1st Petal- Action | Arrival | Library

[Complete quiet and warmth were the first things that met him when he came to. Opening his eyes was almost too hard a task. He could not remember a time when sleep had been so peaceful. It was sort lived, however. Yuu’s heart skipped a beat when his eyes focused and he didn’t recognize his surroundings.

He was quick to slip out of bed and hide between it and the wall. He took a quick peak over the mattress, hoping no one had seen him. Where was he? None of the Order’s rooms he’s been to had the attributes this one possessed. It didn't help that the last thing he remembered before waking was cold and two figures looming over him. A voice, deep and raspy, was chanting something in the background, but besides that, nothing was clear enough to give him the slightest clue as to what happened.

Yuu waits in his hiding spot for a couple of minutes before he, ever so quietly, made his way to the door… Which had no handles. Before he could question said door, it opened once he approached it enough and, not questioning why, left his room.

His first thought was to find Alma (if he was even there) and get out before they were taken back.

The surroundings that met him were unlike anything he’s seen before. The overall feel, the way it was lit and even the smells were different.

Wherever this place was, it wasn’t the Order.

After a while of hiding from the occasional passer-by and searching, Yuu stopped when he arrived to what looked like a library. A bit overwhelmed by his current situation, alone, tired and hungry, Yuu sat down at a lonely corner, tucked his knees close to his chest, and hid his face in his arms.

[When he got a break from classes, Tim was in the library. The tour given to him by his friends, and the meetings he had were fine, but if you wanted to know more about a place, you read up on it.

Which is why he has five books all open and spread out among the table he's using. That didn't mean he wasn't aware of the situation around him, though. Seeing someone sit in a corner like that wasn't something normal.

Getting up from his seat, he went and crouched down near the other kid.]


Hey, are you okay?

[So he wasn't fine, but he didn't need to press him on that. He sets a book aside and watches him carefully for a moment.]

I'm Tim. And you're in Balamb Garden. It's a school in a different universe then the one you're probably from.

[It's not often that Gabriella sees someone hiding in the Library. Studying, yeah... but hiding? Nnnot so much. After a moment, she sits beside him and attempts to gently pat his shoulder.]

Rough day?

[Gets up from his chair at the library table, ready to leave for his next class when he spots someone in the corner. Usually, most who huddle in a corner have a book, at least, but this person had none.

Walks over to him, standing about an arm's length away before kneeling. No use in towering over the other.]


Are you alright?

[Tim shook his head no, turning in his chair to look at him better.]

I don't know what the Order is, but I'm certain it's not a part of it. You are not home. You're in a completely separate world.

[Well that was a new one. Maybe he'd just arrived...]

Because it's not common for people to hide here? Especially since it's not finals week. [bites her lip] I mean... if you want me to leave you alone, I guess I could.

[Tim shook his head.]

I only got here recently, so I don't know too many people. What's your friend's name?

I asked if you were alright. You seem a bit...distressed.

[identity profile] theshortestbird.livejournal.com 2011-06-30 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
It seems like it. Most of the students here are people from other worlds.

[He shook his head no.]

I'm sorry, I've never heard of him.

[Smiles wryly. Loners are a strange bunch.]

You might want to try your own room, then.

[identity profile] theshortestbird.livejournal.com 2011-06-30 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
I think so. It seems like it, anyway. Most of the people here, you'll find they're from somewhere else. Something pulled them here, just like it did with me, and like it did with you.

Well, then there's a slim chance of actually being alone. I mean...[Glances around idly.] It's a public place and such. [Looks back to him. Ah, he doesn't seem pleased...]

[He arches an eyebrow. He knew he did have some sort of Gotham accent, which was distinct enough at times, but he couldn't mean that.]

You mean the United States of America? I'm from a city called Gotham, and it's in the US.
