everywhere is cool
[but sorey yes??]
I went through the woods last time we were here, but that was 99% spent watching wyverns.
stuck??

[that attitude is why he thinks she's cool]
there are wyverns? no way!! i didn't see those at all. you'll have to tell me where you spotted them. first order of business can be checking the wyverns out.
astoria's stuck here for some reason and can't go to help other worlds, which is why she brought us here to help. i thought there might be clues around here to figure out how she got stuck and how to un-stick her.
that might not be the right terminology, but that's the general idea.

sure! they're easy to find if you have food-- as soon as one knows there's a treat, they ALL find out.
I thought she just didn't go because maybe her magic didn't work that way. like she can teleport other people but the caster can't teleport themselves.

wyvern treats. got it.
[he doesn't have wyvern treats, but he can ask Geir what he likes to eat. that might be close enough.]
that could actually be what it is. she didn't sound sure what was keeping her from leaving when i talked to her, so i thought that there might be a solution to it. being nice about kidnapping people doesn't make it okay to kidnap people, you know? so the sooner we can figure out how to let her leave this place to go to other worlds, the better. she should be able to send people home if they have things they need to do there.

[who knows, she lured the wyverns with fruit loops]
has she ever been off this world at all? I don't know how she knows so much about us all or about the places she's sending us to.

i assumed she knew because of magic
that sounds really stupid when i type it out
but she is really powerful, as far as we know, so i thought it might be a part of her ability to help prevent chaos from taking over worlds! she has to know that kind of stuff if she's going to help. that is making a lot of assumption about her though, when i should just ask her...

there's magic that can research people, but I think the kind I saw before is different from what she uses.
I don't think she's had a lot of formal practice/study? it could be instinctive for her

[SO. sometime after returning from El Minha, while new and old Circle members are milling around the Temple, Eliza's going to hear a knock!! on the sill of her door, and if she glances over a certain chatterbox is poking his head around the corner]
Hiii, Eliza-san!
Hiii, Eliza-san!
[there's a bunch of her chalk eyes on the wall watching in all directions, but ~manners~ means she'll actually look up herself]
Hiii, Keiichi?
Hiii, Keiichi?
[pops the rest of the way around the corner, holding a little bowl of slices of the fruit that can be scavenged around the forest]
Want a snack? I know I was feeling hungry, but it's kind of hectic out there right now--! There's a lot of new people, did you see?

Oh! Sure, thanks.
[she was sitting at a table she'd hauled into the room to make a large workdesk out of, but she gets up and moves to sit on the bed, waving Keiichi to the chair. please, sit!]
And yeah, they're all over the place. I thought we were the only people she was going to send out, but I guess not?

Oh, thanks--!
[he takes a seat, offering the bowl toward her!]
Oh! I guess since I showed up out of nowhere the place I was before this, I kind of expected us to get new people here, too... I'm excited to meet everyone, but maybe after a little break! Since we just got home, too.

[accepts fruit!]
Did the place you were at before have big breaks between places? I feel like I need a break before I meet people and before we move again.

Oh, I don't really know! I was only there for about as long as we were in El Minha... We didn't move out of the first place I showed up before Astoria-san brought me here. Yeah, a break would be nice...! Things got... a little intense.
"Intense" is a good word for it. Very intense!
Yeah! It was... a different kind, back at the other place, but it was still pretty intense there, too. I was hoping it would be more like superheroics here, you know? Like, fighting a dragon or something! Though I probably wouldn't be great at that.
[he grins, trying to keep that last comment light enough that she can either run with the goofy bit or bring it back to the serious part, if she needs to talk about it]

If you want dragon-fighting, we do have two dragons around. I don't know how long you would last against Geir though.
[dragons her favorite distraction from any problem ever]

[aha so we're going with levity, that absolutely works]
About ten minutes and thirty seconds, I bet! That's probably all you need, right?

Sure, that's an accurate-sounding estimate! And seconds!
Well, my barrier lasts for ten minutes a day, so maybe the seconds were being a little bit generous--!
How fast can you sprint is the real question, then!
[l-laughs]
I was a long-distance runner for track, so I might be out of luck! Well, maybe if we all did it as a team. And Geir's on our side, so--!
