First, in which Angel arrives

[The camera doesn't show anything but blue for a moment, then you see the mansion from above and a flash of something that looks like a giant dove. The camera is high up in the air, and the direction is clear. It comes from up and is headed down ...just that there is something in the way. A head, to be exact. Blond curls. The journal bounces off it and falls deeper, passing the face of a little girl that is stuck somewhere between fear, confusion, alertness and tiredness. Her eyes are hollow and smudged with purple rings, and one whole side of her face is a single bruise. And then there is only white cloth and the view of the mansion as the journal falls further and rotates.
It falls, and falls, and then you there are suddenly fingers around it and it is turned around to face the child from before. All you can see the arms that are full of burn marks and little wounds where needles have been inserted into her arms. There also is something that looks like an IV on her arm. If you look closer, you will see white feathers behind her back. Or maybe on her back.
She silently examines the journal, the little face tense, and after a few moments she switches on the audio.]
Max. Gazzy. Fang, Iggy, Nudge. Are you here?
Jeb. Was that you?

[Action]
Date: 2010-01-17 08:59 am (UTC)You're Gokudera?
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-17 09:02 am (UTC)Come inside. You're gonna freeze.
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-17 09:18 am (UTC)Why is it winter?
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-17 09:22 am (UTC)It's January here.
[Action] - could you type out his thoughts, or hint at them? She's in his head now=3
Date: 2010-01-17 09:39 am (UTC)That means that we are on the northern half of the planet.
[Hemisphere just isn't something that a girl of her age would use normally, so she doesn't.]
[Action] - Sure thing!
Date: 2010-01-17 09:46 am (UTC)Nothing pleasant to be thought of concerning Bel, obviously.]
I'm pretty sure this world isn't really a planet.
[Too small to be one, really, considering how short a distance you go before you loop back on your path. He understands the physics of it, more or less.]
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-17 10:41 am (UTC)And flying away if the sky is blocked? On the other side he's right about the attention.]
No, it is a place on Earth, not a planet itself...
[..is it? She lets her head fall forward a bit, blond, dull locks tumbling forward. If it is not, where is the flock?]
Could you find me a jacket? [She is still shivering from the cold, though her question isn't because of that, but that she needs it to hide the wings.]
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-17 08:03 pm (UTC)[He takes off the zip-up sweatshirt he's wearing and offers it to her. There isn't a closet in this room and he doesn't want to take her out into the hall if she's still wary about this place.]
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-17 08:26 pm (UTC)Thank you.
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-17 08:31 pm (UTC)[He grinds his cigarette butt out in the ashtray next to him on the bench, wondering if he should ask one of the other kids to room with Angel so she's not by herself. He's also concerned about all the wounds he saw on her.]
Do you need someone to look at the burns and stuff on your arms?
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-17 08:49 pm (UTC)Someone to take this [points at the IV-like thing] out.
We have rooms here?
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-17 08:52 pm (UTC)[And where'd that question come from?] Ah, yeah. We're all stuck here, and there are lots of rooms, so we just get comfortable.
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-17 09:18 pm (UTC)Which one is mine?
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-18 12:20 am (UTC)Any one you want. There are more than there are people, so most of them are empty.
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-18 12:51 am (UTC)More importantly, too!]
Can one get teddies here? And stuffed cats and dogs and dolls?
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-18 01:28 am (UTC)Uh, yeah, from the closets. Each room has one, and it'll give you what you need. You just have to think about it.
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-18 05:36 am (UTC)[The picture in his mind just lacked the actual thing that you do to get the things. And the how you get them.]
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-18 05:39 am (UTC)You just think of what you want and it appears. Uh...like magic, I guess.
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-18 05:47 am (UTC)[Whirls around, 100% excited 6-year-old that just got told that she can have everything in the world if she just asks for it. Dangerous mix, actually, or it would be in another world.]
Where is one?
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-18 05:52 am (UTC)Want me to help you find a room?
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-18 05:55 am (UTC)[Skips towards the door, waiting for him.]
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-18 06:01 am (UTC)Um...maybe a room on one of the higher floors would be better.
[His reasoning is that the higher floors of the mansion have fewer people living on them. Which decreases the chance that she'll get hurt.]
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-18 08:30 am (UTC)[Heading towards the stairs; high floors are good for starting. you need a few meters that you can fall to unfold your wings. And she'd like a place where she can be up in the air in no time. It's safer.
Ans then she turns around a bit, skipping back and slipping her hand into Gokudera's.]
Do you have family back home?
[Action]
Date: 2010-01-18 08:37 am (UTC)[He's surprised when she takes his hand, and he tightens his grip around hers reflexively as they head for the stairs.]
Yeah. [Of course, he has family here too, because family is a strange term for him. So his first thoughts are of Tsuna and Yamamoto, and Hibari and Ryohei secondarily--they come to mind before it occurs to him what she actually means, and then he thinks of his sister and his father and kind of vaguely of his mother, although he doesn't remember her easily.]
Do you?
