Orb Post | 1 | Arrival

[sarcasticbite]

[A young girl of around the age of sixteen appears and she seems pretty irritated.]

First, I wake up in an unknown place with an old man smiling down creepily at me beside my bed and in clothes that I swear I’ve never owned before.

[She mimics the old man, deepening her voice]

“Welcome Nikki, you must have questions.”

No, of course not. I just love being kidnapped, changed of my clothes without my consent, and being told that I have the responsibility to fulfill some sort of role as a Mage. [Sarcasm is just pouring from every word.]

For some reason, of all the questions he’s willing to answer, he won’t tell me how to control the fire coming out of nowhere.

[She moves the orb to the side and what’s seen is the bed behind her on fire]

Someone might want to come and douse it out.

I wonder if they could set up some sort of magical sprinkler system if something like this could happen...

[sarcasticbite]

Probably a job for a Water Mage or something. We got any here?

[shiromadoushi]

I'm not sure... I know there's a White Mage... One that actually knows what he'd doing, anyway. [[a bit of a sheepish laugh]]

[sarcasticbite]

What are you again?

[shiromadoushi]

Aaa--- I think I'm supposed to be a White Mage myself... I have the robes for it! I just haven't really figured out how it all works...

[[It's actually far more complicated than that, but he's not about to go into that now]]

[sarcasticbite]

Do you know what you're doing most of the time?

[shiromadoushi]

Not really.... It sort of seems to just cast itself, really...

[sarcasticbite]

[She's resisting the urge to facepalm]

Great. Another person who doesn't know how these powers work.

[shiromadoushi]

They don't come with any sort of training...

[[oh hey, he's finally reached the castle. And he's not even out of breath. Odd.]]

[sarcasticbite]

[She's decided that he's harmless and jabbing at him won't do any good, especially since he's friendly. He doesn't react like the others.]

You know, maybe you and I should train and then tell each other how they work or something. Figure it out and share the intel.

[shiromadoushi]

[[Friendly is one of Bakura's more defining characteristics. Right next to Nerdy]]

If they all work the same way, sure!

[sarcasticbite]

Great. Well, I'll see you later, um...

Yeah, what's your name again?

[shiromadoushi]

Bakura. Bakura Ryou. And I should be there pretty soon, I hope! Just have to find a bucket... Maybe a pot..
