Reverie

[moonlitrequiem]

Who; Yin and OTA
What; Yin is spying around the city to familiarize herself, and possessive over her new item that sprouted, plus any ideas anyone might be interested in, willing to do starters
Where; The fountain / anywhere with water
When; Anytime, backdating is good
Warnings; Blindness, spying with specter, will add as needed


Fountain Spying
Anyone passing by the fountain will find a short, thin young woman at the fountain. Her hands are dipped inside the water, as far down as she can put them.

Some might see a transparent, ghost like figure pop up out of the water, with what could be eyes and a mouth. The spirit looks at anyone around and studies them, carefully.

Anyone is welcome to approach her and ask her what she's doing. Yin will be left having to simply say the truth, as she isn't programmed to lie, and thinking along those lines isn't something Dolls can do, typically.

There are other places the spirits might show, like puddles, leaky facets, glasses of water, pots, anything with water. Maybe they see nothing particular interesting, but perhaps they spot things they should not be privy to.


Trinket
Yin wasn't sure about it, but since others had mentioned it, she did plant the seed that was delivered to her.

When it sprouts, and when she gets to the inside of it, she has to stop.

She can only see what she has by using water to look at it. Once she sees what it is - a photo of her, a black cat in her arms, and not far from them, a man dressed all in black with a deadeye stare - she never goes anywhere without it. She typically isn't capable of being possessive, so hopefully no one asks to see it.

She might not seem like herself if they do, by pulling the image away and shaking her head. Not this one, no.

Wildcard: Anything else? A request? She isn't the easiest to interact with, but I'm willing to discuss.



[OOC: Will do [, (, past, present, prose, whichever is most comfortable - I will follow. Feel free to contact me on plurk metaljean, on this journal, or discord midknightcat for ideas or plotting.]

Harry's seen people under the control of others; vampire thralls, humans enchanted by faeries, personalities dominated by demons or worse. There's a sort of vacantness in their eyes that he sees reflected in Yin's and it gives him pause. He's not sure if those situations would describe Yin's, or even if that control was something she faced here or at home, but he was leaning toward the latter.

She seemed completely out of her depth.

"Yeah? How so?"

[moonlitrequiem]

It isn't like that for Yin, but every part of her is muted, resorting in that hollow look, hollow emotions, slower thoughts, careful and deliberate movements.

"No one seems to know about Dolls and Contractors," Yin resorts to the most obvious point, speaking slowly. It's different, for her. "And the moon. We no longer have a moon back home."

[harrythelizard]

Dolls and Contractors? "You can add me to the list." The way she put them both, they sounded like titles rather than simple words. "Wait, what happened to the moon?"

[moonlitrequiem]

They are, in fact, titles, in a way. They are no longer just humans.

As for the moon, Yin's lips quiver, like they intend to change direction, but it doesn't work out, in the end. Her usual lack of expression will have to do for a frown.

"It vanished. No one knows how, or where it went."
