seiken densetsu 3 (da) angela

(no subject)

[ Angela is staring up at the sky when she appears. Then she disappears, still looking up. Appears again. Disappears. Appears. Then she starts flapping her arms, looking a bit freaked out. Oh Goddess, who does she know that would know what's going on? ]

L-L-Li!

Angela? What's wrong?

[ She points up. ] Sky. Stars. They're not-- it's daytime!

[Dino, looking much better than the last time he saw her, has to come see what's up] Angela? What's wrong?

Easy, relax. Tell me exactly what's going on. What is wrong with the stars? [Sinking feeling--she has it.]

[Hands on her shoulders, steadying her.] Easy, Angie, steady, okay? Whatever's going on, we'll sort it, all right?

They're there! In my sky! In Fa'Diel's sky! [ She points up, accusingly. ] Those stars, right there!

[ Angela would be relieved if she wasn't currently having a brainbreak. ] The Plane stole my sky!

[She frowns, feeling for some reason that this should make more sense to her than it does.] When did they first show up?

[ She's about to jump, but that voice is a very welcome sound when she's this freaked out. ] But there's no difference! And it's daytime!

I got up, got showered and dressed, had breakfast, and I just went outside for some air... And this! [ She spreads her arms still glaring up at the sky. ] It makes no sense! They're not even my stars!

[Feels a little twist of surprise, but makes sure his expression stays calm.] Right, I'm gonna try doing something with you that the Doctor and the Master did with me, okay? I'm going to try and take you to my place again, like we did back then.

[Puts his arms around her and tries to pull her with him to New York.]

A-Angela? What is it?

[ Angela's about to protest, first her sky's all screwed up, then Firo's talking about a Doctor and a Master, and she doesn't want to go anywhere--

Suddenly she feels snow, landing on her bare arms. She looks up, and the world is washed with white, and she wonders when she managed to wander out into the snowfields. ]

[Blink] The Plane what..?

[Now he shows his surprise.] Aces. It worked!

Li! Those! [ She points up at the sky. ] Plantaxies or galactoids or whatever! Why are they in my sky?

Firo? [ Wait. How did Firo come with her? And why is she so tired? ] What worked, why are we... [ Just a moment. This isn't the snowfield. ] Where are we?

It looks the same! Here and at home! But it's daytime at home! [ She glares up at the sky, hands clenched in useless little fists. ] It ate my sky!

[Rubs her temple, feeling a twinge of a headache coming on.] It's probably another experiment of some kind.

[That does not sound good] Are you all right though? The Twins aren't doing anything to you again, are they? [Because they just got through messing with him.]

No, no, they're not... Unless you count this, nothing else is, and no one else has noticed--

[ Running out of indignant raaaage steam. ] Goddess and Tree, this place is going to drive me bonkers!

Another one? But they were just messing with Dino!

[Busy gleeing!] Central Park! You're in New York again. [Hug~! He grabs her hand and starts trotting toward a frozen pond.] Come on, the snow stops just outside the park's walls. I figured this would be the best place to try and bring you through.

[Despite the snow, it's easy to see that the park hasn't been cared for in a long while. The benches are toppled over and half-buried in the snow. The buildings are decaying a bit, and there are several dead trees within view cracking under the strain of constant snowfall.

Oh, and then there's the distant sight of Hooverville through the trees, snow-covered shacks and dull orange fires with shadows drifting in between.]

Because you get this in daytime too? I can see how that will be hard to deal with. At least if it's something the Twins are doing it will probably only last a few days.

But how do I know how long "a few days" is when the sky doesn't change?
