[So, here's Sol, fresh out of the Labyrinth. Physically, she looks perfectly fine. Her expression, on the other hand, is a mixture of distress and rage, and her hands at her sides are balled into fists and trembling. Clearly, she ran into something there that has left her more than a little shaken.]

[She doesn't seem to be aware that the Vine is broadcasting. For a long time, she doesn't speak or move at all but for the shaking of her hands. Then, abruptly, she hauls back and punches the nearest tree.]

Goddammit.

Oh.

Not pudding, then, either.

[Actually, now that she thinks about it...]

Never been one for comfort food.

[She's always dealt with her frustration by doing something physical, like...well, hitting things.]

You should really try it. It works, if you let it.

Otherwise, I'd offer to spar with you, but... Recent events have made me even less into fighting than usual.

[Spar? Sol raises an eyebrow.]

You don't look like much of a fighter.

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's the general assumption. And then the other Nations seem surprised when I kick their asses.

But that's more formal military. It's been a bit since I did much hand to hand, but I've rough-housed around enough in my day.

[The eyebrow goes higher. Well, considering her commander in the Holy Order was a 16-year-old boy, it's not necessarily surprising, but...]

You a military leader?

I'm a country. Though I did lead one campaign, against my sister, ages ago. And I hung around headquarters in the first World War a lot.

[For a few seconds, Sol just stares, her expression completely blank. And then, flatly:] A country.

[video]

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

Yes, Canada.

...You're serious.

[video]

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

Yes. Completely.

[Sol just keeps staring. She's not sure if she believes it, but that seems like a pretty weird thing to lie about, if she is lying. Something too outlandish to anything but true, perhaps.]

[Well, that, or this girl is off her rocker. One of the two.]

...How?

[video]

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

It's just how I am. How I've been for... something between five hundred and a thousand years, depending on who you ask. I don't really remember.

There's all sorts of my kind, back in my world. Actually, there's a handful of my kind here, too.

[video]

[dragoninstalled.livejournal.com]

...Right.

[She's obviously still skeptical, but she'll just go with it until something proves otherwise.]

[video]

[welljustwatchme.livejournal.com]

Ah... you think I'm crazy, don't you?

[video]

[dragoninstalled.livejournal.com]

[Sol is far too blunt to be anything but truthful.]

Most likely.

That's what I figured. It's alright. I get that it might be a bit odd if you're not used to it.
