[There's a new girl in the gardens today.
It's probably easy enough to see that she's new. She's still wearing the white shift she'd awoken in, after all, apparently electing to carry her own clothes in her arms. The only change is that her hair is now tied back with a band that sparkles strangely in the light, and a battered pair of yellow sneakers protect her feet. She has her school uniform bundled under one arm, and with the other, she holds a scroll in front of her face, reading closely and determinedly as she walks through the grass and the flowers without any obvious destination in mind but a clear determination to get there.
But every so often she pauses, looks up, looks around. She sees an orchard with crisp autumn leaves in the ground, and she wants to go and jump in them. She sees a field of glistening snow, and stops herself from going to make snow angels. She comes across a riverbank heavy with the heat of summer, and shakes off the drowsy impulse to take a nap, despite the fact that traveling dimensions is hard on a kid.
And she is just a kid, still just a kid. However, she resists the temptation to play like one and, after one last look of longing towards the beauty around her, instead trudges on, reading as she walks, having no clue where she's going but determined to get there all the same.]
((ooc: Chihiro's most likely to be found not walking at the "season change" areas of the garden, but otherwise, there's a small girl still in her shift and reading her scrolls and heading somewhere. Bother?))

It's at about this moment that Chihiro realizes that, just because she's hearing Fionna speak in Japanese, doesn't mean the other girl is actually speaking Japanese.]
That was nice of them.
Uh, WRONG icon...
no subject
...
...what do you even say to that?]
At least there are still cats.
[...] Maybe that's what happened here. I mean...before we all got here.
no subject
Yeah, all over! And not just them, but birds and bears help in this place too!
What do you mean?
no subject
[What does she mean? An apocalypse is a big idea to wrap your mind around, when you're thirteen.]
...maybe there used to be people here, people who were supposed to live here, but then something happened and there weren't. And maybe the Queen was lonely, and that's why she's bringing all of us here.
[...] She must have had a lot of sisters.
no subject
Maybe. So you just think she had no bros, or a dad?
no subject
And lots of people don't have any brothers. A lot of girls at my school only have sisters. They just don't have that many. Maybe all her brothers went somewhere else, too.
no subject
Yeah, or it might be something else! Besides, if all you had were sisters, you get to a pain to each other eventually. So you might not wanna steal a whole bunch more!
no subject
And sometimes you don't know how important they are until they're gone.
[Chihiro has always tried to appreciate and respect and honor her parents in case of this happening to her one day, unaware of the fact that it already has and she's subconsciously compensating.]
...but maybe that's not it at all.
no subject
I found that out.
Cuz...yeah.
no subject
[Chihiro feels about six inches tall, and stares determinedly down at the ground. She can feel her face getting hot from embarrassment.]
Y-Yeah. You...you said that...
...I'm sorry. That was...really bad of me to say.
no subject
I sorta DO wonder what it would be like to know my actual parents, but I still love mine, you know?
no subject
...and, um, as long as they love you...why wouldn't you love them?
no subject
Oh, I did! I loved them very much!
no subject
no subject
And then, you know, there's all these people's romance stuff.
no subject
S-So is that...weirder than the pirates or, um, less weird than the pirates? [Chihiro's only read about pirates before.]
no subject
[Trying to explain this as casually as she can].
Nah, weirder than the pirates! I was kinda expecting pirates to be pirates, you know?
no subject
[Trying to process this in terms Chihiro can even vaguely understand...then she remembers some manga she once borrowed off a classmate.]
Lillies.
I guess it's nice that everyone's okay with that, here.
no subject
no subject
I don't really understand it, but everyone in class seems to.
no subject
Wonder what flower that would make me?? Or would I be a weed?
no subject
But she doesn't know what the word would be...and so she makes one up.]
You're...y-you're an orchid.
no subject
So what's your world like anyway?
