He was modest, at least, and not full of bravado and confidence. It was a nice change of pace in companion compared to one of the first, most confident men she'd met when she got here. He was flexible, too. She smiled at him, bright and shiny, nodding, "I like that, you seem nice." "That's a...

"That sounds good!" She offered, excitedly, at the prospect of meeting up with Alice with her new friend. Alice had invited her to live with her, so they were a bit more than just friends now, but all the same she wanted to introduce the two and see if they hit it off as well. She forgot to...

The compliment to her smile caught her a little by surprise, and so she blushed into a nervous grin, "Thanks." Then, clearing her throat, she offered her hand and found that the handshake was nice. Crimson Ruby was a bit of a gimmicky name, but she supposed she wasn't much better. This game was...

"That's really sweet of you to say, but don't worry about being inept or anything like that. This has been a wonderful interaction, really!" She tried to pep her up and realize that they were both just being a little hard on themselves, "We'll learn how to overcome our issues together, I'm sure...

His confidence and bravado earned him a giggle that implied her newly formed slight crush, amplified by his choice of words like 'smash' and 'packing'. He was fun. As he started to move she followed after him, keeping to his trail exactly and trying to limit their tracks. It was something she'd...

"Yea! Helping someone in need like a hero might, don't you think? Heroes always think that more people should step in when someone needs help. That's because they aren't bystanders, affected by the bystander effect. They're heroes." Anyone could be a hero, really, whether it was a mom drawing on...

"The capital, yea, that'd be a good idea." One that she should have thought of, but didn't. Either way, it wasn't a big deal. She needed the gold to be able to buy such things anyway, and that was why she was doing this. "I kind of based my character idea on a class from another game, but I...

Already off-guard by her own apology, she nearly collapsed as she felt hands around her waist. She turned red, feeling heat in her cheeks as she had a sudden flood of impure thoughts enough to make her head nearly steam from her brain frying. It put a funny feeling in her stomach, one that she...

He was pleasant enough, fortunately. She always worried when taking jobs that would involve others that it would turn sour or they wouldn't be nice, like Bruce had been to her the second time she logged in. Or like Onyx! Gosh, she still thought about Onyx more often than she might care to admit...

Juniper immediately felt bad about calling them strangers still, "N-no! I'm sorry, I'm just...I'm kind of a mess, if you can't tell. I'm still learning where the line is between acquaintances and friends, and I hate to presume. It's awkward if I said we were friends and you didn't agree, you...

Juni felt proud that she'd guessed the masteries correctly, happy to be learning something and learning it well. It was a little weird to be proud to be well-versed in a game, she thought, but she was happier here than she'd ever been and she wanted to become a guide, maybe, for other newbies...

"I suppose that is true. So training in this case is kind of for desensitizing, right?" She didn't really like the way she phrased that, but it was true all the same. That was the same for the military, where boot camp was meant to put you through hell so that when you encountered hell on the...

"Really? You made what you were wearing? That's amazing! I can understand why your mom says you should be a designer. But if you enjoy being a scientist, then I'm happy for you and hope that you succeed in your dreams!" She said enthusiastically, tail wagging all the while. Seeing her...

Another few seconds, another spell half-cast. It was so satisfying watching the magical effects of the game swirl around her hands and manifest in different ways depending on how her hands moved. It all felt so real, she could practically feel the magic coursing through her anytime she cast a...

Not interested in speculation. Scientific. Juniper found this an appealing trait, curiosity now flickering over her face again as she tilted her head, tail wagging behind her. Her expression became more grim as she realized the truth about the game. "Oh..." Was all she had to offer at the...

"I won't always be there to stop you." The words rung in her head, immediately realizing that it might be better if she were. "I'll do my best to listen and learn." She nodded, tail wagging and ears happy again. She nodded again at the insistence that she tell her new companion of any...

. Juniper had done okay in school, but certainly was never the brightest of the bunch. She thought she understood what she was saying, but there was often a shadow of doubt in the back of her mind. As she thought about it, she reached towards one of the flowers they were picking now only for...

. "What is it you have in mind anyway?" A question bubbled up out of curiosity as Onyx mentioned the potential purpose for gathering ingredients. She looked at the page for Dreadnaught's Blossom next, identifying it quickly with eyes like scanners and then began darting around to find it. It...

. "Hm? Oh!" Embarrassed that she got caught, and didn't even realize she got caught for a moment, she blushed deeply at the question. Even if it was rhetorical, the answer was yes, and it was provided in the form of a sheepish nod. Not long after, a request to join her party came up and...

. Instead of clarification, all she earned for her question was more confusion. Great, thanks. At least she got the reason for her gathering them and then got her name. That was good, right? Oh, and she invited her to go help pick more! A cute girl immediately dragging her along on a personal...
