Garnet 01 }{ Video or Action

[A new woman's face make an appearance on the communicator. She is sitting at a cafe in Traverse Town's first district with it propped up against something on the table. She seems fairly comfortable with using it. Her dark hair falls over her shoulders and she brushes it back without thought. A cup of tea can be seen sitting in front of her and she sits before it with an elegant grace about her. She is in fashionable civilian clothes and she offers the broadcast a warm, if small, smile.]

Hello. My name is Setsuna Meioh. I've been filled in on what I believe are the basics of this place and what has been going on. Or at least that this is a very elaborate dream world. I'm afraid the Moogle could not give me much information on who was here or who would be a good person to speak with about the current problems that result in people being pulled into dreams that are not there own. Or why they are being attacked in them for that matter.

[She sighs, letting it turn into an action that cools her tea. She raises the cup to her lips, sips, and then sets it back down, she looks down at the tea with a pensive expression.]

I thought I was done worrying about being attacked in my dreams. I suppose my prediction that the peace would not last was accurate.

[She looks up. Trying to appear cool, calm, and collected. It's fairly successful except for the tiny bit of worry in her eyes.]

I'll be at this outdoors cafe if you would like to meet in person. I do prefer speaking that way over communication devices like this...but I can understand if you are shy to meet me. I only wish to have more information.

[The feed will end there. If persons are in the First District of Traverse Town feel free to sit and join her. The bag the moogle gave her rests on the table and obviously she hasn't made her Dream Eater yet. Perhaps you would like to give her some advice]

They're just energetic. [A bit sheepish, he grabbed the pair of them -- one by the neck and one by the tail -- to ease them out of his clothing and back onto the ground.] All Spirits are, I think!

Hm. Yes I believe I have been told as much.

[But she wasn't quite appreciating the fact until now.]

[Right. You two behave. Edge is trying to get his smooth on. Clearing his throat, he looks up with a bright, suave expression -- at least in his eyes, which are visible.]

But they're well worth the company. Though it's always good to spend time around other people, too...

I'll have to see for myself soon. Everyone has been encouraging me to make my first spirit soon.

[She smiles.]

It is good. I'm glad to know I won't have to be alone here.

I'm surprised you managed to get away from the Moogles without making one. But you never had to worry about being alone anyway -- a cute girl like you, I wouldn't ever leave to the depths of loneliness!

[Ah, that's a much better line now that his Spirits aren't interrupting it!]

Well I have the materials. [She reaches for a bag that the moogles provided her with and holds it up as demonstration.] But I was too curious about exploring on my own to wait around and listen to their tutorial about how to assemble the Spirit.

[If Setsuna were the type to blush, this might be it. But she's really not, though she does find his words touching.]

Thank you. That is quite sweet of you to say.

[Sadly though, she HAD known loneliness. Quite a bit of it in fact. Shew as used to it.]

As sweet as your presence, but not half as pretty!

[Ooh, that was a good one too! He mentally pats himself on the back... before acknowledging that he probably ought to give her some don't-get-killed advice in all seriousness before he goes back to shamelessly hitting on her.]

I wouldn't wait on getting a Spirit, though. They're valuable companions, and they're good companions against their Nightmare counterparts, who you'll have to fight in all the worlds. Of course, my blades are at your service whenever you have need, but it still never hurts to have a trusty Spirit friend or two at your side as well.

[Wow he was certainly laying it on thick now. Setsuna couldn't help but smile and wonder what Haruka or Michiru would make of this. They would either tease her or the poor ninja, she wasn't quite sure which yet. But Setsuna was a cool-headed type and merely gave the other a small smile...she only hoped she wasn't leading him on. He did seem quite nice after all.]

While I appreciate the offer of your blades, I assure you I have fought many battles on my own up until now and I believe I can continue to do so.

[She looks down at the bag though and starts to take out the dream pieces.]

But, it would seem that everyone else has these companion Spirits and that they are made for fighting such enemeies, so I suppose it would not hurt to go ahead and make one.

[If nothing else, she would have a companion who she could study as related to the Nightmares. Setsuna shifts in her chair and starts putting the dream pieces she had been given together as the Moogles had instructed her but she had been putting off. The pieces start to glow and then POOF, before her is a big-headed cat with spikes on its body and tail. It appears to only have two feet and squeaks happily as it drops onto the floor before her. Setsuna cannot help but blink at the strange creature.]

Even after seeing yours and other's spirits, I was still not quite expecting that.

[You can't lead a man on when he has no expectations of success. Edge's flirting is more of a valiant, defiant effort to beat the odds rather than something conducted with any assurance of success. Or to be less self-aware about it, cute girls get flirted with, it's just a rule.]

That's a Pricklemane. You should see the Meow Wows, they're even stranger!

[Edge's own Spirits leap forward to say hello to their new friend, gamboling about with all the energy in the world. Edge chuckles a little, watching them play briefly before looking back up to Setsuna.]

Trust me, no one's saying you're not capable of fighting alone. But I am saying you don't need to! No one's back is so strong that having someone to watch it hurts more than it helps.

Pricklemane. [She repeats the name, still staring.] It does fit, doesn't it. [The Pricklemane squeaks again. It bounces a little closer, moving to rub against Setsuna's leg...until it is pounced by the other spirits nearby. Oh so close! But it's not going to complain about new playmates! The newly created spirit rolls happily with its brethren and for the moment is oblivious to the two humans still conversing.

Setsuna, after watching the energy for a bit, looks back to her drink. His words certainly hit home and remind her a lot of something her princess would say. Wasn't it just recently that they had all come together in this new life for the same purpose? She smiles.]

Of course. I suppose even after recent events back home it's still difficult for me to think in terms of a team. I suppose I'll just have to continue to work on that then.

[Granted, working with the other senshi was different than working with complete strangers. But she could learn to do that as well if she had to.]

Now you're talking! [Edge flips his cloak dramatically back as he lifts a fist victoriously.] Take it from me -- sometimes a team can be a pain, but even two people together can accomplish twice as much as two people separately. And that's the voice of experience talking!

[He'd fallen against Rubicante alone, but together he and his friends had vanquished the Archfiend of Fire quite handily, after all!]

Of course. I've had some of that experience as well.

[Setsuna can think of several instances as well. It seems that she has more in common with him than she originally thought.]

But thank you for the advice.

Been on an adventure or two of your own, I take it?

[Edge settles in a bit, completely certain she'll answer his question at length. He IS legitimately interested, at least!]

I spent a long time guarding a special door. But, yes, after that I have been on an adventure or two. At least, I suppose you could call it that.

And here's another one! A bit slower-paced than the one I knew, and I haven't been to the Moon yet, but I've changed shape a few times. Now that's one to write home about!

Perhaps the lovely lady would like an escort and a lesson, the first time she goes to Ponyville?

Are you offering one? I suppose it wouldn't hurt to have guidance the first time I'm to visit a world that changes my form.

More than offering, I would be honored! [He springs to his feet, the better to bow most deeply to her.] What could be more noble in life than aiding a lady in need?

[Less playfully, he adds:] And you'll be in need when you transform. It's really strange.

I should have known. I would appreciate the aid in exploring these new worlds.

[She's not sure what she's in for, but if she has someone there it shouldn't be so bad.]

Thank you.

Than I shall be your escort, and show you how to walk the worlds!

Ponyville's darker than Traverse Town right now, but it's lit too. So no time like the present?

All right.

[Setsuna sees no sense in passing up the opportunity to explore these other worlds. She knows she has to learn as much as she can after all. Setsuna pushes back and stands. The Pricklemane seems to sense that they are about to go somewhere new and bounces excitedly.]

It would seem that someone is quite eager to go.

Such a vision of loveliness would inspire even the laziest roustabout to action!

[And then more seriously, although there's not that much difference between his shameless flirtations and his normal tone...]

Besides, a complete bodily transformation is pretty startling to say the least, and there are Nightmares. If I go with you, I know that at least you'll stay safe while you're getting the hang of the new form.

You're very sweet.

[Setsuna offers the ninja a smile that is small but pleasant. She pats the spot between the Pricklemane's ears and looks to Edge]

So how do we go about getting to this world?

It's a short walk, is all. All of the other different worlds are reached by going to the particular... nexus, I suppose, on the world you're on.

[He beckons for her to join him, as he turns to lead the way.]

[Knowing where these Nexus are sounds important. She will need this information sooner rather than later. She nods and follows the ninja towards wherever the Nexus of this world might be. Curious about this Ponyville.

The Dream Eater squeaks and follows, Setsuna realizing that she might need to choose a name for her soon.]

[Through the streets they go, Edge's Spirits following along -- Kaiton gamboling, Suiton simply pacing -- until at last they reach the fountain, with its curious dog imagery. Edge turns to face her again, one hand spread towards it.]

This, for some reason, is where we travel. Four connecting worlds. Traverse Town, which we're in. Twilight Town, the Mother of Invention, and Ponyville. You simply decide where you want to go, and --

[Into the portal he steps, no matter than it hadn't been there a second ago!]
