Twenty-Seventh Flame-[Action]

[gogglesyndrome]

[Taichi's been made well-aware of the people that have come into the village, but he's not too concerned. He hasn't seen any duplicates of himself, nor has he seen any of his friends, so why worry, right?

Exactly. So instead he's decided the best course of action is to make a snowfort and he's currently hiding inside of it with a huge pile of snowballs, waiting to find innocent people to throw them at. Ridiculous child is ridiculous. Never mind the fact the top of his bird nest hair is probably sticking out.

So, do you get hit? Or do you bust him before he can throw one?]

There's no mayor. Unless he's unseen, too.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

Unseen? What are you talking about?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

[Man, usually we're asking Raine questions, not the other way around.] It's hard to explain, but nobody really knows what the guys who run the village look like.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

But... how is the village taken care of, then? Aren't there adults here?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

[You know...we're just gonna drag Raine inside before she freezes and dies.] No there are, but there are others too. But a lot of the adults take care of the different shops and school and stuff.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

[That's a good idea. Since Raine is too busy... thinking too much. She glances around the shop as they enter] So... they work, right? And - there must be commerce, and trade.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

[Ah, some things never change. Taichi's just dragging her around the store now looking for warm clothes.] I don't know about that, but yeah, they work.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

And... if there's a town here, it has to have -- history in it, right?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think so. The library probably has some books on it.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

I wonder if there are any artifacts... that would be very interesting to study! ... After I learn more about how things are here. I'm afraid I still don't... understand some of it. [She looks at some of the coats.]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

You study a lot, don't you?

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

I try to. There are just so many things to discover that way.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

You and my friend Izzy have that same view.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

It's nice to know that other people think that way.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

You two would have bonded or something.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

Oh... he isn't here?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

No, he used to be, but then he got sent home again.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

... I'm sorry. You must miss him.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Yeah...but it's okay, whenever we get to go home, we'll see him again.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

Is there something we have to ... find? Maybe a ... gate, or a portal, or ... [She stops speaking suddenly]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

...or?

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

I-it's nothing. I shouldn't be... thinking of things like that when I still know so little about it.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

...now you've lost me.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

Don't worry about it! .. Um. [Looking at coats now, lets just pull one out at random. It's much too big] How's this one?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

No way, it looks like a tent or something.
