01 [ Video ] || Action Open to Sigyn House peeps

[ Having long perfected the art of stealth, Chane Laforet has been a silent presence on the network for a few days, now. She's gathered the information she could, done the proper exploring once the sun had set each night in this strange, grey world, and made sure to trust no one.
The communication device was unlike anything from her time or world, but was basic enough in design that she caught on after a few fumbles, that would have been more noticeable to the network had she not been a mute.

And so. A woman with short, black hair looks at the community with a determined, if slightly confused, expression, and holds up a set of FLASH CARDS, as if she's presenting a project to a bunch of colleagues. She holds up one note, which reads: ]

"I have misplaced the map I was given by the maid-woman."

[ Then shuffles it to the back, pulling out the next. ]

"Please, if anyone can reproduce something like this for me, I would appreciate it."

[ Her expression becomes slightly uncomfortable, as she's now second-guessing this entire decision. Nevertheless, she holds up another awkwardly floppy poster board. ]

"Can the people here see if some have no eyes? Some speak though I do not see their mouths."

[ And another one. This time she's holding it up in front of her face, so she doesn't have to feel as awkward... ]
"If I could be shown where to go to acquire the proper materials to arm myself,
that would be very helpful too."

[ Final note! ]

"Thank you for reading this message."

[ And she just slowly ... puts down all the notes, and sits, staring way too intensely at the video feed. She seems to be RIGHT outside the Sigyn House, so that should be recognizable enough, and is very under-dressed for the weather! ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[She knows where you're at. So she's been put into Sigyn as well.]

I'm inside. Maybe we can find a place where they sell them somewhere in the city. I have a map we can use.

[ After Sora has responded, her feed has seemingly shut off.

A few minutes later, Chane's feed is on again, and she holds up a note for her with a slightly softer expression than before. ]

"It seems I am being helped with the map.

Is there food inside?"

[ Cautious girl was too cautious to go inside! You just never know people's intentions, it's impossible to trust situations like this. She's thankful she can defend herself from this girl, should she decide to attack. ]

[Someone gave her a map already?]

Oh yes, there's food inside. I'll meet you at the front door.

[Turning off feed and heading downstairs.]

[ Someone just offered. Chane should...have taken this girl up on her offer, but she didn't want to two-time.

She sits outside on the nearest bench, watching her shoes as she swings her feet idly, to and fro. Though her eyes aren't anywhere, she's acutely aware of everything in her immediate surroundings, ready to cut down any threat. ]

[And Sora spots the girl a few minutes later, waving to her.]

Hey there!

[ Chane stands, eyes snapping up to attention, a few papers scattering in the breeze around her. She pays no mind to them blowing away, sizing Sora up for a moment before giving a stiff wave. ]

Hey, your papers are blowing away! Don't you need them?

[Pointing to flying papers.]

[ She looks over at them, then back at Sora... okay, so she doesn't seem very threatening. She quickly walks over to gather as many papers as she can -- not that she'd need the ones she already wrote over. But it seemed a bit rude to leave them for somebody else to clean up in the District, right?

She looks over at her a bit nervously, wondering if the girl was even aware that she couldn't talk. At this point, only food was on her mind. ]

[And Sora helps her out, grabbing the rest of the papers. It does seem odd that the girl can't speak...is she unable to?]

Um, do you know about the texting thing on here?

[Points to her bracelet.]

... [ She nods, taking that as a cue as she gathers the papers in hand that Sora would prefer for her to communicate in such a way. She tries to gather the stacks of paper under her arm, a couple falling out anyway, as she grabs the communication device and begins typing! ]

I-I can take the papers for you, miss!

[And she grabs the ones that fall out before smiling again.]

We should go back to the house; there's food there but I'm not sure what kind you would like.

[ ... Okay so she was pretty sweet. Her cheerful attitude almost reminded her a bit of Miria. Chane blushes a bit at her helpful actions, momentarily distracted by how shy she suddenly felt because...of how long it was taking her to figure out this typing thing and adjust quickly, before continuing her message Once she is done, she shows the device to Sora, and its text reads: ]

I will have anything. If you'd like, I can use this to speak with you. Or the papers.

[ Really, she was lucky that the people she immediately hung around didn't need sign language to communicate with her, though there were always frustrating barriers. Here, there was the added difficulty of being stuck in a new place. She was beginning to realize how impractical it was for her to expect anyone to read her. ]

Of course, that's fine by me.

[And she'll be leading the way back to Sigyn House.]

I'm Sora by the way. What's your name?

[ She follows, lagging behind a bit because she's walking so cautiously. She taps at the device a bit, then takes a few quick steps to catch up with Sora, holding it out in front of her as they walk. ]

My name is Chane. Please allow me to make the food.

[ A bit of a worried look as she pulls back to type more. ]

You don't have to do so much.

Oh, this is nothing. I'm happy to help out!

[She's worried about her? Aw, that's sweet of her to do but it's perfectly fine. It wouldn't be in her nature not to help out others.]

... [ She nods in understanding, telling herself she can at least help the woman. Maybe kindness like hers was rare to find in a place such as this?

She doesn't notice it herself, but she's following a bit more closely now, side by side. The look of confusion on Chane's face fades off into something more distantly accepting. There really was no way to stop someone like this from being helpful, and she knows that from experience.

She types a bit on the device, not getting any faster at the task yet. ]

Please let me help at least.

[ She like...shoves the device in Sora's face. ]

[She...really wants to help, doesn't she? Well, she couldn't just tell her no if she really wanted to do it. It wasn't fair after all so Sora nods in agreement.]

Oh, ok. I don't know what you can do right now but sure, you can help.

[She finally reaches at the Sigyn House and opens the door. Now she was getting hungry too.]

... ... ...

[ Chane waits...

for Sora to go in first. It is only polite, after all. It just appears as if she's staring at her, though. ]

[...welp this is weird. She didn't know Chane was waiting for her to go in and mistaken it for not being sure if the other girl was nervous.]

It's ok, you can come in too.

... [ Chane considers gesturing for Sora to go in first, but sees that it wouldn't be considered rude to go in. She's not really accustomed to thinking of Sigyn as her House yet, so it's more belonging to the other girl in her mind.

She quickly steps inside, looking around, then over her shoulder at Sora, fingers laced in front of her. ]

Oh, right. Kitchen is this way.

[Well, duh. Food first and so it's off to the kitchen to try and cook whatever they can get their hands on. Hope the kitchen doesn't blow up.]

[ She follows her so close she's practically stepping on her heels, and once they get to the kitchen, she looks a lot more...well, in her environment, but waits for Sora to show her where everything is!

Sorry she's so close behind you. If Sora has stopped abruptly, Chane has probably bumped into her. ]

[Knowing Sora, she did and now has fallen on the floor face first. It looks more comical than anything and anyone else in the kitchen can look, point and laugh.]

I'm ok!

!! [ Chane immediately begins helping her up, looking incredibly apologetic and eying her body to make sure she didn't cause her to bleed or bruise or bump! ]

Thanks. Sorry for stopping like that but nothing's broken or anything. I can take a fall pretty easy.

[She just laughs it off.]
