One Knitted Sweater

A. Phone. Early Morning. Unfiltered.

[It's not that Rose is an early bird. She's a rather regular bird, if the metaphor lends itself for such uses, but she wasn't supposed to be sleeping. Dave was supposed to be sleeping and waking up later, as per the effect she expected to cause after that yarn ball throw. Still, she was the one waking up in a place that was most definitely not Derse, unless they had suddenly populated the place with a completely outdated series of identical suburban houses.]

I seem to find myself in quite the predicament. On one hand, I have the imperative necessity to return to my duties, as they played a rather critical role yet to be defined. In the other hand, though, I am called by the Great Outdoors, as this new locale pleads to be explored.

But before I devote myself to that enterprise I would like to ask for further instructions regarding the nature of this place.

[For the record, Rose sounds as if someone had done something of the magnitude of using all the sugar in the kitchen, not displacing her through time and space. She's really playing it cool here.]

B. Streets of Mayfield, Afternoon.

[And so Rose traverses the streets, sometimes silent, sometimes barely humming a tune, but always keeping an eye on everything. She doesn't even bother with the drones, leave alone the adult ones, but rather focus on those that have a certain shine in their eyes the canon fodder lacks. To them she gives more examination time, although she won't really engage in a conversation by her own initiative. Not until she has managed to get the upper hand in this place. Or in its default, to have lost her patience, whatever happens first.

But yeah she's wandering around, go bother her.
]

C. Mayfield High. Fashionably Late.

[Like the coolest teenager, Rose arrives late to school...and goes directly to the yard, where she sits somewhere calm and with shade. The day has been too exciting -or rather, mildly exciting- to enter the classrooms; she'll have time to do that later. But it's a good time to have a chat with her fellow classmates, perhaps?]

*Flush aside, her expression falls slightly at the mention of the Green Sun.* I can think of no reason to not do it, but similarly I can think of no particular reason to do it, either.

*Kanaya hesitates.* I would not want you to have to perish to finally meet in person like this, either ...but I am not sure I want to know what intentions you had with the Green Sun. Or rather, I am curious and do want to know, but am concerned by the answer you would give.

Didn't realize I was being tested. I'll try harder next time, how 'bout that.

[[Aaron dug around his book bag and pulled out a rumpled pamphlet. (http://buildstherobots.livejournal.com/12857.html) Handing it over to her.]]

They're pretty weird, the classes that is. The done ones are propaganda and basic things. Nothing too hard.

The non drone ones... well that depends on the teacher. Some are quirky.

Millie's been here a long, looooong time. It's a really weird place!

Should prove to be... what?

[[Okay, she lost him.]]

Not the exact number, no. And about once a month that'll change.

Not the first time i've ever heard that over the course of my life.

I told you that those plans were dangerous, Rose... *And so was she.* There is no way to determine the result of drastically breaking the parameters like that. You may inadvertently harm far more than you seek to protect.

*Kanaya looks very serious, but then her expression softens.* But... I do not think that conversation is one we need to have here, in this place and at this moment.

I was only exploring.

[As luck would have it, the only seat Feferi could find in the cafeteria? Right across from Rose.]

Hi! Would you like some company?

How can it be a critical role if it is not defined?

No it's fine, having more information from a lot of people helps.

[Mika rubs her eyes and tries not to yawn into the phone. Especially since her yawns tend to have a tiny bit of a whine in them first thing in the morning.]

You just got here, right? What do you want to know? I'll admit, I'm still new around here, but I'll give you what I know anyway if you want it.

This is not my doing in the least, nor is it my style to imprison young girls without purpose. At least give me some credit where it is due. Do you want my help, yes or no?

No, I would not. Perhaps you can explain to me some of your human constructs.

*And here, Kanaya looks away, almost shyly.* I... had always wanted to meet with you in person, Rose Lalonde.
