Yumemigaoka: Dreamer Union | OTA, limited to 1 person

[timelessmage]

[There's a new face at the Dreamer Union today.

Though she wears a Sandglass around her neck as a pendant, this black-haired girl has clearly never been here before. How old is she? She wouldn't seem out of place in a highschool. The way she casts curious glances about evokes… some level of unease, but it's honestly hard to tell for sure, because she looks so stone-faced.

The receptionist isn't here for some reason, so she's sort of hovering around without any apparent goal. That's when she spots you in the building's lobby. Without hesitation, she walks up to you and asks:]

Say. Where may I sign up to work as a Dreamer here?

Yumemigaoka: Domremy Apartments | OTA

[timelessmage]

[If you live in the Domremy Apartments, you may have caught wind of the new arrival—or perhaps you've noticed Chifuyu's comings and goings as she hauls furniture and various odds and ends into her new residence. Delivery people just dropped off a bunch of heavy-looking boxes in front of her door and she's trying to push them in with all of her weight, but it's a difficult task when you're scrawny like her…

A quick peek into the apartment reveals that it is, for the most part, empty, aside from a few pieces of furniture (clearly not in the places they should be) and a number of boxes haphazardly strewn about (several of them already opened, with their contents spilling out onto the floor). If you're passing by, perhaps you can introduce yourself or offer her a hand?]

Dream Sphere: Reflection Glades | OTA

[timelessmage]

[Though these parts of the Dream Sphere are unfamiliar to Frieren, she was able to get the lay of the land quickly thanks to her many years of experience as a Dreamer. This place looks quite safe, and it's rather similar to one of her favorite haunts from before she moved to Yumemigaoka—in other words, an ideal spot to practice magic with minimal Torment interference.

However, she's not working on any kind of combat abilities right now. Or at least, it doesn't seem like it? She's crouched in the middle of a clearing, tapping the tip of her staff to the grass before lifting it up slowly, glowing energy gathering at its end. The magic takes a vague flower-like shape for a split second, then dissipates into the air almost immediately.

She tries this again and again, with variations for the speed of her movement and the amount of energy she gathers. Sometimes, she even forgoes the staff entirely and gently touches the dirt with her fingers instead. But no matter how she changes things up, she's never satisfied with the results (or lack thereof).

Even though she's absorbed in what she's doing, don't expect to be able to sneak up on her easily unless you can somehow conceal your magical presence. If you're not inclined to interrupt her, she'll eventually sit down with a sigh and the barest hint of a frown as she lays her staff by her side, deep in thought.]

Dream Sphere: Abandoned Dojo | OTA

[timelessmage]

[If you've come to practice at the Abandoned Dojo, you may sense that you're being… observed. Frieren's sharp, appraising gaze is trained on you (from the top of the courtyard walls, the shadow of a tree, or the corner of the training hall), and it almost feels like she's reading you on a deeper level, somehow… But she seems perfectly content to watch you use your powers without intervening. If it's bothering you, you might have to say something…

Come at another time, and it'll be Frieren who's training instead. She's using her staff to fire round after round into a straw dummy inside the dojo, constantly on the move, as if to perfect her aim. It's clear from how confidently she moves that she's a highly experienced Dreamer. When you step into the room, she turns to you.]

Are you here to train?

[…D-Does she want to try her hand at live target practice?]
