Characters: Maka Albarn and you
Setting: Room 2-19 and around the tower (pick a floor)
Format: Actionspam but I can switch to prose if you want
Summary: Maka's exploring the tower. She's not amused.
Warnings: Cursing probably. Also, if you could fill this permissions post that would be great!

[Maka wakes up, expecting her bedroom with the sun shining through the windows and Blair curled up next to her, but instead getting the panic of sleep paralysis and the weird disorientation of waking up in a completely new room.]

[First, Maka goes to eat breakfast. Oatmeal, which is gross and kind of makes her want to throw up. She's got no interest in trying to mess around with the communication terminals, so she starts trying to figure out how the layout of this tower works. The half-hour ride down from the dorms to the cafeteria gave her an idea of just how big the place is, but somehow she didn't didn't really get it. It's huge, and every floor is weirder than the one before it.]

I'm V/V. Is there anything you want to know about this place?

[the_word_is]

Is there anything important that's not in the letters?

[heavenscorpse]

What's in the letters? I've been here for a while so I haven't read them recently.

[the_word_is]

[Maka sighs.]

Never mind. I'll figure it out myself.

[heavenscorpse]

Oh... I'm very sorry.

[the_word_is]

It's okay. Maybe you should read through the letters again.

[heavenscorpse]

I'll do that. I really do want to help.

[the_word_is]

You can borrow mine if you want. I'm done with them.

[heavenscorpse]

Okay. But, um, is there any other way I can help out first? I don't read quickly.

[the_word_is]

Well, how long have you been here?

[heavenscorpse]

Eight months, I think.

[the_word_is]

... Eight months?

[heavenscorpse]

Is that a long time?

[the_word_is]

Yeah, it is.

[heavenscorpse]

I'm sorry. I wish I had better things to tell you.

[the_word_is]

[Come on, Maka. Courage.]

It's okay. I'll be fine.

[heavenscorpse]

If you need anything, I'll try really hard to help out.

[the_word_is]

Thanks. And if you need anything, I'll help you too!

[heavenscorpse]

So we can be friends?

[the_word_is]

Sure! I'd like that.

[heavenscorpse]

[She flutters her wings and smiles.] You can never have too many friends.

[the_word_is]

So, what do you like to do around here?

[heavenscorpse]

Meet new people! Or, there are lots of movies to watch, or you can spend time on the meadow floor...

[the_word_is]

The meadow floor?

[heavenscorpse]

There's lots of floors in the tower. I think the meadow is the prettiest.
