[OPEN and one closed prompt] A very backdated arrival
Who: Aziraphale & anyone else!
What: An angel arrives to the archipelago and is extremely confused. Plus a bit of exploration
When: October 27th - November 4th
Where: Mostly Ensō
Warnings: Stress and confusion
ARRIVAL [Closed, for Crowley]
Beach holidays are lovely in concept. The sun, the sea, the sand, all the good marks of a nice time, should the weather permit it.
What is not so lovely, however, is finding yourself, alarmingly, somewhere where you're not supposed to be. Somewhere where you definitely were not just moments--hours-days-- hold on just a moment. He doesn't even quite remember ever settling down or in any way losing consciousness. Which, you know, wouldn't make this whole situation any less cause for alarm, but it would be somewhere to start.
He's stepping through the damp sand, holding, in his hands, a knapsack that, for some reason, has his name embroidered on it. The items inside do nothing to answer any questions, and he's looking around every which way.
Something about this place is...different. Something feels strange - well, all of it is strange -, and he can't quite put his finger on it. What on Earth did he get himself into?
"Hello?" He calls out, somewhat nervously.
STORYTELLER'S TEMPLE & MANA POOL
The day after his arrival, he sets off to have a look around. This particular building easily catches his eye - hard to miss the structure in the island as is, but there's something else about it. Something-- oh, darn it. Yet another thing he can't quite comprehend, and it's entirely frustrating in an already confusing and stressful situation.
For a few hours, this strangely dressed humanshaped being walks around the temple, examining its structure. He can be found stopping at times, seemingly focused on something, although it doesn't quite seem to be whatever piece of stone or mark on the wall his eyes are landing on.
And then, there's the mana pool; he stands at the edge of it, staring into the water intently.
This place, it's...
What is this?
DENNY
Well, this is...something.
The small gathering of buildings make things feel a little bit more-- hopeful, in some strange sense of the word. Somewhere where one can expect more inhabitants to show up, he would assume, and where he could perhaps get some answers.
Steps into the mess hall and he notices, right away, the effort that must have taken to put this sort of place together. He also notices, immediately, how he must entirely stand out in a place like this. Still, it feels cozy and lively in here. Yes, this is not too shabby at all.
Regardless, he steps quietly along the room, rubbing one of his thumbs into the palm of his other hand.
As soon as he spots someone, he steps to them a bit quicker, clearing his throat to make himself known. Tone light and polite, he addresses them with a smile, if a bit awkwardly:
"Pardon me. I do apologize for my intrusion, but could I take a moment of your time?"
LIBRARY
A library! Oh, of course, a library. He'd find himself soothed if it were not for the lack of, well, most things he'd say were necessary to establish a library of proper quality and structure, but it's a start. He has to assume that there isn't necessarily an abundance of resources in a place such as this.
Still, it warms his little nervous heart, as well as give him some hope to find some proper information about their situation.
He approaches one of the shelves, a dainty finger held up as he looks along the book spines to find...well, he's not sure what he finds. He shouldn't have exactly expected anything to stand out to him specifically, but maybe he could-
The angel looks around, looking for some sort of curator or some sort of keeper. Much like in the mess hall, he approaches the first person he sees with a polite and slightly awkward smile.
"Excuse me. Could you tell me, is anyone in charge of this establishment?"

no subject
[Because she thought this poor newcomer doesn't understand what she said. It's fine-it's hard and weird. She gets it and she doesn't have a problem repeating herself.]
You don't have to be scared. It's okay. I'll hold your hand.
no subject
Oh, that's-- that's quite alright. Thank you.
[ He looks toward the pool again, a hand held over the other. ]
Although- where does it lead?
no subject
[Which is like. That makes sense, doesn't it? Sure, let's pretend. She presses her palm against the blooming flowers around the mana pool, clutching a bunch to pull from the ground.]
That's how it works. It's very easy.
no subject
[ A little bit too simple, even for a creature like him. Despite what the rabbit creature--god--deity apparently said, he would have thought there was more of a ritual to it.
He eyes the waters. Apparent flower-toll based teleportation capabilities notwithstanding, there's something about them that feels...powerful. Magical. Even...invigorating?
He's not sure how much a child can tell him, but she's, well, here. ]
These locations. Are they all within the same area?
no subject
For all her time here, she still doesn't understand the islands relationship to one another or what their distances are. She's never looked or asked, so it's nothing she can answer.
Instead, she holds out both her hands for the man to grab, if he wants.]
I don't know, but I'll show you.
no subject
Oh, hum, that’s quite alright. [ If it true, he doesn’t want to possibly end up stranded in yet another place he doesn’t know. Specially as he might not find his way back to a certain demon if that happens. He thinks, anyway.
But, still, he smiles, polite if not at least a bit awkward.]
Say, what is your name?
