1st Adventure

[Action1 : 921 Bilko Blvd. Waking up is awfully strange, especially when you don't sleep. Aurora Belle sits up in the bed for a few moments, blinking in confusion. Everything around her was solid, as well. Was this some new fancy house in the Afterlife? They certainly never had pajamas before there. Or sleeping people.

Speaking of. Poke poke, sleeping man. There's a lovely new wife for you to wake up to.]


Hello! Hi. Um. I have a lot of questions for you, if you don't mind.

[After that, it's off to explore the house. She'll be gawking at the photos, poking the appliances, and generally touching anything and everything like it is all shiny, new and novel. This will lead to a phone call to everyone! There's a clattering sound as the receiver hits the ground.]

Oh no! Did I break it? What... How do these things work again? [Insert the sound of the receiver being fiddled with.]


[Later, Action 2: Aurora has taken to the streets to explore her surroundings. Despite any warnings she may have been given, she looks like she's having a grand old time. She looks positively giddy as she comes upon the park. She'll be stopping whoever passes by to share her joy with.]

Isn't. This. AMAZING? I had no idea that the sun felt like this! Or that the air smelled like this! [She breathes in and lets out a deep breath.] And that breathing is so easy! You don't even have to think about it or anything! Or blinking, either! Or a lot of things! Hey, do you think I can climb that tree?

[Well, okay. Iceland will just stand there while she talks about ridiculous things so it's nothing he's not used to.]

I don't know. Can you?

[She grins widely, and giggles.] Only one way to find out!

[And off she goes! ...To struggle vainly. It doesn't seem to be stopping her yet, though.]

[He'll just stand over here.]

Maybe you should start with a smaller tree.

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-13 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
No way! I like this one. It looks like it'll have the nicest view!

[Jumping... jumping... Hey, she grabbed a branch! She was once an athletic girl, but climbing wasn't what she did.]
volcanoes: (least said soonest mended)

[personal profile] volcanoes 2011-09-13 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
The higher branches might not hold you.

[Iceland did you just make a comment about a lady's weight because she's looking mildly affronted here.]

I'm not heavy! It'll be fine. I'm not some klutzy cow.

[She manages to pull herself up to the first branch, looking satisfied now.]
volcanoes: (loans seldom get home laughing)

[personal profile] volcanoes 2011-09-13 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
[Looking a bit thrown off.]

N-no, I meant the ones way up high won't hold a person at all.

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-13 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. [She looks a little embarrassed.] Sorry.

[She sits there for a moment, looking around, swinging her legs.] I'm Aurora. Nice to meet you.

[Nice name, but he is biased.]

I'm Iceland. Did you just get here?

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-13 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
I did! Just today. I guess I give off that impression. Is this place really that bad? It seems very nice.

Maybe if you like swallowing razor blades.

....You don't mean that literally, do you? Cuz you look like you do.

[personal profile] volcanoes 2011-09-13 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
I do. That's what happened in August. Well, sometimes it was poison or spiders.

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-13 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
[She looks like she has a hundred questions she wants to ask. But she'll just opt for:] Why? Why would that even happen?

[Iceland shrugs.] Mayfield just likes doing things to us.

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-13 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
That doesn't even make sense. Why bring people here just to hurt them? Why bring people back from the dead to try and kill them again?

[personal profile] volcanoes 2011-09-19 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[Iceland shrugs.]

I guess they just want to.

Just for fun? That's terrible. I'd like to think there's at least something else behind it...
volcanoes: (least said soonest mended)

[personal profile] volcanoes 2011-09-21 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
Experimenting on us?

[All his ideas are terrible.]

[identity profile] forever-cheery.livejournal.com 2011-09-21 02:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm, I guess that's as possible as anything else, but it's terrible... Not that there will be any good to kidnapping that I can think of.

Yeah, you shouldn't expect anything good.
