4th Meditation ❋ The Pride lands [Voice to Video/Action] ❋ Everybody has to have a home

[namaste_jagat]

[Voice Filtered so Usagi can‘t hear it]

Afternoon, everyone. I hope this message finds you well. I think the party on Saturday will be a fine way for us all to connect with each other and to aide the young lady in not feeling homesick. A birthday is a very special occasion. I only wish I had learned of it sooner so that I could have offered my services in catering. All the same, I might bring a biryani dish!

[Then the message takes on a different twist and is visible by Usagi too]

As I have spoken about with a few of you, I’ve been looking for a new world that I might take up residence on. While Radiant Garden is a remarkable world I think I need a change of scenery. Is there any place you would recommend? I- think I shall rule out the Pridelands..

[There’s the sound of scraping near the communicator before the feed is finally switched to Video]

[Video]

[Looking down at the camera is an elongated muzzle of a zebra. No longer possessing hands, Agni is not at all sure how to use the communicator precisely.. Sounding a touch embarrassed]

Is- this normal? [It doesn’t feel normal at all] Or.. Is it another nefarious enchantment? I- really wasn’t prepared for this. [He stamped his hooves against the ground as he tested his new equine legs] Wherever I settle.. I would prefer to be in my own body, I think.

You can stay with me in the Land of Dragons!

Maybe I can milk a mare for some kumis.

I think the Pridelands does stuff like that to everyone.

I wouldn't be an imposition? [He asked, unsure of how small Joruk's living quarters might be. He tilted his head to the side tousling his mane] I think it would be an ideal arrangement! I would certainly be glad to help around the house, and I am skilled at a variety of chores.

That you could! If they allow the procedure once more.

[The last line came as a relief]

Re: Video

[filchedfruit]

It wouldn't be an imposition at all. I'd really appreciate your company. [ The place is not too large, and sparsely furnished. It's stil more spacious than what Joruk is used to.]

I don't like living alone.

[namaste_jagat]

That is most kind of you, I was planning on visiting your world as well but now I can make it the next stop. [Any place would be fine with Agni]

Neither do I. [He looked pensively to the side, recalling when he used to live with his master. When he looked back his smile had returned] Then neither one of us will have to be alone any longer.

[speakstojeffy]

Oh!

[Blink, blink... ZEBRA!]

You're cute! I do think that is normal for that world!

Um... what is biryani?

[She will just be trying to control the urge to pet you. ]

[Video]

[namaste_jagat]

[Heck yeah it's a zebra]

That would explain why I haven't seen any other humans.

[He's only too happy to explain] It's a rice dish that can be coupled with a variety of of spices and meats.

[That would be weird]

[Video]

[speakstojeffy]

Everyone would turn into a cute animal?

[That sounds fun actually!]

Maybe I should go to that world some time too.

That dish does sound pretty good. If you do bring it can I try a little?

[Video]

[namaste_jagat]

I suppose so!

[Sae seemed pleased by the idea anyway]

You would have to take caution not to run into any predators though.

Of course you may!

[caseofthetruth]

I believe that it would ultimately depend on what kind of place you are looking for.

[namaste_jagat]

I'm not entirely sure. [Just a place where he didn't used to live with his missing master, actually] I've been debating on whether I should pick the place I could do the most good, or a safer location where I could commute.

video;

[caseofthetruth]

If you want safer locations, I would suggest Twilight Town or something alone those lines such as Traverse Town or Destiny Island.

A place where you could possibly do good, I would have to ask what exactly you mean?

video;

[namaste_jagat]

I haven't been to Twilight Town but Traverse Town, and Destiny Island I have! They both seem like suitable locations.

Something to help restore the worlds.

[exsistingismysin]

I have two things to say.

One, how can a Zebra use this communicator in the first place and two, keep away from Wonderland. I don't think that world is suitable for anyone to live there.

video;

[namaste_jagat]

It was not easy! [He whinnied] I had to paw it quite a bit before it would turn on.

Wonderland? What makes it so undesirable?

video;

[exsistingismysin]

I see, though isn't it going to be hard now to close it and carry it around?

It's not desirable, it's just a place I doubt anyone could live there. Let's just say that they are all pretty mad there.

video;

[namaste_jagat]

I.... suppose I'll have to pick it up with my teeth. [As distasteful as that is]

The local inhabitants? I hadn't even considered the residents. You've given me something else to consider.

video;

[iscursednomore]

That's the reason I tend to avoid that world. it's hard to get control, plus all those lions.

video;

[namaste_jagat]

Lions?

[He hadn't even thought of the predators... ]

I should keep a better eye out for them.

video;

[iscursednomore]

They have to eat, I don't know if they can tell the difference between pray and travellers.

[soldierofloveandbeauty]

If you want to bring a dish or too yourself, I'm sure that Makoto wouldn't mind.

video; filtered

[namaste_jagat]

Makoto? [He seemed to recall her also giving cooking tips to Lenalee..]

She must be quite an accomplished cook to provide most of the selections for an entire party.

video; filtered

[soldierofloveandbeauty]

She's a good cook, I enjoy her cooking at least as do the other members.

[sinfullysublime]

[ Lifts a brow. ] I will have to remember to stay away from the Pridelands as well. [ Clears his throat. ] ...you're more than welcome to stay with me, Agni. I've always room for a friend.

video;

[namaste_jagat]

Sebastian, my friend! I hope you have been well. [He exclaimed when he recognized who it was] I wonder if there are any other worlds such as this.

[He paused for a moment, and looked a little pensive, then he humbly bowed his head and replied] That is very kind of you. I have done nothing to deserve such good friends as I have and yet I've received not only one offer of a place to stay but two. [Then he looked up, and it looked like there might be tears clinging to the corners of his eyes... but they were tears of joy] Joruk has already suggested that I reside with him, and I have accepted his hospitality. As soon as I'm settled in I must make time to come and visit you. It's been far too long since we've met in person.

video;

[sinfullysublime]

I have been well. [ He gives a small nod in appreciation. ] I do believe that the underwater world is similar in that you transform into a mermaid or merman.

Nonsense, you are all sorts of deserving. [ He smiles. ] It's alright. I am glad that you have found a room. I only wish I had seen you looking earlier. Mm. It has been. I own a small shop in Traverse Town, and you're always more than welcome to stop by.
