Rating: PG at the most



For the first time a in a while, a New Feather Party is taking place! Everyone has been working hard, making sure that everything is ready for the big day. The school cafeteria is decorated with streamers, some spring flowers and a hand-painted Welcome banner, placed right where everyone can see it. Most of the foods are simple party snacks: cakes, cookies, sandwiches and the like. However, Rin has hauled over a grill and is providing some cooked foods.

The most important part is the booths. The various organizations in Luceti have been invited to set up booths and tables in order to recruit new members and to inform the new feathers of their existence. There's even a general information booth, run by Marita Covarrubias, so New Feathers can ask any questions they have about Luceti. After all, when adjusting to a new place, information about your surroundings is the most important thing!

Near the end of the party, once it's a little darker out, there's even a small fireworks show. It's a nice way a party. After all, who doesn't like fireworks?

Of course. I would never forget any of the people I've met here.

[untrueheart]

[At least that can be something of a comfort.]

I am sure it sounds harder than it is, to remember.

[knightofratatosk]

Not really. All I have to do is think of all of the good times I had with them while they were here. It's pretty hard to forget things like that.

[untrueheart]

[Wouldn't he be surprised.

Then again, she had very few good times to remember.]

You really are very happy, aren't you.

[knightofratatosk]

[... well, that was slightly unexpected, and it catches him off guard.]

Huh? You really think so?

[untrueheart]

Even when you are thinking about people you have lost, you continue to be fond instead of despondent.

[knightofratatosk]

Well, yeah. I don't think any of them would want me to be sad whenever I thought about them.

[untrueheart]

What are you here to tell everyone about? [Changing the subject was the best idea.]

[knightofratatosk]

Oh, you mean my booth?

[Subject change accepted!]

It's for Brave Vesperia-- it's a guild that does things to help people around the village out.

[untrueheart]

How noble of you. What help do you offer?

[knightofratatosk]

Anything people want done, really. We've built buildings on request before, but we'll also do stuff like look for missing items.

[untrueheart]

[The village here is less developed and crowded than her home, that's for certain; one of the things that highlights the difference is the lack of buildings, other than the towering dorm-apartment setups.]

I have been looking for somewhere to dance.

[knightofratatosk]

Somewhere to dance...

[Give him a moment as he mulls this over.]

... what about the barracks? It's got a lot of empty space to move around in. It would be perfect for that kind of thing.

[untrueheart]

Does it have mirrors and music? [They are not essential but they sure help a lot, especially for someone who is getting out of practice.]

[knightofratatosk]

No, but we could put some in if you wanted. It wouldn't be that hard to hang mirrors up there.

[untrueheart]

[Given his lack of formal knowledge of dance, she has a feeling 'mirrors' would not produce from him what she expected and wanted.]

Frameless ones. It would need to be an entire wall.

[knightofratatosk]

... how do you hang a mirror that doesn't have a frame?

[untrueheart]

I don't know! The Academy practice rooms existed long before I arrived.

[knightofratatosk]

I'm sure we could find instructions in a book or something like that, or we could try asking around. But I don't see why we couldn't add some mirrors as long as we could find them in the store.

[untrueheart]

Well then, keep thinking about it. There are more students here than just me, after all.

[knightofratatosk]

There are? I haven't met anyone else here who has mentioned ballet... who are they?

[untrueheart]

A white-haired boy named Mytho and a clumsy little girl whose name is Duck. [Adjectives aside, she sounds fond of both of them.]

[knightofratatosk]

Oh, I know them! I talked to them both when they arrived here. I didn't know they danced ballet too, though. Neither of them mentioned it while we were talking.

[He's glad that they have other friends from their world here, at least.]

[untrueheart]

We attended the same academy together.

[knightofratatosk]

Academy? You mean like a school?
