Define strange!

Then occurrences and also legends!

1/2

[reservoirs]

[ HOEEEEEE ]

Oh, well, by strange, I mean "things that can't easily be explained" and by occurrences, I mean "events that only started happening recently..."

[reservoirs]

Do you mind if I explain myself instead?

[crusniks]

When you ask with such a downcast expression, how can I say no? And I had all sorts of counter-arguments ready like how "things that can't be easily explained" would cover too many things like a smile or why people think it's important to know how many angels would dance on the head of a pin. But I'll let them all go and I won't even make a production of how generous I'm being. [ dismissive wave of a hand ]

Probably because I'm really not being generous at all! I do want to hear your explanation more than I want to hear my counter-arguments.

[ o... okay... sakura takes a deep breath ] Well, you see, miss, my friends and I are travelers. We travel to different worlds to look for something very important to me. I was wondering if you've seen anything like it.

[crusniks]

So this situation must not be very new to you. I'll have to get tips on how best to adjust to being forcibly and non-voluntarily relocated!

As to the other, I'd have to know what it is first to say if I've encountered anything similar. Is it something you'd be free to describe or would something unpleasant happen to me after to erase my recollection of it?

[reservoirs]

Oh, it's nothing like that! It's only... capable of doing so many things.

A fragment of memory, in the shape of a feather. That's what's missing.

[crusniks]

Soul as a feather, huh? How mythic! How sad.

So what is it capable of doing? I think it'll be easiest to find it by looking for its effects than for itself. Lots of things with feathers in the world, you know. It would make the world quite the haystack, only with less hay.

[ She chuckles at that. ]

Hmm, it created a barrier around the Ryanban's castle in Koryo, and it protected children from sickness in Jade, and in Piffle, they said it was an energy source that could power an entire city...

[crusniks]

Power and protection. [ she smiles at sakura ] What memories you must have that those are what they can be channeled to do.

[reservoirs]

All the memories I've gotten so far are wonderful. My family, my friends and my people have been nothing but kind. That's why I don't want to forget every single one of them.

[crusniks]

If you'll accept the well-wishes of a stranger, it's my hope that nothing will happen to change that belief.

[reservoirs]

Thank you very much! But I don't wish for us to be strangers for too long. What's your name, miss? I'm Sakura.

[crusniks]

Hm! I don't know if I can answer for that wish but I can at least answer your question! I'm Seth, a pretty girl just passing by who is happy to meet Sakura-in-search-of-her-feathers.

[reservoirs]

I'm glad I met Seth-san as well!

Oh, but... you really haven't seen anything like it anywhere?

[crusniks]

A meeting well-received by both! Congratulations to us! [ what that implies about seth. lol ]

Nothing like it and not anywhere. But then I haven't been here for very long. [ in fact NOT AT ALL. ]

[reservoirs]

I'll just have to keep looking harder, then. [ she bows like the people in future japan do ] Um! Thank you for your time, Seth-san!

[crusniks]

Running away already? Well it's a very polite escape attempt so I'll let it go! I'll be cheering you on!
