KIRI

[Yep, Elle's devoted a whole page to her magical book to scrawling her partner's name all over it in big letters.

After the ink dries, she's already getting on to approaching the townsfolk.......who seem to be avoiding her gaze? Wow, rude. At least she's used to it, but the problem is that she doesn't have her white uniform on. How on earth do they know she has Troy? And on that topic-- why is she not dead yet? Maybe exposure to Flare helped to minimize the amount of toxins in her body. Wait, no, that doesn't makes sense considering she drained Sister Heine of her toxins. This is all so confusing.

But nevertheless, her first priority is finding Kiri.

Anyone who's watching from the sidelines will notice some of the human inhabitants making way for her, although the animals seem okay with her presence. However, Elle's not quite used to seeing so many varied animals all in one place, and she's not about to approach them. (She has no clue that some of them talk as well.)]

Ah, excuse me? [Aaaaannnnd ignored. Ugh.] Has anyone seen a boy-- blond hair, red eyes? He usually wears a yellow and black shirt?

...Right, that's great to hear. It's good that you have a second chance now. [They may be strangers, but Elle still cares nonetheless. She even brightens up a bit.]

I may have saw your conversation with Lamb in the book. About the shadow? I think you're right, though. It's better to be who we are rather than try to play some role we've been given. You should do what you feel is best. [But wow, hopefully she doesn't appear to be creepy with this whole spying thing.]

My name is Elraine, by the way. Although I'm supposed to be the 'kumiho', if you feel like using that instead. [Since it seems all the townspeople have.]

[ He looks pretty surprised that she read it, but not really bothered. Well, he looks kind of bothered, and annoyed, but it's annoyed at the book and his "role". Not her. ]

Elraine. Got it.

[ He's not going to call her that, not after what she said about the roles. Or unless she asks him to. ]

I don't have a name yet.

[white_fairy]

[It's hard to believe that somehow a person about her age could go without a name for so long. Although she could challenge the notion, Elle is quite for a moment.]

Would you like help choosing one? Or do you want to find your own name?

[She's not sure what to call him otherwise, since he seemed so against being called Shadow.]
