[ Dreamer Zeal is new here. Incredibly new. So new the fantastical, dreamlike state of the world she's now inhabiting not only hasn't worn off, but still excites and amazes. She can first be seen walking through the city staring at various buildings in their differing riotous pastels, every now and then stopping to examine a figment up close, her eyes full of sparkling wonder. ]
Ohhhh...
[ Her straightforward path eventually leads her to the edge of the city where an endless ocean seems to stretch out in front of her, and her already sparkling eyes widen. ]
Woooah! It's so big, and in every direction! I wish I had a swimsuit.
[ That's when something occurs to her! This is a dream, right? You don't need a swimsuit to swim in a dream! Sometimes in her dreams she simply appears underwater, and doesn't even need to breath! ]
Hahaha, here I go!
[ She lets out a cry, one hand on her hip with the other pointing to the sky, the other aiming at the expanse of water in front of her. She takes as quick a dash as she can, and then jumps high into the air, laughing wildly in joy at the height and distance she manages. Tilting over she holds her arms out towards the water--
...and slams nearly face first into the ground while learning this 'ocean' is only ankle deep. ]
Ow, ow, ow, ow!
[ She cries out again, covering her face with her white gloved hands and rolling around in the water, but it only takes a moment before she's laughing again.
But then, what's this? Words of encouragement! ]
Oh!
[ Zeal pops back up to her feet in an instant, eyes going even wider than when she'd seen the ocean, as what can be described as nothing less than a celebrity stands before her! It's an awestruck expression Ai-Doll has no doubt seen many times before, but this particular newbie seems to recover from being starstruck quicker than most! ]
Ahahaha~! It totally is overwhelming; isn't it awesome!?
[ She holds her arms out and spins as if to motion towards everything at once, jogging over afterwards back to the 'shore' with a splish splash of her boots in the shallow water. ]
First I wake up in a dream and almost get murdered by a nightmare,
[ There is exactly zero worry, fear, or regret in her voice at this. ]
then I get saved by real life heroes, and now I get to explore this amazing place and learn to save people myself!
[ She's so excitable that she hardly seemed ready to let Ai get a word in edgewise, though she does momentarily calm, leaning in to note. ]
Oh, but be careful about the water. It's super shallow and you can't swim in it at all!
[ It doesn't seem to occur to her that a consummate veteran literally used to publicly advertise the Dreamer Union would know this already. ]
Slumbering City
