[Fighting and weather chaos seem to have given way to...new arrival chaos instead. Unless someone shows up from her world, Raven'll be steering clear of the New Feathers given half an opportunity, at least until they know more about what's going on.

No, today she's taking steps toward all the things she made tentative plans about. First, to the flower shop and the item shop, looking for seeds that might result in food that could restore Rune Magic. Or a certain special kind of blue flower, one she's not likely to find until the fall - but she'll look, for the flower and the seeds.

Then she swallows her weird mix of fear-pride and goes back to the smithy. Time to ask about work. Now that her arm has healed and she's gotten a little practice in again, making accessories doesn't sound bad at all. Whoever is around in there will see her awkwardly stare at the building for several minutes before going inside to stare in a similar fashion at them.

Next comes an early dinner at Seventh Heaven, and that's where she lays out the journal and a small bag of somethings and speaks a message.]


I want to talk to some of you. I'm at the restaurant. [A very long pause.] Do all worlds have monsters?

[[ooc: Basically, if you had a moment with Raven thus far since she's been here, she made you something while she was getting herself back into accessory-crafting shape. Anyone can run into her (literally, if you wish) as she wanders around the village and tries to eat dinner in peace.]]

I don't know about all worlds, but my world has them!

Am I using this book the right way ...?

Oh! Um, well, they're pretty mean, actually. They attack on sight, and they'll chase you a really long way if you're not careful.

[Oh that Raven lady Soren's so fond of. Man, she'll be surprised to see how big he got... They've talked about monsters/animals before on the draft, but he always enjoys describing them. Chien likes remembering home sometimes.]

Giant frogs, fishmen with hooks, giant red lizards that spit burning stuff and bite at you... There's giant bees and all sorts of plants too, not just ones that look more like what people usually think of animals.

[a pause]

Who do you want to talk to? Because there's a ton of people here, you know.

While mine does, I can answer your question that not all do. I have met some people whose worlds do not have monsters.

[Interpreting her announcement of where she was as an invitation, Green decides to go where she is to answer her question. But, of course, part of it is to check on her. He hadn't seen her since their run-in on the moon base.]

You made it out fine, I see.

M-Monsters. Well that is a term people use for the b-beings in my world. But I r-rather not use that term for them. They're all rather nice actually, when you get to know them.

[personal profile] cop_an_attitude 2012-07-06 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. But in my world, the only monsters are human.

[personal profile] folklorist 2012-07-06 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, yes. Um, q-quite a few in fact. I-I mean mythica. They're called mythica in my world. [ because he doesn't really like associating the word monster with his students. ]

I teach them at a school of mine along with humans. But, well, my human students don't exactly know that they're living together with such beings.

Name's Green.

Yeah! [ ... ] Well, actually, not all of them will chase you. But if they do see you, they will come after you.

The commonly accepted definition in my world refers to the creatures that infest areas humans don't live in and make travel dangerous. My own definition is that it is a creature of any type that attacks another creature without that creature having done something to provoke such an attack.

[ Since the whole "smithy was demolished by the storm" thing, Lightning hasn't yet made it back around to visiting the place again until just now. She's just there for the usual, though- gunblade supplies, throwing knives she can take without worrying about them belonging to someone else... so while she notices Raven is there too, she also makes little indication of the fact unless the other woman just happens to notice her initial glance. ]

... Alright. [Then he'll... Start off towards to find her at Seventh Heaven. All he has to do is follow the smell of food! She'll just hear a window crack open and some shuffling over the journal 'cause Chien and Soren are flying there leisurely (as they do with all their comes and goes)!]

Do your trees have faces? The insects will pretty much attack you on sight too, unless you subdue it first. Their honey's a pretty good snack.

Aye, to my knowledge all worlds do, but the idea of what makes a monster and the definitions thereof differ vastly. Sometimes even within the same world.

[Rorona is actually using mind-control through the journals--- Wow. Only some? That's a first ...]

Oh, really? So, your world has friendly monsters in it?

[That's because he learned that the human monsters are far worse than the ones that infest the roads. That and what most term as monsters attack out of an innate need for survival.]

That is because I have known humans who are far more deserving of the title than the actual monsters are.
