[confined_to_briah]

( Alexiel has decided to take some time for herself - if one could call being alone in a city full of people being truly alone. She is currently walking down one of the many side-walks, her heels making distinct taps against the concrete. She has yet to change out of the dress she arrived in and her sword and sheathe are tied neatly around her waist. )

The pulse of life in this City is almost overwhelming. ( Especially for one who has spent so much time either in another or alone. )

It's difficult for even one such as I to find friends and foes. ( She pauses in the middle of a street. Yes. Just try to hit her. ) Can I trust what I feel?

( Extending one arm, she raises her gaze to the heavens. ) Are you toying with me? Is this a farce?

( She pays no attention to anything or anyone around her. A wild wind whips her long curls around her body, obscuring her expression. )

Cruel.

( ooc: Open to anyone and everyone! I welcome all 4th-Wallers. Alexiel is taken from the end of AS, jsyk. )

I know where your brother was staying before. We can at least look there before the night's over!

Unless you'd rather wait? Kurai, Rosiel, Gabriel and Sara are out there.

[confined_to_briah]

He is here? ( She had been second guessing herself. ) Kurai too?

I will pursue him, Setsuna.

[beyourarmy]

Alright. Just don't let him near me. We've already had enough talking. And I'll punch his face in if I see him right now.

[confined_to_briah]

I prefer to do the punching if he deserves it. ( Her hand rests briefly on the hilt of hertheir sword. ) What are sisters for?

filtered;

[beyourarmy]

Yeah, but it's ME he pissed off. Distance is good enough right now.

I'll get over it. [He's just questioning himself.]

[confined_to_briah]

Sense has not been his forte for some time. I wouldn't take it personally if I were you.

[beyourarmy]

Ah, he MADE it personal. I'm just kinda glad he hasn't noticed Sara yet. If you don't mind help keeping it that way? I'd really appreciate it.

[confined_to_briah]

I have no reason to reveal her presence to him. ( They have other business. ) Should you need me to interfere ( or distract ), all you need do is ask.

[beyourarmy]

Thanks. That's good enough for now. I'm just gonna...go blow stuff up. I'll be back later.

[confined_to_briah]

Have a good time.

[valentineluke]

Calm down. They should be gone by Monday morning.

[confined_to_briah]

Who said I wasn't calm?

[jemerite]

It is... very noisy.

[A very nervous little voice coming from a young woman with large eyes and ashen skin.]

[becomingstrong]

... Alexiel-sama?

[valentineluke]

Couldn't help but notice some fraying of the nerves.

[confined_to_briah]

On a number of levels. ( She tilts her head curiously. ) Hello.

[confined_to_briah]

Kurai. ( Her expression softens. ) Are you well?

[confined_to_briah]

What you see is a promise unfulfilled.

oops I did not say video or action... YOU CAN PICK!?

[jemerite]

[Curled into a ball and nervous, her chin ducks down behind her knees. She's got herself half-wedged behind a dumpster, hiding from the noise.]

...hello. Are you... [She hesitates for a moment.] Angry.

[If so, she doesn't really want to contribute to it. She doesn't like to be yelled at.]

( Action ) :D

[confined_to_briah]

( Alexiel steps away from the street and into the alleyway. )

Not at you. ( She holds out a hand. ) Hiding won't do you any good.

( Action ) o3o

[jemerite]

[Zinc stares at her hand. Already she's noticed that there aren't any other Reanimates in this city. She doesn't see them on the corners or hidden in the alleys. She doesn't smell them either, and now this woman is offering out her hand. People in her world knew better than to approach a stray zombie. It would almost assuredly bite. Even if it didn't, its hands would cold like death.

She isn't exactly a stray, but she's had her cold touch rejected so many times that she is nervous.]

I... am lost.

( Perma-Action ) ^-^

[confined_to_briah]

( Zombies and death are nothing new to Alexiel. Though she pities lost souls in decaying bodies, she isn't repulsed by them. Therefore, even if she knew Zinc's nature, she would still offer her hand. It's doubtful that Angels can be turned into Zombies anyway. )

Then let's find you a home together. My name is Alexiel.

[becomingstrong]

I am! But- why are... Are you?

[confined_to_briah]

Before I arrived in the City, I was speaking directly to Rosiel. ( In other words, it's complicated. ) Don't worry, Setsuna is alive.

[jemerite]

[She doesn't believe in angels, not yet anyway. The city has changed her older counterpart's mind, much to her annoyance. It's very slow, but Zinc extends her arm to take the woman's hand.]

My name is Zinc. I... I can't stay, here.

[There's something stilted about the way she speaks, struggling after words and stringing them together in a hoarse voice.]
