breezing | three whirlwinds. VIDEO + ACTION.

[ Strange. Definitely very strange. Ikki knew the room, because it was hers, but it wasn't right. Things weren't there, or were cleaned away, and although she searched around for it, she couldn't find her box or her clothes or even her sister. No matter how hard she tried to think about it, she couldn't really make things mesh in her head.

...Oh well! Humming softly to herself, Ikki opens the journal, going to her favourite setting - video. She doesn't look overly worried, although she's more or less baffled - she fully expects someone will find her and explain things, or at least tell her where to go. ]

Jinoraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! D'you have my things? Or does someone else? 'Cause I can't find 'em. Or you, so I'm using this, although I dunno the chances of you reading this book instead of another book. [ Pouting. It would be so much easier if her sister weren't constantly buried in books. At least there's a very good chance some of her other family members will see this. At least, that's the entire plan - so far as Ikki plans anything. ]

Y'know, I could have really important news and you'd miss it 'cause I can't find you! I mean, I don't. I think. I mean, I guess I sorta do, but not ACTUALLY and if you'd read this you'd probably KNOW it already. I mean, I can probably think of some! But anyway my POINT is that now I'm gonna have to run over to the library 'cause that's probably where you are, and if you aren't I'm basically gonna have to run around everywhere instead 'cause maybe you decided to go sit and read on a bench but how do I know if you did, you know? And it's not like I know all the little places you could be or might be 'cause I'm not totally sure about that right now and anyway this is a bigger area to check than usual which is ANNOYING 'cause I don't know where you are for SURE and you might not be where I think you are and you might not even be where I don't think you are, and that gets CONFUSING.

[ Apparently that was all on one breath, because she has to pause to take another, still gesturing vaguely with her hands. ] Or! I guess I'll go check for my clothes first, 'cause the dress is nice an' all but at least that'd be some of my things down, I guess? An' that's on the way anyway, so I guess that works! But! If you're not here, then you might be there? I mean, 'cause where else would you sleep? [ She's not even really talking to her sister any longer, if she ever was. Hrm. ] 'Kay! So I'll go get my clothes, and then go back and check if you're at the other house. [ Aaaand that's a wrap. Video function ended. Feel free to hit her up in journals/on the path of House 58 > shops > House 56, if you want. ]

[ACTION; HOUSE 56]
[ And post picking up her clothing, Ikki wanders back to her second household - which was the first, a little while back - to locate any of the relatives she hadn't managed to find to begin with. She does not actually knock on the door, but will just go inside and track down anyone who is there. And also probably take an apple or something to eat. ]

'Cause you said you were born in the springtime!

Yes, I remember being hatched then, but I don't see why it deserves a festival.

Edited 2012-09-23 22:21 (UTC)

'Cause we have to thank the world that you were born!

The fact that a life such as mine made it past a hatchling is thanks enough. I am not a natural creature in this world.

What do you mean by that?

I am a mixed blood. Many die shortly after hatchling, if they are allowed to hatch. We are not natural, this is why we are weaker and die. [Just a fact of life.]

[ ...why are all her friends from such depressing worlds? ]

Well, I'm happy you didn't die!

[It's not depressing! It's just facts of life!]

I am as well.

So that's why we'll pick a birthday to celebrate!

[ HER POINT ]

If you wish.

Okay! I checked my calendar!

Your birthday is gonna be April 1st, 'cause that's in the spring! It's riiiiiight near the beginning!

April? [What are months? Ah, what ever. Not like she was going to pay attention to the date.] Fine.

Okay! That gives us lots of time to plan. When that day comes, we'll get allllllll your friends together and eat cake made without salt!

If that is what you would like. [She owes the talkative child she supposes.]

You'll like it, too, trust me!

We shall see, I have never known of these... birthdays... before.

Just leave the party planning to me!

...Anyway! Have you met anyone fun since I was gone?

No. [Not that she cares at all.]

Xzanaaaaa! You should get out a bit more.

I live outside.

It's a human sayin' meaning you should go an talk to people more!

I talk to humans when it is needed.

So you talk to the not-human people more?

I talk to anyone who will listen when it is needed. [She has no real preference towards anyway, but other creatures who are not humans are slightly easier to understand. Humans are confusing!]

I talk to everyone! Well, everyone I meet. And I try to read or listen to all the posts, but there are so many of them.

[Voice]
