Action, On a Sunday

[sun_sun]

[New school! Living on her own! A new and no doubt bizarre world to discover.

After finishing up registration, dropping her stuff off in her (at the time empty) new room, and bidding farewell to her parents, Annie heads out into the bright, shining outdoors (okay, it's 56 degrees and cloudy) to explore her beautiful new home.

No classes today, so there should be people hanging around campus, right? PRIORITY 1 MAKE FRIENDS, PRIORITY 2 TO BE DETERMINED LATER]

[So yeah, general exploratory first-day action mingle. Have at it.]

[ WAIT. WHO SAID THAT? ]

[duckduckdeux]

[ S l o w l y

turns around

to face this girl who spoke to her.

Urp... ]

[sun_sun]

Manhattan, born and raised! This is my first shot at living anywhere else.

[sun_sun]

[Annie reacts by FALLING OVER BACKWARDS what is this, aren't cats supposed to be kind of skittish around strangers]

[sun_sun]

Yo.

[duckduckdeux]

Nothing suspicious here! Ahahahaha, just... talking to myself! Completely normally! Like a normal girl! Which I am!

[partyhats]

If you can cast Magic Missile, please, don't.

[infinitejustice]

But this school only serves grades seven through twelve.

[worldcup]

Let me tell you a secret, onii-chan: I'm in one of those grades.

[worldcup]

I could, but instead I could just scare them off with just this. [ And she closes her eyes, focuses and reveals her magic crest glowing all over her body. ]

[sage_of_aspio]

[This ends with a black cat standing on Annie's chest.]

... Nya.

[partyhats]

Um! Uh!

[ Oh god what is that is she going to hulk out is she going to breathe fire why is it shaped like that holy cow. ]

[worldcup]

See?

[ She opens one eye as her magic crest disappears from her body, smiling. ]

You got scared by it.

[partyhats]

Heck yeah I did, that was some crazy stuff.

[infinitejustice]

I've been to the city a few times, but never any of the boroughs other than Manhattan. My mother says that it has nearly all of the interesting sights in the city.

[infinitejustice]

You are? In spite of being too young for any of them?

[Cue a discerning eye.]

[worldcup]

I am. [ She's definitely serious, and it shows in her voice. ] You shouldn't judge a book by its cover, onii-chan.

[worldcup]

It's not that scary. That was just showing off. [ Because just revealing her crest doesn't do anything for her, tbh. ]

[thirdtenkaistar]

[He jolts, the brochure flying out of his hands before he quickly scrambles to catch it again]

Gurk-!

Ah - I guess s-s-so.

[partyhats]

...still, it looks really impressive.

[infinitejustice]

[This is really getting embarrassing.]

...Er. I -- I'm curious now. How old are you?

[worldcup]

Don't you know it's rude to ask a lady their age?

[sun_sun]

Long shot, but did you ever go to an Italian joint called Annabelle while you were there?

[sun_sun]

Something weird is going on here and I don't know what.

[sun_sun]

[Either she's trying to be secretive here or she has no idea what he's getting at]

Well, you know... playing volleyball, working at my dad's restaurant... pretty much just whatever, I guess.
