[Aging Event - Tier 1] [Selenia 1]

[nightcrossed]

W-wuahhh!! Wh-where?? That bright ball is a sun, right? The sky is so big and clear and wonderful! There's no "meyazma" anywhere... It's all clean! And the flowers! There are big ones and small ones and there are so many colors! It hurts my eyes a little, but it is so very pretty!

S-so... this... this is the Outer Lands!! It is the Outer Lands, right? I wanted to know what it was like! This is so amazing!

But... I got here how?

Wahhh... but!! But Van told me not to go to the Outer Lands, and Grandfather did, too! I'm dead! I will be in such big trouble! If they find out they'll toss me into the "meyazma" and I will never be able to join the "Orickles"! I can't let that happen!!

And there is nobody... nobody...

[She cups her small hands around her mouth and calls out in a high-pitched child's voice.]

........Brother? Are you there?
Brother?

.....Big Brother?!!!!

[*PANIC!!!*]

Where are you? It's too big!! I'm scared! I'm really scared, Van!! Big Brother?! BIG BROTHER!!! VANDESDELCA!!!

[And five-year-old Tear takes off running at full speed in a random direction. If any people are in her way she will plow right into them. Not that it would hurt very much. Moeblobs tend to be soft and harmless, and Tear is definitely both right now. She also sounds like she inhaled helium. She's soft-spoken and squeaky. Only other info I can think of mentioning is that she can use simple healing abilities, but, it would probably be by accident, since she hasn't been taught how to control fonons/use her fon slots yet.]

((From this tier she's keeping 1% on the scene where she uses the seventh fonon on a selenia flower which leads to her promising to join the Oracle Knights "Orickles" to be with Van, 1% on the Qliphoth/Yulia City. The other 3% will be used in the last tier.))

*Edit: switched out most instances of "Niisan" for the English equivalent.

[Way to go, Tear. You're inflating his ego.]

Well, uh, I'm nothing to sneeze at, that's for sure! But yep, I'm a swordsman!

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

[Enjoy it while you can, Luke. Next month she'll be deflating it.]

Why would I sneeze at you, sir?

Wuaahhh~! A swordsman? Niisan uses a sword, too!

[Luke, you're now a hero in our heroine's eyes. Congrats.]

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

Well, hey, like I said, it was your brother who taught me!

*sheepish laughter; he's just babbling out of confusion at this point*

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

[She laughs (more like giggles, but whatever) with him.]

So... where is Niisan now?

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

*snap back into reality, Luke*

Uh, well, uh...

He's not here.

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

H-he...isn't...?

Th-then... how am I going to get back to Yulia City?

This is worst than being dead and breaking my promise to Niisan! Now I'm lost for good...

[Now she looks like she's on the verge of tears.]

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

Crap, crap, crap! Gotta invent something!

Well, uh, you're near a town! I'm sure he knows where this place is!

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

A town...? [Wipes her eyes and looks up at him.]
Is it maybe Daath, sir? Where the Orackles are?

((No Tear, it isn't Daath.))

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

It's a place called Memento Eden. It's, uh, it's not a well-known place, but he knows of it.

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

Are you sure, sir?
Um, sir...?

[She doesn't know your name, Luke.]

W-well, if you say so...

...Uwaaah!! I know! I'll just stick together with you since you're Niisan's student and a really strong warrior! Then Van will find me for sure!

......is that okay?

[She beams up at him. So ingenious, right?]

(Run Luke run.)

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

No no NO

Look, I've, uh, gotta go to work. Why don't you, uh, go to the church? Yeah! I bet the healers will take care of you!

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

B-but... you're a hero, right? So you're s'posed to help me... I won't get in the way... promise! I'm small. No one will ever notice me. And the healers might not know who Niisan is...

[Tugs on his pant leg.]

And I still don't know your name, sir! When I find Van I need to tell him that I saw his student.

[If you can imagine a five-year-old Tear with a sad puppy dog look on her face, that's what it's like right now.]

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

But I...I need to get to work! If I don't work my job, I'll get fired, and then I'll run out of money!

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

[Claps her hands together.]
Then I'll help you! I'm a lot tougher than I look, sir!

(Haha... tough... right.)

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

What? No! I work with a blacksmith! It's dangerous for kids!

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

I'm five years old, Mr. Niisan's Student! I'm almost a grownup!

Besides, I can use "sebbenth fomoms"!! It'll be easy!

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

...It's Luke. Call me Luke.

And no means no! It's too dangerous for someone as young as you! I don't want to see you going and dumping hot coals on your hands or dropping an anvil on your feet or something!

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

...Sir Luke? [Head tilt.]

But... I can use "sebbenth fomoms", so I wouldn't get hurt. Van says only special people can use them! It made Mr. Flower all better!

I could even show you!

[Doesn't seem too sure if she can do it.]
...maybe.

[Looks down at her hands.]
...

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

I said no, okay?! Besides, the blacksmith won't allow it either!

1/2

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

[Shrinks back.] ...

D-d-don't yell at me! That's mean! I'm just trying to help!

B-besides... I have "sebbenth fomoms"... I'm tough... I won't get hurt...

I... [Fights back tears.]

...

!!

[Whirls and marches a short distance away with a sense of purpose; squats down in the grass near a particularly pitiful little flower that looks to be about dead.]

Watch! I'm not a baby at all!

2/2

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

[She holds her palms close to it, trying to force the "fomoms" out through her hands towards the flower.]

I'll show him! I can do it! I CAN do it! I'll show him my "sebbenth fomoms" and he'll be so surprised he won't make me go to the healers! If I do it he'll take me to Niisan for sure!

[Slowly... slowly... there's a little sparkle in the air over the flower, a tiny glimmer, gradually growing larger until Tear's hands are glowing up to her wrists and a ball of fonons suspends in the air in front of her. The flower in question then begins to perk back up.]

2/2

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

Uh...Like I said! Go to the church! That's where the healers are!

Re: 2/2

[a-severed-fate.livejournal.com]

...
...
[Pouts.]

No. I don't want to. I want to find Niisan.

[Brat mode is go.]

[apurposetolive.livejournal.com]

And where do you think is the first place he'll look?

Come on, we're going to the church.

*moves to grab Tear's wrist and lead her off to the church*
