"Not a family heirloom, actually...but it's still super-important to me."
"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015"Yeah, pretty much."
Tsubaki then laughs awkwardly.
"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015"Everything about it is a secret to you."
"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015"Nope! Super-duper secret."
"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015"Well, that's just one fine helping of awesomesauce right there. And by the way, how old are you, anyway?"
"I'm not a little kid. I'm in high school. And I can handle myself."
"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015"Yeah, I kinda figured that was the case if you managed to make through that temple in one piece. Still, if you ever need any help with something, I'd be happy to lend a hand. Anyway, I think I'm gonna turn in for now. See ya around, Tsubaki."
Nicole's dragon wings emerge from her back, and she flies off.
Taking a break for now.
A good number of moments ago...
A lady steps out of a building in station square. "Well, I'm loving this place already! They've actually got air-con, a microwave oven and chilled and frozen food unlike my fucking hellhole of a world! And I swear that I saw those supplies keep restocking themselves."
Moments ago...
Rosie is walking through a ruin-like area.
"I'm in a ruin. A fucking ruin, with lotsa water. Let's see how this place is any different from the city ruins-"
Fewer moments ago...
"This is just damn weird stuff, what the fuck was up with a moving rock snake in the water? Thank goodness my partner taught me how to solve this puzzle..."
A pretty soaked Rosie is rushing past flaming arrow traps. She manages to get past a good number of them... but due to her recklessness, she still ends up a mini pincushion by a few.
"Ah! Fuck!" Rosie angrily shouts as she pulls the arrows out of her flesh. Her wounds close rather rapidly, but it's enough to stain her coat. Thanks to her wet clothing she's not burned, and some of the blood doesn't stick, but there's a few patches.
Now...
Rosie's been tired, having to climb walls via her climbing pick-like devices that she normally uses to scale building walls, escaped a damn boulder (thanks to using those picks at really fast speed, she climbed high enough to avoid the thing).
Tsubaki would be able to hear Rosie's annoyed rant, right before she sees a black-haired, red eyed, rather buxom lady with a coat and a good number of weapons on her. There's blood on her coat and pants, but oddly enough she looks to be fine.
"Who builds a place where the pathways have bloody loop-de-loops, weird mirror puzzles that took me a good bit of time to understand, walls that are irritating to climb, and weird speed things that throw me forwards? It's like this wasn't made for humans!"
Rosie sees the teen girl.
"...Oh hello there."

...eheh"Hi there. Did you just go through that temple too? Took me awhile to actually get to the end."
"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015"Yeah, I had to get through this hellhole..."
Rosie looks at her bloodstained clothes, while Tsu's are... well, pretty damn pristine.
"How'd you get through all this unscathed, young lady? I... kinda took a few arrows here and there, thank goodness I didn't get minced by that bloody boulder because I climbed the wall."
Tsu should also find it odd that Rosie's perfectly alright despite her blood-stained clothes.

...eheh"I've got gymnastics skills, so I was acrobatic enough to get through it all unharmed. Why aren't you wounded despite the bloodstains on your clothes?"
"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015"Oooh, that's pretty sweet. I... was kinda reckless. And as for why I'm ok... Well, I kinda heal quickly. It's a long story indeed."
Rosie grins and folds her hands behind her head, as she looks at Tsubaki while glancing a bit at that strange mural.
"But hey, this was a pretty damn action-packed experience that I bloody loved. Except for that mirror door-opener thing, spent a good few minutes trying to figure out how it worked."

...eheh"Where exactly are you from anyways? You look like you stepped out of a war zone."
"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015"Well, I'm from Earth... some city in America I believe. Population: Mostly zombies."
Rosie gives out a grinning "heh" as she shows her guns, pointing them at the mural before re-keeping them.
"Good thing I keep these bad boys in case of any attack. Life's pretty freaking exciting every day!"
...eheh"The zombie apocalypse happened in your world? Are you from a movie of some kind?"
"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015"Well, not a movie. That's real life for me."
Rosie talks about... well a small part of her life story. Unlike that encounter with Alan, she wasn't threatened, nor was she facing off a scientist or potential seeker for her blood.
"Some scientists thought they could make the cure-all, instead they made the zombie virus. What idiots. And I'm the only hope for this apocalypse."
Rosie then takes out both guns and turns to her side, pointing both of them away. "Bullets are the best cure for them."
Of course, Rosie seems to be hiding something else... The "only hope for the apocalypse" part has another meaning to it... related to Rosie's healing ability too.
...eheh"Wow...that's pretty crazy. My mom's actually not too fond of scientists...mostly because they did nasty things to her years before I was born."
"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015Rosie's expression turns from her usual excited grin into one of concern, as she keeps both her handguns in her pockets.
"Ohhh dear... Your mother had trouble with scientists too? I feel for her, young lady."
Welp, Tsu kinda hit Rosie's sympathy button here too.
"It wasn't fun for me when those same scientists who made the zombie virus captured me a good number of years before."
...eheh

"Nothing. Nothing important to you."
Tsubaki seems rather defensive of the object, as if it were really important to her for some secret reason. It's giving off a soft glow in her bag, and if one could detect magic, they'd notice it too is giving off magical energies.
