sexyasmieu | PC: Nodd

[ Anise can be found exploring the new planet! She's on the outskirts of the city, looking out over the red cliffs and beyond. I'll say that she was smart enough to put on a coat for this and maybe I'll find a cute image later or something. ]

Wow... this really is an alien planet!

[ squinting at the winding paths below... ]

I wonder if there are monsters down there...

[ as soon as they're allowed, nodd is off the ship and exploring the new planet. trees!!! so many trees!!! he loves this shit.

due to this week's effects, at present, his hair has gone full cursed princess mode--growing down to the floor without any interest in being cut. he has it braided and tucked into his belt.

perhaps he'll see anise at the bazaar. ]

Kid! Hold up.

[ they were possibly both headed toward the shopping concourse except no they aren't. a rift eats them whole.

the scene plays out with a much younger nodd crawling onto a beach, gasping, drenched. in the distance, Sir Friendmore's Naval Academy and Finishing School stands--an enormous set of buildings with barred windows to keep the unwanted children on the inside. this beach is on the opposite side of the campus's grounds from the actual docks where they keep the training fleet.

one of the first things the young, w e t nodd does is pick up a jagged stone and start hacking at his knee-length hair, currently plaited in anticipation of that long swim. he kicks the bundle into the lapping ocean before tearing out of the top layer of his school uniform. he ties the sleeves around his waist and starts to walk along the shoreline.

adult nodd, standing beside anise, frowns. thoughtful. ]

I forgot I was such a cute kid.

[ he was okay. ]

[ hey nodd, where the heck are you! anise is coming to find him after his group came back from whatever-the-heck. ]

You've still got all your limbs, right...?

[ he's awake by now, healed up from all physical, visible wounds of note. as for what's inside that tough noggin of his, well. it wasn't that great when he showed up on the eudora.

he's reading on his i.r.i.s. in another hour he'll be done with some post-pod observation (since he was so difficult) and allowed to leave. ]

[ insufferable? perhaps. day drunk? definitely. ready to pedalboat? yes. either he'll slip in first and pat the other seat with a pleading face to anise like pleaaaasse or he'll sneak in if he sees she's alone. whatever ratman option he gotta resort to. pedalboat time. ]

[ WHY IS IT COLD? nodd dresses in a big puffy jacket, scarf, and earmuffs that cover only about half of his extra-long ears. he liked winter! with snow and an open sky! but pure coldness with nothing else to offer? beh!

he has bongy in a baby bjorn bc it's SO COLD what if something were to happen to his son? ]

This ship needs to be decommissioned soooo badly.

[ let's go sailing! they're allowed to cruise on the surface with one of the cool high-tech boats, so that's where nodd has convinced anise to hang. he's actually a decent driver(?). ]

This is nice, at least. I like the water.

[ We've landed on the planet, and Anise is taking a look at this pink beach... ]

This would actually be really pretty if it wasn't for all the... you know.

[ Creepy shit!

But before Nodd can say anything in response, there's a void that opens up, throwing them into a memory (16:10 - 20:44)! (English captions can be toggled on Youtube. If the timing gets messed up, refresh and it should fix it!) ]
