[There's a new Namine and she's just walked out of a building to find herself on an unfamiliar street.]
Hmm, did I take a wrong turn?
[She turns around to go back inside the building, but it's not the same place she left.]
How...many wrong turns could I have made?
[As if that's not strange enough, she's looking around to see color. She looks back at herself, a colorless Namine.]
Or did I get spiked with LSD....?
[ooc: new here, hallo! I actually used to lurk and post here a few years ago. I just realized there has been some sort of a setting change, so I'm going to try to get up to speed and accommodate my character.]

Before you do, then, would you mind if I asked you a few questions?
no subject
[She's been around scientists before and this one doesn't seem too threatening.]
no subject
I'm simply curious about your world. Has it always been - monochrome?
no subject
Yes, as long as I've been alive. ... There was a time when things had color though. Once. It didn't last long.

[She sighed.]
And if a person showed a little color in their face, they usually died within 24 hours. First, they just started dying of disease. But then a lot of folks thought they were contagious, so they killed anyone with color as a preemptive strike against an epidemic. It was horrible. Almost the whole planet was wiped out.
no subject
... Unfortunate. Was an explanation ever found?
no subject
They figured it was the color, so just as they killed off the last person with it, they started to rebuild and made sure everything completely monochrome. There are some who don't think the color was the reason everything fell apart, but no one can argue that when everything went monochrome, all the disasters came to an end.

[A little smile, trying not to overwhelm the girl-] Anyway. It's good that your world found its own balance and stability in the end.
no subject
Yeah, me too.
[Directs her gaze to her feet.]
I don't understand science all that well. I'm not sure why things are different here. It made sense when they told me. I don't know--I just believed it. But now, I don't know...
no subject
[Without further study. And as tempting as it is, she doesn't have the resources to study it - or its only example.]
no subject
What about you? What's your world like?
no subject
[Nice, but nothing she's excited over. It provided her a base to work, that was what mattered. Here does the same, and that's what matters now.]
no subject
Do you ever miss it?
no subject
no subject
How long have you been here?
no subject
Hm. A year or so, I'd say.
no subject
[Ponders for a moment. She wonders how long she'll end up staying. How is she supposed to get used that sort of thing.]

[Looks up at the scientist.]
Do I have to watch out for anything?
no subject
no subject
I will, promise.
