[The video feed flicks on and then off, a brief vision of a woman with black hair in her face. It does this a few more times before the feed holds steady. Unlike many newcomers to the city, she doesn’t seem upset at being in this strange new location. And despite the fact that she’s sitting in the fountain, she’s not wet.

However what she is, while not wet, is wearing just a towel.]

So... this isn’t my home is it? It’s some other world, right? Tell me this is right, please. Please.... I really want to be the one who’s somewhere else for once.

[There's a pause.]

And if anyone could be so kind, could they happen to bring along some clothing. I was on my way to the bath and...

[She grins, not needing to say any more.]


Action

[Catch the betowel'd Laruna at the fountain, because she's not going anywhere just yet.]

Comments

[water_wine_wizard]

They're likely all bitter. There's something wrong with the water.

[moonlitrequiem]

[She ceases sipping and stares into her glass.] There are no other drinks? Aside from beer?

[water_wine_wizard]

Of course there are. There's wine. Actually it might be interesting to see what it's like here.

[moonlitrequiem]

[She abandons the beer then and orders wine. Again, a glass for Laruna, and one for herself. This time, sipping only.]

[water_wine_wizard]

[This drink she takes much more seriously than the beer, but that's because it's a matter of competition.]

[moonlitrequiem]

[Yin, unaware, just sips it. Her eyes droop a little, not that they would look much different to someone unobservant, or who just met her.]

[water_wine_wizard]

Humm...

[Laruna's also more interested in the wine right now.]

Pretty good. Could use a bit of spice.

[moonlitrequiem]

Spice? You seem to know a bit about alcohol.

[Yin, on the other hand, knows not a thing.]

[water_wine_wizard]

I make wine.

[moonlitrequiem]

You press grapes? [She finds a need to clarify this, which...she shouldn't.]

[water_wine_wizard]

Oh. Nothing as human as that!

[Human having the same connotation as 'crass' or 'ill made' right then.]

I make it out of water.

[moonlitrequiem]

[But that's not how.... Well, she could do something non-traditional if she was a Contractor, but she doesn't seem like one.]

How?

[water_wine_wizard]

Magic. I'm a wizard.

[Obvsly. Here have a demonstration as she lifts some wine out of the class and twirls it around her fingers.]

[moonlitrequiem]

[She watches.]

Could you not just make your own? [Or would she need costly materials for it?]

[water_wine_wizard]

I do make my own wine... out of water instead of fruit. It's a lengthy process though.

[She's missing something...]

[moonlitrequiem]

[And there Yin runs out of conversation and goes back to drinking her own.]
