Rating/Warnings: Please add warnings to your top-levels/threads as needed


The streets of Krajina Božstiev are dusty and crowded. So many people on their way to live their lives. Markets, taverns, the Temple, the Palace. What do you look at first? What do you buy? Where to do you find yourself exploring?

Take a moment to appreciate the shine of the Temple. The beauty of the Palace gardens. The quiet serenity of the Library. The simplistic, but filling food in the taverns. Or the peaceful quaintness of the hills. A new world has opened up and somehow it all just seems simpler over here. People seem happy (mostly) in this existence.

Maybe...

Watch out for the occasional person going into a rage on the other side of the street or tavern. That can't mean anything...

"Sylv!" Elliott grinned, then faltered. "S-sorry. Emberto, I mean."

God, how long was that going to be awkward?

"This is uh, Lisa. I dunno know if you've met yet? Lisa, this is Emberto. He's someone from my memories."

As for trouble, well... he still had some of that honeyed mead.

Lisa's initial impression is of loudness - not in volume but in presence. Which isn't a bad thing, mind you, but it makes her wonder how long Elliott's known this person. The stumble on his name amplifies that significantly. But when he gets around to that second name, she feels like a lot of that is explained in a single breath.

"Oh, Emberto! Yes, we met on the network, but this is the first time in person. Good to see you." She grins like an idiot at his caution. "Mischief? Well, I never! Which is to say, not yet."

Emberto chuckled. "You know, you can just call me 'Sylv' if you like," he told Elliot. "I suspect that it'll save a great deal of time in the long run." The boy did look adorable when flustered, though Emberto had more than enough tact not to tell him so in front of a girl.

"And it's good to meet you in person, Lisa. Though I'll admit that I wasn't expecting our first encounter to happen in a tavern." Mostly because in their own world, he suspected that neither of them would even be allowed in.

"In any case, it's clear that you two youngsters need a responsible adult to be your chaperone. Both to keep you from getting into too much mischief and to make certain you get home safely." No, he hadn't missed their drinks. "I'll go order up something for myself, then be right back."

Elliott colored, but at least Sylvando didn't seem inclined to lecture them or forbid them from indulging any further.

"Ah.. okay," he said, watching him go before turning to Lisa and vaguely apologetic. "Well it shouldn't be too bad having him along.."

[traceofeffort]

"Eh, it's fine," Lisa answerrd, waving Elliott off. "I shouldn't monopolize your time anyway. I'm okay in the background, y'know? Just spending time with my friends is enough, and I've imposed on you a lot already with, uh. Earlier." She had the grace to flush just a tiny bit.

It didn't take long for Emberto to return with his own honeyed mead in hand and an order of stew on the way. "Alright then," he said as he sat down with them. "Now, I hope I'm not being too much of a party pooper, imposing myself on the two of you like this, but you're the first other 'Different' I've run into here. So tell me, how have you two been enjoying your visit to another universe? I know I'm having a wonderful time, especially since we were lucky enough to come into town just in time for a festival."
