† nike lemercier | n/a

OPEN

WHO: Nike Lemercier and open to everyone!
WHERE: Heropa & De Chima; after the 10th until the end of the month.
WHAT: Nike is exploring the two cities she'll be spending the majority time in, trying to figure everything out regarding her memories, singing on top of the ocean, or returning pictures of forgotten (male) friends too.
WARNINGS: Nothing to report.

☂ CHOICE ONE - DE CHIMA - PHASE ONE OF EVENT

[The city was frigid, and it wasn't due to the weather neither. After having been shown to her assigned home, Nike immediately was able to determine the nature of the city -- it was distant, anxious, and diligent. And to make matters worse, she has been noticing the strange phenomena with random individuals appearing out of no where, many dressed similar to her way of life or completely different.

Nike will attempt to speak to those whose fashion she recognized, but will be largely ignored. She'll try to reach out to them as a way to catch their attention or even run in front of them only to find they'll walk right through her which will earn a surprise yelp from her.]

What's going on!? Why are they...? [She was a little unsettled by the thought of a wandering and restless spirit roaming around. It's even worse when she can't sense their wish or desire or reason for being there to begin with. Nike will look somber at those thoughts.] ...am I the only one who can see them or...? Hey! Can you see them too? Those people? The ones that don't notice you when you speak to them...?

☂ CHOICE TWO - ANY CITY - RETURNING PICTURES OF PAST FRIENDS

[Returning to a world that was completely different than the one she had memories of was difficult to fully adapt. It didn't become easier when she was expected to have memories of people and events of the time she was present. She was reminded of that simple fact every day by the pictures adorning her walls. All of them were suppose to be precious, but all she felt was guilt in possessing them. Mainly those of boys. She knew Livi wouldn't approve of them, not in the slightest.

That's the reason behind her impromptu visit to the homes of those she gather were her friends. It was easy enough to gain the information after asking room mates and those she grew to trust. So whoever were her friends or even had met her in the previous six months, will have an ex-bumpkin princesses placing an envelop with the intended individual's name on it, filled with pictures of them or with her or in a group, and a note that simply said "Sorry".

Now if she's successful in her endeavors is another story as anything could happen: the door can open, she can be attacked by dogs, a security guard will grow suspicious of her and pick a fight, and whatever else her bad luck decides to bestow on her as a parting gift from her precocious future husband.]

☂ CHOICE THREE - HEROPA - TRAINING NEW POWERS AND ATTEMPTS TO UNLEASH OLD ONES

[It was difficult to synchronize to her new surroundings, no matter the amount of times she attempts to learn to do so on her own. The item Kanaya allowed her to borrowed was very useful. It helped her sleep and have a moment of some peace with her surroundings whispering to her senses while it didn't get in the way of her powers.

The winds were more than willing to obey her as long as she summons them with a purpose in both Heropa and De Chima. The rain was an issue, mainly due to the fact that she can't connect to neither one of the cities enough to be able to. The people's ideology are different from her own. She can't understand them at all. It was definitely a problem, but there was another way to use her powers -- all she needs is a vast amount of water.

Heropa's beaches was the perfect spot for her training. At least, she thought so. Despite the fact it was technically still winter, the weather felt warm enough for her to soak her feet at the beach's shore as she decides to sing the following song as loud as her amplified voice will allow her, covering almost two blocks of her surroundings will be able to notice her song. The more into the song she gets, the more the surroundings will begin to change with rain clouds appearing out of Nike's body and expanding rapidly towards the sky, covering some of the beach; however not a single drop of rain will fall. Nike will continue to sing, regardless of her inability to make it rain, as she was attempting to connect with the sky above her.

Something about it felt inviting, so without another thought she'll begin to head deeper into the ocean with slightly agitated currents, fully dressed except for her bare feet. If someone pays close enough attention, they'll notice she is beginning to show signs of some levitation, but it isn't enough to keep her feet entirely off the water though.]

☂ CHOICE FOUR - ANYWHERE - WILDCARD! PM or PP me at floralstone for a personalize prompt. OR JUST WRITE WHATEVER IDEA UP; I'LL GO WITH THE FLOW.

[ Krul typically doesn't sit around the house she shares with Yuu all day and not just because she has an apparent job here at the blood bank in which she attends almost daily. When one is a vampire, it's easy to become bored with every single thing around you and thus, she wanders usually, here and there, wherever the wind may take her, attempting to drown out thoughts that quietly gnaw on the very corners of her mind in private.

So, to come back to this place called home around here and find some girl slipping something into the mail slot, well, that certainly seems to pique Krul's interest.

She stands behind Nike a little ways back, strands of pink blowing around her gently as a breeze whisks by with crimson eyes slowly blinking as she carefully watches her. She doesn't strike her as a mail person, so... what could she be doing here is the question for the moment. ]

Last I checked, you don't live here.

[ Even as she says the words, she wears a smile on her lips. ]

[Nike will freeze upon overhearing someone speaking to her. She had noticed another presence, but with the way her powers are directly connected to her surroundings her abilities felt more sensitive than usual; even with the dampner in her wrist. Her attention will turn towards the girl with pink hair and darker shade of red in her eyes. She was so tiny! Nike couldn't help smile back upon noticing her instead of feeling embarrassed or shock over having been caught putting the letter in the mail slot. Then again, she hasn't released the hounds on her.....

Whatever the case, she hasn't given her a reason to feel anything other than intrigue as her colorings were unusual but very fitting and beautiful. It made her curious to learn more about her.]

You're right. I don't live here. I was just returning something that doesn't belong to me. Do you know Yuu?

[She's only asking because she understands the roommate "system" of this world. It made her curious to know if she was his friend. Maybe she can ask for advice.]

[ Yuu? Why, yes, she does know him. Imagine that. It's of no surprise to her that the boy has made himself "friends" here, if that's what this girl is but for them to come around like this, well, that's not something Krul is used to and so she simply continues to stare at the girl-- size her up if you will with that smile still on her lips. ]

That entirely depends on what you want him for.

[ Because she's not about to let anyone inflict any sort of harm onto her seraph, even though this girl doesn't strike her as the type to have come looking to start something physical with the boy. But, given how appearances can be deceiving (look at herself for example), Krul doesn't let her guard down and simply brushes a few strands of pink hair out of her face. ]

Maybe I can help you with something instead.

[Taking the letter out from the mail, Nike will show Krul the item with his name in question. Opening the contents, she'll show the younger girl a picture of the two at a formal gala with Yuu dressed up in a suit while Nike is wearing a white dress with long sleeves and her hair tied with a loose twin braid.]

I was thinking of returning these pictures I had of him. They're of our time together...before I lost my memories of it.

[Her gaze will show signs of remorse even if the weak smile on her lips will remain. She was forcing herself to look positive as she didn't want to drag the other girl's feelings down. Not when she doesn't seem to have been her friend before losing her memories. It didn't feel like they were.]

...I don't feel right keeping them, you know. It almost feels like I shouldn't. Not with the way I am now. To forget someone that's my friend...it's unforgivable, isn't it?

[There was a handful of pictures inside of the white envelop. So many of them. It was clear she was close with the other boy. After all, there was no other reason for her to have had so many.]

[ That's... a little surprising for Krul to see, not that she really cares in all honesty. Although, from first glance, it would make one think that perhaps there had been something that had gone on between her seraph and this... girl; crimson eyes can't help but slowly glance up to Nike then. ]

This seems rather intimate to be showing me, don't you think?

[ Krul doesn't keep things such as photographs or mementos of those she's forgotten. What's the point? They're all dead and have been for over a thousand years now. All but one...

Her attention back on the girl, slender fingers pluck the photo out of Nike's hand, another glance given to it before she looks back to the girl. ]

What do you mean the way you are now?

[ Because that's an interesting choice of words used and Krul can't help but pick up on that. Normally? She wouldn't care. But when it involves one of her seraphs, she likes to be in the know. ]

[Komasan likes to consider himself responsible, at least when it comes to things like keeping up the house and, say, buying groceries. This grocery trip would've been no different, if his ears didn't pick up music. The singing is loud enough as it is, but with Komasan's sensitive little dog ears, there's no way he can't hear it. He's drawn to it, like a moth to a flame, and immediately detours towards the beach.

Of course, he didn't expect to see some kind of...cloud tornado, and he certainly didn't know Nike had such an ability. What an exciting day it's turning out to be!]

Moooonnngeee~

[His paws squeeze against his cheeks in delight.]

You even got the wind to dance, zuraa~

[Nike was completely concentrated on her task to synchronize better with her new settings, no matter how deep into the ocean or long it'll take for her to achieve it. But when she overhears a rather energetic reaction, she'll turn away from her current tasl to turn to the source. What she finds next to her was amazing!

It was the animal mascot she had many pictures of at her wall back home and stuff animal figure. She couldn't believe to find him next to her like this. He even had a cute saying at the end of his sentences, didn't he? Nike will mirror his reaction as she can't believe her eyes.]

You're...

[He is so cute! She can't help realize that. Kneeling down a bit, she'll give him a more energetic smile.]

Thank you very much! I don't have much experience controlling this world's wind. Do you want to see something cool?

[Gosh, Nike sure seems happy, and it's enough to make Komasan smile in return. ...Or, well, smile even wider. ...If that's even possible. His constant state of being always seems to be along the lines of "excited" one way or another.]

I always wanna see something cool, zura~

[Surely she knows that, what a silly question.]

[She really should have known he was into cool stuff, but all she felt at the moment was determination to impress him no matter what. One way or another, they were going to be friends! She needs to make a magnificent first impression!

It's the reason she'll walk deeper into the coast while stretching her arms and body a bit; preparing for her next masterpiece if the ocean and sky will permit it to.

Taking a deep breath or two, Nike will kneel down and touch the ground with her hands, beginning to chant another spell that will take quick effect to appear in her surroundings: she was creating fog by using the water available to her. It'll begin to spread further into the ocean and cover the beach behind them the more time went by due to the cloudy weather above them covering the sun while the final traces of winter aided.

Once there was enough fog, she'll get up from her position and check her surroundings for a bit.]

That should be enough for now. Time to work at the final part.

[Taking a desperate prayer position, Nike will hope to every deity in this world to help her with the final step. Extending a hand towards the sky, in the direction of the sun, she'll create an opening over the rain clouds, allowing the sun to peek enough sunlight over the fog. In time, a colorless arc will appear in the distance.]

[Komasan stays quiet for the most part, allowing Nike to do her thing while he watches like a good boy. It isn't until the fog starts to build around him that his attention starts to shift as he watches it roll out, his head swinging back and forth as the occasional quizzical "zura" slips from under his breath. But by Komasan standards, this is still pretty calm.

That is until the sun peeks out. It's one thing to make a magic fog, but a magic rainbow? Unable to contain himself, Komasan takes in a giant inhale, only to scream.]

MOOOOOONNNNNGGGEEEE!!

[He waves his arms furiously as he jumps up and down. He probably liked it.]

[Even if learning to swim might be a more ongoing thing to work on, Yuu still finds he loves the beach, even just walking along the sand, barefoot or dipping his feet in the shallows of the waves sometimes on the way back home.

Which is how he comes to find Nike this particular day, blinking and listening as he observes her, the song, the slight levitation. He's not sure if he wants to interrupt though. So initially, he just stands there watching, letting himself sort of drift with the melody of her voice washing over him. He's always enjoyed hearing her. Watching her voice do such amazing things like this.

But he recognizes this is, for her, the first time he'd have seen it. So he isn't sure how she might respond to realizing he is there.]

[It'll take some time before Nike will notice anyone watching her summon the rain clouds above her and her surrounding area at the beach. She was concentrated in getting a better feel for her new surroundings, a better understanding of it that she will continue to sing until she naturally reaches the end of her song. How many times have she sang the same song today? A couple of times. The waves were beginning to grow rougher from the way it was reaching her even when she was levitating a little bit. That slap feeling of the waves touching her feet will bring her back to the present along with the dry feeling in her throat.

She needed a break.

When she turns to look for her shows, she'll notice Yuu close by. Right behind her and a few feet away. A weak smile will appear upon noticing his reaction. It made her happy to see that someone enjoyed her song. That's when she'll make her way over to him.]

Hey! It's been a while. How long have you been listening for?

Ah, I'm not sure I was here right when you started but. You're amazing, Nike.

[Her voice. The power it holds. He's less sure on talking to her about the partner aspect, given she wouldn't recall telling him about the idea in the first place but. Even without one, what she can do -- it's incredible. At least to him, it is.

Yuu can't help smiling though, his expression softening in a rare moment of genuine admiration.]

[Well, that compliment is going to leave Nike quiet as she has no idea on the proper way to accept it. As much as she was accustomed in being given one for her singing, she can't help think about a time where she offended someone with her powers too. It really felt like long ago since she was last able to sing like this now that she thought about it; without making bets or rescuing other nations. To sing for the purpose of making a solid connection.

She'll begin to play with her fingers a bit as she thought about it.]

T-Thank you....I'm glad you liked it. It's been a while for me too....

[Now she felt flustered which she'll try to shake off by pointing to the rest of the shore.]

Do you want to walk around for a bit? I want to see just how far my powers reached the beach. I couldn't have filled it up entirely, r-right?

I know, yours takes a bit of practice with getting to know this place or whatever, from what you've told me, with your weather stuff. It's pretty amazing though.

[He's never seen anything quite like it, amid all the powers and potential here with so many others from various worlds and being given powers on top of that. Still, he glances over the beach when she points, giving a shrug and a smile.]

Sure. I could use a walk after having some ice cream before getting off work earlier, anyway.

[Ah, he knew that much about her powers, was all she could think to herself as he tries to explain it. She'll nod her head; happy to hear she doesn't need to give a reason for singing to the ocean as she had.]

That's right! I'm trying to do just that. You really know your stuff. Not many usually understand about that aspect of my powers.

[He was the closest outside of her family to explain it. She doubts even Livi understood it, no matter the amount of times she's reminded him about it. But, still, she is curious about two things.]

You don't know anyone else with a similar power as me? And what's ice cream? Where do you work? [Okay, make that three questions instead of two. She'll walk further away from the shore to find her shoes buried in the sand.]

Well, I mean. You told me about it before. And the partner thing. But I don't think you found one last time you were here to do that stuff.

[Yuu might not quite understand how rare it might be for her to be so open about her powers, to take the time to explain it to a friend or anyone else. But he tries to manage it, to process what he does know.]

Well, there might be others with weather powers but they might work differently to yours, for all I know. Ice cream is -- that's right, you don't remember me bringing you some from work to try. I drive an ice cream truck. It's mostly kids that I end up serving, but everyone likes it. It's like this frozen dessert you get in a cone to have on hot days to help cool down.

I didn't, huh? [It wasn't a surprise to hear considering the implications of it. To be a rain partner was being chain to her, in a way. With Livi or her older sister, it wasn't an issue, but other people may be a different story. And yet, realizing he knew about it, Nike couldn't help wonder.] Did I tell you the requirements to it or what to expect?

[No matter how inevitable it was to find there weren't people with her exact power, she does feel some slight disappointment at the thought too. She was hoping to meet more people with a similar ability.]

A frozen dessert? What does it taste like? I mean, it must taste really good for children to like it as much as the adults.

Yeah, you told me. I mean, I'm not sure if there's more to it than what you already said before, but. I get the idea.

[Enough that he figures this isn't so different to his connection with Ashuramaru almost, without the threat of possession by her if he were to go through with this. He'd probably be fine with it, if she offered or asked him.]

Taste is...that depends, there's lots of flavors for you to try! I'll bring you some sometime.

[It's been a few weeks ever since she arrived to this world. There was a lot she has learned about it. For one, it was bigger than she expected, it was overly populated, and it held thousands of different languages and types of government. The country she was now part of as a temporary guest was one; although the sovereign style of government still existed, but in a different form.

Whatever the case, Nike lost her position as royalty in this world which gave her a lot more freedom; however due to being labelled as unregister, she was forbidden from travelling to other countries without permission. Unlike her roommate Sorey and his childhood friend, Mikleo. They had gone on a trip together and its been a few days since they returned back home. Nike was excited to learn about their travels that she decided to ask Mikleo about it. He was always around at home, by what Sorey told her, so it should be okay to ask him now that he had time to recover from his trip.

Walking up to him with a plate filled with frozen yogurt and fruit treat, she'll give him a smile.]

I heard that you were really good at making frozen treats, so I decided to make some. Would you like to try it?

[This was ~~no way~~ a bribe....]

Edited 2017-03-31 00:46 (UTC)

[ Mikleo blinks a little when Nike approaches him, offering a small, soft mile in return. ]

Good afternoon, Nike. That sounds lovely, thank you.

[ It's still a little saddening that she doesn't remember anything - doesn't remember him or Sorey, yet he knows that they'll make new memories, and he can tell her about the old ones in time. He wants to wait for the right moment. ]

Have you been settling in alright?

Edited 2017-03-31 03:29 (UTC)

I have! Everyone has been nothing but helpful in getting me back to my usual schedule. [With a sheepish smile.] But I do admit, after almost of year of non-stop training to become queen, it's odd having more free time to myself while having to work in something else.

[She became even more diligent over her lessons from back home that she never once imagined she'd begin to miss it once they were gone. Nevertheless, there will always be one interest that will surpass it: travelling.]

How about you? How was your trip with Sorey?

You did say you were a princess, so it's no wonder that you were training to be a queen. Is there no way to continue that training here?

[ He takes a bite from one of the treats she'd offered, eyes widening a little. ] ... These are good, Nike. [ He says with some awe. If he didn't know any better, he'd say that she'd been practicing quite a bit. ]

It was good, though I think that he's rather happy to be back, too. Still, I'm sure that he'll want to be planning for a new trip in no time, too.
