I'm sorry I don't understand the situation, but if there's anything I can do to help then please let me do it.

My name is Estellise. I come from Terca Lumieres. I'm aware this isn't the time for us to be talking amongst ourselves calmly.

You're all in a terrible predicament and I truly hope these conditions don't last too long.

Please, try to hang in there everyone!

[ The sound of clanging and metal hitting various things with a powerful impact can be heard from down the hall. However, the noise gets louder and louder as Nena continues to stroll towards Estellise. And it gets more frequent.

Nena's clumsy arm wields itself back and forth, smashing into everything possible! Dry wall, "family portraits", the doorway, and even the electrical wiring inside the home comes flying out with an uncoordinated swing with Nena's arm.

Eventually, she trips into the living room and looks at the new pretty lady with a level of horror that is usually reserved for Cthulhu or soul suckers. A makeshift metallic forearm replaced her arm and the skin above it looks terribly infected. The skin is starting to peel away leaving raw, unprotected flesh which was slowly drying up and making her arm look like a zombie. ]

Who are you?!

[wizardoftheweek]

If you don't understand the situation, then isn't it a bit naive to think you can help?

[extremestars]

[Admittedly that sound startles Estelle. Staring at Nena in her new form shocks her almost immediately.]

W-Who me?

[She didn't know how to respond because it was so sudden. More importantly where was she?

Estelle guesses it should be alright to tell this person.]

I'm Estellise. Is something disturbing you?

[She asks this after noticing the zombie like arm.]

[extremestars]

I suppose it is naive.

I'm sorry.

[wizardoftheweek]

Don't bother apologizing. After all, it's not exactly a bad thing to want to help, naive as it may be. Still, you should be asking what the situation is if you really want to help. That way you'll understand the specifics of the matter and just where your skills, if any, can be applied.

[ Nena's arm remains at her side, though it seems to drag down her upper body a noticeable amount. When she hears her name, Nena's expression is vaguely pleased that she managed to get an answer out of her before souring out of the discovery that she has a new question to ask. ]

Yeah! Why are you in Nena's house?! I don't remember ever meeting you!

[captainofthe10th]

You are most kind, mamzel.

[extremestars]

I should have done that first. What was I thinking?

[Um...]

You're very knowledgeable, aren't you?

[wizardoftheweek]

So I am often told.

[extremestars]

[Oh shit.]

I don't know. I just came here um, I don't remember meeting you either.

I'm terribly sorry for intruding on you. Please forgive me.

[phone]

[extremestars]

I haven't done anything kind yet.

I'm just confused.

Is there something I should be doing?

[extremestars]

I think it's amazing that you're so knowledgeable and intelligent. It'll help a lot of people some day.

[captainofthe10th]

For the moment, it would be best for you to stay indoors and safe. There is great danger afoot in the town at present.

[wizardoftheweek]

Yes... well... That's nice of you.

[adropofjupiter]

...you're Rita's friend. Right?

[bridezilla]

You just came here?! Why'd you choose my house?

[ She's not going to forgive just yet! Maybe she chose the house because it's pink! ] Is it because this house is pink?!

Phone

[extremestars]

Of course I am. She's a dear friend of mine from back home.

Is she around here by any chance?

Phone

[adropofjupiter]

She was for a couple months... and then she disappeared. Did you ever get the letter she sent you?

[phone]

[extremestars]

I'll do just that.

Danger? What sort of danger? Will you be okay ?

Phone

[extremestars]

I'm glad she managed to find a way out on her own.

Letter? I don't believe so. This is the first I've heard of it.

I apologize.

[extremestars]

I don't think it being pink has anything to do with it.

I apologize.

Maybe there was some huge misunderstanding. I'm not really sure what's going on.

Could you explain the situation for me?

[bridezilla]

If pink had nothing to do with it...

[ She looks serious and thoughtful as she pauses. She then looks up, with her face completely judgmental over the remark. ]

Well, I can't really explain the situation if I don't know what it is. [ She sounds a bit irritated, though it's significantly less than what Estelle has previously seen from the girl. ]

Phone

[adropofjupiter]

Damn.

[extremestars]

Well, for one thing both of our hairs are pink.

That's kind of interesting.

[welp.]

You mean you're confused too? I'm sorry to hear that.

Phone

[extremestars]

Was it dreadfully important?

Knowing Rita she had her reasons for doing such a thing. I do hope she's okay.
