[ Waking in a new world was definitely not something Marinette expected to greet her when she opened her eyes. On the plus side, she had her belongings with her - even Tikki, though the kwami seemed very groggy and tired. She reassured Marinette she'd be fine, it wasn't like when she got sick back then, so Marinette let the kwami sleep and devoted her attention to finding out where she was and exactly what was going on. Cut to about...two hours later, when she accesses the network, her mind spinning with the information she'd been given. ]

[ She probably found her way to one of the console cafe's honestly, but she presents herself with a polite smile (if a little bit awkward). ][ She pauses, as something occurs to her. Her first option should have been making her way to that Welcome Center to stay, but she had prioritized getting Tikki some food instinctively. Hopefully it'd help the kwami recover. ]

I'll ... probably be at this cafe for a little bit longer, but I really should have a look around soon too.

[ She'd totally doesn't think anyone from home is here either. She hesitates a moment to consider her topics, and finally settles on one. ]

So, I guess I'll be seeing you all around! If you've got any suggestions of places to take a look at, I'm open to ideas.

[ She needed to get her bearings in this place after all, especially with what's been going on. Once from the ground.. and then once from the air, when Tikki was recovered. Before ending her connection though, she grins and flashes a cheerful V'sign. Peace Out? ... so lame, Marinette. ]

That's going to be the first thing on my agenda. Have you been here for a while yourself?

Nearly a year now. I got here when I was seven, and I'm eight now.

[ A pause. He didn't talk like any 8 year olds she knew so she had thought he was just... short. And kidlet looking. But he was -actually- 8? She was impressed. And felt a little bad if he was here alone. ]

That's... a long time to be away from home... [ She didn't look forward to being away from her loved ones, or her beloved Paris, that long. ]

Is there anyone here you know? I mean, from your home?

[The age he had given had been a lie, but in Conan's opinion it was still far safer for the general public to believe him to be a child. ]

Hmm, it has been a while since I was home. And no, there isn't anyone else here from my home. I live here with a person who decided to let me stay with him.

[ She doesn't bother asking if he misses it. Unless he came from a really bad situation, he must and she didn't want to bring up painful topics. ]

Ah, that's good that there's someone here you can trust - especially with the dangerous things happening here. The cultists and everything..

[Conan makes a quick decision to not mention that he happened to be living with the person responsible for inciting the cultists into the most recent problems. ]

Well, there are lots of good people here. It isn't usually dangerous.

[Unless you had his kind of luck. ]

[ Prrrrrroooobably for the best. Well he obviously trusted the person, but Marinette would still worry a little. ]

Yeah - so far everyone I've talked to are really nice. I guess I just have bad timing. ... not .. that I chose to come here at this time. [ Or at all. ]

[It was Sherlock Holmes. Of course Conan was going to trust him. ]

I don't think anyone picks the times they arrive here.

[ Aaah, yes Marinette could understand a decision like that. After all it wasn't like Sherlock meant for things to happen like that, right? maybe? ]

Oh no, of course not. I'm pretty sure no one asks to show up here - I was just thinking that .. it's a pretty rough time for me to end up here. Still, I'll manage.

Mmm, its been a bad time lately. But it isn't usually like that here.

Well, hopefully those cultists are caught sooner rather than later, so that things can get back to normal for everyone - Foreigners and Kedan alike.

[ She pauses, not sure she should ask - but he, despite his ~~apparent~~ age, seems pretty intelligent so it wasn't too far off to think he could just be one of those super smart kids out there. She had one in her class back home. Though he was older. She'd... better not concern him. ]

Although there's something to be said about the competence of the Law Enforcement, being able to keep things calm ..ish... as it is. That's good~!

There are lots of good people in the police department here. I spend a lot of time there.

I'm glad to hear it. It's probably one of the safest places for you to be, I think.

In fact, I think I'll go have a look around myself right now. It was nice talking to you though.~!
