IT'S A TWOFER [OPEN]
[The Hills of Neloi & Westermiln | The 6th]
[After a few times creeping in and out of a camping group, Reira, a new phone, and her personal headspace companion are off on their own once again. It's better that way, she thinks. As much as making new friends would be nice, she doesn't enjoy causing the stress and worry she's seen from anyone present during one of Zarc's tantrums. What started as avoidance for the sake of caution becomes avoidance for the sake of 'care'. As she wanders along the highway and eventually off the beaten path into more hilled terrain, this becomes 'easier' to accept. It's quieter here.
And even Zarc can't whine forever (though he does his best to try).
It is perhaps mid morning, after sleeping in under some tree cover, that it hits. For the most part, she hasn't been unaware of the changes her limbs are going through-obviously the arm with a glove on it was obvious, but she can see the ever growing scales along her other elbow, as well as her knees. When she wakes in the morning to roll her sleeve back and see not only bulking scales and 'muscle' (or at last what looks like it) gathering around some kind of violet stone, she feels a chill run down her spine.
It looks like Dark Rebellion's stones.
...It frightens her. Despite knowing it'll only encourage Zarc to laugh more in her head, all she can think is if this would have happened if Yuuya had resisted more. A slow, gradual descent into-]
NGHK-
[That is about when she jumps, a shock of pain different from Zarc's typical tantrums, shoots through her rear. Zarc, in fact, makes an enormous deal about it not even being him...for whatever reason, something he'd only vaguely grumbled about once or twice while she considered the 'zarc-like' limb changes. But the girl shouts, and runs, blindly pacing the tree with her hands at her backside as if trying to find some kind of animal biting there.
There's no animal, but when she finally ends up tripping face first on the ground thanks to the aimless running-] Yy-LLFP!
[...Sproof.
That sure is a big fluffy tail seemingly made of nothing but feathers and down.]
[Now I Am Here, Now I Am There- | The 8th]
[She....
Is lost.
Reira holds her middle, stomach growling a bit as she wanders. It's been a few days now-there's been lots of berries at least, so she's managed to at least eat. And she managed to wander near a river too, which helps. But she's lost. She's lost, and all she can think of is finding another campfire, or finding Yuusei, or...
She could probably use the phone but admittedly the thought doesn't actually occur to her since she's not used to using phones anyway. It doesn't help that her tail is an inch or two longer either. It still looks like it's all feathers and fluff, but there's definitely something long in there, somewhere...
It's tucked in her shorts right now though.
Reira wanders. She wanders, and wanders, until finally she just squeezes her eyes shut and stiffens. She's lost, she's hungry, and Zarc is going on and on about it and whining about how she's in over her head, this is all her fault, she was at least better off with the 'duelist' (because at least then he could maybe fight the guy)-]
Just STOP!
[Rather suddenly there's a burst of flower petals, feathers, and some kind of wind-blown dust.
And then suddenly she's elsewhere.] Mnh?
[This happens more than once, actually.] AHH-!
[Too many times.]
KNGH- [Suffice to say she looks pretty frazzled whenever she finally comes to some kind of stop for....however long she has.]

And unanswered messages, ah] Ahhhh....no subject
Now we can still keep in touch, even if we get separated again.
no subject
[And what a relief that will be!] ...Thank you.
no subject
[Give him a second, and he'll message you a copy of the map that he snapped a picture of from Hal. Thanks, Hal.]
no subject
And there it is, the map...she looks it over, blinking widely.] ...I wonder if I can track where I go....
[Be awful nice.]
no subject
This is just a picture instead of a map program...the phones I took might have some kind of travel app in them, but for you...maybe use the picture editing software, mark things?
[And he points to where the city of Arcrion is-pretty huge landmark, considering the size of the city.]
This is where Hal and Prompto and some others are planning to go. It's the largest city in the area, so we think we'll find more clues there. And we're...
[He squints at the map, cross-referencing it to his own travel plans, and the last landmark he saw, pointing to another spot on the map.]
Here.
no subject
Anyway.] ...Thank you for everything, Yuusei.
