[After her startling arrival and running about the place in a panic, Elraine had somehow managed to stumble upon her room...Where she then promptly passed out on her bed while completely ignoring the fact that her pants were covered in slush.
Sadly, this "dream" of hers doesn't seem to be evaporating anytime soon, and upon awakening, she was back into a slight panic while trying to remember the maid's instructions without being completely overwhelmed. So have a little audio post of Elle trying out her bracelet:]

I guess it's working? Testing...This is a little confusing... [Despite the exasperated tone to her voice, there's a mix of heavy fatigue and a strained quality that's from her trying to remain calm.]

Ummm, for everyone that can hear this, I'm Elraine Figarette. [There's a long pause but mostly because she's not sure if anyone can really hear this. That and she's anxious about how much she should say and how much would be too much.]

Okay, I'm going to name a few things and places...So, if any of them mean something to you, can you please contact me? However you do it...

...Nitan Empire, Naginzeria...Nagin, Beigar...Militaire, Maille...Troy.

[One more long pause, and she let's out a sigh.] I'm not too sure how this...is even happening, but I would appreciate more information about what's going on. Thank you.

Alright then. I'll meet you by the door. [At least then she could see the girl in person, and it would force her to calm herself even more about the situation.]

[saving-sound.livejournal.com]

Alright! I'll be there in a moment.

[And sure enough, a small girl comes wandering down to Elraine's floor, peering around for the right room.]

[Standing outside the door just as she said, Elle immediately spots Hibiki as she comes into view and gives a wave.]

Ah, Hibiki? Hello! [She's even cuter in person. But the realization is a little odd to find another child in this strange world.]

[saving-sound.livejournal.com]

[Oh, there she is! She'll have to tip her head up to chat now, but that's okay. She's pretty used to it.]

Figarette-san! Hi!

[holds-his-hand.livejournal.com]

[Don't worry, Hibiki, Elle's quick to fix the height difference by kneeling down to her level.]

Ah, it's okay to call me Elraine. Elle is fine too. [And then a thoughtful tilt of her head:] Say, have anyone actually met the Gods of their house yet? I was thinking it might be easier if we could get in contact with them to understand this place a little more.

[She knows it sounds silly though. Talking to Gods of all people...]

[saving-sound.livejournal.com]

E-Elle...-san?

[It's... weird not to use a honorific...]

I saw Sigyn-sama when I first came here. I didn't get to speak with her, though...

[holds-his-hand.livejournal.com]

That works too, I suppose. [Though she doesn't get all this "neechan"/"san" business with her name that she's been hearing.] There's no need to be formal, but use whatever you feel comfortable with, okay?

[And the next part is a little surprising.]

You did? What did she look like?

[saving-sound.livejournal.com]

Okay!

She looked very... kind.

[Yes, that is the best way to describe someone.]

[holds-his-hand.livejournal.com]

Hmm...I guess that makes sense for a God. [Oh Hibiki, why so cute?]

But what did she look like specifically? Do you remember her hair or eye color?

[saving-sound.livejournal.com]

Her hair was brown... But I didn't get close enough to see her eye color.

[holds-his-hand.livejournal.com]

Brown hair, okay. If you see her again, would you mind telling me? I think I'd like to talk to her in person.

[And now taking a glance around the halls:] Oh, right-- how long have you been here so far, Hibiki?

[saving-sound.livejournal.com]

[She nods.] Okay. I'll let you know!

[She has to think about the second question.] I came here when most of the others first did... So that would be... ummm...

C-close to a week? Maybe?

[holds-his-hand.livejournal.com]

A week, hm? [Well, it didn't seem like there would be a chance to be sent home soon from the beginning.]

You haven't been lonely, have you? Have you made some friends here?

[saving-sound.livejournal.com]

Yes! People here were really nice when I put up my first message, and a few offered to be my friends almost right away!

[CAN YOU SEE THE HAPPINESS SPARKLES because they are totally happening right now.]
