What: Seeing A Familiar Face
Where: A bench looking toward the vineyard
Rating: G
Status: In progress

He sat on the bench, his chin resting on his right gloved hand while the left loosely held the sword hilt that stuck out of the scabbard. Shifting his elbow off the belt buckle around his thigh without raising his head, Kadaj stared at the orderly lines of the vineyard fields. He didn't have any real answers regarding the planet but all he wondered about was the footprints to be seen here and there in the dirt.

Perhaps he needed to go eat something in the restaurant or maybe just sleeping would be good. Sighing, he put his face into both his hands. His white hair hung down over the black fingers. He thought about the fact that there were dreams during sleep now. His mind jumped from subject to subject in a random fashion because he didn't want to dream just then. What good was it when he had to wake up after seeming to be alive again on Gaia, or after being back in the Lifestream? Like all the stolen people he'd met to date, he didn't want to be here.

Someone approached, his senses warned. Had he been where he belonged, he would have looked up... No, he wouldn't have even been sitting amongst green, growing things so it didn't matter.

Kadaj just continued sitting there holding his head in his hands.

Kadaj let her look around as long as she wanted to. Her reactions were interesting. He did realise this would be an unusual room in the eyes of some, considering the apparent variety of people the planet was kidnapping.

"Thank you." He shook his head, making his hair shift like a silver wave. "I'm sure your room is interesting to strangers just like you find this interesting." His hand indicated the surroundings, moving gracefully for one who always stood so military straight. "We liked living in the Sleeping Forest and Forgotten Capital. I'm glad I can have a memory of it here."

Kadaj paused, then looked at Ayla thoughtfully. "Do you want me to see your room? I've never known anyone like you. Well, that should be obvious, yes. None of us expected to be with such a variety of people, did we?"

Ayla shook her head. "None of us expected to be here at all, captured by a rogue planet who has a mind of its own." The Earth Mother was one thing, but a planet that could think and do things was another entirely. It was evening and the sun had long since set. Ayla was getting tired. She put a hand to her mouth to stifle a yawn, but it was no use.

"Thank you for spending some time with me today, Kadaj. I'm a little tired, but another day you would be welcome to see my room. Thank you for showing me yours. I think I'm going to go back to my room and sleep for the night. Good evening, Kadaj. Thanks again." She smiled at him before turning around and heading out the way she'd been led in.

She found the exit easily enough and stepped through his door into the hall, heading away to her own room.
