2 [Video]

[somethingspecial]

I realize that this place is a far cry from normal, but I do have a question concerning the... natives and what makes them happy.

[Rachel, by the video, seems to be somewhere within the Odin district. She has an armful of books and her bracelet is turned on, precariously centered on her face as she tries to adjust everything -- but as her arm moves, it seems to show a collective of grey people staring at her.]

I was just walking home and a few of them started to follow me and I'm unsure on whether or not they want me to come with them or take me to their leader or -- well, it isn't as if any of them speak and -- this is so rude, they can probably hear me -- oh, no --

[And as Rachel turns, to face her followers, the books tip out of her arms to land on the ground. She curses softly to herself before she steps forward, to rescue a sheaf of sheet music from a puddle. And as she's about to proclaim that she doesn't have the money to replace it, one of the natives stoops to pick up one of her books -- and seems to point at the sheet music that she's borrowed from the library. She takes it gingerly before looking at it -- and she looks up at the taller being with a tentative smile.]

Do you like music -- ? Is that what you want to keep hear --

[And the feed shuts off as she hurries to pick up the rest of her things.]

Perfect, actually!

[All things considered -- and she offers Quinn a bright smile, to reassure her, before she refocuses her attention on the grey people.]

They seem to be mostly harmless, actually. I think they just want someone to talk to them.

Or sing, which isn't really surprising.

[ And if you do she wouldn't mind if the video stayed on to listen ]

What made them start following you?

[somethingspecial]

I believe it was my singing. I was on my way back from the library when I noticed they were following me.

[formercheerio]

That's... nice, I guess. [ And if the emotion and colour thing is right, and given Rachel's singing... maybe it will be a bit brighter too ] You should carry on, see what happens.

[somethingspecial]

I don't want them to all follow me back to the Freyr house -- I doubt I have room for an entire audience in my little room.

[But she seems to consider it, as she looks back at them.]

You should sing with me.

[formercheerio]

You could just stay where you are.

[ You don't need to Pied Piper ]

Wait, what?
