[Her hands hold out the beer toward her, before leaning slightly forward, elbows resting on her knees.]
It- wasn't pleasant.
[Thinking that everyone had left, that it was only those people she had found... There had been no sight nor sound of anyone else. They had just vanished.]
[That does earn an amused snort. The number of years between them is quite large as well, but, it's not like certain technologies haven't been thought about in Alice's time.]
Guess it is a bit more obvious when the other person doesn't even know about electricity, phones, or other planets. There might be some cultural references that go over my head, but I get the gist of most things.
[and there's a big difference between accepting that space travel between worlds is real and accepting that cellphones are real for someone from 800 years or so in the past]
Yeah, exactly. I mean, history was never my best subject to start of with, but bridging that gap? Not easy. Oh, well. At least I didn't want to punch him?
[Taking a swig of her beer again, Carolina smiles slightly at that mental image. Not exactly the type of guy that gets her interest, but the world does need more good guys.]
Were all of you actually on the same island then? I saw a fire, and had to work out how to get over.
Me, neither. Which sucks 'cause I love swimming. And sunbathing. Can't do much of either one here. I guess we could always go to the hot springs?
[she would be awful at fishing. Jane's a city girl through and through. the entire population of Hadriel could fit into the apartment complex she used to live in]

action
Date: 2018-09-13 01:55 am (UTC)No it was not. What was the point of the whole thing, anyway?
[her people seemed nice enough, but not enough that she's going to keep tabs on them now]

Date: 2018-09-14 12:31 am (UTC)[This place does seem to like to do that. Twist and turn, make them happy, sad, angry...]
action
Date: 2018-09-14 12:47 am (UTC)[it does. she really doesn't like the fake gods for that. she's always hated feeling out of control]

Date: 2018-09-14 10:35 pm (UTC)I hope the knight guy didn't just spend all day talking about knightly things...
action
Date: 2018-09-15 02:05 am (UTC)Nah, he seemed nice enough. Just, it's hard to relate to someone who's like from so long ago.

Date: 2018-09-16 02:50 pm (UTC)[Her voice, surprisingly, dipping down to a soft tease.]
action
Date: 2018-09-16 07:26 pm (UTC)Probably. That's what I need people like you for.
action
Date: 2018-09-17 03:27 am (UTC)[Not that she's in a pissing contest.
Although she might have a competitive streak to her...]
action
Date: 2018-09-17 03:58 pm (UTC)I'm sure it would. After all, yours is high-tech space age armor. His was a step above RenFaire armor.

action
Date: 2018-09-17 07:29 pm (UTC)Yeah, so that was lucky. I didn't have to wrangle a rowboat by myself. That would suck, having to cross over.
action
Date: 2018-09-18 12:42 am (UTC)[Relatively speaking anyway. It had given her a work out, and she's kept up her training here.]
Although I still worked up a bit of a sweat.
action
Date: 2018-09-18 12:54 am (UTC)[she jogs. and hates it. every second of it]
Sounds like a good workout at least.
action
Date: 2018-09-18 01:52 am (UTC)[Or so Carolina hopes... Otherwise, foot in mouth!]
action
Date: 2018-09-18 02:13 am (UTC)[that would require effort]
action
Date: 2018-09-18 03:01 am (UTC)[Pausing as she tried to keep the smile off her lips.]
It wouldn't have helped you any.
action
Date: 2018-09-18 05:33 pm (UTC)[she takes a swig of the beer]

Date: 2018-09-19 02:06 am (UTC)[Although she did pick up a new hobby, maybe? Fishing had been... fun.]
