[rydiaofmist]

[Amidst the snow and cold of Union, a strange woman walks the streets in minimal, what looked to be handmade winter gear, not nearly as affected by it as she has any right to be. She is tall, striking green eyes and even more unusual green hair thrown partially over on shoulder, looking more wild than anything else. Gliding above her is a Pidgey, a band of brightly-colored beads wrapped around its right ankle; and rested on her shoulder is a Goomy, likewise adorned with a necklace of differently-colored beads, part of which seem to have been enveloped within its gooey body. She walks without purpose, simply watching, seemingly mystified by what she saw.

Scouting the outer wall did not prepare her for what was inside. These people lived piled atop one another, and there were so many of them! They dressed strangely, too (what were these things called petticoats, and why did some women insist upon wearing them?), almost completely covered from head to toe, and in such drab colors. This Union, it was a strange place, so very different from what she was used to.]

[At least Eiji understands that much and he wouldn't take any of her suspicion personally.]

Not many people of this city travel as far out as I do. Honestly, I'm only here now for the sake of gathering some supplies and then I'll likely leave.

[rydiaofmist]

Why not?

[Were they being assailed as well? Eren had talked about a strange machine underground that caused them some grief...]

Where are you going?

[underwearfortomorrow]

[He leans back thoughtfully.]

A few reasons, I guess. Some people don't like to be far from home or maybe some are worried about the wilds and what might be in them.

[He shrugs with a smile.]

I don't know yet! There's still a lot to see on the outside, after all. I suppose I'll go where ever that takes me.

[rydiaofmist]

["The wilds and what might be in them," she smirks at that a bit.]

That's silly.

It doesn't bother you to be so far away from home?

[underwearfortomorrow]

[He smiles a bit, too. To her question though, he blinks and rubs the back of his head.]

Home is where you make it. My home isn't here, it isn't really anywhere I guess. It's wherever I am.

[rydiaofmist]

[She pauses, then smiles herself.]

That's an interesting way to look at it.

[underwearfortomorrow]

[He grins wider, nodding.]

All you really need to get by is a little spare change and a clean pair of underwear for tomorrow.

[Hina chirps, chiming in.]

And a little help from your friends.

[Damn right!]

That's home enough for me.

[rydiaofmist]

[An extra pair of what? She laughs.]

You're funny.
