⌐ First Hymn: Waking Up in Strange Beds ¬
Characters: Tear and You!
Setting: Dormitory levels, and then the first floor, third floor and the 101st floor.
Format: Preference for action spam.
Summary: Tear’s arrival to Animus!
Warnings: Um, an unhappy soldier?
Room 1-07 (Closed to Roommates)
[Hello, roommates, have a newbie! Tear’s just waking up… And she’s got some issues. First of all, she's not back in Yulia City. Second of all, WHO CHANGED HER CLOTHES! And third, she's got this collar on. She's not into this kinky stuff. So...
She's going to scramble around until she sees the note. She carefully reads it over a few times.]
Impossible! Auldrant's gone? Who is playing this cruel joke? Where are Anise and Natalia, because if they've put me in this ridiculous outfit for Peony's entertainment, when we've got our trip to Eldrant to take care of...Yulia help me I will smack them both.
First floor cafeteria
[Tear is looking over the menu for this strange place now that she's dressed in her OWN clothes again. On one hand, it reminds her a little of the Oracle Headquarters at the cathedral in Daath, but there is something innately sinister in the entire place's atmosphere.]
Hm, while none of these sound particularly bad, the flower theme's a little daunting [She's not talking to anyone in general. Just out loud.]
Third Floor Library
[Now that Tear has some down time, she's going to curl up with a good book and try to relax. She's currently browsing the historical novels to see what is there. The titles are interesting to her, but it takes a second of staring for the words to translate into the Fonic Alphabet she's been used to.
This entire place is going to take some getting used to for her. No Auldrant. Ripped away from her friends and her grandfather. No idea when or if she can even get out of this place. In reality, if she wasn't trying to still process everything, she might cry.]
What is this Pride and Prejudice? Is it any good?
Floor 101
[Unlike the beautiful meadow on the 25th floor, Tear feels completely alone as she stands in the midst of the hanging gardens. If you come upon her, you will only find her staring out in the vast open sky, not moving, not talking, not singing. Just staring with a blank expression on her face.]

No, I need to take my own part of the blame. I may only be seven, or... eight now, I guess, but it doesn't excuse how I acted. I should have looked outside myself a lot sooner than I did.
no subject
You both grew up in that house, and you're both so similar when it comes down to the basics that I think that with the environment and people staying the same, nothing from the outside would have changed things. Only Van's kidnapping of Asch and the 'birth' of you made any huge difference.
[She stared back down at their still joined hands and idly begun to pick at his long fingers as she gathered her thoughts.]
I'm sorry that my brother used you, or would have used you, so horribly. It was cruel of him.

no subject
You're right. So, tell me what's been happening since you got here?
no subject
Well, there's a lot... not all of it is good, you know.
no subject
After waking up here, I don't think there's much good news you could give me at this moment.
no subject
All right... well...
[He went on to explain everything, from when he first arrived and how confused he had been, to the Infighting event, where Jason had removed his ears and replaced them with headphones that kept playing a warped version of the fonic hymn. He told her about how Yu helped him stay sane, how he had been training him, and how much he had helped him in other ways. The Shadows were next, and how he found out what he really was, and Asch and Jade and Guy arriving.]
[It was a lot to go over, and it felt like he had been talking forever by the time he finally stopped. Luke still hadn't told her about last month... that was something for another time.]
no subject
However, just like the other redhead, she could tell that there was something missing, something important, but she didn't know how to make him tell her what it was. It was weighing on him, of that she was certain. Was it something so bad that he felt he couldn't tell her?]
Luke, Asch said that you've been here for a year, and you've confirmed that you were here first. I...I wish that I had been here sooner.
no subject
[Luke shot her a horrified look, shaking his head.]
I wouldn't wish this place on anyone. No on deserves to be stuck in this horrible place.
no subject
No, I suppose that I don't really want to be here, but I wish that I had come here sooner if only to give you support.
Asch told me that the admins can use your attachments against you. And I'd be lying if that thought didn't scare me just a little. But no one deserves to face what you've just told me alone.
no subject
[He fell quiet for a moment.]
...I've learned a lot here. About myself, about... well, everything. The only thing I can do is... try to keep going and hope we can find a way back to our worlds.
no subject
Well, having Asch ruin the whole Akzeriuth problem without you living through has its own pros and cons. I think that the only thing we can do, just continuing and trying to find away home.
no subject
[Not successfully either, especially with the admins playing games with them like last month.]
no subject
At least you're not alone now, right?
no subject
[He grinned.]
I've... made a few friends here. So I haven't been alone for awhile.
no subject
I'm glad to hear that. If I'm here long enough, I might actually make friends myself that don't include a quasi-hyperresonance and trip to save the world from my brother.
no subject
[Seriously, it was still a fear of his that he would come out of his room one morning and Van would be there...]
no subject
Of course not.
