[ When the feed starts, Sheena's relaxed posture and demeanor reveal that doing something like this isn't entirely new for her. Even though she's on a turtle--which is actually "normal" compared to where she's been the past several years. ]

Hello, everyone! My name's Sheena Fujibayashi. I just arrived here in the city a couple of weeks ago and am looking for a job.

[ Time for the info. ]

My experience is kind of varied, but first and foremost, I'm a ninja. But, I also have experience in owning and operating a Tea House, a Noodle Restaurant, and a Dojo.

[ Translation: She has a lot of skills, and can beat up people if needed. ]

If anyone has any questions [ or job offers ], don't hesitate to get in touch with me.

Thanks.

[ Okay. So she may be used to using a network, but she's not too good at selling herself with words. ]

There are plenty of places around, I'm sure you'll get something. Good luck, all the same.

And welcome to Keelai. Are you settling in okay?

Thanks, I appreciate it.

[ She chuckles softly. ]

Thank again. And yeah, I am. I'm staying with a friend of mine--someone I know from home. That makes it a lot easier.

Not like the last place I was.

That's good. Having friends here makes all the difference.

[But wait. ]

The last place you were? Do you mean your home?

Yeah, it does.

[ She shakes her head. ]

No. This isn't the first time I've been brought to a whole other world. It is the first time I was brought to a turtle, though.

[This is...worryingly new. ]

You've been taken to another world before this? I didn't even know what was possible.

...I'm sorry, you must really be missing home.

[ She can relate to the worryingly part. Because well... "Home" would be a good place to go to. ]

Yeah. [ She chuckles. ] Before that happened, I had no idea I could go to another world without some sort of machine. And now it's happened again.

[ She sighs and shakes her head. ]

You don't have to apologize! I mean, I am missing home, and have for a long time, but the memories of my friends keep me connected to it. [ There's another reason, too, but she has no idea if things work the same here. If time is frozen back on their world until they return. ]

That's some...real bad luck, though. What was the other place like? Was it anything like Tu Vishan?

[Hard to match a giant floating turtle, really. At her comment, a soft smile crosses his face.]

Qui, you're right. So long as we remember the people we love, we're never really that far from them.

That is an understatement. But, compared to that place, Tu Vishan is a paradise and relatively normal.

[ She'll give him some details, but not a lot, if he wants. No one should have to hear about Atia. ]

"Qui"? What language is that? [ It sounds familiar, but she can't place it.

She gives him a smile. ] Spoken like someone who's used to doing that himself. Am I right?

Oh, I'm sorry you had to deal with that, then. I can understand why you wouldn't want to talk about it.

[He'll be a gentleman and not push about it. ]

French. That's where I'm from...France, I mean. [A pause, because not everyone is from the same planet, geez, Agreste. ] It's a country on Earth.

I do the best I can.

[ She appreciates that. Although... ]

I'm glad I get to remember those friendships, too.

[ Considering some she doubted she'd ever see again. ]

One of those friends spoke French! And there was a French restaurant we went to! [ She's happy to find something familiar. ] I never did quite get to try to make too many French dishes, though.

[ Her smile softens. ]

That's all anyone can ask, right?

[He chuckles softly at that. ]

Really? That's kinda neat. If you ever get a chance, I recommend trying Pot-au-feu, it's pretty simple from what I hear and it's really delicious. Especially in the winter.

Very true. Anyway, if there's anuthing you want to know about Keeliai, I'll help how I can. I've been living here for a few months now, so I have a good lay of the land.

Yeah, people from all over were there--different worlds, different times. Sometimes friends from home would be there, sometimes people who had been there came back. Some remembered, while some didn't. [ She had been one of the latter ones. ]

Yep! And uh, I will. On one condition. What is Pot-au-feu? [ Thanks to her being around someone who spoke the language, her pronunciation is fairly close when she repeats the word. ] Sounds like it has to do with potatoes. [ Okay, she can say the word...she just can't translate. ]

You do? [ She looks around to make sure a certain someone hasn't suddenly appeared before speaking. ] Can you tell me the best place to go shopping for food is? I'm dying to cook something.

Sounds a lot like here, then. I didn't even think other worlds like this were possible. Maybe there's even more kidnapping worlds out there.

[That's not a comforting thought. Still, he's impressed with her pronunciation, much better than the endless stream of tourists who come to Paris. ]

Basically? It's fancy beef stew. Just beef and root vegetables. No potatoes, really. More...celery and carrots, things like that.

I'd recommend the marketplaces here. You have to haggle, and be careful the vendors don't take a fancy to any jewellery you have they'll try to barter for instead. But the freshest food comes through there. If you're after fish the best place is the water district, though.
