General Floozy

[Have a little clicking around before a familiar voice comes on. But hey, there's something different here. She's screaming to the high heavens and a general's voice carries. It's pretty damn loud.]

No....

NO! ASHE!

[And then the crash of glass as her sword bites into something. This is fear combined with worry for her friends.]

[This is locked so hard to Harry it's not even funny]

Harry? Remember that guy I told you about?

Apparently, he's here...

[There's a huff of air as the mic clicks on and a soft swear that sounds like ''By the Knights and the magic in their blood."]

That was not what I wanted to see. Guess my morning training routine is getting cut from the program.

Ashe... Just so you know. If you need an escort, call on me... and I'll do the same for you.

[A click and a bit of a pause]

Huh... [She sounds interested, curious, as though she just noticed something she'd forgotten]

You know you've been in a place too long when you overlook important dates from home... Another year gone by...

[muttered]

Have I really been here that long?

Whoever's going on a search, let me know where I'm most needed. I can't sit back and watch this unfold.

If no one suggests anything, I'm going by myself. A few crabs can't scare me.

If anyone needs me, I'm going to run around the city to help anyone who's stuck. Wave at me or speak here if you know of somewhere i should be going.

((OOC: she won't answer after this))

What...

Tell me no one got hurt...

Why do things always get interesting when you don't want them to?

Botan, we may have another housemate.

And I've found myself missing my other outfit. The cape was such a nice built-in jacket. I wonder if there are any here...

Just when I think things can't get any stranger...

This place is larger than I anticipated. Finding my way around here will be a challenge, but one I will willingly accept. I managed to find a couple of swords lying around a building close to where I arrived and they don't seem to be in too bad condition.

[muttered]
Are all swords as beaten up as these two?
[/muttered]

I might try to polish them up a little and see if I can recover some of their functionality. They look sturdy enough to keep up with me so I can only hope that they will. I'm not sure what to call them, though. My last two were Illumina and Ragnarok. Hm, maybe something will come to me.

[Pauses and the sound of a sword swiping through the air can be heard, followed by another and then the sound of two pieces of metal clanging to the ground]

At least they move well enough and are fairly decently-weighted.

I'm going to go exploring again. I don't suppose I would mind company, but don't try to stop me.

I don't understand. Why... Kefka, why did you do this?! How could you...?! How could you be so stupid?! And now... now Grandpa... I TRIED! I really...I tried, but now he's dead. He's.. he's gone. I can't bring him back. I looked... I looked at the cliff and I had to... he said the natives would take a leap of faith off that cliff when they needed to, so I decided to go as well. I had no intention of coming back. Apparently, the goddesses didn't want me to.. leave. The dove saved me, the little dove with Locke's bandana. I woke up just in time to yell at it and ask it why it had to save me... and then I found myself somewhere else. I guess I passed out in the water, but what brought me here? And where is here?

[sighs]

People keep mentioning a place called "Manhattan," but it's hard to figure out what that has to do with anything. They also mention "Big Mommy," and that confuses me just as much. At least.. at least I haven't seen Kefka around yet. Watch him turn up now that I've said that. I could live without his laugh grating my nerves every day.

[Another sigh]

I guess I had better find out where I am.. and hope that I dropped my swords nearby. I will hurt something if they aren't within reach.

[Program clicks off]
