Characters: Steiner, Terra, Blank, Celes, maybe other passengers on the Red Rose
Progress: Ongoing
Summary: After this thread, the Red Rose moves on to Daguerreo to pick up some more lost souls.
Location: Daguerreo
Date: November, 1803
Warnings: None

Steiner wanted to fly straight back to Alexandria. However, he had promised to pick up Blank in Daguerreo, and Terra had also told him that a friend of hers was trapped there too. So off they went to make a quick stop in Daguerreo.

"We shall make haste!" Steiner instructed his passengers. "Be ready to depart as soon as I return. Terra, come with me. The rest of you stay here."

Hopefully, his orders would actually be listened to. It didn't really matter as long as they found Blank and Celes. Steiner strode out of the airship and towards Daguerreo, keeping his eyes peeled for any sign of life.

Blank had only just received the text message, and as soon as he had he got up and began to jog in the direction he was sure it would be in. He was carrying some very old books under his arm, most prepared to take them home with him.

"He~ey! Rusty!!!" He called out, grinning as he ran up to Steiner. "Hey! Hope you're not planning on leaving without me. I have to get back to my lady, ya know!" Of course, by lady, he meant his beloved Prima Vista.

Celes nodded at Terra's reply and headed off with her, showing the other girl the various places she'd been exploring while trapped there for so long. "This place is so large, I keep forgetting exactly where I am within it. Every time I turn around, there's something new to see or do."

Steiner's face broke into a smile when Blank ran up to him. He did genuinely like the thief.

"Blank! Good to see that you are as well as ever."

Being pleased to see Blank, however, did not stop Steiner from immediately frowning when he noticed the books Blank carried.

"I hope you obtained permission to borrow those books!" Unlikely, he knew.

"I think I am a little jealous," Terra said to Celes with a faint smile as the General showed her around. "I woke up in Mysidia, and just had to walk back to Alexandria. It was easy, but..." A little shrug of her shoulders as she stopped to peer at a book. "It wasn't as exciting as what everyone else seems to have done."

Terra didn't begrudge their excitement, but a bit of her own might've been nice...

Blank gave Steiner a sheepish grin, his arm instinctively tightening around the books. "Of course! I wouldn't just take them without asking, what kinda guy do you think I am?" A thief, of course. And once a thief, always a thief.

"Besides, it's not like anyone else was using them... they were just sat there collecting dust," he stated, passing by the knight "So, when we leaving?"

"Hmph!" Steiner didn't believe him for a second, but there wasn't much use arguing.

"Wait a moment!" he said, as Blank seemed about to pass by. "Terra and Celes are somewhere in the library, searching for you. We must wait for them. Did you not pass them on your way?"

Celes glanced at Terra. She would gladly have traded any number of "exciting events" that had happened in her lifetime. "Next time something exciting happens, I'll be sure to drag you with me," she offered, in the closest thing that she'd come to joking in a long, long time.

"Not like waking up in a library is all that adventurous." Wrought with knowledge, yes, but not adventure.

Terra smiled at her friends joke, though the fact that she made it at all surprised the green haired woman. Celes seemed so serious most of the time. "I...would not have it any other way, is the expression I think?" She said before turning back to the books.

"I woke up in Mysidia. I'd already been there, even. An entire planet of places I've never been, and I wake up in one of the four I have..." She shook her head. "I guess I should be grateful I was not in danger, it's just hard."
