[Look, it's another blonde on the network. However, it was definitely a teenager, and beside him was perhaps the grumpiest Moogle to be seen. It doesn't take long for it to flutter out of view, glowering all the while. Either the boy wasn't bothered by it or just chose to ignore it as he smiled before slightly frowning.]

Hi...

I want to start by taking a moment to apologize. Normally, I'd make an effort to get to know everyone and I wanted to respond to more people on the network, but when we all arrived from the Dream Width, something pretty important to me didn't make it through. Biggs and Wedge managed to find it recently - thanks again by the way. Still, that doesn't excuse my behavior to some people so... I'm sorry about that.

[He nodded his head once and allowed for a beat of silence in which he rubbed the back of his head before recomposing himself]

Anyway, my name's Adrien and I'm from Paris, France on Earth. Until recently, I was homeschooled and I still have a lot to learn when it comes to socializing outside of a fundraiser or a show. Aside from that, I've been tutored in other subjects like Chinese, piano, and fencing, the last I've applied to my asterisk. If you guys ever need a Swordmaster or Ninja, I'm totally up for lending a hand.

[He smiled wider.]

Thanks for your time and I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone.

[And with a wave, the video ended.]

Oh, uh, yeah. I thought they mentioned that on the tour... Anyway, Summoners seek out the Eidolons wherever they're residing and pray at their shrines for their aid.

[ It seems someone was so caught up in learning everything about White Mage that the Summoner part was breezed through. Now she's just going to look a bit stunned, then gradually turn sheepish at not knowing this. Where was her mind at the time? Probably ... a few places. ]

I suppose that's what I will have to do tomorrow.

[Whoops... He didn't mean to... ahh...]

Will you need any help with that?

[Since he kinda did just complicate things.]

[ All she has to do is pray to the Eidolons? And seek them out? Why did she just breeze through the process? I guess the part of supporting others was all she paid attention to. She smiles, albeit a little bit nervously. ]

... I've never prayed to Eidolons before. I suppose I could use the company in finding them? If that's not too much trouble! I would hate to be a bother. [ Looks away. ] There's so much here we all need to do before the generosity is over.

Sure, I don't mind. I'm kind of interested in seeing what sort of places they reside in.

[He nods.] We still have a few months, but we should get that in order.

[ Relief. It will be nice to have company with this. ]

Thank you, Adrien. I'm grateful for your company and ability to retain all of this better than myself. [ Quietly ] I would hate to make additional mistakes...

You don't have to thank me. Friends help friends. [He blinks, thinking she said something, but decides to only tilt his head.] Is everything okay?

Yes... everything is fine. [ A smile. ] How is being a Swordmaster? I'm sure you've mastered it by now.

Okay... but if anything's ever bothering you, I don't mind hearing you out. [There's the offer if something comes to her.]

I'm not a master yet, but it's been working out so far!

[ Just going to gravitate away from her very obvious mood to happier topics. ]

I've had a bit of experience as White Mage. It's quite unusual being able to cast these spells and have actual magical abilities. I imagine it's the same for you? Having magical abilities and strange powers? I've never imagined it being possible until now.

[And he will not say anymore as the conversation changes.]

It is, but Swordmasters don't really have magic; just skills. But even those seem like casting a spell or something.

Is it? I've never seen it in action yet. [ A pause. ] When Connie, myself, and Lelouch went to take care of the Chocobo Eater, her abilities appeared to be a mix of magical combat. It was ... well, amazing.

[ A frown. ] I have a feeling it won't be the last time we'll have to fight.

Was it? Maybe next time I'll get to see someone with abilities like that. My... er, partner and I shared an asterisk and then she used magic.

[Mythra was... interesting.]

Hm... no, it's just the start most likely.

[ Only the beginning. That frightens her just a bit. Removed from one world with violence and chaos and into another. How unfair. Her eyes lower just a bit as she continues. Must keep the positive conversation going! ]

Your partner? Who is your partner?

Mythra. She helped me fight the Chocobo Eater along with two other Chocobo...

It was a pretty temporary partnership. I think I annoyed her...

[But he isn't sure how...]

Oh. I'm sorry to hear that. Perhaps they might give you a second chance next time? I'm sure it was okay. Perhaps ... better than my performance.

It's my second time meeting her, and the first time was... interesting.

[He's pretty sure she didn't like him then too.]

What happened with your group?

Ah, well ... I had a moment where I, uhm. I forgot how to use my spell. [ Looks off. ] There was so much happening and I— ... I believe I froze up.

Oh... don't feel too bad about it. You guys pulled through, and you can take some time to try getting used to situations like that.

I suppose. But if I didn't act quickly enough, someone could have been gravely injured. It's ... really important that I keep everyone in good condition. [ And alive. Don't forget alive, Euphy. That frightened her the most given what she knows. ]

Were you injured at all? Anything serious?

It is, but Euphy, don't put all that pressure on yourself. We can use items to heal in battle, too.

[She could tire herself out if she pushes herself too far.]

I'm fine. A few bumps, but potions took care of them.
