We're not in the Kasugayama Bomb Shelter anymore, Dorothy.

[positively]

Oh, my-- it sure is dark in here, isn't it? It's a good thing I've got a flashlight.

Is anybody else lost down here? Stay where you are and call out, and I'll come to you with the light. I've learned my lesson about letting people run into cave walls in the dark!

Interesting. I did not expect flinging myself off a cliff to put me in some other world entirely.

[extends her sword-hand] I am Celes Chere, formerly a General of the Empire, now one of the Returners.

[fledglingchosen]

Another other world...?

[blinks, takes Celes' hand, starts smiling almost automatically (despite that, she means it - yay new people!)]

Nice to meet you! I'm Colette! I'm... I don't know who the Returners are, but I'm sure they're good people. Maybe we can be friends!

It is a very long story.

So. Are there others in this cave? I was planning reconnaissance before I encountered you.

[fledglingchosen]

I'm not sure. I mean, I've come here with Lloyd so he should be here, but I... I must have wandered around for a while before I heard you, and I haven't seen anyone yet. But now there's two of us at least!

[ooc: Now I'm not sure how to handle meeting anyone in Colette's own thread. Hmmmm. Could anyone tell me what the etiquette is on this? ^^;;]

[ice_and_steel]

[ooc: no idea.]

[Well, her torch is certainly a superior tool to my attempting to keep Fire under control for light. I should go first; she doesn't look like a soldier.]

Which direction did you come from? If you have encountered no one on your way here, we should try a different part of this cave.

[Caves have treasures, don't they? I would do better not to think of that.]
