CHARACTER CHAT!!!!

Aw okay, bye

"It's finally yesterday's tomorrow," she said exitedly, and then added with a cock of her head, "I have to wonder what you've been doing all this time. It must get awful boring, not to sleep."

Sanae
"Just wandering, mostly. It's a very big house." I cock my head in response with a small smile. "I have to wonder what's fun about sleeping."

"Sleeping in itself isn't too interesting. It's the dreaming that's fun." Annaleah said matter-of-factly.

"Dreams..." I test out the word, unsure of it. "They don't sound fun either."

Sorry! My computer was wigging out XP

Annaleah smiled. "Oh, but they are! When you're in a dream you can do anything, and it's unlike anything else...well, nightmares are a different story. But dreams are terrific."

Sanae
I don't understand, but i nod anyway. I look towards the sound of footsteps coming.

"Good morning, Papa. I trust you slept well?" Annaleah said, flashing a practiced innocent smile as her father crossed their path.

"Not at all," the Warden said, stopping to inspect the two. He was in uniform. "Pardon my poor hospitality, but I have work to do. Annaleah. Miss Sanae," he nodded at them, and continued on his way. He would have rathered stay at home that day, and make sure that his family remained in proper order. But heavy rain was an unfortunate event for those in the bottom cells at the prison, and he had to make sure that no damage had been done.

Sanae
"I see." Very official. A show of status and nothing more. Just like this giant house.

Annaleah frowned as she watched him go. He was so stiff nowadays. It wouldn't matter if he went to work or not, he would still have the same nonexistant personality. She sighed. "Well, we can find something to do, or we can stand around in a hallway, attempting casual conversation. I vote the prior."

Sanae
I smile and nod. "What?"

Annaleah thought for a moment. "Well, I always like to simply start walking when I'm bored, and see where I end up. I've found a few adventures that way."

Sanae
I nod and get my sweatshirt from the room before coming back down while covering my wings again.

(hmm, what adventures should they come across in the city? Gypsies? Gangs? Street kids? XD This'll be fun.)

lol...whatever. It's going to be a bit odd with sanae's precognition XD

haha XD Yeah...how'll we work that out? If you want you can just kinda say "I saw someone coming" and whatnot and I can fill in the blanks. So nonspecific predictions. Or we can just go like normal and then Sanae can be like, "yeah, I know that" XD

lol...it changes for her though, depending on the decisions of the people around her.

Hmm...so I'll give the decisions, (or you can just make assumptions XD) and then you'll make the predictions and I'll fill in the blanks, and so on?

sure

Okay! Let's get this show on the road!

They ventured out the door and into the tangled streets. The Mainlands were just awakening with the smell of fresh bread and late summer flowers, but the Lowlands were just drifting to sleep. Annaleah felt the urge to find adventure sweep over her, as it always did. "First things first, where are we headed? Mainlands or Lowlands?" Annaleah asked.

Sanae
I look ahead a bit. "If you want adventure, Mainlands seem to be pretty boring as far as the near future."

"I figured," Annaleah said, looking in the direction of the bridge that drew the line between the two. "Lowlands it is, then. Although, I'd be careful...you don't have anything of much value with you at the moment, do you?" First rule of the Lowlands: don't carry anything you're not prepared to lose.

Sanae
I look over myself. "Other than being one of a kind on this planet..." Or anywhere.

Annaleah nodded. "If we stay away from that far side, I'm sure we won't run into too much trouble," she said, pointing to the old bell tower looming in the distance. "Trust me, I should know." She flashed a mischeivous smile as she crossed the bridge.

Sanae
I follow, glancing around curious. It was obvious i wasn't from here anyways.

The streets melted away into canals, and new scents filled the air; salt and fish and seawater. Annaleah had grown accustomed to it, but she knew that to a newcomer the smell would hit like a wall. "Welcome to the Lowlands," Annaleah said. There weren't any people out that they could see, but occasionally a soft whistle would echoe from a nearby stone island, and as they came closer to the heart of the lowlands it became apparent that they weren't alone. Shadows and silhouettes flitted across walls and mingled on rooftops.
