Hm. [ The hum comes from the blond as she contemplates the sad state of the deflated bouncy house. And it's only a hum because she has a mouth full of vanilla cake. She couldn't eat chocolate, didn't like lemon, and spice was never her favorite so- Vanilla it was. Ironic, maybe, for anyone that knew her.

Truthfully? Despite seeing a couple of familiar faces, there hadn't been any true recognition yet. Rose wasn't sure if anyone knew her. Or if she knew anyone. She did know there was cake though. Cake makes everything better. At least, that's what she keeps telling herself to try and stamp down any worry that those she'd come to know the last few months hadn't made it out with her. ]

[ Rose's Digitized Technical Friend takes the form of her animal familiar from Erku's simulated world of Tenebrae Town. Well, at least she got to keep something from the island.

Her hand goes up to her neck, almost instinctively, to the pendant that had been there nearly always since the holidays. Ah, it's... Right. Her DTF tilts its head and its tongue lolls out before a voice from it sounds: ] You can re-gain any small items or accessories by completing a peaceful interaction!

and takes a seat on a patch of grass out in Aditus to look up at the sky. While The Peacekeeper had suggested living with others, Rose wasn't sure that was a good idea. Even thinking it over rationally, it didn't seem ideal but... She'd figure it out. She always did. While turning it over in her head and a myriad of other things, it's only natural that she begins to sing. Her voice carries on the simulated winds: ]

♫ Once upon a time, once when you were mine, I remember skies reflected in your eyes. I wonder where you are, I wonder if you think about me. Once upon a time in your wildest dreams. ♫
