[ on this fine day, ramiel is currently on a nice walk along the beach in bikini bottom! they spot firefly nearby and immediately stop where they are to give her a wave! ]
[ you would think that perhaps someone would use the gazebo, but no. when firefly goes searching, she will find herself walking through the garden behind the church for a while before coming across zuriel sitting in a patch of flowers. but it's quiet out here, and it means it's easy to hear someone approaching. ]
Oh. It's... Firefly? [ it's the name from her profile, but the way they say it is an offer to call her something else if she would like. ]
I don't know if I like the idea that so many of you are used to fighting. [ what were you all doing, god. ] But it's different for all of us. For one thing, I imagine when you're fighting you at least know what to expect... right?
[ ramiel is out in the market place around nightfall, after the Halloween decorations have been put away but before the fireworks have started. they're just walking, and will give firefly a small wave when they see her. ]
I suppose so. But I think that I like it at every time of day.
Were you here to see the other holidays? [ they don't know if firefly maybe missed some staying in the neighborhood and we've only had the market for one day so YOU NEVER KNOW. ]
[ lailah can be found in the church! just tidying up. the graveyard automatically repairs damage so this is basically pointless for her to be doing. and yet. she is wiping down the stained glass windows with a cloth, humming until she hears firefly enter. ]
Oh, Firefly. Or—I'm sorry, I've seen others call you Samuel? Which do you prefer?

Good morning! Enjoying the sun?

Good morning. I am. I only saw beaches a few times.
Do you like it here?
no subject
[ they bounce on their feet a bit. ] Yes. I like watching the waves, and the sand feels very interesting!
no subject
No, most of my work was in the city.
no subject
What sort of work did you do?
no subject
I was a tour guide on Penacony, it's also known as The Planet of Festivities.

no subject
Which is why she'll take a seat with them. ]
Yes, that's right.
... How are you?
no subject
Frustrated, I think. Much like everybody else I bet. But I think that should be my question for you. Are you alright?
[ it matters very little that this is the first time they've spoken. it's important to ask. ]
no subject
[ Everyone's trying to cope, as far as she's seen. ]
These last few days were difficult. I'm used to fighting, but this... it's different.
no subject
no subject
[ Sorry you got such a weird group in your experiment. There had to be better choices. ]
Yes. I'd usually know who or what I'm fighting against.

Sort of. I've celebrated some of them, for a while.
