1st Shell - Open like a lemonade stand in summer
Who: Xion and open to errybody
Where: Xion's room/hallway, then around Pisces and Virgo wards
Summary: Xion arrives in Hinoto-Ri and engages in standard new arrival procedures, by which we mean gaining her bearings and getting supplies. And then derps about puppies.
Warnings: Probably nothing. Except puppies.
Xion stood before the door to the room she'd been assigned, holding her key and... just thinking. The only other place she'd had a room of her own was Disney Castle, and now this. She hasn't seen any sign of her friends thus far, though she isn't sure if it's too much to expect they'd come here. It was all strange and happening so fast and while a part of her was saying it was the right thing to do she still felt... buffeted around, moved faster than she was ready for.
There was just something so... permanent about getting a room of her own. She can leave if she wants but she still... It's ridiculous. She should just go in already. She's been standing there long enough it probably looks strange to people nearby. And yet still she's hesitating.
---
Later, Xion took to the streets, keeping a wary eye all around. She's not... actively hiding. She doesn't even have her coat on, since it would probably stick out. But she's still being careful. It sounded like this city was the kind of place where you would want to be anyway.
In the Virgo ward, she headed to a grocery store her way through food, and those who are more experienced might note that what she's collecting are foods that require little to no cooking. She also stopped at a more general convenience store, looking for other supplies she might need. It's strange for her, shopping like this - she's used to getting all of their supplies from a Moogle, usually, and it was still no more than they would really need for camping for a few days. How did one shop for furniture, or that sort of thing, given how bare her apartment was?
As she was walking back towards Pisces, though, she spotted something that made her stop, walk over and almost press her nose against the glass - it was a pet store, with some of their adoptable dogs in a display in the window.
It's probably the first time she's smiled since she arrived, but she can't help it. They're so cute-!

Hallo!
Oh... yeah, I am. I just got here.
[She pauses, a little unsure what to say.]
Thanks. I can probably figure it out, but... I don't mind.
[Help, that is.]

[Well. "Unsettling" in normal human kind of way. Elizabeth herself is never particularly unsettled with anything concerning Personas, although the circumstances of the city don't particularly sit well with her.]
My name is Elizabeth, and I reside in the abode just in front of you. Quite obviously, I suppose.
no subject
[This is sort of awkward. She's still not used to interacting with people who aren't Kairi or Riku or any of the residents of Disney Castle (or Roxas and Axel of course).]
I guess I'm not sure what questions to ask yet.
[She's... only just got here, there are so many of them.]

When you arrive here, you are given something called a Persona. Much like your kind's psychological definition, a Persona is a mask -- it is something to allow to take form and help direct how you live. It is not consciously done, however here it takes a more physical form. There are two types.
[She'll step out fully, holding a book. It doesn't really hold any cards, not quite yet -- she only has Thanatos's, if that. Even if it no longer held the tarot within it, she feels it acts as a sufficient medium to concentrate on when attempting to contact her god of death.]
Support-type Personas help others, usually by directing them where to go and analyzing enemies. Combat-type Personas fight, and are generally on the front lines. Now -- what type were you gifted with?
gklasdjflk sorry for the edit orz
[She remembers most of what happened before and during her arrival, though sorting through it all and what it all meant was a bit more complicated. Plus she hasn't ever had a need to call on her Persona yet.
There's a pause before she adds, quietly]
My kind?
[She normally doesn't feel... well, as self-conscious or uncomfortable about her nature and origins as she used to be, but did they know already who and what she was? Was it that obvious?]
it's okay!!
And she can't cop out any illusions because her book isn't powerful enough for it here so, well. She'll go on first impression.]
no subject
[Nooooo comment. Not right now a least.
... time for a topic change.]
How do I find out about my... Persona?
