♫ One Chord ♫
[Action take 1: Near the Gates]
[It had all been a blur, really. She'd lost track of time wandering through the wilderness and if it hadn't been for the friend she made (The small fluffy mareep trotting at her heels) she might have been in real trouble. But she'd managed to stumble into a merchant caravan that offered to take her in in return for a few chores and she'd gotten her passage into Union.]
[Union was ...well. It was a lot. It was a lot mostly because she didn't know what to expect and she didn't have much of a frame of reference. Still, even as she looked up at what was left of the tall spires, and the constant construction littering the ones that looked damage, there was something beautiful about it. Peaceful even.]
[It struck her as something inherently unfamiliar.]
[Immigration was stressful and scary and she didn't know what she was supposed to do. She'd bumbled her way through until they released her into the city with some information on getting settled and she was left to her devices.]
[She was tired, dirty, ragged looking and scared but somehow, looking at the city from inside, up at the towers and the people walking by, she felt at ease. Maybe Mr. Berry had been right. Maybe this place really could help her.]
Isn't this place incredible, Pyuru?
[The sheep Reep!s at her in agreement.]
I wonder what I should do now...
[To that, the pokemon had no response. Good question.]
[Action take 2: Near Ninetales Vale.]
[After some exploring, Cyan decided the best course of action would be to work up some money. Food and a place to sleep were the priority. Mostly food. She and her friend were starting to get hungry and she didn't want to impose on the merchants she came in with any longer.]
[So Cyan is sitting on a bench with her guitar. The case for it is on the ground and open with a small sign that says "Thank you for listening!". She's been playing for at least an hour by now. It's funny that she couldn't tell you a thing about where she was from, but music and songs, they always came right to her. She couldn't tell you where or how she learned them, but it was like her heart wouldn't let her forget.]
[She's not bad at all, either. And she plays with a smile despite the pretty poor state she's in.]
[Video: Warp band.]
[And of course a little later on when she's managed to have a meal. She's sitting outside, playing with the warp band. When the feed comes on she looks startled, black cat ears standing straight up.]
--Think it's working! U-Um! [Oh no, just a little stage fright.]
Hello... um! I was told I could talk to people on this so I guess that's what I'm doing...
[This was going terribly. She turns bright red and her ears fold back. Pyuru decides to take things into her own hands by showing off a sparkly electric move! Yeah!! Hello Union we are here!!]
[It's too bad that it also hits Cyan which causes her hair to poof right up]
--Kyaah!!
[In her distress, she drops the warp band and the static electricity probably shorts it out. It goes dead as the Mareep worriedly tries to apologize.]

[Well, that was definitely something. Who was that? Another new person? Will she come back onto the network eventually or did her band get wrecked forever?
Maka just waits for a moment before actually trying to speak.]
Hello? Are you okay?
[video]
I-I'm fine! Sorry! Pyuru got really excited and sometimes she just ...sparks a lot...
[video]
[Get hurt? It seems a little late for that.]
So...so...you're new here, right? Do you need help settling in?
[video]
[Pyuru bleats apologetically.]
I am! The city is really pretty. Um.
[Help settling in. That gives her something to think about.]
I'm actually ...wondering if you know of a place that might be hiring?
[video]
[video]
Oh- I'll have to look for those, then! I'm ..well. I haven't had a job before but I'm sure I could handle something like cleaning or making beds. Thank you!
