4 Monster Friends [Action/Voice]

[wildlittlegirl]

[ When Arietta first comes back to the village, she doesn't think much of it. Sure, there are a few new faces around, but she was kidnapped right before another New Feather cycle.

But as she makes her way back to House 47, things seem a bit strange. Dated, even. And they only get stranger when she finds out just who else is in House 47.

Finally she decides enough is enough, and goes for the journals.

Anyone who's met Arietta might notice that at the moment, she seems a bit... well. Older. ]



Hello. Um, I was wondering. Is Yushen listening to this? Or Wiz? [ Who else has been in Luceti for a long time...? ] Cloche?

If any of you hear this, I want to talk to you...

[ Where have all her Luceti friends gone 8'( ]


(( Arietta has been aged-up nine years in an alternate Luceti as detailed here! ))

Sorry... You don't look like anyone I know.

Are you a New Feather?

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

[He shakes his head.]

N-no, I've been here for over a year now. I help out at the Welcome Center, actually.

[Action]

[wildoldergirl]

Really? But I've never seen you before.

[ STARE if he's been in Luceti a year then she should at least vaguely recognize him, right? ]

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

Sometimes people miss each other? [He says with a nervous chuckle. There are still people he meets who turn out to have been in Luceti for longer than him, although in most cases he can later recall having seen them in the street before at least.] It- it is still weird how you look like someone I met here, though. Just... older.

[Action]

[wildoldergirl]

Who's that?

[ She didn't think anyone in Luceti looked anything like her... ]

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

Well, her name's Arietta.

[Action]

[wildoldergirl]

Oh, that's me.

[ ... was he someone she met a while back who went home, maybe? ]

I still don't think I know you.

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

Arietta? But... but you're all grown up.

...But it's okay if you don't remember me.

[Action]

[wildoldergirl]

Well, I've been here a long time. So of course I grew up.

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

You have? But the last time I saw you, it was the other month. And you were around my age.

[Action]

[wildoldergirl]

[ She shakes her head. ]

But I've never seen you before, and I've been here for years and years...

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

I don't understand. Are you from... the future? No, but then you should still remember me...

[Action]

[wildoldergirl]

I'm not from the future. I told you, I've been here a long time.

[ Which is mostly her not realizing what Aang means by the future. Since by now she's gotten it in her head that Aang must have met her on Auldrant after when she's from, which would mean he's the one from the future. ]

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

This just doesn't make sense, then.

[Action]

[wildoldergirl]

I know. Luceti usually doesn't... Sometimes I just don't try to figure things out anymore.

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

I guess I think like that too, sometimes. [He says with a meek chuckle.] Maybe we should just... accept this for what it is, then.

[Action]

[wildoldergirl]

But what is it? I'm really not sure yet...

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

I don't know. That we're both here... that you don't know me, but I know you. Just... a younger you. I don't know how to explain it.

[Action]

[wildoldergirl]

Did you really know me? Or... [ No, wait. She doesn't actually have any idea where she's going with that. ] Um, nevermind. Sorry.

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

Y-yes? [He raises an eyebrow, confused.] I really did. I just met you a few months ago.

[Action]

[wildoldergirl]

I was just thinking... what if it was someone who's like me, but still not me...

[ Like replicas, but that's still a thing she doesn't entirely understand. So trying to explain what she means when she doesn't even know what she means sooort of falls flat. ]

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

Like... another you? A little you? [It makes sense given his experience. Considering he knows both an adult and a kid Loki running around.]

[Action]

[wildoldergirl]

I... suppose so. Someone who's me, but doesn't remember what I do...

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

You think that your... memories are different?

[Action]

[wildoldergirl]

[ She shakes her head. ]

Not mine! But the other me. The one you met... Maybe she's me, but she's not exactly like me...
