I won't tell if you don't tell. [Ooooh, a tiny bottle of wine. It's so small] ...it's something I wouldn't find around here, so it's acceptable. Housewarming complete.
[Putting the wine bottle on the coffee table because she does plan to drink that little bit of booze, she shrugs]
I wanted to ask about that first, though. Why is this place so empty? The houses looked as if someone had been living in them until not that long ago.
[There's one potential answer she's already leaning onto: they all got sacrificed to something iffy. Look, there's that out-of-place pyramid temple in middle of the place, and everyone in Scawwy is in the process of getting sacrificed. Maybe there was a cute and small Animal Crossing murdergame, it could be!]
they will come in to look around though. well, the decor is probably not a lot of her own necessarily, so that doesn't paint a good picture of knowledge. ]
I can't tell you. Not because I won't, but because I do not know. This anomaly is unfamiliar to us as well.
Okay, that's fine. [Disappointing but not entirely unsurprising, she thinks to herself] It feels a little too kind of the world to throw a place so nice at us. I'm waiting for the ugly part to reveal itself soon. Probably coming from that weird pyramid.
[Erin waves at the comfortable and probably too cheery for Erin's tastes seating arrangements, inviting War to relax a little]
Ruling hell always brought its fair share of traitors trying to get rid of me, so I had to get used to not relaxing. Guess you never stop looking behind your back, once you have to do that for long enough...
[Kinda sucks, really, that even though that phase of her life is left behind she probably will never shed the paranoia and distrust fostered from that. Doesn't help that, you know, she's right now in a place where staying alert is a must. Thanks, murdergame]
It's a weird pyramid in an island that looks like it's out of a postcard. So out of place.
[It can't be there just to store hay, she's sure!]
After the whole ruling hell thing I spent years in the manmade purgatory of dull office work. Around that time Fun, Happiness and I stopped being on speaking terms.
[She can look back at the grayness of those boring days with humor now, haha]
Yeah, probably... [Erin sighs] But I'll still take the little nice things no matter what. After being in Scawwy, a clothes store, the beach and having vegetables with actual flavor are too appealing. I'm not passing on that just because I think it's sketchy.
[Taking calculated risks is a must in life...but when you're lacking in certain benefits for a bit too long, the calculations get a biiiiit of leeway, haha]
Wait, I get it. It's like the sun is too strong or too close to your hometown.
[Either that or War is a vampire, like it happened to Camille during the event. She didn't think of that first because this talk happened on Monday and the event on Wednesday]
Biologically, we are a race of people who have become adjusted to being in the dark. I have no other comparison of systems for whether our sun is closer or not, any sort of harsh light is uncomfortable.
Okay, I'll remember to be careful where I call you to. Don't want to be frying you when I feel like having a chat.
[Erin doesn't seem entirely surprised to hear about such a race of people, if only because she has seen many kinds of races and people]
But really, no problems so far? Is everything treating you well enough?
[Scawwy isn't known for being the sunniest place on Earth, and these islands are eternally in sunset. So far, it seems War is in luck, but still...she's already mentally striking down places, to not meet War at them. Yeah, she plans to keep talking to them because it's not so bad, she enjoys it well enough.

This area is unfamiliar to us, though it seems to be a strange... mixture of things I get the impression don't normally coexist.

no subject
I think many of the others would agree with that. It seems they would anyway.
no subject
[What kind of place do you come from, War?]
no subject
[ hehe. ]
I'm from a city ruled by a queen which is shrouded in eternal twilight.
no subject
[Is that supposed to happen, really? Because it sounds pretty abnormal to her, even though she comes from a bastion of weirdness]
no subject
[ very weird, but not for them maybe. ]
