Channelknight Fadran Posted August 8, 2023 Author Posted August 8, 2023 "Okay. I have a favor to ask."
Mags she/they Posted August 8, 2023 Posted August 8, 2023 (edited) Ari chuckled nervously, turning off onto a side street to hopefully eliminate some of the road sounds. "Ooookay what is it?" Edited August 8, 2023 by Justice_Magician
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 8, 2023 Author Posted August 8, 2023 "Can you come to Earth? We can cover the pass and transportation."
Mags she/they Posted August 8, 2023 Posted August 8, 2023 "Wha- Parprika I'm on Earth? No one is letting me leave." Just then a very loud group of people passed yelling and laughing and the phone defiantly picked it up
Mags she/they Posted August 8, 2023 Posted August 8, 2023 "Yeah?? No one is letting me leave . . . they're worried I'll return to my people and give them human military secrets or something-- not that I have any of those. Your government is terrified I know of some advantage my people can use against then at least." Quote Yeah, I guess I thought it was implied she couldn't leave Earth so she's still there. By "Her house" I meant her residence on earth, she's been living there for upwards of a year. She got news from the elves over the phone. Sorry if I made it confusing, that's my bad.
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 8, 2023 Author Posted August 8, 2023 "Oh. Ohhhh. ...Oh." Paprika blinked a couple times. "Okay, uhm... alright, then. I'm not on base right now, so... I guess can you come visit my apartment? How close are you to Geneva?"

"Um well . . . yes I am in the city but I'm not supposed to leave my house, there were guards and everything . . ." Ari sighed, might as well tell her. "I escaped though! so I can come if you send me your address," Quote Not me having to look up what Geneva is Edited August 8, 2023 by Justice_Magician
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 8, 2023 Author Posted August 8, 2023 (edited) Quote Switzerland! It's where the UN is irl, and for our purposes hosts where the United Worlds building is. "Okay. I'm at 12, 1205 Boulevard des Philosophes. Fourth floor, room 429. Right by the stairs." Quote I actually had to look up how street addresses work in Switzerland Edited August 8, 2023 by Channelknight Fadran

Right by the stairs." "Right I'm coming!" Ari said, then hung up. Finding the apartment was easy with the map inside her Data-thingie. Luckily she had already been in the right area, so it was a fairly short walk. A few minutes later she was knocking on the door. Quote Switzerland! It's where the UN is irl, and for our purposes hosts where the United Worlds building is. Quote ooooooh that makes a ton of sense actually (I swear I took a geography class once but my brain is a goldfish) Edited August 8, 2023 by Justice_Magician
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 8, 2023 Author Posted August 8, 2023 Two locks had to slide out of the way before Paprika could open up, but did so still in her uniform despite the hour. The television was on behind her, logged into Vinde+ so a small redheaded child could watch an old Justice League cartoon (Batman and Wonder Woman were currently arguing about how best to defeat Lex Luthor). "Hi, Ari. Come in, come in..." She seemed a little anxious. Quote btw I imagine it's late-ish evening.
Mags she/they Posted August 8, 2023 Posted August 8, 2023 "Hallo! how are you? good to see you!" she said as Paprika lead her inside. "So what is the favor?"
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 8, 2023 Author Posted August 8, 2023 "Uh..." Paprika looked over at the child. "Can't right this second. Basil, honey, how much longer is on that show?" "It's almost done, Pappie." He insisted. She shook her head. "Can you pause it and brush your teeth first?" "Okayyyy." Basil lethargically paused the show and scampered to the bathroom. The two of them were now alone in the kitchen. "Okay. Can I get you anything? Tea? Cocoa?"
Mags she/they Posted August 8, 2023 Posted August 8, 2023 "The small one is cute! do you have any Aoisdufaohwe?"
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 8, 2023 Author Posted August 8, 2023 "...No." "Muh nme's Bsil!" He said, mouth presumably full of toothpaste, from the bathroom.
Mags she/they Posted August 8, 2023 Posted August 8, 2023 "Hello young Bsil! Aoisdufaohwe is very good you should try it!"
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 8, 2023 Author Posted August 8, 2023 "I'll have to put in an order." Paprika just got out a few cups of water for the time being. "Anyways, so I haven't heard any reports about your... situation."
Mags she/they Posted August 8, 2023 Posted August 8, 2023 "Yes well, they want to keep everything about me very quite, you know? I was friend a few days ago, but now I'm a Foreign alien spy bent on your race's annihilation. Funny how things can change," She said, taking the water and sitting on the floor.
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 8, 2023 Author Posted August 8, 2023 Apparently elves sat on the floor? Paprika joined her. "Well, what I'm saying is that I'm not obligated to report you or any of your actions to my superiors. So you're safe here."
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 9, 2023 Author Posted August 9, 2023 "And also if I did have to... then I don't." She scratched the back of her head. "Because I'm my own commanding officer now."
Mags she/they Posted August 9, 2023 Posted August 9, 2023 "Good for you! so what is you wanted to talk about?"
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 9, 2023 Author Posted August 9, 2023 Basil came running out of the bathroom, a bit of toothpaste still lingering on his face, to finish his show. "I..." Paprika lowered her voice a little. "I've been put in charge of a new... group. I can't say much yet, but... well..."
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 9, 2023 Author Posted August 9, 2023 "More like a new military squad."
