( gonna be so over for him when they meet irl and she (marina inoue voice) shinsaku!'s him )
Hmmm... Are you already in trouble, Shinsaku? They did say you should be nice to the ServiTONs, you know? Do you need me to use my extra cute feminine charm to apologize for you?
[ The day of their date arrives and she's bursting with energy, walking with a pep in her step all the way to the entrance of the Valentina. She's been looking forward to this day, excited to meet the chipper lady who was an absolute delight to chat with! Kind of stinks mora still feels a little scarce, her only regret is not having a cuter outfit to wear. Between her go-to orange kimono and the silly graduation robes, the choice is obvious. She just hopes her usual, cute self will shine through. Yoimiya sends Elysia a message to let her know she's arrived at their designated meeting spot. It's not long until her eyes land on the prettiest pink locks she's ever seen. ]
Elysiaaaaa~!
[ She rushes over, greeting her with a warm, welcoming smile. ]
It's wonderful to see ya in person! You look even more cute and stunning in real life.
[ If Yoimiya wasn't already starstruck by her, she certainly is now! Miss Pink Elf certainly lives up to her title, she's so.... pink and ethereal. She's fairly certain she's staring at a goddess. ]
( truly little does yoimiya know... but for elysia, who was born with so much love in her heart, she's fine with just being a normal, pretty girl. it means she can have moments like this, with a new friend she has made, all cute and warm and nostalgic like the setting sun. it means she's allowed a semblance of a normal, human life, and isn't that what she would want the most? )
This is so unfair... ( hence the upcoming theatrical pouting, which is by no means genuine or honest.
give her a minute, as elysia reaches for her friend's hands, and stares right at her face, committing it to memory. a small, soft face, the cutest sunset-orange eyes, fair skin... a moment later, and that pout is replaced by a smile just as warm. ) I wasn't ready for a girl this beautiful to compliment me so much... You didn't tell me you were this pretty! Were you holding back on me, Yoimiya?
( sooooo unfair! but the surprise is a pleasant one nonetheless, and elysia hardly finds fault in it. it's always a good day if she can look at cute girls, after all. )
[ So unfair...? The pout paints a momentary look of confusion on Yoimiya's face, she wonders if she might have said something strange. But that all changes when she hits her with one of the sweetest compliments anyone has given her. Beautiful...! She called her beautiful!!! The sentiment is so sweet, causing her cheeks to bloom with color. Confidence comes naturally to her, despite knowing she's cute, it's still nice to hear it out loud. ]
Aww, shucks! You're making me blush. [ Oh, she blushing alright! Her cheeks are pink like Elysia's hair. ] I didn't think I was holding out on you but gosh, you're making me feel like a superstar, hehe.
[ Speaking of superstars! Yoimiya swears she's staring at one right now. Beautiful pink locks, sparkling blue eyes, a stunning complexion, and a smile warm as the sun and vast as the sky above, her presence alone is enough to strike a chord with her, Elysia seems to have one of those dazzling personalities that makes anyone want to befriend her. ]
Today is my lucky day! I've been excited to meet you.
So you've met the Deliverer. I would warn you that he can be something of a handful, but the little we've interacted leads me to believe it won't be a problem for you
Should you need someone to come and get him, however, I will take him off your hands
for all that elysia loves receiving new texts, it takes her a few steps to be on the same page as the letters on her screen. first, godslayer sure is an edgy name, isn't it? it takes one click on it to realize this is mydeimos, the boy she had met during their welcome party - not what that was - and quickly befriended.
then comes the words the deliverer, that makes elysia stop and think. she has met so many people in her short time in karteria so far, it'd be hard to tell who mydeimos is referring to... but she can't help but draw the similarities here, to a certain bearer of the deliverance signets.
...
so even in this new life of his, he's still a hero, huh. )
Are you and Phainon friends, Mydeimos?
( "friends"... yes... but regardless of the answer, she couldn't be happier that they know each other. )
Is he really that troublesome? He seemed like a good boy when we met. A timid but eager boy. Or is it that you're worried about me? That makes me happy ♪
( "what are we" is probably a question better poised to phainon rather than mydeimos, who is content to let it exist as it is. they are rivals, companions, equals. he supposes that all those combined makes phainon into a friend, but the word seems... trivial, when compared to how phainon exists to harass him, tease him, push him into being better than he could ever be without the other man. )
We are equals
( is what he settles on, for he feels that encompasses as much as how he feels in one word )
Hmph. Timid? ( perhaps, given the hesitance with which phainon approaches his destiny underneath the bravado. but mydei is also aware of the fact the man does not hold himself back in other matters, eager to spar against him even after their ten day fight. he gives every part of himself to those who need it, without question and without a second thought -- leaving nothing for himself. who is phainon? that, mydei thinks, is a question only the other man holds the answers to, though all hold parts of him.
it would be concerning if it were not phainon, who wears his heart on his sleeve even as he presents a smile to the imperiled world. a 'good boy', as miss elysia calls him. ) Only when he lets the doubts inside of him rule his head and his heart. He could stand to trust himself more, for all that he trusts in the rest of us Chrysos Heirs
I am simply concerned about the depths of your patience should he seek to test them as he does mine. Constantly
( so much said in such few texts. equals... elysia can't help but think, then, that they must be good friends, that much like the day they met, phainon must enjoy sparring with this friend of his. it's hard, not to let the nostalgia and melancholy wash over her, but she needs not worry. after all, her friends live all inside of her.
it would be good, though. to talk with them again like this. )
Is that what your friend group is called? Chrysos Heirs? ( "friend group" to HER )
You know, Phainon reminds me of a friend... He used to be a lot like him. Timid, and unsure of his future and the duty he had to all of us. But... Fate is something hard to fight against. Duty, even more so. It's not a path easy to take, but he had all of us. No matter how much he tried distancing himself, thinking that he's the only one meant to take on this burden, I would make sure to pout at him, and reassure that we're more than just teammates. We're friends, and even family.
So I think... Phainon might be like that, too. If he gives so much of himself to other people, then he might be trying to find an anchor, so he doesn't lose himself in whatever fate has in store for him. Does that seem like that would be the case?
That depends on your perspective. "Chrysos Heirs" is more of a... designation for individuals like the Deliverer and myself, who have golden ichor in our veins. But it is not a common curse, and therefore those of us who exhibit certain desirable traits in the eyes of the Goldweaver join her and support the Flame-Chase journey.
( if mydei was aware of the pain that his words might cause her, or what sorrow is hidden in them, he would have opted for a conversation face to face. it would be cruel, in his eyes, to do so hiding behind a screen. )
Perhaps, though it could also be that his problem lies more in the idea that he should keep himself at a distance, yet fails to do so. He is aware of what the cost of the journey is to all of us: only one will remain to see it through to its end, and that is his role as the Deliverer. For a man who cares deeply and easily, he likely worries too much over it. We all have accepted our future deaths in exchange for the promise of the better world he is to usher in, now it's up to him to see it to its end.
We discussed helping the native citizens here previously. I'd like to float the idea of having designated Augmented - those who actually want to help - to be 'assigned', in a sense, to districts in the city to keep an eye on things. Help out the locals, have their faces known, be seen as reliable and trustworthy. It will help us to have a pulse on the populace and start to see if there are signs of concern.
[ Like these suits, potential illness from arcane radiation, loss, and the like. It'll get help to these places quicker. ]
Perhaps it will help us make some inroads with the people, too, before we begin to change further.
Like a representative of each area? I like that idea ♪ If the people remember us and have a positive impression, then it makes them more likely to trust the rest of us too. And it'll help us be more familiar with each area of the city, how it differs from one another, and make sure they're reassured we'll be there for them, no matter their class or wealth.
( because despite her own attitude, she's not blind to the class differences in karteria either. pretty girls have to be smart too, after all! )
Is it that you have some friends willing to help out too? I would love to meet them if that's the case~
That's exactly the idea. We can also keep track if something happens to people. These dealings with the men in suits, the disappearances... If we have eyes on the street and our ear to the ground, it's more likely we'll be aware if it starts happening again or something worse, and we can head it off at the pass.
[ It's for their benefit and Karteria's, for them to be able to step in. They'll get more information, too, with any hope.
Ahh...there's that F-word again. ]
I wouldn't call them friends, but I've contacted Palamedes and Momo about this, and you as well. Palamedes told me a girl named Maria was looking to help as well. My co-workers at the Steel Wing, Ace and Texas, will likely be interested as we'll already have our faces known in delivering mail and packages.
Good day, Elysia. [ apparently, the more light-hearted and sillier greeting of, 'miss elysia, miss pink elf, miss ellie' is exclusive to her streams. ]
It's been quite some time since your arrival to this new world, hasn't it? If you don't mind my asking, I'm curious to know: is there anywhere in the city that you favor above all else, by any chance?
on patch day... i guess we need some happy things happening today
( definitely better than just 'miss elysia', but she'll let him off the overly polite 'good day' for now... just a hi would've been perfect!! )
Somewhere I favor? (´･ω･`)? Hmmm... Belle Ville is nice, isn't it? Everyone is kind, and the streets are always lively, and maybe I have a soft spot for it, since it's where we arrived first... Something like our hometown, I think.
Won't you tell me more about your hometown, if you don't particularly mind doing so? Which part of Belle Ville resembles it the most, for example? The northern area or the south?
My my, Phainon~ Are you curious about me? I might just be an open book for you if you ask the right questions~
But my hometown wasn't anything like Belle Ville. It was a small village where we all knew each other, with a beautiful forest surrounding it. Hmmm, maybe it's something more like Kelesis?
( if they just ignore that kelesis completely warded them off, and they don't actually know what kelesis looks like. )
[ he hasn't a clue on how to address his curiosity, much less approach it. their initial conversation, upon that day they've first met, satiated enough for the time being. anything more is simply phainon going with the flow nowadays. ]
Attempting to find a place of residence near Kelesis seems a little foreboding considering the odds and our less than stellar reception that we received as an Augmented collective.
[ someone whose origins also involves a village hometown though? he won't make his intrigue too obvious yet. instead: ]
But I do wonder of the prerequisites. Something like, one ought to be pure of heart to be deemed worthy of passage into the city?
