Queen of Hearts

[Kyoko is lounging on the couch in her shared house with Sayaka, who is currently out for a bit. She looks absolutely bored. She yawns, stretches, and then moves in closer to the camera.]

Hey. Anyone want to go out exploring the wild areas? I'm feeling really restless.

...Don't let Sayaka know I'm planning on this, though, okay? She'd get worried about me.

....And I kinda want to get some of that dirt and make a gift for her, but I want it to be a surprise, okay?

[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?))

005 - accidental video

[This is Kyoko, laying on her bed still in pajamas, staring blankly at the wall. The vine has decided that what she's saying to herself is something the whole Garden should hear.]

...You know, I wonder sometimes if this place is just a dream. The paradise my mind created for me to shield myself from reality, or...something like that. I don't deserve this happiness, this freedom. It's too good to be true, anyway. Maybe one day I'll wake up, and everything will be like it was again. Fighting, witches, and...and me all alone. Knowing Kyubey, even death can't truly end this. That would be too easy, wouldn't it?

First strike

[There's a sigh emanating from the other end of the vine.] ...I'm talking into a plant. Great. Wish I could say this was the weirdest thing that ever happened to me, but what the fuck ever.

May as well just make myself comfortable until I wake up or the cavalry gets here. Whichever comes first. You guys have fun with your whole hippie commune thing you got going here.

[There's one more annoyed grunt, and the distinct sound of a flower being crushed before cutting out. She's not in the most talkative mood, clearly.]
