The First Page: [V i d e o]
I haven't the slightest clue why I was brought to...? [What does she even call this place? A forest? A paradise? She doesn't feel entirely settled with calling her new surroundings the latter. Something is definitely off. After all, hadn't she been in the Headmaster's office at Hogwarts a moment ago?
Crossing her arms over her chest, she presses her lips together, a determined glint in her eyes.]
My name is Hermione Granger and I know for a fact that I did not choose to come here. Nor did I choose to have wings fastened onto my back.
[That part is quite curious. Bringing her somewhere against her will is one thing, but attaching wings to her back without her realizing it is another. She wonders if she had been rendered unconscious for awhile.]
Is there any way to rid myself of them? They are...cumbersome. [Not to mention they make her feel like a walking target.
She lowers her voice and adds in an undertone:] It's a shame Luna didn't come with me. This seems like something out of The Quibbler.
[Rolling her shoulders to relieve some tension, she exhales.]
I have a number of questions for anyone who has the time. I've tried to speak to the villagers, but they're not terribly... [animate] ...helpful. I wonder if they're under some spell?
[Hermione shakes her head and shifts from foot to foot.]
I would sincerely appreciate any aid. Thank you.

[ She nods. ]
The last draft they took a little girl who lives with me and a lot of the people I talk to normally. There aren't a whole lot of elderly people here though, so I can't say for sure about that. I doubt they'd care anyway. I can't say for sure, but I think if you get old and die from old age, you just come back younger again.
voice;
[The whole topic makes her think of all of those bodies in the Great Hall. So many friends. So many people she wished she had gotten to know better.]
Children shouldn't be involved in a war! I can't believe they think that's okay. I won't stand for it. [If she can do anything about it at all. Maybe she could raise a public outcry?]
voice;
No one in here really thinks it is and if you're planning on talking to the Malnosso, it won't work. They've got their own set of morals that include human experimentation. Sending a kid out to do the dirty work isn't something they really care about. It's just whoever the shifts are working with.
voice;
How many people are in Luceti? Is it a significant amount? [Because numbers could be useful.] I have no intention of approaching the Malnosso. I'd start with the foreigners first.
voice;
A pretty big amount. More than a hundred, I think. I can probably get a solid numeber for you a little later, I've got a guy. It depends on how many New Feathers we've got though-- New Feathers are people who just arrive, like you.
voice;
It's no wonder where the name originates. [A small, breathy laugh.] If there are more than a hundred of us with various powers maybe we could send a message to the Malnosso.
voice;
Definitely not! Uniting everyone for that's the problem. Besides, there are a few people working on figuring out a good way to send a message.
voice;
I would like to contact those people if I can. Do you know any of their names?
voice;
Yuri Nakamura's their leader. If you ask someone about her they'll either call her Yuri or Yurippe.
voice;
Alright. [She mentally stores those names away.] I think I should get some rest first before I start on a new campaign.
voice;

voice;
Actually didn't catch your name.
[
Yuri, you made things purposefully difficult, didn't you?]voice;
It's Yuri Nakamura. Yuri or Yurippe is fine, though!

I'm still tense. [In battle-mode.] I haven't had a chance to joke or even smile for months. It's difficult to just...
[She trails off, clenching her teeth together.]
I'm sorry for being terse.
voice;
[ No chance to joke or smile for a long time. Yuri knows how that is. ]
Don't let yourself forget how to smile no matter what, okay? It's important. Even if it's hard, that's the one way that you know you've still got something to fight for because your smile is the one thing that no one can take from you.
[ Unless they're like.. a dentist or something, but she doesn't think there are any dentists here. ]
Plus it's a hell of a way to shove it down someone's throat when they think they're winning.
voice;
[Everything has been too serious for that sort of thing lately.]
I've honestly been afraid to hope for too much. [And that's all she has left. There's not much else to smile about.] It would be easier if Ron and Harry were here. But I guess that's pretty selfish of me to wish for that.
[Or you can just punch them in the face.]
I can take care of myself. [She'll be even better at it once she has had some rest.]
voice;
[ Yuri pauses for a moment. With this girl's attitude and interest in trying to get to the Malnosso, she'd thought about trying to recruit her, but there was something new she was trying and Hermione didn't quite meet the bill just yet. ]
Anyway, I'm not telling you anything else about this place until you get more settled in.
voice;
I hadn't known the dead could smile, though I had hoped they would. [In the after-life, of course.]
I think that would be best. I'm...exhausted. [There, she admitted it.]
