1 - 6 Mineral River

She blinks and shrugs "whatcha wanna talk about, Miss Reiko?"

Nacht purred lightly at the shoulder pat, and her tail moved to gently caress under Reiko's chin once, giving her a heartfelt smile before waving Routier off. "Bye~ I still haven't learned your name"

Well...I really want to make sure we're not on uneven footing you know...Oh, and Nacht, you're welcome to join us to talk about things if you want.

But anyways...

How do I say this without being...prude? Err...

So...how do you see yourself amongst our group of ...*quotey fingers* "ne'er-do-wells"? I know we've been trying to pull things together, but...

Nacht turned her head lightly, a little confused at the sudden topic, but she sits near Reiko's feet and listens for a moment to get oriented to the conversation.

She blinked and thought about it for a moment "well... they all seem to be normal citizenry to me,that just happened to be thrown into this 'game' "

Ahh, normal citizens, huh? Well I mean, you kinda...yunno, look like you don't think much of everyone else. I've been trying to stay on top of things so we know what we're doing... nn...


*She has this look on her face like that kinda makes her uncomfortable, mainly the thought of feeling like she's a person kinda grouped up with everyone else collectively into "citizenry" has her a bit unsettled.*

She blinks a few times "vhat do you mean? a Dame must alvays care about the citizenry she protects, of course I think vell of.. vell... almost everyone.... zat Ymir can go get axed for all I care" =3=

*Nacht looks up at Reiko, seeing her somewhat distressed face and stands up*

If it's any consolation, I think you're doing a pretty good job so far... *She hugs Reiko softly, looking at Valinae* You know, I don't  believe I've actually heard your name yet...

Ahh, well ... thanks Nacht.

What do you mean by Dame? Is that something you call yourself? I could've guessed that you kinda saw yourself above everyone else when you kinda took the helm from me last time.

I mean, I don't mind, but ...

*She's got an expression on her face that's very obviously...well, it doesn't hide the fact that it bothers her*

"Dame is equivalent to Sir, it's the title they give to knights" She explain plainly "and everyone is better at certain things, depending on what experiences they've had. Personally, I know from being a Knight, and also from helping out at the Church, that people need guidance, and order, to make a proper functioning camp, or Village. As such, since I believe I have the most insight in camp organization, I took charge of the meeting, so that things would progress more smoothly...." she finished explaing "... Though... does that bother you Miss Reiko?"


She then looked over to Nacht "I'm Valinea Schnedecke, nice to offically meet you"

Nacht let out a warm smile to Valinea. "Nacht Saphir, it's a pleasure!" She wasn't entirely sure on what had happened at this meeting, or whatever, but she was slowly piecing it together. She decided to hold her tongue for a moment longer, getting a bit more context.

I really don't want to be direct, but she isn't really leaving me with much choice... I mean, she is pretty right about a lot of things, but... she doesn't really know everything and she's from a different time period as well, so how would we work together if she doesn't really see me as anything else, really...Maybe, I'm being a bit superficial and all, though...


It's just...I was trying to put the town together...I thought some of my experience leading teams and people would work. Well, maybe it doesn't really mean much to you, but there's a few things I want to be able to do and I don't really want to feel like I'm being belittled or anything... I... sorry if it sounds kinda rude or anything. I really respect you and all, and I totally stand by your decisions, but I think at least you could put them through me, if it's not a hassle.

Then I can figure out what else needs to be done from there...

*She kinda leans back into Nacht* Pooffffff.

She took a good few moments to listen to her words ".... hmm, I see. so you wish to lead the town, Miss Reiko?" she asked, very directly, needing a straight answer.

I...

Well, I guess there isn't any other way to answer this... though I'm definitely uncomfortable about it...

Yeah. If... if it's no trouble to you.

she nodded "will you guide the citizenry, and protect their, still growing, way of life?" she asked, immediately afterwards

Y-yes! Of course! I swear by it, with everything I've got! I don't like to let people down, so it's the most I want to be able to do!

I don't know if you think I'm not capable of it, but I certainly want to hold my presence here.

Nacht frowned lightly at the frustrated Reiko, petting her head softly as she gently leaned in. Her sleek tail wrapped around Reiko's waist, almost like a hug. She gently cooed into Reiko's ear, "It's alright, hun.." She listened to the exchanges between the two for a moment before pitching in, louder, so they both could hear, and said "Am I allowed to have a voice, here? I have a small idea, but I'm not sure if it's dumb or won't work, so... Reiko, you want to be the leader, in a way, correct? And then Valinea says she believes that her experience would also work... Instead of one of you taking the lead, could you both moderate, filtering ideas through one another?"

She looked her straight in the eye, and ask one last question "Do you believe yourself strong willed enough, to make decisive decision in the improvement and preservation of the town? And then own up to any mistakes in your leadership along the way?" she asked this one with the most serious voice she has had so far, completely ignoring Nacht's statement.

I've already tasted disappointment once, so if it's my fault, I'll hold to it.
It'll at least help me if I have a chance to make up for what I couldn't do before I died... But yeah.

*She has a rather pained expression thinking about how she let down her best friend, still not knowing the fate of the incident*

And thanks for the idea Nacht, but that's part of the reason I brought it up...

She nodded and took out her Pole-Axe, while holding her left hand in half prayer over the center of her own chest. she then tapped Reiko's left shoulder with the weapon, the blade facing up towards the sky "Then I declare you Dame Reiko, Knight and Leader of our town" she said, tapping Reiko's left shoulder with the Axe in the same fashion. She then stabbed the butt of the pole into the ground and bowed slightly, with her right hand in a fist over her heart "I await to see where your leadership takes us, Dame Reiko"

*She bows back to her, respectfully, and extends her paw for a shake*

Thank you very much, it's my honor ...

I feel kinda special, like I've been knighted or something, but that's aside the point.

Err...
On a side note, Nacht, what's your story? That's one of the reasons I wanted to be able to talk to you, I thought you'd join us anyways so we know each other better.

Probably might not be a good idea to bring the gender thing up...

She did indeed shook her hand, before putting her Axe back on her back.

Nacht couldn't help but feel happy for Reiko, watching this small ceremony. Her tail unwrapped from Reiko as she was given her new title, and she'd taken a step back.

Her head turned lightly at the question. "My story? You mean how I.." She paused for a moment, not wanting to admit it to herself. "..wound up here..?"

*She sits down on a nearby rock* Well, if you want to start with that. Mainly a bit about you and who you are works.

Nacht nodded and sat in place, indian-style, thinking. "Well, if you want to know a bit about who I am..." Her ears perked happily, and you could see from her posture and body language many happy thoughts were rushing through her head. A genuine smile lingered over her face as she spoke. "I grew up really interested in science on Hanayo, the second planet in the Granball system." She giggled a bit before continuing. "I guess you could call me a pyromaniac, although I didn't do it for the explosions, per-say.. I usually ended up going above and beyond in the labs in class, blowing things up or making some super-awesome chemical reaction happen. No brothers, only a sister who I loved dearly. I wasn't the most... popular person in school, though." She sighed softly, her smile weakening.

So...you were really into the science thing? I like science, but personally, I was more of a programmer kid than anything. And I could understand not being tons of popular. It never really bothered me as long as I had some good friends to be with, anyways. People used to criticize me for being around a lot of boys while I was in my earlier years of school.

Not that being popular will really matter between us and everyone in town, as long as you're not Ymir! Ahaha~

*She lets out a hearty laugh for a few seconds then looks over warmly to her*

Nacht's smile strengthened again, and she nodded at Reiko. She reached with her hand and moved a lock of stray hair from in front of her eye, letting her sapphire eyes gaze to Reiko's blue. "The little popularity didn't bother me any, but..." She thought carefully on how to word her next few sentences. "I remember you saying something like we come from different universes, but bullying is far more than universal, I'm sure, so you probably know what it is. I was bullied a bit from about second grade onwards because I'm.. well, I /was/ gay, and a femboy." She laughed a bit, her glistening smile standing out against her fur. "I'm not really sure if I'm still gay or not, or how it all works. These boobs are throwing me way off!"

(Cutting off the old rp, for a new one XD)


Valinea jumps into the area, ready to gather, and waits up for her companions for this trip

Illium hops through the portal and lands next to Valinea with an axe in his hand, waiting now for Komali

Komali almost falls in the water again and sqeaks in alarm.
"What things?"

"hmmm, lets start with wood" she said, as she took out an axe and started gathering

Komali hisses in irritation as they target her but these things seem SO much weaker and suddenly this seems less of a fight and more like a game. She fires at Stone Stalker A.
