Strong in the Real Way

Rank: Citizen Housing: R-4 Abilities/Weapon: A wooden spear and the ability to heal via her gem

[8bithope]

The woman in front of her was tall, and elegant. It was surprising, really. She’d never met someone who looked like her—then again, she hadn’t met many people. But the impression she gave off was like a ballerina, graceful and talented.

What interested her most was the gem placed upon her forehead, and she tilted her head in wonder at it.

"Excuse me," she started, attempting to get the woman’s attention, "what kind of gem is that on your forehead…?"

[danceswithspears]

"Ah, it happens to be a pearl! As is my name as well." Was the gem in her forehead named after her, or was it the other way around? The thought sent her into a momentary identity crisis. 

She reached up a touched a slender finger to said gem, causing it to glow faintly. Looking down at the girl in front of her, she noticed some sort of decoration in her hair. 

"Is that some sort of spaceship in your hair? Do you know what model it is?"

It wasn’t weird to be practicing Tai Chi in the middle of a park, was it? No, of course it wasn’t. Kids were too busy playing soccer or on the swings to run up to him and ask silly questions like ‘do you know karate?!’, and Ren was eternally grateful that that had yet to happen. His movements which much smoother now than when he was in the midst of a battle; there was no reason to rush, to jerk, to improvise. In the quiet tranquility, he carved out a path for his limbs and they clung to the pattern like vines upon a lattice.

He spun around and flushed. Oh. This park really wasn’t big enough for any sort of privacy. Ren dropped his arms before his accidental audience. One hand grabbed for the other in a nervous gesture. He cleared his throat. 'I should get a gym membership and just book a room…' But the fresh air suited him better, and he didn’t want to spend money where it wasn’t needed. He could bear the mortification at being caught practicing. 

"I’m not— I was… It’s not meant for fighting." The movements were more spiritual than anything. Meditative. And yet, here he was, startled into a word-vomit panic instead of relaxing and emptying his mind. Poor awkward child.

A brisk walk was one of the easiest ways to clear one's head, at least in Pearl's mind it made sense. She had been told of a nearby park, a relatively safe one, and she deemed it a worthwhile endeavor to seek it out. Things had began to cool down in the city, and as she embarked, Pearl made the assumption that the park would be mostly empty, and on arrival she was pleasantly surprised.

Pearl stood still as she began to watch, what appeared to be, a young man practicing some sort of martial art. He's very graceful, I'll give him that. But as soon enough her presence was noticed, it was clear the boy was nervous. Had she surprised him?

"There's no need to be nervous, I was simply admiring your movements." 

She gestured toward herself with a delicate hand. "I am Pearl, and what do you call what you were just doing? Human martial arts are simply fascinating."  Her own fighting style seemed to be unique in and of itself, maybe she and this boy could watch and learn from one another.

Strangers in a Strange Land || [event thread; Pearl, Fran, Blake Belladona]

Twenty feet. 609.6 centimeters. That was the furthest distance he could stray from the group if he so chose. He was bound emotionally, mentally, physically, to these people he had never met. How had they ended up bound? Were they all in the same place in the supermarket when they were taken? Did they pass each other on the street? Why was this group chosen?

Whatever the reason was, they were in this together and he had to do his part to make sure he and his comrades made it to the center alive, or, in the worst case, die trying.

Izuru turned to his group mates, feeling a mix of his and their apprehension and confusion through the bond. It was a short while before anyone spoke.

"…Kamukura Izuru. And who are the rest of you…?"

It was as though someone had tied a thick rope around her midsection, as though some sort of connection had been rooted in her body. Pearl felt an unexplainable exhaustion, an emotional cocktail of everything her and the people she was connected to were feeling.

She dusted herself off and stood up straight, looking at the three people bound to her. One mop of hair, and two... animals? No, but people with the ears of an animal. Upon hearing a voice Pearl focused all of her attention on it's source.

Introductions seemed to be in order. 

"I'm Pearl. I cannot say it is nice to meet you under these circumstances, but here we are. Have any of you been here before perhaps?"

Hello friends!!

This is mod oo4 with a quick meme day reminder:

Make sure to spread the love!!

Everyone who reblogs memes would like to participate in meme day, but it’s hard when no one sends them asks!  It’s always fun to send asks to your close friends, but try to send a few to characters that you like, or that interest you, even if you’ve never interacted with them!  Send asks to characters you don’t know, or characters you see causing a splash on the dash all the time!  If someone reblogged a meme but isn’t answering any asks, assume they haven’t gotten one and send them something, regardless of how popular or quiet they appear on the dash!

Basically what I’m trying to say is spread your horizons and send some asks to someone new!  You never know what interesting thing you could learn about a character, or what kind of fun interaction your muses can have!

Enjoy your Sunday everyone!!

❤ Hips Don't Lie {closed|pearl}

     Nowi loved to dance. She could spend hours frolicking around to the beat, elbows swinging and toes tapping. So when she encountered an ad for ballet lessons, of course she’d count on going.

     However, the designated studio was not at all what she pictured when walking in. It was empty, more or less abandoned with illegible graffiti splashed here and there. She thinks maybe the teacher will show up at any time, but ten minutes of later results in nothing. Just as the disheartened manakete is about to leave, footsteps and the opening of a door cause her to perk up.

     Someone tall with complexion of porcelain walks into the room — was that the teacher? Or perhaps someone else who had seen the ad?… A lost citizen, perhaps? Whichever the case, she latches on to company, walking up to her.

     "Hello!"

     "Are you here for the ballette?" She means ballet, but having never seen the word in her life, she pronounces the t loud and clearly incorrect.

On one of the many days where her only was to pass the time was to cautiously explore, Pearl had come upon one of the many abandoned buildings in the city. The wide, mirrored room brought on an idea, to combat her boredom and need for something to do. The fliers she'd posted were simple, offering ballet lessons, as sword fighting lessons were currently out of the question.

The day that she had designated as "class starting", she opened the door to her makeshift studio to find her first (and seemingly only) pupil waiting for her. In front of her stands what seems to be a young girl, clearly excited and ready to go.

"Ah! Yes I am indeed here for the ballet, here to teach it in fact. I am Pearl, and I will be instructing you. Also, the 't' is silent, proper pronunciation will be the first step in this process, I suppose." 

It was evident that this would be quite the learning experience, as the girl hadn't even known how to say the word. But, Pearl was up to the challenge and always appreciated a fresh, young mind to teach.

"Now have you had previous experience with any form of dance?"
