Isabelle Mercer     It's evening out in Mullonde's grander inn's where Faruja lovingly made a reservation for the archaeologist to stay if she needed. Seeing as she's done a bit of work already in Ivalice, it didn't behoove her to head back to France just yet, enjoying the wine and the view from her window. A smile is given as she swirls a glass of that Burmecian wine, a sip... and a content sigh. "I'm sure there's a lot of wineries in France that would love to try this bottle on for size." she mutters, moving towards the bed...

    She sits upon it with a heavy thump, bouncing the briefcase that was lying near the pillows, "Only a few days with them and already I've seen more than any normal person would have..."
Tomoe Tomoe had heard that Isabelle would be staying in Mullonde, and she wanted a chance to talk to Isabelle when there wasn't mayhem at hand. She was still in armour but that wasn't entirely uncommon here. She had however banished her weapons. There was non need to be visably armed as the Salamander woman came up to the door of the room. She then knocks "Isabelle? You mind a guest? It's Tomoe."
Isabelle Mercer     There's a clink of glass upon table, and the sound of liquid pouring into said glass as the knock upon her door catches her attention. That familiar voice is heard and she hmms, "I do not mind, make your way in, the door is unlocked my dear." she picks up the glass and wanders to a small table in the room, picking up a second glass upon the way. "Ah, I hope you don't mind if I have a drink. Last little adventure was quite harrowing." she chuckles a bit, moving to sit upon that chair.

    "So what brings you by, Tomoe? And I have to say, it's good to have at least one familiar face in this city." a chuckle, "So come, sit down, let's chat."
Tomoe Tomoe smille as she entered and she ducks a bit. Tomoe is pretty tall as she does so. "It's fine, I can get the need for that. I have some close friends who like to once and a while. Given what we lived through I can't fault them." She'll move to find a spot to sit down. "I know I get looks I blame my ears." She seems amused about that. "So what has you staying over here? Just curious about Mullonde and it's people?"
Isabelle Mercer     "Never seen a tall woman such as yourself, Tomoe." she comments, offering the seat in front of her. She reaches over and grabs the wine bottle once more and pours up a small bit in it, a 'taste test' version. "I don't blame anything, you're actually quite nice looking. As for me, I was still in the area after that event, and Mullonde has that certain... air to it that's got me all intrigued. Not to mention Sir Faruja's paying for the inn room, I might as well use it!"

    "They were a bit shocked, pardon the pun, when I came in as lightning. I never had so many stares and 'Lady Esper' spoken to me... it's like I became some sort of figure person around... but maybe it'll pass. I hope it does..."
Tomoe Tomoe say "True I guess I seen some taller than me." Even without her Avatar? Tomoe was pretty darn tall all things considered. "Fair enough the food's got to be interesting here I will admit. Food pretty different in a way. Most of it back home is pretty heavily processed. There some of the stuff you can buy in the market would cost a heck of a lot more. Also Faruja's been a fairly generious sort I found."

She seems amused at the mention of how the locals reacted. "I forgot about the Espers. They are ... beings of magic if I recall right? I have only seen a few brifly summoned and that was a while back. Who knows honestly, funny though? My world has no magic at all and honestly is unremarkable save for a few things in the field of computers."
Isabelle Mercer     "Ah, forgive me for not being a gracious host. How are you doing? It has been a day or two since we last seen each other, though, this would be our first true meeting without the throes of adventure looming at our every footstep now." she gives a brief little nod at the comment of Faruja, swirling that wine glass again, "From what I understand they are."

    A light shrug is given, "Computers? Like that internet thing people keep talking about over the radio?" she questions, "And that email?" she gives a bit of a chuckle, "We don't have anything like that where I'm from, and only now magic's making itself known again... At least, it made itself known to me."
Tomoe Tomoe says "Honestly I have been taking to the simulators at the HQ honestly I have things I need to work on. At least you had a choice in your first outing? I and my friends? We didn't, but that's over now. Yes Computers Given when your from they are really only in the hands of big companies and governments? I have seen drives from that time on my world. I guess it could seem to be magic? With what the internet enables, sufficently advanced technology might as well be magic. They have haven't they. I'm not sure I could deal with having to time share my body to be honest."
Isabelle Mercer     Isabelle gives Tomoe an inquisitive look, "I wouldn't say I actually had /much/ of a choice during my first encounter, unless you mean with those Grimm." she gives an idle shrug and sips again, eyeing the untouched glass. She shakes her head a bit, "From what I know, yes. But it's okay." she turns to look at her briefcase, "That has everything I need in it anyways, minus my backpack of course." she gives a bit of a grin at it. "Ah, such a wonder digs are."

    "Ah, but I think I'm getting off track, for what purpose did you come to visit, not just for idle chatter, right?" she questions, giving the Salamander that inquisitive gaze once more, "And your offer of help earlier, I'd like to inquire on what /help/ you'd be offering me, my dear." that gaze turns into a smile, "And are you going to have some wine or am I going to have to take it back?"
Tomoe Tomoe says "Fair enough but when it came to going out after you did, right? Me? I wanted to catch up with you honestly and as for that? Getting to know the multiverse better, or even my sword arm if you need it for finding things on your world. Who knows what might be lurking in the shadows if magic's on it's way back in, right? My apologises on that." She'll make for the wine and start to sip at it. "Mmm not too bad and thank you. Also if you had questions in general about the multiverse I'd be happy to offer that as well or even if you say wanted a sparring partner."
Isabelle Mercer     Isabelle gives a few nods here and there, yawning slightly, "Perhaps I can take up that offer some other day. If you'll excuse me though, it /is/ getting a bit late and I do want to get some rest before I set off back to France." she gives a brief chuckle, eyeing the bed, "We'll pick this up later, shall we?"
