[At first Bianca wasn't sure if she was using the bracelet correctly. She was sure she followed the instructions but nothing is happening. After staring at it intensely for a couple of seconds, she figured it probably was working. If not, ...oh well]

Um...now that everything is over, I was hoping that maybe we can use something to make everyone happy! So I thought that we can play a game! I want to learn more about other people's worlds and in return, you get to know about mine!

One person says a word and the next person must say another word but the first letter must begin with whatever the last letter was! For example, if person one says "Psychic" the next person must say something that begins with the letter C. It could be anything ranging from Cat or Color or...something!

So I'll start off by saying Grass! Now you go!

[Pause] Um...if it's not too much trouble, I want to ask if there's anyone here who knows how to use a weapon...

How did you get to talk to them? I'm not sure how so I'm still figuring that out!

Then should we ask? I don't know anyone here who does but that's what makes it fun right?

It was a while back now - there was this curse that made everyone burst into song all the time. I talked to Freyr a little after it wore off, when he announced to everyone that the gods had made it happen. And Thor popped up to compliment me and Vyse on our singing! [She beams at this.] I think it's pretty hard to get hold of them unless they want to be contacted, though.

Right! It would be fun to make new friends and get a plane out of it! [Speaking of which...] Oh! I'm Aika! I can't believe I didn't tell you that yet.

Hm...it looks like I might have to be patient and wait until one of them pops up! Or maybe I could just sing something right now and hopefully they'll get a chance to listen to me! Although, I never had any singing lessons...

Haha, it's okay! I should have introduced myself sooner so...it's nice to meet you, Akia! I'm Bianca!

You could try! Although, I think they've got a lot on their plate at the moment, with all that darkness and stuff.

Nice to meet you too, Bianca!

We can always talk to them after everything is over? Hopefully we don't bother them during that time!

Yeah, I'm sure you'll be able to talk to them soon! In the meantime, though, I've been here a while, if you've any questions about this place.

Hm...let's see...

How long have you been here? I just want to know if I should be prepared if anything like what happened a while ago is common here!

I'm not sure exactly, but it's been a few months now. I haven't seen anything that bad before, but I'd be prepared for it to happen again.

Hm...

Have you used a weapon before? If you did, can you tell me how you started out because I'm not even sure what's the first thing to do! I heard that jogging or building your muscle helps but...what do you do after that?

[She reaches down and unhooks her boomerang from her belt, holding it up to the video feed.] This is my weapon! It's quite different to the sort of thing that most people here use, though. There's lots of people who use swords, and I think I remember a couple of people offering beginners lessons on the network.

Ah, how do you use that?! [her eyes widen] It's so huge, how...how can you fight with it?

I'm starting to notice that or at least some kind of sharp object? And maybe a couple of long objects to...

You throw it at the enemy, and it comes back to you afterwards! There's a trick to it, but I'm not sure I can explain it. It took years for me to be able to use it properly, and I had to teach myself.

Hmm, there's an arena in Thor District, if you wanted to check that out? I'm sure they'd help you find which weapon is best for you!

That's really cool! One day, I got to find a chance to use it and ,when I do, I got to show it to my friends too! I'm sure they'll want to give it a try!

Hm...what goes on in that arena? Is it like a tournament thing? If so...I guess I would look at it. Hopefully, they won't mind me asking for some help!

That would be awesome!

I think so? I've never been over there myself, but I know they'll welcome newcomers. There's a couple of people that have advertised beginners combat training on the network, too, and they seemed nice enough, although I haven't looked into it myself.

Huh, really?

...When did I miss that? It looks like I need to pay attention here if I want to learn how to fight! Next time, I'll be sure to make my post filled with ads so everyone can see it!

They can't miss it that way!

I'm sure if you asked in your post, you'll get loads of people wanting to train you! I'm sorry I can't, but I've never been much good with teaching others.

That's okay, I'm just glad you're willing to show me your weapon!

Although, would it be okay if I try and use it one day? Just to see how it works?

Sure, that'd be fine! I live in Freya, so whenever you like, really.

Hm...

Oh, how about tomorrow? I'm pretty sure I have nothing to do so...why not?

[[ooc: handwave, action, whatever goes?]

Okay, that sounds great!

[Happy to do action here or go to a log, whatever you want.]

All right, so I'll see you then!

[With that, when it was tomorrow, the first thing that Bianca did was go straight to the Freya district! She just couldn't pass up the chance to throw a giant boomerang around!

However, there was just one slliigghhtt problem. Bianca was still new to Asgard and as such, of course she would get lost. Oops. Don't have a Bianca running around in the Thor district with no idea where she is]

[Aika had got out her boomerang that afternoon and sat at the dining table in the welcome hall, polishing it. It had made Vyse incredulous, and he'd laughed at her the entire time, but it wasn't often that she got to show it off; most people dismissed it as a ridiculous weapon, despite the damage she had proved time and again that it could cause.

When Bianca didn't turn up straight away, she wondered if she'd got lost, or if she'd found something else to do instead. She decided to go out to the garden and practise with the boomerang herself; she hadn't really had to do any fighting in a while, and she worried about getting rusty.]

[After a couple of minutes of trying to figure out where she was suppose to go, she was lucky that she was near the gardens when she saw Akia practicing with her boomerang. Hooray, she thought to herself, before walking straight up to her]

Akia? Is that you? Because if you are, you better watch out, Bianca is coming your way!

[Aika turns as she hears Bianca's voice, grinning.]

Hey Bianca! I got worried you weren't coming.

Haha, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be late! I got lost but I'm glad I got a chance to see you! I got lucky!

[With that, Bianca took a quick look at her and the boomerang.]

Wow, it's certainly a lot bigger in person compared to the video! I still don't know how you're able to swing it around like that!
