star_kingdom | one ☽ best first impression ever [ video/action]

[ Two minutes in and Yuuko had already managed to spot somewhere to get booze. So this is one slightly buzzed dimensional witch lounging in one of Traverse Town's bistros. She raises her glass, seemingly admiring the amber liquid against the light. It was no junmai daiginjo, but it would do. ]

The destruction of multiple worlds.

[ A pause as she takes a sip from her glass. ]

Darkness so overwhelming it can snuff out the sun. Suffocate the life force from an entire reality. Not a common circumstance but possible.

[ Another sip. Pretty good. Had a nice burn. ]

But where exactly did this darkness come from?

[ She drains the glass unceremoniously and turns back to the camera. ]

Well, no sense in being shy. Introduce yourselves. After all...

[ And there is a knowing smile as she says this. ]

It was inevitable that we would meet each other here under these circumstances.

I am Yuuko Ichihara.

[[ ooc: weeeell... feel free to approach her or respond via feed! If there isn't any alcohol in this bistro, let's assume it wasn't alcoholic. ]]

My belief won’t shatter.

[Solidly stated, more like a oath. Followed by a gallows humor style joke.]

My sanity on the other hand… has been in question since I arrived.

[ There is a chuckle as she leans back slightly to get a better look at him. ]

I can imagine how daunting this must be for someone like yourself. But there have always been worlds outside your own.

This may be rather hard to swallow.

[At least she has been entertained. He smiles about that. ]

But, all of this seems almost normal to you. You have seen stranger things than this?

What exactly do we share similar tastes in? Butterflies? Many love the creatures, or I wouldn't have used them as my stage name.

There are things most have seen one would consider strange and another would consider mundane.

[ And with a smile, that's all she's gonna say on the matter. ]

Now then. Have you decided what you'll be doing here?

But did you choose it as a homage to yourself or merely for the public face it gives you?

[ That. Smug. Smile. Forever. ]

[What a cagey lady… But he shrugs idly at her question.]

From what I have been told there is very little we can do. I haven’t noticed a florist here however. Maybe a thing like that could bring a little brightness into a dark world like this.

[No, he really has no clue what to do. He is still trying to decide. To go looking for the others, to fight against the darkness, or to do as the King seemed to suggest and do nothing until the worlds were restored. The last option really being the least appealing.]

I chose it... as an homage to my mother.

[studying the table, thinking carefully]

if someone has summoned you here, does that mean someone on this world has a deal for you?

Thinking of putting up a flower shop then? I can see a few who would benefit from a few...

[ A pause to take sip from here glass. There is a slight eyebrow raise at the fact the bottle's now empty but... do what you can on limited resources and all. But she turns her attention back to her companion. ]

Seems you aren't the type to just sit idly by while all this happens.

Perhaps. But usually they come to my shop. House calls aren't all that common for me.

[ One glass drained. She moves to lounge in her chair a little. Damn. Better get a couch for her room. ]

But my services have their use. Everyone has a wish, after all... a dream of theirs which they'd be willing to pay absolutely anything for.

You must do her proud to be able to carry her name...

[ Yuuko's confident smile comes just as Aerith's dims in uncertainty. ]

That ... it's hard to tell. [ -- but it's not the attitude she should give refugees, so she quickly picks her smile back up, trying to think of the positive. What's better this time than it was before. ] But I think we're off to a good start. We're more connected, now. [ She gives the screen a tap to show what she means -- but that's just part of it. ]

[Chloé slowly swirled the colorful drink he was still nursing. ]

Maybe. [A flower shop has always been good cover in the past. ] There isn’t much else a florist like myself can contribute.

[ There is a teeny knowing smile as she drains her glass. ]

I'm sure you'll find a way to make yourself useful in this new environment.

What about yourself? Do you know what you will be doing in this place?

We'll see what comes up... but I might set up shop here.

[ Really considering this. There are wishes to grant, people to sucker into giving her stuff... I mean.. ]

[Innocent one over here has no idea what kind of shop that would be. ]

This place could use a few more shops around. I wish you luck if you decide to attempt that.

Perhaps we'll both need a little luck in a place like this.

[ Tiny grin, watching her glass before glancing back up again. ]

I may be seeing you at my shop sometime.

[since she's not in that dire of a situation, she's trying to imagine what she'd wish for...and what she'd be willing to pay for it...]

you're a very helpful person then. It can't be easy, what you do.

Even petty wishes, as long as one is willing to pay the appropriate amount for it. Balance must be kept, after all. No one receives anything for free.

[ She glances at the girl a moment, the tiniest smile on her face. ]

It's not necessarily being helpful. Merely inevitability. If it was inevitable for one to have their wish granted then it would be inevitable for me to meet that person.

you mean...like fate?

Exactly.

[ The smile curves into a smirk as she swirls her glass. ]

You've seen it before. Things that were supposed to happen, people you were supposed to meet. Those who have changed their lives and walked away having left an impression so deep it would be hard to forget.

This is fate. Hitsuzen.

[that's brought up thoughts of Flynn and their brief adventure together, how much he managed to show her in such a short amount of time]

[and now, sad rapunzel is sad]

heh. I guess I am kind of familiar with it
