If I ever imply France in an RP where, for example, the context for calling something "French Toast" doesn't exist, you can know that's not me.

Bio

I'm a generally chill gomboblin that can be kinda particular. I grew up with plenty of electronics and video games, mostly with games like Final Fantasy, Zelda, and StarCraft. Lots of Nintendo. Dark Cloud is pretty sick. That's a lot of variety, and I do like to play a lot of different games. I like to blend magic and technology in my writing, bringing fantasy into space and sci-fi.

Magic in space is something that I find isn't done very much. Airships and spaceships could make for some cool centerpieces. Skies of Arcadia did a fantastic job of this. Perhaps that's not in space, exactly, but it's pretty close. Some of those ships may as well be space ships.

Trinity STratos

War songs? But, before that, Karn asked her a question. Finished tuning her violin, Trinity called another instrument, replacing the one she just tuned. A viola, and then a cello, and finally her favored harp. The rest were already well tuned fairly in tune, so they didn't take her long. With a flick of her wrist, she summoned the other three at once, and touched her fingers to the strings. "Check it out, Sasha. I've been practicing. I don't have to start them by hand anymore." She starts by playing a melody once through before the other strings join her.

After she plays it once through, she stops playing on her harp, but the other three instruments continue. "Are war songs very common in Edolas? Are there a lot of marches?"
Trinity Stratos

They really were like night and day. She couldn't imagine their Karn in a brothel, but this new one seemed like she might. She sounded like she just wanted to eat, so it was Sasha's suggestion to take. "Alright, well. Sasha, lead the way." The musician looked over to their guild mate, smiling softly. After another moment, the young lady conjures a violin and begins tuning it. "What's the atmosphere of the place, Sasha? Maybe I'll play some music for us while we eat."

"Karn, do you know any melodies or songs from your home? You could teach me one."
Trinity Stratos

"People, too. I've seen Karn transform into me, once. Not long after we met, now that I think about it." Trinity looked between Karn and Penny, and then the two seemed to go their own ways, with their own business. Well. She turned from watching Karn when Sasha spoke, replying, "I was going to. Though, perhaps it would be better to simply go with her, instead. Would you happen to know any good restaurants around here, Sasha? I don't, but we should treat her. You pick the restaurant, I'll pay. And don't worry, I've got it covered." She'd recently been given a considerable satchel of gold coin, after all. She had it tucked away.

"C'mon." Trinity jogged a little to catch up with Karn^2, walking next to her. "You're not going to lose us that easily. What kind of food do you like? Sasha might know a place."
Penny and Sasha conveniently ignore the diversion, I see.
"I've always enjoyed breakfast at any time of day, myself. If not, then I'm not particular." Cliff fans the fire carefully when the wind dies, and shields it when the wind kicks up. Frouline return and lays her last bundle on the pile. Cliff looks at her and considers something. He separates a portion of the fuel and looks at Frouline. "Frouline, could you produce a mist for me?" The pokemon looks uncertain for a moment before giving it a shot. At first it's just a small stream of water, but with a little bit of effort, the stream slowly picks up pressure and changes shape. "Hmm... Try adding breath instead of pressure." Frouline stops and looks at him, thinking for a second about what she's doing and then trying it out. The stream sputters and struggles, with mild success but nothing that could really be called a mist. "Almost..." After a little bit, Frouline seems a little tuckered from the extra effort, and Cliff smiles. "That's alright. You can rest."

Cliff turns back to the fire, looking up at Rowan. "Just hurry up, before we need more wood."
Trinity: Okay, that's enough arguing personal demons at each other in the middle of the street, let's go eat.
Trinity Stratos

Trinity didn't really understand what they were arguing about at first. When the gravity of their personal argument caught up with her, she felt a little at-odds listening in. It seemed like rather private personal details, but she couldn't just back out. She had to work to help the Karns, too. And what a sticky situation that was. Three obvious options, each one sucks. Two of the three being Karn eats Karn, winner lives here. Or gets sent through when another Edolas portal opens, apparently, but then would the Edolas folks even remember her? Their final option sounded hazardous. It was only buying time.

So, eKarn wants to go home, but is resolved not to. They didn't even have a merciful option, either. To have your soul consumed... But, there must be something they could do. If they could run into Annalise, she might have an idea, or maybe Fleo? She was the one who caught Annalise's soul in her hat, but that was probably just a fluke...

Arguing in the middle of the rain was only going to get them sick. "Well, alright. I've learned what I need to know. I'm sorry to have been so suspicious of you, Ka... hm." She gazed at Karn thoughtfully before shrugging and continuing, "Karn. Caution was all it was. However, now that we have an understanding, let us go to lunch." She looked at Penny and Sasha briefly. It was time they started to make their guest welcome, now that the situation was understood. To be stuck in a foreign land, and in such a situation. Dreadful.
Uhg, did I really make her say that? No wonder I didn't get a response.
"Thank you, Melody. I'm just fortunate that there's wood this dry here. I wonder how long it's been since it rained?"

"That's alright, Niesha. I don't have a fire type, so need to be prepared." He sits with the fire, maintaining a low burn until they're ready to begin cooking. They didn't have much fuel to work with in the first place, so they'd have to manage what they had. Frouline brings him more and he stops her to pet her for a moment. He pats her on the back after a moment and sends her off, "alright, one more load. I think I'll have enough then."
Trinity Stratos

"If you're a girl, then you should understand why we're upset!" She sighs softly, chiding herself inwardly. She shouldn't lash out like that. "Sorry. You must miss your body."

So, Karn actually as a woman, instead of just looking and acting like one? Only, this personality was strange. Well... that made a certain kind of sense, she supposed. It was the Edo-Karn's soul that was in Karn's body right now. Hey, now that she thought about it, she had a little experience with soul binding, didn't she? Well, Fleo did. Since Jarvis was nowhere to be- wait a minute. Duh. She'd have to try the communication lacrima.

Later. She looks Karn over thoughtfully, silent for just a moment before she speaks. "I suppose you want to go home?"
