[OLD] First Mirror [Action/Video]

[Good evening Luceti, have a very upset looking Kagami. She's just arrived in Luceti but she's looking... well, rather drenched. In fact some of the water from her hair is dripping on to the journal occasionally.

But it's cold enough as is, so she's really starting to feel it, shivering away as she speaks.]

A-Alright! Who's b-big idea was this! [The journal had been fairly simple to figure out and she's already got a pretty good feel for the basics, suggesting she's maybe already been here for an hour or so.] Y-You could have at least ch-chosen a better spot t-to dump me in! [She did not appreciate the choice of the fountain one bit.]

[She lets out a big sigh and pulls herself together.] I n-notice that there's a lot of p-people who use this network. [Judging by the previous entries she had briefly scrolled through at least.] S-So would anyone care to tell me w-what exactly is going on here?

[For one thing she's been dumped into the fountain of a strange village, and secondly she has wings for god sake.]

Like, what a-am I supposed to be doing here? I wasn't exactly g-given much d-direction y'know... [She sneezes, rubbing her nose afterward. It's crude, but hopefully the message will get someones attention.

Alternatively, anyone passing by the fountain tonight might notice the dripping new feather, sat against the fountain, experimenting and fiddling with her journal. She'll be trying her best to keep warm but a soggy sundress isn't the best choice of wardrobe for the middle of winter.]

[WET GIRL IN A SUNDRESS YOU SAY? Oh, she's pretty flat chested... But he can roll with that, too. Have an Arata coming up for assistance!]

Hey there, pretty girl. You sound sick as a dog.

[Pretty... girl? With a start she pulls herself off of the floor, hiding the journal behind her back.]

W-What's that supposed to m-mean?! [Who the hell is this guy?]

[Going to take off his jacket and drap it over her shoulders.]

It means what it means. You're gonna catch a cold out here, you know.

[Wait what is he doing--]

A-ah...! That's alright. [She immediately removes the jacket, pushing it back to him.] It'd hardly be the first time. [She just doesn't feel very comfortable taking a guy's jacket. Especially when it's one she's only just met.]

I think a c-cold would be the least of my worries r-right now.

[Well, he won't object if she doesn't want it! He'll just toss it over his shoulder.]

Heeh... That's true. You should be drying yourself off and getting yourself new clothes. Ah, I should introduce myself first. I'm Arata Kasuga.

Kagami H-Hiiragi. [She nods.] That'd be a good place to start, I guess.

[She's still a little unsure about why she's here, browsing the journals gave her a few things to go on however.] This place is called Luceti, right? I mean that's what you guys seem to be calling it.

That's right. It's a strange new world and I'm still a bit lost. There's an organization behind the scenes, too.

[... AH] But we can't be talking out here. Let's get you to a building where you can warm up.

[An organization? She'd figured as much from what she'd found on the journals, in fact she'd hoped they might respond to her... But that seemed fairly unlikely. It all seemed a bit silly to her though, has she just walked into some sort of anime or something?] Oh, of c-course!

Lead t-the way. [She'll just have to take all the help she can get until she can get her bearings around here it seems...]

[Shall begin walking and making some passing looks at her face sometimes.]

You know, you seem pretty normal compared to other girls I know.

[She'll be avoiding those looks, in fact if she catches him she'll probably blush and look the other way!]

That's why I'm confused, the journal showed me a lot of colourful people so why would you wanna bring someone l-like me here?

Whoever this organization is, their wasting mine and their own time if you ask me.

Maybe it was just bad luck on your part. There's some other normal people around here, too.

Bad luck, huh? Figures...

So would you be one of these "normal" people then?

Yup! Just your average friendly neighborhood mage!

M-Mage?! [How can he say that so casually?!] You mean like a magician? Magic tricks, right?!

That's exactly it. But I can do much more than pull a rabbit out of my hat or know what card you're holding without looking at it.

[She should probably start getting used to this sort of crazy...] So like what else?

I can negate the very existance of magic itself.

[Welp.] Oh, very funny. Yeah sure I can do that too.

See? Look? No magic here.

You'll have to see me in action someday. If I make your heart skip a beat, then I wouldn't blame you.

Yeah... right, whatever. [He lost her already.] So where are we going exactly?

I mean as much as I love chatting with you I'm not exactly keen on being lead around like this. [She honestly has to wonder whether he'll pick up on the sarcasm or not.]

[Slight chuckle. He does catch the sarcasm, but he doesn't care about it.] I'm taking you to the Welcome Center. That's where all newbies go whenever they show up here.

Wow, I guess this place must be pretty prepared for this sort of thing.

Couldn't you just send me in the right direction? I can find it myself.

No way. You would get lost too easily.

And the hell makes you say that?!

Because I'm a man and I'm good with directions.
