1st Flight ✈ action/voice

[action]

[Having woken up by his lonesome in the middle of the forest, Birdy has taken to the skies to try finding his missing comrades from above. When that proves fruitless, he touches down in the village proper in order to interrogate a resident.

That resident may very well be your character, and they will be greeted with a rather brusque:]

Oi, where the hell is this place?

***

[voice]

[Later, after having learned the basics of Luceti from someone, he'll fumble around with the journal.]

Is this thing on? Shout, Shirobon -- you guys out there? Bongo? Gangu? ...Professor?

[And while waiting for replies, he'll be flipping back through the more recent entries to see what else he can find out about his current predicament.]

[The first one is...oddly specific, and the second one could be anyone.]

I'm pretty sure there's more than one girl around here with pink hair, but I can't say I've seen a...bomberman. [What is that supposed to be...?]

[It's kind of Exactly What It Says On the Tin. Except not, when it comes to appearance. But Birdy is used to everyone knowing what a bomberman is or looks like in his universe, so he's assuming that's the case here.]

The girl I'm looking for has short hair. The pink's not very bright; more like mauve, I guess.

[...which would probably technically make her hair more of a purple shade by Wikipedia standards, but whatever.]

Ah, I'm afraid that's not ringing any bells. I hope you find her though, though there's a good chance she's not here. [Stupid Luceti.]

[Was Birdy the only one taken? No one's answering his badge calls, so his immediate assumption is that they're way out of range. But he won't rule out the possibility that they're either knocked out somewhere or might not even have access to their badge.]

What makes you say that?

It's just the way this world works. My significant other had been here for a year before I arrived. Not everyone you know is taken, sometimes it's one at a time, sometimes it's many. I don't know if anyone knows how that works.

I see... The "guide" I read did say something similar. How long have you been here for?

Only about four months, give or take. You didn't get yourself housing yet, did you?

No. I don't like staying in one place, though.

[It was why he never kept a permanent residence on Jetters Planet. Well, that, and rent prices were ridiculous.]

If that's so, what are you planning on doing for a living space? There's not much else besides the village, the forest, and the mountain range.

[Normally he'd just stay in his taxi, but as far as he could tell, it was nowhere to be found.]

Is winter coming soon here?

[He noticed it was rather brisk, but it could just be a temporary cold spell.]

Yes, it's right around the corner actually. I haven't been through a winter here, so I don't know how cold it gets. Housing is free anyway, so don't worry so much about that. And go ahead and destroy all the walls you like- they regenerate anyway. [Hey, some people around here liked to do that. Best to let him know.]

[Woman, he's not a bomberman. He doesn't do shit like destroying walls. :|

But okay, winter. The winters he'd weathered in the wild back on his home planet were mild compared to Jetters Planet, and there was no indication yet that winter in Luceti would be as mild. It would be best to find shelter.]

Where do you recommend staying at?

Well... [She's only ever stayed in ~~Castle~~ House 44.]

There's a lot of community housing, apartments that is. I'd see if you can get in there, I can't imagine it's too hard.

I see. Thanks for your help, then.
