3.1

[Although the CAT is on and streaming, Mu doesn't seem to be paying much attention to it. It can be seen that he's moving through the town at quite a clip, and he doesn't seem to be very happy. Unlike the last time people saw him, Mu is actually in full cloth now, though his helmet is tucked under one arm.

If anything, he just looks bewildered, and maybe a little bit angry.]


This...this can't be, I was just...

[He's silent for a beat, coming to a stop and composing himself, and finally looking at the CAT.]

Why are we back here? I've heard plenty of chatter, so I'm sure someone has an answer.

She must be incredible.

[…sort of. Hawk leans back a little, looking up.] Mana was fading- ah, mana is the force that supports everything in my world, it's… it comes from the Mana Tree, the goddess's physical form. She turned herself into the Tree years ago, after she formed the world… With the fading of mana, the Tree was fading too- I don't know which came first, now. [he shakes his head and looks forward again, frowning.] …in any case. There were people who wanted to take advantage of that- one bested the others, and took the tool of the Goddess for himself. Only… she had enough to resist him, a little, and he cut the Tree down.

[Well, that's useless. Vriska sighs a little and then tries for another answer.]

I guess it's not important for now. Why do you think you were brought back? Why bother letting you go if they were going to bring you back here anyway! Sounds dumb to me!

[Mu's comment comes right as Sophie stumbles and has to use the wall to catch her balance. she's going to need some time to get used to her lack of a tail] Gah! [and now she glances down. yep, she forgot about that] Confound it! [she turns to hurriedly start rummaging in drawers. you might want to turn off the video feed, Mu] I'll be there shortly, in any case! Are you coming?
desertdaggers: (the shine of preparation)

Oh? [He tilts his head a little.] Maybe you could tell me a little more about her, at some point.

…we'll survive. The Archdemon isn't a threat anymore… and it'll take time, but the Goddess and the faerie said that she- the faerie, that is- would grow into a new Mana Tree. Which I presume means the world will be around when she finishes growing up. We'll figure it out.

Then I'll meet you outside the Mayor's House!

[and she proceeds to change into a blue dress. hopefully you turned the CAT off, Mu]
desertdaggers: (you don't say)

[personal profile] desertdaggers 2012-06-02 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
Of course.

Yeah. For now, what we need to do is figure out is whether we can continue living in the desert.
notsot8rri8le: (Whatever.)

[There goes that.]

Okaaaaaaaay. Well, anything you can tell me? Anything at all?
desertdaggers: (bugs mean poison)

Like a tail! I tend to wonder if he ties it up himself every morning.

[personal profile] desertdaggers 2012-06-03 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
We've been there for as long as I remember- so at least fifteen years, probably more. Mana was sustaining the oases, so it's hard to say whether they'll still be around in a year's time…

[If anyone's got an attitude problem, it's her. Not that she'll ever admit it though.]

Aren't you guys impressive, then. So we have one name and a possible accomplice. And what's your name?
desertdaggers: (and a clear blue sky)

There is practically no one who knows hair better.

[personal profile] desertdaggers 2012-06-04 12:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. It wouldn't be bad to get away from the Fortress, in any case, and I'm sure some of the others have been getting antsy, too.

[Mu probably reaches the Mayor's House before Sophie, considering she has some trouble with balance at first. but she seems to have solved that problem by the time she arrives. she hurries toward Mu]

Mu! Have you gone inside?
notsot8rri8le: (Not so smart are you?)

[voice; filtered]

[personal profile] notsot8rri8le 2012-06-05 08:27 am (UTC)(link)
Kinda lame, but I guess it's nice to meet you, Mu Human. [Well, that just sounds dumb. Maybe she'll drop the human bit from now on.] I'm Vriska Serket!
desertdaggers: (you don't say)

[personal profile] desertdaggers 2012-06-05 11:26 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, definitely!
