[here we have Triela in the kitchen, wandering around searching for someone. She turns to a nearby ghost]

Are you my brother?

[the ghost floats away and she continues her search]

Do you have any idea if he's at Paradisa at all?

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

I don't remember him, so I'm not sure.

[andcockleshells.livejournal.com]

Well, that makes things complicated. Why do you miss him if you don't remember him, even?

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

Because... [she doesn't know how to explain] I'm supposed to have him with me.

[andcockleshells.livejournal.com]

Oh, uhm...

Let's get some tea, and then we'll figure this out.

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

Okay. [she smiles a little] I'm Triela, by the way.

[andcockleshells.livejournal.com]

And I'm Maryweather. It's nice to meet you!

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

Nice to meet you, too. That's a very interesting name.

[andcockleshells.livejournal.com]

Really? Well, so is Triela. For me, at least.



Do you know how this functions? I don't want to mess up.

[smiles and kindly helps with the tea brewing process]

My roommate Claes and I used to have tea together all the time. I can show you how to make it if you want.

[andcockleshells.livejournal.com]

Thanks.



It's just that I'm not used to this kind of stove.

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

Oh, I see. I guess everything in this place takes some getting used to.

[andcockleshells.livejournal.com]

It probably does. Yet, I know what castles look like. It's just parts of it that are strange to me.

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

[she nods] The same's probably true for everyone.

[andcockleshells.livejournal.com]

I guess - except if it incidentally looks like someone's home. But how high are the chances of that?

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

I've been told that it's magic, so it can look however it wants.

[andcockleshells.livejournal.com]

So have I. But it does mostly look the same, right?

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

Not always. It changes sometimes.

[andcockleshells.livejournal.com]

Yes. It did during the last few days.

How long have you been here, anyway?

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

One month. It changed shortly after I arrived.

[andcockleshells.livejournal.com]

Really? Permanently?

I've only been here for... not even a week.

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

Not permanently, but longer than a day. It was a week.

[andcockleshells.livejournal.com]

What did it too?

[killcondition.livejournal.com]

It changed into a ship. A lot of people died.

[takes the kettle off and pours two cups]

[andcockleshells.livejournal.com]

What? They died?
