[ There's a little sheep going around campus... okay no, not really. Sort of. There's a Mareep turned human going around, with a basket carried in both hands. It's filled with what looks like tissue paper, tied and wrapped around a thing. ... Like circular balls. Oh, how mysterious! Sometimes, her basket might look nearly empty. But no worries, 'cause she'll soon have more in there.

And she's looking for people. Anyone. Everyone. You. Or maybe you. She's especially looking for faces she recognises, even if those faces don't recognise her.

Or maybe she's never seen you before, but hey, if you're around and don't look terribly busy (or maybe you are), maybe this girl with too much light blonde hair will come over to you. What's up?

And people whose rooms she knows of or of their classrooms, hey, you're getting a visit. Library goers, too. Greenhouses. The stadium. The gym.

Everyone, you are going to meet this girl.

Spoilers, for those with good noses: it smells like chocolate. ]

I'm a Mareeeep. [ But does this lady know anything about a Mareep? Hmm... ] People call me a sheeep when they see meee. Have you seen a sheeeep?

[luneshalla]

A sheep hm? Yes I have, and I've eaten my fair share of them I'd have to admit. [She said as casually as talking about the weather.]

A Mareep however, I have not seen before other than in the textbook. So you're a student as well?

[fluffsyou]

[ Oh, that doesn't sound very fun at all... ]

Maaa, I ammmm, but I haven't been one for looong.

[ buuut... ] You won't eat Mareeeeep, wiiill yooou?

[ Maisy definitely can't help but to look upset over the thought. She doesn't like the sound of anyone getting eaten, but a lady eating Mareep...! ]

[luneshalla]

[Ellistree grins mischievously.]

I haven't found a reason to eat any of the Pokemon I've met no. They've been rather precious and there hasn't been a need for me to eat them considering I'm not in the wilds and hunting anyway.

[She laughed a little and shook her head.]

So no, I won't be eating you. You can continue feeling safe my little Mareep.

[fluffsyou]

[ The uncertain expression on her face still hadn't gone. It wasn't for her, but the thought of eating any... animal at all. She knew that some ate meat, but she had been able to really not dwell on it. Not certainly in the way someone saying "i eat sheep" goes. ]

Mareep are famiiiilly, alll of uuuss. I don't want anyone to be eeeateeen.

[ Maisy went down onto her knees, joining Ellistree's level. The basket was still in front of her, and she tilted the top of the basket towards the woman with the handle, though not enough to spill the wrapped contents inside out. ]

If you're hungrrry, I've got choooc'lates. Me and 'lorah made looots, 'cause it's Varrreeentine's Day tomorrroow.

[luneshalla]

[Ellistree laughed. It wasn't rare for those who were connected to the creatures who she considered prey to seem disturbed by her freely speaking of the circle of life. It was generally amusing.]

You have nothing to worry, there's no lack of food in this place so I have no reason to go hunting unless I'm feeling particularly picky.

In which case, I'll keep in mind not to eat any Pokemon.

As for your chocolates, I wouldn't mind a few samples.

[fluffsyou]

[ Maisy couldn't wipe away entirely the uncertainty she felt inside her, of the topic of eating others. But she would let it go, since the lady said she wouldn't eat anyone while she was here... so she would just have to stay here a very long time, wouldn't she?

So, she was willing to just move onto the subject of the chocolates! She lifted and moved the basket just a bit more close to Ellis, putting back at least a small smile onto her face. ]

You caaaan, they're for everrryone. You can have more than ooone if you liike theem!

[luneshalla]

Is that so? Well isn't that just sweet of you hm? If the chocolates are as sweet as you then I hope you made extras~

[Ellistree grabbed a couple and bowed her head in thanks. She took a delicate bite of one before smiling broadly and popping the rest of the first chocolate in her mouth.]

Very tasty~ Not as sweet as you but it's something that I'm sure will bring a smile to everyone's faces. It did it for me, thank you.

[fluffsyou]

[ The compliments were sweet themselves - and so was the knowledge that the lady enjoyed them! ]

Do you liike choc'lates reeeallly sweet? Me and 'lorah tried and make them all the saaame. Just in caaase, 'cause we don't know what eveerryyoone likes.

[ But that made a thought cross her mind. ] If we make moore, we can make some juusst for yoou!

[luneshalla]

[Ellistree nodded.]

I'm not much of a sweets person, but I do like my candy and chocolate extra sweet. I guess it's to make up for the fact I don't eat them often.

[At the offer, Elli smiled.]

Can't say I'd mind much, getting free sweets and all.

[fluffsyou]

Okay!

[ That was no biggy. Alorah seemed to really like cooking, and she did too, so she could keep that tucked in her mind for later the next time the two went chocolate making again!

But, for then... Ellistree, she saw, looked much older than others she saw. Or maybe she just looked very very pretty like that? It made Maisy wonder... ]

Are you a stuuudent? You look like a teeeacher.

[luneshalla]

[Elli smirked and chuckled a bit.]

Well, technically I could be a teacher all things considered but, no. I am enrolled as a college student in the academy. I decided I wanted to learn more about this world.

[fluffsyou]

[ Hm, oh, she saw that in the forms when she had to enroll, that's for the bigger bigger people. But what she says perks a bigger interest to her. ]

This wooorllld?

[luneshalla]

Mhm~ I'm not native to this world so I'd like to know more about it. It's incredibly interesting and intriguing so far.

[fluffsyou]

Maa, maa--! Are you stuck tooo? I know someone who's stuck toooooo!

[ She hadn't actually thought about this in a while, but mentioning about another world... it brings back a memory, of a man trying to find a way home. ]

[luneshalla]

Hm, I wouldn't say stuck per say. I'm not actively seeking a way out at the moment since I'm enjoying my stay so far in this place. I'm sure if I put my mind to it, I could head back home when I'm done here.

[fluffsyou]

Reeally? Can you maake pooortals? Mister Gorrrddaan, he's my frieeend-- he said he can't get hooome.

[luneshalla]

Portals? Hm, not technically but I know one teleportation spell that should take me back to my training grounds and homeworld.

[fluffsyou]

You dooo? Can you make teleportants... spelllls, to anywheeere?

[luneshalla]

No, sadly. If I was a mage I could... but alas, druids don't have the same arcane prowess in teleportation magic as mages do.

[fluffsyou]

Maa.... so a... maaaage can make ways to let people go hooome?

[luneshalla]

They could, yes. They're rather adept at creating portals amongst other amazing arcane feats.

[fluffsyou]

[ ! ] Can I fiiind a maaage? Are theeey heeere?

[luneshalla]

Sadly, I haven't seen one, sorry. But maybe you could advertise for one? That usually worked around the boards in the trade districts.

[fluffsyou]

Traade dissstriicts? What are thooose?
