It seems I'm always away from home over the holidays. Does time pass back home while we are away? I cannot fathom how that would work.

Easter was...buono. I am glad it was celebrated by such a commensurable amount of people.

...

Where are you Ezio?

I agree. It is hardly inviting or hopeful.

How long have you been here?

voice;

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

Since December.

And it's Easter...so...four months?

I heard some people have been here two years. That seems such a long time.

voice;

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

Yes.

Two years is the longest I've heard as well, though I hear the taking of people from their homes and dispensing them here has been going on for at least three, possibly three and a half years by now.

That's... That's horrible. And no one's been able to find these people and stop them?

voice;

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

Apparently not.

voice;

[princelyrose.livejournal.com]

That's not right. It's cowardly and cruel, to use people for their own game.

voice;

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

No one here is likely to object with you on that point.

There is little anyone can do about it however.

voice;

[princelyrose.livejournal.com]

We still have to try. Oh well...we'll have to make do until we find any sort of opportunity.

voice;

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

Don't think we're not all waiting.

voice;

[princelyrose.livejournal.com]

I don't. But I don't know how to help.

voice;

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

Our biggest concern until the opportunity arises is simply surviving. Helping with that in any way possible takes top priority, wouldn't you think?

voice;

[princelyrose.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I've already told Prydain I'd take watch over Gohl during the day. I need to find something else to help with.

voice;

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

Perhaps I will see you on occasion. As for more--supply runs, hunting, helping the teachers, helping the garden. There are plenty of things to watch out for volunteer work.

voice;

[princelyrose.livejournal.com]

Hime- ...I mean, my friend used to help in the garden, so she's got that. I'll keep a look out. Do you know where I could find a weapon?

...I'm Utena, by the way.

voice;

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

What sort of weapon are you looking for?

Giovanni Auditore da Firenze. My pleasure to meet you, Signorina Utena.

voice;

[princelyrose.livejournal.com]

A sword. The one I had... [...is in my chest?] I didn't arrive with it.

It's nice to meet you, Giovanni. -Oh, is that Italian?

voice;

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

I'll check the inventory (http://community.livejournal.com/playmyace/10901.html). You might have to ask around for something of quality and trade valuables for what you want. Weapons are running a bit scarce . I...personally as a swordsman, I know it might be hard for you to find a person willing to part from any blade they possess.

It is.

voice;

[princelyrose.livejournal.com]

Thank you. You're a swordsman too? I can understand not wanting to do that. I can probably find something else. If anyone has a kendo sword - a wooden one - I'd be fine with that too. I just want to be able to keep people safe.

Do you know Ezio, then?

voice;

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

One of those can be easily made here. There are plenty of miscellaneous supplies for things like that. If there is not already one here lying around--which I think there is, actually...somewhere--then I can procure a fine piece of wood and have one made for you. If you like to stop by the inventory in the high school tomorrow we can discuss the matter further.

[He stifles a laugh.] Ahehn--I would hope so. He is my son after all.

voice;

[princelyrose.livejournal.com]

Really? You can? [She's both surprised and elated.] Thank you so much. I'll see you tomorrow at the inventory.

He's... You're his father? [He had spoken about his father, how happy he was to see him, but that there were some complications about going back home.] He's nice.

voice;

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

You're quite welcome, signorina.

I am glad to hear that; a father always hopes to hear they have raised their child to proper heights.

voice;

[princelyrose.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you two get to be together, even in a place like this. I think it'd be lonely here otherwise.
