paradisa | ✭ 075

Hey guys. Did you know? Paradisa's moon is actually blue... you think I would have noticed that, but I guess I just either forgot, or I just stopped looking at the moon seriously. It's actually really pretty, but if you think about it... why is it blue? Is the moon itself blue, or is it caused by some weird reflection coming off of the earth.

Oh, that reminds me, I can't remember... is the sky blue because it's reflecting off the blue of the ocean, or is the ocean blue because it's reflecting the blue of the sky? I know it's one of the two, but I can't remember which. I was thinking about it while I was watching the sky earlier, and it was really bugging me. So if anyone can help me with that, that would be great.

[but Maya, why have you been sitting here and staring at the sky all day? Well, all of the wishes that she's accumulated over the last three years have caught up with her, and she's been stuck on the roof for pretty much the whole day. Over the course of the day she's slowly inched her way over to her journal, so that's a step in the right direction. But, of course, Maya being Maya, it's not like she's going to admit that her energy is all sapped, so you get to listen to her inane ramblings :) Congratulations]

Another thing, where do constellations come from? People just made them up in older times by looking for shapes in the stars, right? So... doesn't that mean that anyone could make up a constellation? If that's the case, I know what's going to be my next project.

[ooc: feel free to respond either over the journal or in person... if you're hanging out on the roof]

Yikes, I can see why that's pretty dangerous.

So you're not channeling them or anything, they just have their own forms? That's a really cool power.

Right. Some of them have enough power to summon themselves, but they can't sustain their time in the mortal plane for a long time - depending on how strong a spirit they are.

Often as not they're borrowing my power when I call them out, so it wears me out if I call too many at a time.

I guess that makes sense. Wow, your world sounds really neat.

Hee, thank you. [ She and Natsu will go back home one day - she's sure of it. ]

What is your world like?

A lot more normal than your world. We have some crazy people in it, but otherwise it's just plain-old-Earth.

Earth? That's funny - my world is called Earthland.

R-Really? I wonder if they're related...

I don't know - I'm not sure if there's any way of finding out for sure.

Ah - by the way, my name is Lucy; Lucy Heartfilia.

We could look for some history books in the library? Maybe you're world used to be mine in the past, or vica versa.

It's nice to meet you Lucy, I'm Maya Fey.

Nice to meet you too, Maya!

That's a good idea - it's going to take us forever to go through all of those books though. That library takes up three floors; have you seen it? [ That thing is HUGE. HUUUUUGE. ]

It's pretty huge, but I think we can do it. We just need to put our mind to it.

Then it sounds like a plan. I don't know if our worlds really are related, but I am pretty interested to find out, to be honest.

How long have you been here, Maya?

A couple years! So I'd say I know my way around the library.

A couple of --

[ A COUPLE OF YEARS? That's ... give her a minute. ]

T...that's such a long time...

Yeah.. but don't worry, I'm the exception, not the rule. You probably won't be stuck here for that long.

I hope not. [ A pause. ]

How do you do it? You've been here so long you must miss your home, right?

Yeah, I really miss my home and my friends.

... But on the other hand, I really care about the friends that I've made here. And I feel like I've grown a lot while I've been here... so I just focus on that whenever I feel down.

Aah, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you think about things like that.

... but I'm glad that you made friends here especially if it makes things easier for you and all.

I think making friends here helps everyone.

And look at you! You've just made one friend, I bet you'll make a ton. [:)]

[ HEE. ]

You're sweet Maya. I hope you're right - and I'm glad we can be friends.

Aw, you're going to make me blush! I'd say you're the sweet one!

[hehe :')] Same here. Give me a holler if you ever need help with anything, okay?

[ She laughs at that. ]

Okay, and you can do the same for me!

Sounds like a deal.
