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.

It's kind of hard to explain, but the short version is that the afterlife I ended up in isn't exactly the norm. You're only there until you find satisfaction, then you're reincarnated. Naturally, if you could stay hurt or get sick, you'd fall into one of the traps of life where you might end up absolutely miserable again. So, if you get hurt, no matter how badly you'll heal completely. You can't get sick. There aren't any hospitals, just a nurse's office with a couple of beds and no nurse because technically we shouldn't need them. Most of us were in better shape there than we ever were alive. Trust me, even though I'm here because they took me out of the afterlife, there'd still be a corpse somewhere in the ground in the world I was alive in. Or ashes. I'm not really sure, I wasn't there for it. [ A brief pause ] I hope it was one of those, anyway.

[ 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.
magentarific: Yuri clearly doesn't care. (♛ apart)

Nevermind, it'd be a pain to try to explain that sort of thing anyway. [ Mostly she'd have to say more than she wants to talk about. ]

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.

Maybe some other time. It's a story longer than the rest of the rambling I've done right now. [ And no one ever gets the end of the story anyway. ]

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.

There's nothing about me that's important that I won't share, don't worry. You just got here though, shoving my baggage on you would be a little weird. Especially considering something you are missing that's very important.

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.

We can swap stories once you're more settled in.

Yuri Nakamura's their leader. If you ask someone about her they'll either call her Yuri or Yurippe.

Luke's pretty cool. He'll probably help you find some place. If you need help at any point swing by to House 40, Hermione.
magentarific: (Hehe~)

[ There's a teasing smile in her voice. ]

It's Yuri Nakamura. Yuri or Yurippe is fine, though!

Because it would've been more amusing if someone had told you where to find me and you showed up, then I could be sitting in a large chair somewhere with my legs crossed in dim lighting for no good reason other than dramatic effect when you entered the room.

Time won't pass back in your world, so time's not an issue. If you don't make jokes and have fun every once in a while, you're going to screw up from being too stressed out. Besides, you would've gone around asking, met a bunch of people, and gotten a mini-tour of Luceti too while you were at it.

Don't apologize for it. I can guarantee that I will mess with you to my hearts content if I'm in the mood for it, just like anyone else. Consider it a friendly gesture. But...

[ 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.
magentarific: Yuri looking excited. (♛ of their game)

Hey, if dead people can find something to smile about then I expect you to be able to at least try.

[ 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.

You know now. There are probably plenty of apartments open even if you don't know anyone.
