Sora (♀)
30 December 2010 @ 02:32 am
[Sora is in the orchard today, sitting beneath one of the trees. She's got a bunch of starfruit in her lap, and is absently nibbling on one as she reflects on what all has happened so far. She's lost in thought, ignoring her surroundings, and utterly depressed--or as depressed as someone like Sora can be. Her thoughts are consumed with memories of Riku and Kairi and her parents, and just the Islands in general. And especially that night when it all fell apart. And then she'd woken up here, where she found out there's no way out. And soon after that, she'd woken up in the middle of a blizzard where she'd managed to find shelter and eventually come to a rest in a stone house where she'd holed up with someone else while things scratched at the doors and windows. ...Speaking of, that had left her with a slight cold and the impression that snow might not be so much fun, after all.

Feel free to bug her or otherwise interrupt her thoughts.]
 
 
The mirror opens up on a partially-buried machine - the unfinished ANIMa Creche, for those who remember it.

Anna dusts the snow off of it and runs a diagnostic, frowning.

Fortunately, at the end of it, she nods. Lucky her, it still works, mostly - most of the bugs are things becoming physically disconnected, which she fixes.

She then takes a small jar of what appears to be sand from her pocket and -

Ah. It is sand, from the wild places. Because she spills it around herself in a circle, resulting in a small barracks springing up around her and, more importantly, the device.

It's layout is roughly hexagonal. The final part is a large door - she unbars it, exits, and dusts off her hands.

Then notices the mirror, looks around furtively, then sighs. "Just thought I'd check up on Creche Alpha, make sure it was safe," she says to the Mirror.
