[Ril's inquisitive face appears, bobbing a little as she adjusts the bracelet to prop and balance as she sits.  She's got the hang of finding things and mostly navigating, but she doesn't much look like she's slept any at all.]

I was walking, I was, since walking is better than being still and I was minding my own when straight in front of me.  A tree in my face, it was.  I suppose I ought to look where I'm headed a bit more careful-like, but it wasn't as if I'd said.  "Hello, I'd like myself a tree to come walloping in from nowhere, please!"

[She clears her throat and rubs at her nose a little.  Running into trees is worse than running into folk by ages.]

What do you call these fruits, then?  [She's carefully patting the orange colored apple that she's taken from the Chance tree.]  Lovely shade of orange.  I do assume they're edible and not just pickable.  But, do they taste good?  Because I'll be tasting it all day, I will, and you don't just go around eating alien fruit when it might--

Well.  I do suppose I haven't seen any bodies.  Still, new here, I thought I'd check.

Between you and me, I'm skipping any fruit that sounds suspicious. "Choose wisely"? Don't mind if I do.

[sheloves]

It's a firm sort of fruit. Smells good, too. I haven't the tools, though for further analysis. I suppose I'll have to see who's eaten one of these.

[trustexercises]

From what I've seen? Just look for dropped fruit on the ground. It's apparently a bit of a shock.

Can't imagine how you've worked it out such that brightly-coloured, enticingly-labeled fruit is anything other than remarkably suspicious, new or not.

I'd say curious, rather, and in need of testing. I haven't just jammed it in my mouth, have I?

[could_be_dangerous]

Things here tend to be curious. Hardly changes the fact that you're remarkably quick to trust the stewards of a world to which you've recently been kidnapped. Not very clever.

Prob'ly apples. Bunch'f them been growing 'round. Don't eat th'red ones. Not unless you wanna see the future. Gods're playin a damned game again, or thanking us.

Hard t'say.

[Sheeee kinda sounds drunk.]

Audio back, then

[sheloves]

Apples, are they? Good a name as any. The one I've got is orange, like when a storm's coming in. [She sounds a bit surprised, then.] I take it you've tried the red, then, and found it lacking. Do you need any assistance?

[Because it's impolite not to offer aid to one's inebriated acquaintances.]

[samantha_grey]

Long's you can eat th'skin yep, probly apples. The apple tasted fine, but they've added something else to 'em. Ate't and got a vision didn't like.

Not much ya can really do about it, though. It's as good as done already.

[voice]

[needsnoheadsman]

They're apples, and they do taste good. I've not seen any bodies around yet, so I can assure you, they're safe.

[Also, he has his wolf back, so he's in a good mood.]

[voice]

[sheloves]

We've blue ones that look a bit similar back where I'm from. They're called madrit fruit but they're a bit purple blue and have soft flesh. Very tasty, our madrit fruit. This one [she turns the apple over before tapping it] is much more firm. Have you had the orange colored fruit, then? I am attempting to be informed since the tree was, as they say, labeled.

[And she was hungry, so, there was that as well.]

[voice]

[needsnoheadsman]

Not yet--for some reason I've only been able to eat one so far, I've not been able to pick more.

[verybigpheasants]

Oh, they taste perfectly fine so far. As sorcerous fruit goes, I've certainly heard about worse things happening.

[sheloves]

Lovely, then, sir. Just lovely! Do you know what sort of effect this one has then? I aim to do as the writing says, after all. At this point, since I've no food on me and didn't bother to prepare food for my walkabout, I may eat it.

[verybigpheasants]

I've only picked up one of the red, myself. Wouldn't call it an experience that made any sense, but I came out of it unharmed. I like to encourage a touch of risk-taking when it comes to these things, of course, milady.

[Hello there, fellow Sigyn housemate and healer! (I think they share a bathroom?)]

They're called apples. They should be safe. [Relatively.]

[sheloves]

[(So they do! Brilliant!)]

Apples, eh? [She takes a moment to sound it out and laughs] So far, I've only really seen orange ones. Back on my homeworld we have madrit fruit growing in Hydroponics. They look a bit like this, actually, only a bit more blue-purple. They're very refreshing.

[jivitadana]

[Awesome! I like that they have the same power. Sweet deal.]

Being here makes you miss home, I would think.

[For some people, perhaps.]

[comeonthensexy]

It's probably harmless. In the physical sense.

[sheloves]

I shouldn't be surprised that there are the kind that're are less than pleasant in other ways. I suppose that's the thing, then, the 'choose wisely' bit. [She grinned, if it was a bit wearily. No matter how bad things got or how much she missed Eth, she'd still have a spark of humor.] I suppose living's wasted if you don't jump into the wind while you can.

[Video]

[comeonthensexy]

Exactly.

So I guess it all depends how curious you are.

[Video]

[5thchild]

They are apples. Each color will offer you something different once you eat the fruit.

It's not rare for this sort of thing happen in Asgard, though it's not always apples. Flowers, candies - it has happened before.

[Video]

[sheloves]

Truly? I've never seen the like. I suppose having gods actually present in one's world would be, pardon the turn of phrase, ripe for such opportunities.

[sexyoldgirl]

[It's the woman the TARDIS is already attached to.]

Things tend to do that here. Pop up out of nowhere.

They're rarely poisoned.

[sheloves]

Hullo, again. [It's a pleasant surprise, seeing a familiar face. Reassuring in its own right.]

I can most definitely say the tree I walked into popped up unexpectedly. It's good to know that it's edible fruit. There's nothing quite like picking something, only to discover that its just supposed to be pretty and that's it.
