destinystrings | 1st Illusion: Intro

Who: Chrome Dokuro and anyone!
Where: Virgo Ward and Capricorn Ward.
Summary: Chrome has recently arrived, and after watching some dancing Frosts, it's time to buy some stuff and make sure her powers are still in shape.
Warnings: Illusions and moe.

[Virgo Ward]

[Watching dancing demons was entertaining, but Chrome did need to go out and buy supplies. She hadn't bothered to use the network for anything yet besides info gathering, since she had more important things to focus on. Like buying food.

Except Chrome, while being a bit braver in social situations than she was before, was not used to large, noisy crowds. So this? This is a bit overwhelming.]

Um... Excuse me-[And her attempt to talk to a vendor is quickly cut off by a loud shout from another vendor, and she's soon lost in the crowd again. But she's determined to keep trying, even though she looks pretty uncertain and she's holding her black bag to her chest like a shield.

... And her voice is a bit too quiet to be heard over all the noise whoops. So she might need a bit of help.]

[Capricorn Ward]

[While she knew her illusion skills were still in tact, given to how she wasn't suddenly coughing up blood from lack of organs, it doesn't hurt to practice and to make sure her illusions are still as strong as before. And luckily this empty plain is a perfect practice spot.

So, after getting her trident ready to act as a focus, she'll just close her eye and concentrate. After a moment, a flock of black birds appears in front of her and fly around the sky, looking and sounding very real. She soon appears her eye, and glances up at the birds, looking pleased with herself before they vanish.

And next she'll slam the bottom end of her trident to the ground, and a few pillars of fire shoot out from the ground, once again looking and feeling real, if the heat is any indication.

And Chrome just seems pleased with her results.]

... Hmm. So then it's usually quiet here?

As much as a place like this where we have been brought so suddenly can be.

... I see. And the 'Persona' thing... Have you been able to summon yours yet?

I haven't.

[Chrome nods, her eye glancing to the side before looking back at Nessiah.]

... And have you seen or heard of anyone summoning theirs yet?

I know that some have, but I have not seen it.

... I see. [And she gives him another, quick bow. She should thank people for helping her, right?] Ah... Thank you, Nessiah-san.

It's nothing to thank me for.

Mm... [She nods.] ... Though if I can ask one more question, do you know anything of the Anoli? Besides what we have already been told.

Nothing that is of use.

Hmm... [Another nod as she shifts the trident into a less defensive position.] ... So then it is too early to decide who to ally with, if anyone.

[She has a feeling of who her Boss might ally with, but it's best to explore options just in case.]

Those are my feelings. And yet most seem to have automatically joined the ranks of the city as they were asked to.

... With how the Anoli are presented as the 'bad guys', it isn't surprising. Until we can find out more about them, I am reluctant to pick a side.

Then you are more sensible than most.

Ah... Thank you, Nessiah-san. Though I do this in order to better follow and aid my Boss here.

You have someone you know from home? How fortunate.

[Chrome nods, smiling faintly.] Yes... While there is someone from home I really miss, I'm glad that Boss is here.

He is your immediate superior, then.

... He is one of them, yes.

It is more complicated when you have more than one superior - inevitably they somehow come to odds.

... [Judging by the faintly sheepish look on her face?

Yeah, they've certainly come to odds alright.]

I apologize if this is a sensitive subject.

No, it's fine... And they've started to get along recently, at least. ['Get along' used in the loosest sense. Her Boss is perfectly friendly, it's just her other 'boss'...]

Excellent news, I'm sure.

... Yes. They still don't always see eye-to-eye, but things are... better than before.
