[h2]Konpaku Youmu[/h2] The time spent in the apartment was... curious, to Youmu, to say the least. Her phantom half had returned soon, and now she had spent much of her time trying to figure out how to use a great deal of the strange items around the house. Certainly, some of these could be used for the duties assigned to her by Yuyuko-sama... and the television, that was quite fascinating as well. It was much like the manga she sometimes purchased for Yuyuko-sama, except it was moving and on a screen... and also wasn't manga but the point was it was images made with a purpose. That being said, it didn't take very long for for something to come up. When Leo spoke, the short white-haired girl swiftly approached him, peering at the plasticky device he was holding. "... Those are dragons," she said, flatly. Not the sort of dragon she was most used to seeing, but certainly a type of dragon she knew existed. What were dragons doing flying around so freely in the outside world?! She took a deep breath. "You're right!" declared the girl as she approached the window, "I'm certain that if Yuyuko-sama was here she would say the same thing." She opened the window, before pausing a moment. "... Ah..." Scratching the back of her head, Youmu found herself fretting for a moment. She was certain the boy couldn't fly, so he was limited to moving on the ground, and she wasn't as fast as she was so she would easily lose him in the dust even moving on foot... It didn't take long for the half-phantom to come to a conclusion, even if it was an awkward one she didn't particularly like. Her phantom half drifted towards him. "... You can..." she hesitated, "... Ride it. But don't squeeze too hard." This was already going to be awkward, she didn't need to be bearhugged while trying to fly. But it was the only way she could think of to get Leo there quickly. [@PKMNB0Y] [hr] [h2]Vita[/h2] "[i]I want to get back to Hayate as soon as possible, you don't have to ask me twice,[/i]" was Vita's swift response as she sat back in the bath. She'd guessed Nanoha was already trying to work beforehand, in any case. The other girl was almost always trying to work at getting something done, so it was no surprise. A large scale dimension transfer spell had to be both the explanation and the solution. What else could cause something like this, after all? But what was with this universe? Having all that creepy insight into their lives... if they really were spying on Hayate, Vita would never forgive them for it. Regardless, the redheaded girl was surprised to see that Nanoha had been given the same room as herself, but it wasn't exactly negative at all. It was better then having no-one she knew around, after all, but at the same time it wasn't like having Hayate around either. After finishing off her bath, Vita exited the bathroom and dried off before getting dressed, taking some time to raid the fridge while she was here. She might as well, after all. She was a growing girl! Not that Vita take it kindly if anyone pointed out the fact that she did not, in fact, grow at all. Some time later a phonecall arrived, alerting them to some sort of incident. It [i]was[/i] part of their agreement with this world's Japanese government, after all, and it's likely the TSAB too would have wanted them to respond to any strange activity as well. So it wasn't much longer before Vita activated her knight's armor and took flight, en route to the location. What was discovered on arrival was... unusual. It was chunky piles of black dust that smelled like coal. Already present was the blue-haired girl from earlier. "What [i]is[/i] this stuff?" she asked, approaching one of the piles. Was it just big piles of carbon? Why would that be here? It didn't make much sense to the small girl. [@KoL][@PKMNB0Y]
