asgardeventide | ✿ Chapter 005. [Audio] (Day 77, a little forward dated)

[Why hello again Asgardians. There's a +1 audio post on your network, and guess who it is?]

Good morning, everyone.

... I'm sorry for occupying your time once again, but I have an announcement to make.

[Wait what.

Is that Hanako's voice just now? Because the stuttering you all were used to hear is... well, it's not there. Not completely there at least, with yet some hesitance in her speech.]

Before that, though, let me introduce myself once again to those who don't know me... my name is Hanako Ikezawa, and I live in the Sigyn House. I was given the power of Growth. That's it.

Moving on... Since I have a chessboard that was given to me from back home, I was thinking... that I might as well find some new partner to play chess with. [Someone who isn't always Hisao, as much fun as it is when she plays with him.]

Therefore, I'm asking if any of you have some knowledge of this game, and got some playing skills. You don't necessarily have to be great at it. I'd like to spend a day doing something I like with new people, that's all...

[A pause. Even with this seemingly good confidence boost, that doesn't mean she's become stronger from a day to another, enough to talk with hundreds of people over the networks. So, she needs a break.

Few minutes later...]

I will set the game up three days from now. You can find me in the Sigyn House's yard, from morning to late afternoon.

... This is all. Thank you for your time.

[The feed cuts before anything else could be said.

What happened to her...? You may wonder while listening to this post. Is this yet another confidence curse? The only way to find out is to ask her.]

((OOC: Soooooo Hanako's leveled up! And with that also some traits of her character improved a decent deal. Namely, she's toned down on the stuttering and shakyness, but still won't show herself on video- and her self-consciouness stays intact. Feel free to be damn confused if you're one of her friends or acquaintances!

Oh, and there will be a log when the three IC days pass. /o/))

Video game term? Support class...

[... He hasn't really played video games, but he'll just think of it another way.]

I guess that would make sense, but... growth, right? Some things can be both offensive and supportive. Like... growing a venus fly trap the size of a house.

... Uh? Growth would even be capable of that? [Honestly never thought of using her power that way.]

Growth is plant stuff, right? So I thought that it could do anything related to plants.

Well, I didn't think of anything offensive to use with them...

You could also use vines for something like whips. [Hypothetically...? Maybe?] Now that I think about it, it's probably one of the better powers...

Whips... uhm... I don't know, I don't like violence. [But that would be cool, wouldn't it?]

I would rather avoid it too [mostly because he wouldn't be good at it--he thinks], but you know... self-defense and stuff.

... You're right. That's good point. At least for self-defense.

Since there are... weird people at night.

[Thinking back when he met a weird "security guard".]

... Yeah.

Weird people...? You met someone?

Well... in my world, nighttime was dangerous. It was generally discouraged to be outside unless you were coming back from work or something.

But here, I met a security guard. He was kind of weird...

Weird, how? Was he one of the natives without faces?

He flipped me over before he even saw my face.

[Yup.]

... But I somehow landed back on my feet, so I though he was going around flipping people over for nothing.

Flipping... people over? Like you when flip tables? [She stares at her bracelet. Just what.]

... Why would you want to flip a table? That sounds kind of dangerous.

I never said I wanted to do that... I was just making a comparison.

... ... ...

I guess so. It was kind of disorienting, but landing on the ground on my feet was even more confusing.

Are you sure that was a native, and not one of the guests...?

Oh! Well, uh... he had a face.

[So he's not faceless--duh, Damien. Of course.]

... So I think he's a guest.

Oh... well I'm not surprised, then. Some guests here are... kind of quirky. Though chances are that I don't know this person.

He had eyes that glowed in the dark... kind of like a cat's. It was kind of scary.

...

Then I sure don't know him.

Mn... Well, it's okay. I didn't expect you to know him. He's not all too bad since he seemed kind of friendly after...

That's good, at least... What's the point of being a security guard if you scare people off?

I would understand if the person was trying to scare others away from a certain place, but we were outside.
