[Accidental Video]

[mercury_gaze]

[The little drone sent to this new arrival has ended up turned on.  She seems to be trying to shoo it away.]  N-no.  No, go away.  Please.  [She's whispering, but the tone is desperate and edged with tears.]
 
[She turns and limps away from the drone, something must be wrong with her right leg.  The drone just...follows.  When the girl glances back and sees it still coming after her she lets out a sound that's something between a frustrated growl and a whimper.]

L-leave me alone.

[Anyone paying special attention to the surroundings the drone shows may note that this child seems to be somewhere close to The Hub, as they'll be able to spot the Warehouse behind her at least once.]

[She gasps.] Whoa....

[And then she grins!] Did you make that?!

gives jendayi her own snow giant guardian yes good

[fractalize]

All of it.

[ OH NO FEELINGS She remembers Anna being so excited to build snowmen, and it makes her laugh a little bit. ]

I think if I can do this, then you can learn to fly.

Yes good. Very good.

[mercury_gaze]

[smiling] That's really pretty. Just amazing. I've never heard of powers with ice. Papa has told me about water wielders, but not ice.

[fractalize]

We're from different places, probably. That's a big possibility.

[ Elsa beams, glad to give Jendayi someone who's similar to how she is. ]

Does your Papa have powers as well? Or is it just you?

[mercury_gaze]

No. He found me though, and promised to keep me safe. Says the laws against wielders are wrong.

[fractalize]

Laws?

[ He gaze goes from beaming to narrowing. Someone made laws against magic where she lived?

It was like her worst nightmare, and Jendayi seemed to have lived it. ]

I can only imagine they're wrong. Why punish someone for som---

[ She takes a breath; probably not the best time. ]

Your papa is likely right.

Luckily, you won't have to worry about those here; and should you, there's me and a few other people who'll prove them otherwise.

[mercury_gaze]

[She smiles a little.] Papa says people are afraid of things they don't understand.

[This makes her smile grow a little more.] Thank you, miss Elsa. I...I'm feeling a little better about being here now.

[fractalize]

I agree with him.

[ Her smile makes Elsa's grow in turn; it's good to know not everyone is afraid of her at first glance. ]

You're very welcome, Jendayi. If you ever---

[ Elsa stops short; maybe she shouldn't extend this olive branch. But she was only a child, and she'd never forgive herself if she didn't. ]

If you ever need anyone to help you, or someone to talk to---[ Goodness knows she always did. ]--and Lea isn't around, you're more than welcome to bother me.

Whenever, wherever. About whatever you want. Alright?

[mercury_gaze]

[She studies Elsa a moment...and then is scrubbing tears from her eyes before they fall.]

Thank you. Thank you, so much. That really means a lot to me. [She felt so lost, so homesick, but having Lea and now Elsa to help her...just felt good.]

[fractalize]

[ WAIT NO TEARS PANIC ]

Maybe we could have a snow day.

[ WELL SHE WAS GONNA SAVE IT FOR LATER. ]

E-Eventually.

Building forts and snowmen. It'd be a nice change of scenery down the line, you think?

[mercury_gaze]

[She smiles at Elsa now.]

A snow day? I'd love that.

[fractalize]

Maybe we could have a snowball fight, and team up against Lea.

[ Oh, she felt like a little girl there for a moment, plotting with her sister. ]

I'm sure he'd win, but...we'll have a lot of fun. Promise.

[mercury_gaze]

[She giggles.] I'd like that. And who knows...we could win...
