Room 1-03

[She can't move. She can't move. She can't move.

There's fear in her, her heart is racing, and Karolina's not able to do anything but sit and wait. Then she violently jerks up, surprising even herself. Everyone around her should be used to this kind of thing by now, but that doesn't keep her from going]

Floor 4

[A pretty blond girl's pressed up against the glass, peering outside the tower. The way she's looking out there makes it clear that she's new here, that she hasn't seen something like this before. She lets out a breath against the window, then draws a little :( face in her reflection. Then she turns, as if to walk away.]

Floor 12

[Here, Karolina's not a blond anymore. In fact, she's barely a girl, instead, she's a swirling , fluid movement of sparkles and bright rainbow colors in the shape of a girl. Her clothes remain on, but everything else seems more fluid than solid. She flies about the room, examining each part of the projection in detail, then watches as the entire universe is swallowed. Her features remain steady, but there's a sinking feeling in her stomach.]

[Floor 16]

[Karolina isn't stupid enough to jump off- but she is here, in her rainbow alien form, hovering a slight distance from the staircase. She seems debating if going any further is a good idea or not.]

Floor 12

[princesspowerful]

[Molly liked to come to this floor to look at the stars, it was a good place to come and relax and just get lost in the beauty of the stars. Except. There was now something that was definitely not a star. And that something looks oddly familiar]

--Karolina!!

[lesbointhesky]

[She knows that voice. She knows that voice!

It takes Karolina two and a half seconds to turn, and dive down towards Molly, her alien form falling away as she went. She takes a perfect landing, not even stumbling as she falls into step. It takes two steps and another two seconds for her to throw her arms around Molly in a hug.]

Molls!

[princesspowerful]

[Molly runs at Karolina and hugs her tightly- but not too tightly]

Karolina! I knew you would come eventually! Are you okay? You're not hurt, right? When did you get here? Are the others with you?

[lesbointhesky]

[Thank god for that. Karolina gives her a nice warm hug.]

Molly, what are you talking about eventually? We were just together! I was going to ask you that! I just woke up here a little bit ago.

[princesspowerful]

Nuh uh! I've been here for months and months! [she looks upset, she isn't lying, she promises! She really has been here for a lot of months] What did we do last? Sometimes people are taken from different times.

Floor 16

[thegirltwin]

[Nina climbs the stairs gingerly. Cain showed her most of the Tower before he vanished, but there are still a few gaps in her knowledge with how long she was gone, and now new floors have appeared too, and she wants to be acquainted with all of them.

There doesn't seem to be much on this one, though, except a beautiful hovering form. Nina gasps at the sight, though she feels rude for doing so. There are a lot of people who look differently than she would expect in the tower. But this...person?...needs to be warned.]

Don't. I... Don't. I don't think you should go any further.

[lesbointhesky]

[Karolina spins as soon as she hears the gasp. A girl. A pretty one at that. She can't help but stare a moment, before she blinks, and smiles gently.]

You know, I was just thinking the same thing. [Actually, she does feel like plunging into the darkness right now, no matter what monsters are hiding down there. But she's not going to just say that.] I was just... noticing how dark it was.

[thegirltwin]

[When she smiles, Nina smiles back. If she notices that Karolina is at all taken with her, it doesn't show, and anyway, she can't help being a little transfixed herself at Karolina's appearance. She has never seen any such thing before.]

I know what you mean. It's frightening, isn't it? Sometimes I feel like something is going to come out of it. There are so many strange things here. [Her smile turns a little sad.] But I don't think we've met before. I'm Nina Fortner. Who are you?

[lesbointhesky]

[Karolina's used to stares, so she doesn't take it personally. Instead, she floats closer to the staircase, a faint trail of glitter and colors following after her.]

I wouldn't say I'm afraid of it. The other room downstairs- the ones that showed the worlds with no stars, that frightened me more than this. [She blushes a little when she realizes she just said that, then falters when Nina asks her name. She might as well not bother with fake names- if she's stuck here, it's not as if the avengers can show up and drag her off to alien-prison.] We haven't- I'd have remem-- I just got here. My name's Karolina. Have you seen a little girl with a bunch of strange hats around?

[thegirltwin]

[Nina stares at that, awed in a good way. It's so pretty!]

That's one of the worst ones. [Her eyes cloud over at that. She doesn't want to believe the things the Tower wants them to, especially when it's so adept at illusion and she knows that. But sometimes, seeing that, it's hard not to...] I think the fifth floor is worse, though. I'd stay away from it, if I were you.

It's nice to meet you, Karolina! A little girl with strange hats? I -- I don't think I've seen anyone like that today, but this is such a big place. She could be just about anywhere. I could help you look, if you want? I don't think this place is safe for a child on her own, anyway.

Floor 4

[token_vengeance]

...really.

[Erik watches the girl, raising an eyebrow.]

If you're unhappy about being here, do something about it. Drawing little faces on glass is little solution to anything.

[Erik is always the pleasant one, truly.]

[lesbointhesky]

So, should I have drawn a star or something else instead?

[token_vengeance]

How about you draw nothing.

[He rolls his eyes.]

I will never understand people in this damn place.

[lesbointhesky]

How about you mind your own business?

[She's wiped the window off with her sleeve already, but the annoyance on her face lingers.]

[tempustemporum]

...is that supposed to be a frown?

[Karolina, have some little kid who just randomly appeared right behind you. He is looking at your :( face quizzically.]

[lesbointhesky]

Yeah. [Little kid gets a smile.] I'm not that artistic.

[tempustemporum]

...and... what was the point? [Is she performing some kind of frowny face-based magic???]

[lesbointhesky]

There wasn't one. I was just bored.

Floor 4

[lucidmutant]

[When Karolina turns around, she will find a slightly started and enormous green man standing a few feet away. He takes a step back - he didn't intend to intrude, but he was curious about what the girl was drawing.]

[lesbointhesky]

[Karolina of all people should know about not judging people based on their appearances, but when she turns and looks, she jumps a little. She can't exactly turn her face into a smile either.]

Uh- hey?

So very late

[lucidmutant]

Um. Hello. [That jump and the expression cause him to step back a bit more.]

I apologize - I did not intend to startle you, miss.

Floor 12

[myblueskies]

[Romeo watches the sparkling creature for a while before finally speaking] Are you a fairy? She seemed like a fairy, and he had quickly come to reason that everything he had ever heard of in fairy tales, good or bad really did exist.

[lesbointhesky]

[She twirls and floats her way over to Romeo- he's just a kid, no bigger than Molly or Klara. She's not sure what to say, but she does smile a little.]

No, but you wouldn't be the first to call me one. [oversized tinkerbell. ugh.]

[myblueskies]

[He smiles back] What are you then?

[lesbointhesky]

I'm a Majesdanian. [She feels like putting on a show, so she goes for another swirl around the room, all glitter and rainbows.]
