[01 | Action (Re-Intro)]

[platinumheritance]

[Rita was all sorts of intrigued by this place. It was like nothing she'd ever seen, heard, or read of before. She'd read of other planes before, but never into any detail. Everything was new to her, the technology especially.

It was a strange place to have been sent, though. Was it purposeful, for her to have been sent to a school? If she weren't so overwhelmingly curious and interested in learning more about this place and everything in it, she probably would have done more to find out Bahamut's intentions in sending her to Balamb Garden.

For the time being, she's wandering around the garden, reading the letter over and flipping through the course catalog. She was trying to make sense of the courses, mostly, but also trying to decide which to enroll in. She'd never been in a school before.

As for everyone else, well, there's a young girl with a sizable pair of platinum-scaled wings. Even her clothes stand out a bit: her dress looks like the sort of thing a young noble girl of older times might wear, complete with jewels and other such shiny things sewn into it.

What are you gonna do about her?]

Comments

just to have it all on one place

[misspouncellor]

[Will you look at that? They look like dragon wings, man, would Terezi ever love to smell this. She has that tell-tale letter that tells Nepeta she is new, so being friendly as ever Nepeta decides to approach her]

Hi there! Did you just arrive?

[platinumheritance]

[Fortunately Rita had already gotten a bit of help with explanations of things, but there was still so much to learn, right? She turned to Nepeta when she arrived, staring curiously at her. She was certainly a strange sight.]

Yes, I did. [The slightest pause.] What are you?

[misspouncellor]

Me? I'm a troll. And what about you? I didn't know humans could grow wings!

[platinumheritance]

[Troll? Nepeta didn't look at all like a troll. She supposed there was the gray skin, but that was it.]

Are you sure you're a troll? I've never heard of one being so small. And you certainly don't look very gruesome.

[misspouncellor]

[Man were trolls these big hulky things everywhere else?]

Yea, I'm sure. At least where I come furrom. I've heard that trolls are real diffurent in other worlds.

ohgosh that icon is too cute /melts

[platinumheritance]

[She thinks about it for a second.]

Yes, I suppose that would make sense. You look more like a human with horns and a tail than an entirely different species.

/mops up :33

[misspouncellor]

[Augh don't say things like that, Rita. She smiles regardless]

I'm Nepeta. Do you need any help with anything?

/gets everywhere

[platinumheritance]

[It was, like, a compliment!]

My name is Rita Coulia. [She brings up her little bundle of welcome-papers.] I don't think I need too much help. I met someone else helpful a few minutes ago... I still don't know how I'm supposed to use one of those.

Um.

Computer things.

OOC

[bunnypassingby]

Yo! This comm's comments will be imported as soon as the limit's lifted, so do you want to want to keep the thread with Mikuru from the LJ comm as canon?

Re: OOC

[platinumheritance]

Ya! Of course.

[nevergetscredit]

[Merlin is going to stand, blatantly gaping at her. The noble clothes and jewelry he's seen before - after all he'd seen Morgana wear such things often enough - but he definitely had never seen a girl with wings]

[platinumheritance]

[Rita is used to being gawked at, and this isn't too different. When she glances up to make sure she's on the right path, she notices Merlin staring at her. She turns to him, looking just the slightest bit annoyed.]

Is there something you need?

[nevergetscredit]

[Merlin starts, and his jaw snaps ship

I'm sorry, it's just...I've never seen anyone like you before. [and Merlin looks just a little bit wistful and amazed, as well as surprised. Her wings are amazing...]

[platinumheritance]

[At least he apologized. That was a bit refreshing from the usual.]

It doesn't seem many people here have.

[The amazement from him is different, though. It's a little... strange. People were amazed and ecstatic about her appearance before, but that was because they wanted things from her. This felt different. Did he just... want to look at her?]

Well... is there something you need?

[nevergetscredit]

Need? No, it's just...I hope you don't mind me asking, but...what are you? Are you a creature of magic?

[platinumheritance]

You're more polite about it than others have been in the past. I don't mind. I'm a human blessed with the inheritance of a dragon, and made dragonblooded. I suppose I might be a creature of magic; it's been some time since I put much thought to it.

[nevergetscredit]

A dragon? [And now Merlin is once again looking at her with surprise. He would almost have thought that having the inheritance of a dragon might mean she was like a dragonlord - but Merlin was a dragonlord himself, and he certainly didn't have wings.] How? I didn't think dragons could ever...well, make someone like you.

[...this didn't mean that Kilgharrah could have given him wings, did it?!]

[platinumheritance]

Yes, a dragon. [She might have thought he was just surprised about the dragon bit before he said anything else. She figured he was talking about her wings, since they were all that really distinguished her. She found she took offense to his wording of it, however. Her lips turned down into a slight frown, but answered him all the same.]

I was not made, I was born. Dragon magic is capable of many things. [She opened her wings slightly, to emphasize them.] These were given to me.

[bratbeyond]

[It's not every day Damian sees someone dressed like that. He tilts his head at her as he passes by:]

You should probably hurry up and get to drama class already.

[platinumheritance]

[Rita turns to the boy with a bit of a scowl on her face. She spreads her wings, flapping them once and creating a gust, to emphasize that they are, in fact, real. They're nearly seven foot across each.]

I'm not an actor.

[bratbeyond]

[Huh. Day stares at her wings for a moment longer than necessary before shrugging.]

Guess you aren't.

... I haven't seen you around before, right?

[platinumheritance]

[Rita just stares at him until he speaks again, and when he does she lets out a small 'hmph' before closing her wings.]

No, I've only just arrived here.

[bratbeyond]

Thought so.

[He nods, folding his arms and gesturing towards the rest of Garden] Has anyone given you the grand tour yet? Or did they leave that to me?

[platinumheritance]

[She's still frowning at him.]

I've just been wandering around, and looking at things on my own.

[bratbeyond]

Yeah? How's that going so far? [He's half-genuine, half-sarcastic. Rita's expression really doesn't phase him, even if her wings do.]
