WROUGHT.]

[forsakenwood]

[ Science doesn't work this way!! It is but a pale imitation!

Well. Fran was no brainiac, but she was PRETTY SURE it didn't work like this.

What had they been told...

Ah. ]

A competition. They mean to test our endurance with a setting that brings unrest.

[ Sounds legit. ]

[nemophila]

They want to test us with corruption of physics ad Euclidean geometry...?

[Well that was...interesting? He supposed it was kind of working, since his rather scientific mind was boggling.

Nevertheless, he stood up from the ground and brushed his hands off a bit.]

I guess that makes sense... Though, then again it still doesn't make sense.

[Siiigh.]

[forsakenwood]

[ Ad Eucliwhat. ]

They are meant to be subtle, I think. A quiet nagging in your mind that something is wrong.

[ The duller senses of a hume worked in their favor. ]

[nemophila]

[Fancy math nonsense!!

Though really the thought just made him more sick than the actual space did. He was trying to resist going back to the wall and trying to figure out the corners thing.]

I...guess the point is to just ignore it...?

[forsakenwood]

[ Her gaze flickered downwards for a beat or two. ]

Yes.

[ For how long...? 8|a ]

[nemophila]

[He continued staring at the walls of the room, trying to discern the corner visibly and reconcile them with the circular shape he saw but....yeah that was giving him a headache. And, was probably not ignoring it.

So he shook his head to rip his attention away and looked at her sheepishly.]

--Um.. [Right ignoring!!] My name's Jun Kurosu, by the way...

[forsakenwood]

[ She tilted her head in acknowledgement. ] Fran.

[ She shifted again, placing more weight on one foot, and placed a hand at her hip. ] Have you any comrades in this place?

[nemophila]

[He smiled and nodded back to her.]

Um, two of my friends are in the tower... I saw them earlier, but I lost them...

[Yeah he kind of. Got nervous from the crowd, whoops.]

[forsakenwood]

Perhaps you ought to find them.
