She bows, almost like a doll, despite the warm welcome. Her demeanor seams to change on a dime. The fear is lost from her eyes and she seems to just... accept everything. Like she's become something of an automaton despite being flesh and blood.
"...you speak in a southern accent, you're Caucasian, and you don't know what the USA is? A state is a large landmass governed by a government." Kuthaliara said, clearly confused
"I don't think I've ever heard a name quite like that before. I like it." Hikaru says in response.
"...I...uh...think my pa' said our village was a part of this...thing called Rome once." Ashe said blankly, giving her a small shrug.
"O-oh! So it's...like...a uh...kingdom! I...I've heard of those!" Ashe said. Seemingly a bit proud of that bit of knowledge.
"Those numbers indicate a specific year, in this case one thousand, seven hundred and seventy six years A.D."
"How polite! And what an interesting name you have. Mine is Jack. Jack Flynn, that is; Founder and CEO, well, I guess previous CEO, of Flynn Oil." Jack replied with a smile full of pride.
(Oh lol, but yeah that aint roman thats southern lol)
"Thank you..." She'd raise her body, nary a visible reaction towards the compliment but a small, almost unnoticeable smile.
"A pleasure..." She turns to the other and nods her head, though... seeing someone of influence in this world as well, causes her to flinch momentarily. Looks like one of the suitors her parents would arrange her to marry. She never did get assigned one. She shivers at the thought of such a future. But it looks like things have managed to catch up to her.
"Specifically around 1550 years ago, I believe."
"More likely, we aren't from the same times, perhaps even not the same timelines." Hyde responded
"True, true. If that is the case, it will be most interesting learning about the different cultures of each time period more in-depth." Jack said, interested in learning about the mysteries of the past yet to be discovered.
"...Um...emperor...?" Ashe said blankly.
"...Well I don' know much about it. Ain't never left my village." He said, giving her another small shrug.
(Inferior Caesar fr fr)
"Ah, so you're from early Rome, makes sense." Kuthaliara said with a smile
"...My pa named me Ashe. It's nice to meet you, ma'am." Ashe said, flashing her a soft smile.
Ashe pondered this, scratching his head.
"Touching... balls?" She tilts her head in a curious manner, though it looks as if she's fighting a certain expression underneath her mask of a face.
"Yes, touching balls!" Kuthaliara said enthusiastically, knowing full well the less then PG connotations of that
"It... seems we are from different points in time, yes. I was... born in 1950." Yuri explained, "I don't uh... know if you know what exactly that is, but... it's in the future."
"Huh...? Ah, right! I need to give you one to, Beetlejuice!" Ex said, a floating, neon-colored sphere manifesting in front of B (cause I forgot how to spell her name).
Beatelle Geuis reaches forward and gently taps her finger against the sphere. "Very well... I will... touch one of these balls..."
"A-Ah...."
"Ashe, so, Ashes to Ashes to Ashes?"
"I... I don't know. Feels like... my brain just downloaded an encyclopedia of someone else's life..." She admitted, breaking her monotone mannerisms in order to expel a more youthful voice and demeanor. As if a lock was broken on her soul.
"More than likely. I was born in 1988, a little over a millennia and a half after you died, or at least I assume."
"A shame. Let me give you a quick re-cap; he was an amazing general for the Roman army and was made Dictator. He wanted to become full-time emperor, but his best friend Brutus didn't like that, so he and a bunch of senators stabbed him to death. Kind of reminds me of how I died now that I say it out loud" Jack said, starting to think more about the events that transpired before his demise.
(So Azontr do the people who vore the spheres know the name and shit of who they vored?)
He nodded in response saying, "Yeah, same thing happened to me earlier. A lot of new information, although I actually did already know a good bit of it beforehand." He said remembering the hours he put into his research.
(Well that changes things)
"I remember this name from the archives... It's an Old World Myth. But it was lost to time. Only had bits and pieces of the full picture..." But it was a nice myth; a nice story. She didn't realize the Old World could be so perverse and odd. She liked that. It's not the kind of story she'd ever be allowed to watch. So many interpretations too. Abstract drawings, a motion picture, and an opera. All three flowing into her brain to create one narrative. She felt she understood this other life... and envied it's owner just a bit.
"The same thing here. Feels like years of leading and strategy just got put into my head (as well as a large abundance of orgies)."
"That makes sense, so, Yuri, who are you the Apostle of?" Kuthaliara asked
