❦ 001 ❦ Hermione Granger : VIDEO :: Traverse Town

[knowledgephilia]

Please, I'm fine. You don't have to do this, really.

[The feed turns on to a nameless street where a new face stood leaning against the wall trying to hide her arm from two floating moogle's. They seemed to have spotted one of many injuries on her person and had been following her with a potion and some bandages. Hermione was reluctant to accept anything at the moment.]

Do understand, I'm fine. I can manage.

You're bleeding, Kupo! We're here to help!

That's very kind of you but-

Our potion's will help you!

A-Ah, well, all right. [And she reached a shaky hand to accept the potion but she didn't drink. Not yet.]

Can you tell me if a boy by the name of [Was it safe to say the real name?] Harry Potter arrived? He's a friend and I really need to find him.

[ His Captain would not approve of this.]

Did you at least do some damage to the other side?

The furry fairies seem nice. The potion'll probably help.

video

[knowledgephilia]

Umm, I'm not sure.

I'll take your word for it. I'll drink the potion.

video

[gunnerbrat]

Might as well take whatever help you can get.

[ The moogles give out treasure. That makes them okay for fairies.]

video

[knowledgephilia]

Very well said.

[Yet she's still skeptical. Oh well. She pops the potion bottle open and sips a bit.]

video

[gunnerbrat]

How is it?

Re: video

[knowledgephilia]

A little bitter.

video

[gunnerbrat]

It doesn't seem to be doing anything strange to you.

video

[knowledgephilia]

I still ache so, this potion might not even work.

video

[gunnerbrat]

Or you didn't drink enough.

video

[knowledgephilia]

Good point. [And she drinks a little more.]

video

[gunnerbrat]

[ She's too injured for that little bit.]

You might need all of it.

video

[knowledgephilia]

It's not wise to drink something you know nothing about but... oh, I have no choice.

video

[gunnerbrat]

You have a point.

[ This doesn't apply to Cookson's meals.]

but it's too late now.

video

[knowledgephilia]

At least you're there in case something bad does happen, correct?

video

[gunnerbrat]

Sure.

[ Wait...what? ]

I'm actually not too far from you. I've only just arrived, myself.

[ He's not sure what good being there would do.]

video

[knowledgephilia]

You did? And how are you holding up? Are you well?

video

[gunnerbrat]

Well enough.

[ He's too excited over the technology for the horror to sink in. He isn't too fond of Neverland, anyway.]

I was lucky enough not to be in a battle. Just had everything around me turn to gray sludge.

video

[knowledgephilia]

Gray sludge? Whatever do you mean?

video

[gunnerbrat]

That's the last thing I saw before this darkness, at least that's what the furry fairies call it, covered the world. All the color faded and everything started turning gray. The waters turned to ...well sludge. The longboat got stuck in it.

I don't know what caused it.

[ It was the result of Peter Pan growing up and forgetting about Neverland.]

video

[knowledgephilia]

Longboat? Furry fairies? Where exactly did you live?

video

[gunnerbrat]

A strange place called Neverland.

[ He doesn't expect anyone to know about it, since they all come from different worlds.]

video

[knowledgephilia]

Neverland. [And she gives a small smirk.] I knew of a place called Neverland. I used to read about it in story books. With pirate's and children and a boy that never grew up.

video

[gunnerbrat]

There's a story about it?

[ He is so amazed by this.]

That sounds pretty accurate. There's also Indians and fairies...and mermaids.

[ He's not going to admit to being a pirate, yet.]

video

[knowledgephilia]

Then you know Peter Pan? Neverland is truly real?!

video

[gunnerbrat]

Sure, I know him.

[ You get to know a person when you try to kill them a few times.

Well, it was real. Now it's covered in darkness.
