Character/s: Renne, (anyone)
Time: August 7 (RSC), Late Afternoon
Location: Housing, Rose District
Summary: A New Kind of Orientation and Mobility. Or, How to get around without magic killing you.
Warnings: None

That...was not a smart move. Upon finding himself here, wherever 'here' was, Renne had gone about his usual list of things to do: Orient himself to his surroundings, which involved a lot of trailing and a fair bit of running into things. And then figure out why he was suddenly wearing a tent. That hadn't been too terribly hard but when it came to the bureau...

That was simply a small disaster waiting to happen.

He'd run into it a time or three after a few circuits around his housing room and on the third run, something had fallen off. Puzzled, naturally, Renne sniffed at it, then made the mistake of touching the thing bare-handed. Yelping rather loudly, the living anomaly tumbled back, tangling in the veritable tent-sized tunic still upon him.
Renne froze and thought rapidly, trying not to lose his lunch. He had to figure out a way to either avoid that thing altogether or, if it must be handled, find a way to do it.

He was a creature who did like to survive, after all.

Teddie happened to be exploring more, noticing that someone was in a house that wasn't there before. Hurrying over, he pulled up his blue dress a little and tried to move a little better before knocking on the door.

"Hello!! I'm Teddie, do you need any help?"

[ ooc: just so you know, the time is set up by day changes in game! The day for this is actually July 26 ]

"Eeee!"

Chirps, yelps and rustles. It takes a minute and a dose of navigational difficulty but the oddity manages to find the door. Don't laugh too hard...once the door opens, well. It's a little blue....critter....apparently trying to wear either a tent or a shirt that's far, far, far too huge for him.

"Is Rrrrenne. Wha-t yeu is?"

Just don't expect him to 'look' anywhere or make eye contact. Rather, his big ears are a-twitch and the creature sniffs at things near enough.

Teddie gives the thing a big grin, holding out a hand for the other to shake. That's what Souji told him to do when he met people...kind of. It wasn't somehting weird for him to see things that were different, since he was different himself.

"I'm Teddie! I'm supposed to be Goldilocks, whoever that is. Who are you?"

[ we acutally changed it at game start!! it's just we do day changes! they are on the community every Wednesday and Sunday!! ]

Well, a non-verbal signal goes pretty much entirely missed unfortunately. The extended hand isn't discovered until the oddity's almost-velvetish skinned nose runs into it amid sniffing at this new acquaintance. As for who he is, that's an easy one. Supposed to be...?

"Is Rrrrenne. Ah-pose be wha-t?"

Printed material is a little hard for him unless said material exists in essentially embossed ink...

Teddie frowned and looked at the other, trying to figure out what he was saying. He didn't know what to do when he didn't understand, except ask a million questions, but he didn't think he could do that here.

"Mr. Renne, you're in Arcanarum. It's an island where we have to pretend to be fairy tales..."

"Oooh. Rrrrenne go-t this. Ahn-d mah-gic thing...Tha-t."

He's not fond of magic, not in the least. Sniffing the air, the oddity then bobs his head toward the scent of magic. That scent originates from the unseen but feared pink thing on the floor several feet away.

"Rrrrenne noh do In-guh-lish good."

Frowning again, Teddie rubbed his neck slightly. Rushing in he grabs the compact and holds it up. "You mean this? Everything runs by magic here, I think. But you can imagine up things! Why don't you imagine up gloves or something to make you able to touch it?"

Chirp. Now that's an idea... Scratching his head, the little anomaly checks if he's got his original britches still. If he does have said britches with their bigger-on-the-inside pocket, that'd be quite fortuitous actually. If not? What he's thinking on may take a trifle longer than anticipated.

"Rrrrenne trrry tha-t. Eey-ess."

"You can try it so you can hold this!!" Teddie said, making sure to hold it for the other and keep it away until he could do something. After all, he couldn't have him keeling over or something!

"Let me know when you are ready!"

"Eee, than-k yeu. May-bee, if yeu wahn-t, Rrrrenne do cook fohrrr yeu."

In exchange for assisting him so he won't get sick and/or die? Yes, he'd cook for this stranger in a heartbeat.

"You don't have to do anything for me!!" Teddie said cheerfully, looking at the other and giving him a pat on the head. It's what sensei did to him when he was good.

"But I'll help however I can, Renne. It's really hard to not be able to communicate because you can't even touch the communicator!"

[ he would be wearing the outfit of his denizen, Garrett! ]

"Eee...Rrrrenne do."

He's...not got his britches. Damn. Well, he'll stay in the circus tent of a shirt for now. There's an expression on his face though, along with a flash of bright colour across his skin. His britches aren't here, which means his possessions aren't here.

"It...ta-ke lon-g time naow."

A long time? For what?" Teddie said, loooking curious. Moving over to Renne, he very carefully looked around. The guy didn't have any pants, and Teddie didn't have any to give him...

"Do you need me to find something for you while you stay here? I don't mind going out and getting things for you since you're allergic or something to magic!"

"Rrrrenne trrry, fin-d. Rrrrenne noh fin-d...Brrrrit-chiss. It got thin-g Rrrrenne need, so Rrrrrenne noh ge-t si-ck frrrrom mah-gic. If noh go-t, Rrrrenne need make morrrre."

And the look on his face implies that making more of this mysterious stuff found only in the pocket of his britches from scratch is a trifle harder than simply replicating it with a sample. As for this kind soul...

"Yeu noh go-t to. Rrrrenne say than-k yeu, ahnd if yeu wahn-t, Rrrrenne do cook fohrrr yeu."

"Okay! You cook, I'll find you pants!!" Teddie said, grinning greatly at the other. He wasn't sure about what to do about the communicator, but he sighed and kind of looked at the other.

"Do you want me to...take this with me." He held up the mentioned object.

"Rrrrenne do tha-t. Please?"

He'd...rather not anyone see what happens if he were to mistakenly touch the thing and get a bad reaction. Rather, he's an imp of action so to speak. Sniffing about, the anomaly poses another question. He intends to produce a king's feast for this stranger.

"Rrrrenne fin-d pla-ce to do cook, wherrrre, yeu know?"

No problem!! I can take care of things for you, for sure." Teddie looks proud to be able to help the other, even though he seems a little concerned for his friend's plight.

"You cook in the kitchen, Renne. Over here!"

"Rrrrenne say than-k yeu."

And with that, he's off sniffing and trailing to find th ekitchen. Once found, Renne sets to work straightaway. The sounds of things clattering, slicing, dicing, clanging and soon, sizzling, echo from the room. It's all rather rhythmic and occasionally, the sound of a bell chimes out -- Guide bells. He uses them as time devices whenever he works in a kitchen since he can't see to tell if things are ready.

It isn't long before a savoury scent drifts forth on the air, accented by the sound of this oddity chirping a sea shanty he'd learned from his days at sea.

Teddie adventures off for some pants in the meantime. While it took some effort, he found a few pairs from the tailor (and happened to not make the man to happy when he didn't pay). Going back to the other's place, he smiled when he opened the door, smelling the food.

"Renne! I brought you pants!!"

"Eee?"

The departure of his new companion isn't noted with much but his return? It gets a chirp and Teddie is greeted with a strong scent of savoury stew, bread and of course, a sweet for dessert. He hopes you're hungry!

Teddie grins at all the food. He loves to eat and the human/shadow has a bottomless pit of a stomach, so he didn't mind starting to eat fairly soon. However, he makes sure to give the pants to Renne first, looking proud of himself.

"I hope those fit!"

"Rrrrenne say than-k yeu, Ted-Eee."

Teddie gets a brief little nosing as his paws recive said pants. Now to try these things on and hope his leg shape can fit these without damaging them. His leg and foot structure had often in the past made it difficult for him to find suitable trousers.

And no. He's not about to try finding a dress. Not after his last experience doing so.

"You're welcome! I'm glad to help~" Teddie said with a grin, moving over to the food. After getting a bowl, he took the things and began to eat, sitting at the table and looking really excited about being able to eat all this food.

"So Renne." He said around his mouth full of food, "Where are you from?"

"Hee."

Hey, check that out. The pants fit! They're a little longer than he's used to but that's easily taken care of. Now, he only hopes Teddie likes his lunch. As for the question of where he's from, Renne answers with a low-voiced solemnity.

"It noh be heeerrrre noh morrrrre."

The statement is a reminder for him, but it's one he's long used to. So he decides to turn it into curiosity of his own.

"Wherrrre is yeu frrrrom?"

"I'm from the TV world!" Teddie said honestly, even though Souji may or may not have told him not to say that. Smiling to Renne with food in his mouth, he made sure to chew slowly and swallow before speaking again.

"Well, I'm from Inaba, Japan. My Sensei is from there and he takes care of me"
