[today there is a nine-year-old girl on the Astral Plane who, perhaps surprisingly, doesn't seem that bothered about her sudden presence in a multi-dimensional nexus. she has long brown hair and is wearing a plain T-shirt and jeans that are a little tattered and dirty, as though they've seen quite a bit of exploring. but her hair is neat and she doesn't look like she's been in anything particularly dirty today. being a curious child, though, she's made for the most interesting place she could spot--the black hole. currently, she has a hand in the gravity field around it and is attempting to see how far she can reach into that]

That feels weird! [she pushes her hand a little farther in, making a face at the sensation of the gravity fighting back] What is this thing?

[anyone listening might notice that the girl has a clear Mancunian accent. in fact, she may even look a bit familiar. but on her end, she's too busy poking at the field to notice anyone who might be approaching]

[ooc: Menzies is currently under her first experiment! For the time being, she has been regressed to when she was nine.]

Wow! [she brightens at that prospect, her worry disappearing and excitement taking its place] So what do you do 'ere? Are there other places we can go?

[darkercalling]

There are, yeah. [He smiles a bit more. That excitement is so freakin’ cute jafkdlsj] A forest, a beach, a coliseum, a theatre, a ballroom...

[grip_on_reality]

Really? All that in space? [she's rocking on her heels now with her excitement to explore] What's your favourite place?

[darkercalling]

The beach. [Easy answer. He doesn't even have to think about it. It might be all dried up, but something about the sand is still... like home.]

Want to go see some of the places?

[grip_on_reality]

[she nods eagerly, thrilled to hear that he's willing to show her around] Yeah! Let's go!

[darkercalling]

[And that eagerness just makes him smile even more. It's settled - Menzies was an awesome kid. Seriously.]

Well, all right. Where first? What sounded like somewhere you'd like best?

[grip_on_reality]

Hmmm. [she thinks about that] What about the beach? Since it's your favourite. [so that means it must be good, right?]
