paradisa | (no subject)

[What ho Paradisa. If you are the lobby now, you might find a somewhat unusual sight: three kids - well, two kids and one young teenager, really, the teenager conspicuously naked and sprawled out on one of the lobby couches. The teenager has long blue hair and is filthy. The kids are relatively clean, one of them - the older boy - graced with a crown of pale blond hair, the other a smaller little girl wearing a traditional robe and black pigtails. There's a journal nearby of course, and it picks up a voice which might sound a bit familiar:]

Hey... person! Hey! How come you're naked?

[Then the younger boy:] Because he's got no clothes, stupid.

I'm not stupid! [That seems to rile the little girl up; she gives the boy next to her a push.

It looks like this minor ruckus is enough to wake the third boy anyhow.] Whuh...?

[What do, Paradisa?]

[ooc: Yep, starting this loss a tad earlier than planned; tagging pattern will be something of a clusterfuck. There is no particular order planned; if you'd like to discuss any details, ping Stick on AIM at teamtoques, Red at LostBlueHeights, or Senri at Sushiflop.]

Nice...?

[aren't rich people, you know... kind of jerks? that's who lives in castles, right? oh--a legato distraction!]

What's that?

Yeah-huh! Everybody was super nice to me and then... [A pause. Somebody told her her parents would come get her but she doesn't think that was what happened... what did happen? Also, where are her memories of her parents? Her face crinkles, expression going perturbed for a moment.] Uh... and then I guess I was there for a while and now I'm here again? [And she shuts up to stare at Legato.]

[nggh, he hesitates. Is he really going to bother answering this kid?

...Well, if they're like him and don't really know why they're there, then maybe it's worthwhile. Suppose it couldn't hurt, anyway. He gestures with the book, but he's holding it like he doesn't really like the thing]

Everyone here has one.

Let me see.

[he abandons Rin for a moment to try and take the book from him. :|]

[Rin crowds after him anyway. :|] I wanna see too!

[he kind of pushes the book at the him before the kid can really try to pull it away]

Look around. You probably have one too.

[not being helpful, just hoping that it's true. looking for commonalities, here]

[yup, happy to take it off your hands.

unlike Legato, he decides to take a seat on the couch until someone tells him not to. he'll flip open the book and start looking at the pages as if he actually comprehends AAAANYTHING on the pages.]

[Rin scrambles up on the couch after him! Before anything else she looks back at Legato again.]

Hey, you still really need clothes! Aren't you cold?

I don't have any.

[answered offhandedly as he scoots over to peek around the couch. watching for people, letting little bits of memory come back the more he looks around]

Told you.

[see? naked = not having clothes. he is a goddamn genius.]

Then we gotta get him some, dummy. [Zelman how can you be so obtuse. She diverts her attention to the journal after a second.]

Hey, I think I remember these things!

[and he diverts his attention back to her! Maybe there actually was something to her claim about being here before?]

You do?

You do? [but... he doesn't remember anything. D:]

Uh huh! Kinda! [She goes to pull the journal away from Zelman. If she gets it she'll flip way forward to a blank page and point as her words are written out with her speech.] It writes, you talk! And you can talk to everybody, see?

[at first, he looks at her like she's crazy. ...and then it clicks!]

Oh yeah!

Everybody...? [nuh-uh. he doesn't like this.] Who is everybody?

There's a whole bunch'a people who live here. But they're really nice.

Just people.

[nothing special about them, except for being particularly weird, from what he distantly recalls]

Just people... [he likes Legato's answer better, but it gets him thinking.]

Hey, why do you have blue hair?

Yeah! Also, how come you're naked?

[he unconsciously leans a little away at the questions suddenly turning in his direction. he'll only bother with the first one though]

My hair's always been this color.

[yeah Rin, that's a dumb question. B|]

Why are your eyes yellow? Are you a devil?

- oooh! [She leans away from Legato, eyes popping wide - and then realizes something]

Hey, don't ignore me!

[yeah, no, totally ignoring the little girl. He shoots the boy something of an odd look, head tilting slightly]

A devil?

Stop talking. [HANDS ON SHOULDERS AGAIN.]

You don't know what a devil is? What about angels?

[...hmmmmm.] Does that mean you're from really far away? Is that why you're different colors? Can you do strange things? Are you magic?
