Texts From Last Night

Welcome to Folkmore's Texts From Last Night meme! This meme can be used as a branch off from our Test Drive Memes and be used as game canon or just for casual fun in the setting! You do not need to be in our game or be invited to play on our TFLN. This can be a great way to meet current players for future invites, get a feel for the setting, or just have some fun.
This can be used for samples on our applications and used as spoons for players accepted into the game!

no subject
Mizu leans in to inspect the metalwork behind the suit. She's not made complicated armor before, but it's some impressive work. She has no idea how it flies. ]
Fascinating. Could I take a closer look at it sometime when you're wearing it?
no subject
[ But first, he needs to take her off the cloud. ]
Need you to hang on. You're not afraid of heights, are you? 'Cause the pressure change if I go too fast will mess up your internal balance, but I'll go faster if you might get sick.
no subject
Having carried people herself, Mizu knows it is what it is. She supported him back on that ship in the trial. It's another version of the same thing. She wraps her arms and legs around him (it'd be dumb to fall now after all this waiting around) and nods. ]
I'm ready.
no subject
The view from up here is beautiful, but he doesn't focus on it. ]
How are you feeling?
no subject
Because Mizu hates being rescued. She hates needing help. She is irritated with herself that she needed it. Not so irritated she'd rather die, but still. ]
Fine. I'm not injured. I'll know better next time.
[ She won't need help next time. ]
no subject
[ He can hear the annoyance in her voice, and he doesn't really understand it. It's not like she could've known better, in any case.
It's no a quick descent, but it's not slow either, definitely not as slow as the air balloons. Gently, he lowers her to the ground. ]
Not so bad, right?
no subject
She gets to her own two feet. ]
It certainly beats falling. How does it work? I have never seen armor like that.
no subject
[ But he lifts up a little. ]
The rockets cause thrust, which allows me to fly. And then, I move to steer.
[ He lands back down. ]
no subject
[ Also steering. To adjust the trajectory of the human rocket once it's already in the air is incredible. ]
I've never seen anything like that.
no subject
[ But you know, just in case she flags down the other one, for some reason, she won't expect Steve. ]
And there are bigger suits. Anyway, I do have to ask - is everything all right up in Never Fade? How did you get trapped?
no subject
[ Because trying to get the attention of someone flying as fast as Steve flew in this while on the ground seems like a fool's errand. ]
Sharks are taking people. I saw someone get taken and tried to find them, but they disappeared. I was searching the entirety of the underside of Never Fade. I'm an experienced swimmer, so I didn't expect it to be a problem to swim back up top. I must have been swimming for hours.
[ She shrugs. By the time she realized it, she was sinking. Mizu made landfall where she could, but it wasn't a good spot. She didn't have a way out or up. ]
no subject
[ He nods. ]
The sharks usually give them back after a few hours. Is there anyone you know missing?
[ He seems so calm about this. ]
no subject
You know what's going on with the sharks?
Yes, a... person I know. I saw them taken, but I couldn't find them.
[ Not a friend. Mizu doesn't get friends. ]
no subject
If you want, I can go back up and try to find them. They usually don't keep anyone more than a couple hours.
[ And this time at least, they've been giving them... things. ]
no subject
It's been a few hours already.
[ Rin should be fine. Mizu doesn't want to owe Steve more than she does. She pushes her glasses farther up her face, though they hardly need it. ]
I'll check on them. See that they got out.
no subject
[ He's so nice like that. ]
no subject
I appreciate it. Thank you.
[ Manners. ]
How often do you use the flying armor?
no subject
It's nice to get to use it.
[ He smiles. ]
Do you want to come back up?
no subject
[ Mizu wonders what would happen if she took her katana to it. She wouldn't want to try with Steve inside it. That'd be a terrible way to find out it doesn't hold up. ]
No, no, I'll get going. The water was making everything weird up there.
no subject
Sure. I'll check for your friend.
[ It wouldn't take him very long to fly back up and look, in any case. ]
no subject
[ That word is not comfortable on her tongue, though she says it when she needs to. ]
