all day || outside sunset village
[If you happen to be travelling outside Sunset Village, you might've noticed this little group of a white-haired dude and his nearly equally as white-haired daughter, going back and forth from the town, carrying things over to a wooden house a little further past the train station, along the mostly empty greener areas past the Village itself.

Nothing too extraordinary, but someone clearly settling in might feel a little unusual given most people were initially told there were no permanent residents yet, and told of the fleeting nature of this world. Maybe you wonder how are they managing to purchase multiple items already. Perhaps you received your own charm, or requested to stay longer, and would like to chat to people in the same situation.

Or maybe you're just stopping by to listen to the third person involved - the bard, who doesn't seem to be helping much at all, unless you count his music lifting everyone's spirits... supposedly.]

[[Little log for the family! Feel free to poke any of them, or mingle among yourselves if you'd like. || Vers. en español. ¡Postcito para la familia! Pokeen a cualquiera de ellos, o mézclense entre ustedes si quieren.]]

[During his journey to eventually defeat the Demon King, he's often been teased about taking detours and ending up involved in unrelated shenanigans to help others, so it's not that the interruption itself bothers him that much.

Still, there's going on a sidequest to help a group of villagers in need, and there's... this, where he's not quite sure of the purpose or intention behind it. Much as he also enjoys new adventures and exploring new locations, it rather feels more like a trick or a trap of some magician than anything else.]

[Besides, the most pressing matter is that he's found himself here on his own, and he's sorely missing his usual party. He'll sigh softly as he stops to rest on a fallen log along the road.]

If only I had a locating spell to use... [The struggles of being a Hero type and not a wizard or anything of the sort.]

["Let's go" she'd told Fern oh so confidently... So how did it turn out this way? Phantoms vanquished and a clear path ahead to the Riegel Canyon seemed like a direct enough plan forward, or so she thought. Frieren can truly say this is a wrong turn that she cannot explain even with her own tendencies to get lost. Sure, she accepts all the basic greetings and explanations without much of a reaction, stewing on it in her thoughts alone but eventually - she sets off with a sigh when it appears her apprentice isn't following behind her off the bridge.]

That girl's going to be upset with me again...

[Scary. On a deeper note, yes, there's a million more things she could say or think about the seeming impossibility of this whole situation, but when it seems like she can't brute force her way back, the most natural next best thing is to get a lay of the land. Easy enough, she's done that plenty alone, right?

.... Don't mind the rustling muffled noises from some bushes across somewhere off the path. This is Fine.]

[Even if he hadn't already been particularly alert to any sounds or signs of his Party nearby, he still would've recognized those noises instantly. He figures it's even worse of a situation if the source of them happens to be separated from the others, like he is, and has less of a chance of a quick rescue.]

[So don't mind him as he quickly gets up and trots to those bushes from where he can hear them. This is just a usual scenario for him, and he has no idea you haven't heard this voice in a good while now.]

Is it a mimic, again?

[There's something to be said about the difference in hearing a demon's imitation of her feelings and memories, versus what she immediately recognizes as the illogical impossibility of - the real thing? Hearing without seeing perhaps makes it all the more confusing, enough for her to fully stop struggling with the jumble of leaves and branches she got herself tangled up in, silent for a few awkward beats too long.]

... Nothing like that. [Sorry uhhhh?]

	[Atta girl, you dealt with it well. Not that he really knows the extent of what you're dealing with. He refrains from fussing over her possible state at dealing with these bushes, greetings come first.] There you are. I was looking... [Shakes his head slightly before a more confident smile.] I was waiting for you. I was sure you'd find me soon. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Once she's out enough to look towards him and really see him, she's not sure what she even expected to find after hearing his voice in the first place. She can discern without having to think twice that it isn't some trick or a lingering Einsam following her along. But then...]

Himmel.

[I wasn't looking for you, she nearly blurts out first, but that isn't even true either, is it? Just that finding him, if she found him or anything at all, isn't supposed to be for a long, long distance and years yet. Right?]

For how long?

[Waiting, he says. He would, wouldn't he.]

[Thinks there's something odd about her expression, but doesn't dwell on it for now.]

Oh, not too long. I walked past a rainbow bridge into a reception area... [Blahblah, got told information about the world, decided to set out on his own after waiting for a while got him nothing, especially since he wasn't sure if the rest of them hadn't arrived earlier and were waiting for him instead.]
