What: Jasper's Arrival
Rating: Low
Status: Open (I imagine Alice would find him first, but open to others as well); Ongoing

Like most people who had arrived on Galador, Jasper's first experience of it was jarring. It had just passed midday at home and his thoughts had wandered to Alice (as they often did) when he felt an unfamiliar, uncomfortable pull in the pit of his stomach. One second he was home and the next he was in the middle of a park and it was evening. Alarmed, he looked up at the stars to try to gauge where he was. He didn't recognize any constellations. Nothing about the place was familiar. So how did he get there? What was going on?

"Always," Jasper replied. He had no reason to doubt Alice. She would always tell him the truth. He gave her hand a squeeze and listened intently. When she fully explained where they were his eyebrows shot up in surprise. They were 'vegetarian' vampires in a world that didn't know that they existed. Now, they were in a world, a universe that was aware of them and didn't bat an eyelash. That was a lot to take in.

Still. His first thought was always about Alice and her well-being. "So, if this gem takes people from different times and different places," he started to say in his Texan drawl, "then, what's the last thing that you remember from back home? And how long have you been here?" That worried him most of all. For him they'd barely been apart at all, but how much time had passed for Alice?

"A few years had passed since our confrontation with the Volturi. Things were finally calm for once, and you and I were planning a trip for ourselves. Unfortunately, I arrived here before we ever got the chance." Her words and tone were light, but he'd feel the sadness she was holding back about it all. "It's been almost two years since I arrived here." Not a long time in the grand scheme of their lives, but it felt like eternity without him.

Almost two years. That explained the feelings rolling off of Alice in waves. Jasper lifted their entwined hands to give the back of her hand a kiss this time. "Well," he started to say, "I guess you got a head start on our vacation." He gave her a lopsided smile.

Still. Due to the nature of his ability, he felt the weight of that time spent apart on Alice's end and his heart broke for her. "I'm here now and I'm not goin' anywhere," he promised, holding her gaze. "Whatever happens next we'll face it together."

She couldn't help the smile that brightened her entire face as he lifted her hand to kiss. She wrinkled her nose at him and darted in to give him a peck on the lips. "Guess I did."

She knew they needed to go over to the Welcome Center. So the staff there could record his arrival and get him a communication device, but she wasn't really ready to share him just yet. "I got us a house in the city of Monstropolis. I know the name sounds bad, but it's really wonderful. I'm good friends with the Princesses there. Bella and Edward are here, there are two versions of Ness. Carlisle's here, and now you."

	Jasper's face lit up when she gave him that quick kiss. "If you picked Monstropolis as a place for us to live then I know that it'll be wonderful." Of course she'd made friends with royalty. Alice could make a friend out of anyone if she had a mind to. "And I'll be happy to see our family soon, but... not just yet." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She beamed at that and snuggled in against him. She lay her head against his chest and wrapped his arms around her. "I'm happy to stay right here for as long as you want." (Reply to this) (Parent)
