001 - Jan. 27 - evening - video

[The communicator turns on to reveal the face of a young woman, one who's clearly irritated with the device.  One of the most noticeable things about her would be her bright red hair.]  Okay, I think it's working.  [Clearing her throat, she continues.]

This is certainly a rather jarring transition.  One minute, I'm trying to make up for three months of training in five days, and the next, I'm thrown into this other world.  It doesn't seem like I can use my exquip magic either, which doesn't help matters, and I'll have to get used to being a weapon rather than using one.  It's nice to have access to free food, though.  [As soon as she finds a bakery, she'll be set.  ...Also, the bakery will quickly run out of cake.]

At any rate, I suppose introductions are in order.  I'm Erza Scarlet, a mage of the Fairy Tail guild.  ...Though I suppose that might not mean much to many of you, I will still be looking forward to helping out however I can.

[ The voice, the quality of speech and ... the appearance - everything temporarily stuns Lucy into silence. She momentarily pauses, unsure of how to carry herself. Though, a large fraction of herself felt something akin to concern and worry, she contradictorily couldn't deny the bulk of her thoughts that were led astray by more jovial emotions. But, before she allows herself anymore time for reflection, she shifts the communicator in her hands, ready to respond. ]

Erza. [ Eloquence was lost by her bewilderment amongst other emotions. ] It's not a dream. [ Because she's experienced this often in those. ] You're here...! [ There's a pause as she tries to straighten her thoughts and priorities out. ]

As you could have probably guessed, Natsu's here too.

Lucy? [Any irritation that she was having with the communicator fades away at the sight of her friend. She's not sure how she feels about Lucy participating in this war, but then again, they've been through worse before and made it out okay.] ... It's good to see you're okay.

Oh, he is? [Once she saw that Lucy, she thought that might be the case - the two of them are virtually inseparable, after all. Still, it's nice to hear that.] That's good - if we all work together, I'm sure we'll be out of here in no time.

[ Seeing the other's expression lighten causes her own to follow suit. A small smile tugs at the corner of her lips, contradictorily playing against much of her more innate concerns. ] Erza! [ She repeats again, slightly more ardently. ]

Mm! Of course! ... I'm glad you are as well. [ Which, with Erza's words made entire sense to her. It was just a matter of time and ... perhaps some struggles in between. But... wait! ] But, ... what's this about training?

[heretolookhot]

Fairy Tail guild. Sounds super intimidating.

[redhairedknight]

The name wasn't chosen to be intimidating - it reflects the adventurous spirit of our guild. [Erza's... not great with sarcasm.]

[heretolookhot]

And that's what you came up with?

[dragneel]

Whaaat? You're a weapon? That ain't fair! How'd you get to be the lucky one, Erza!

[dragneel]

....Erza?

done!

[dragneel]

ERZA!! YO! S'BEEN A WHILE!

[Another mage...

She tilts her head curiously.]

Three months of training in five days? [How is that even possible?]

[ video ]

[redhairedknight]

Yes - it will certainly be difficult, but we'll go without sleep if we have to! [Though thankfully, they found an alternative shortly after Erza was brought here - otherwise, that idea probably wouldn't have ended well.]

Welcome to Death City, Miss Scarlet. Roy Mustang, head of Death City's Office for General Security and Commander of the Watch. It's a pleasure to meet you.

[redhairedknight]

A pleasure to meet you as well. What sort of responsibilities does this Watch have?

'Trying to make up for three months of training in five days.'


[What are you, a braggart or a monster?]

[video]

[redhairedknight]

[...She's probably closer to being a monster, out of those two options.] Yes. It's not the ideal situation, but it's all we can do at this point.

[poisonwords]

What the hell is "exquip magic"?

[voice]

[redhairedknight]

It lets me summon weapons or armour wherever I am - except for here, apparently.

[Video]

[pawned]

Three months of training in five days. How exactly is this done?

[Video]

[redhairedknight]

Constant training, and pushing ourselves to our very limits! We'll go without sleep if we have to! [... She's a bit too into this.]

Welcome to Death City! Unfortunately, it seems that whatever process draws us to this world prevents us from using any special powers we might have. I've had to take up a pretty rigorous exercise routine to stay in shape.

[Video]

[redhairedknight]

Really? [Erza sighs.] That's unfortunate. It would certainly be much easier to end this war if we had access to our normal abilities. Still, I'll just have to adapt, I suppose.

[sineamore]

Exquip magic? [Blinking. That's a type of magic he's never heard of, even from the most bizarre video games he's played.]

[video]

[redhairedknight]

Yes. It lets me summon weapons, armour, and clothing wherever I am - except for here, apparently.

[Video]

[socialbutterfly]

I like the free food as well.

[Video]

[redhairedknight]

Yes, about that - do you know where a bakery or a pastry shop is in this city?
