01 CON ● ACTION ● SIX OF DIAMONDS
( Ever since Adalinda arrived here, she's mostly staying out of sight and keeping to herself -- keeping away from people. If anyone attempted to talk to her up to this point or noticed her hovering close to them while they spoke to someone, she'll feign needing to be somewhere else and get the hell out of there before she can be confronted.
Until she gets her bearings and knows she won't lose her cool at the sight of anything/anyone/whatever, she needs to be by herself and think over the events that lead up to this. Because seriously! Wings on her back? This fancy journal machine... thing that seems to be able to contact others after she carefully inspected it? This sure as hell isn't Germany.
She finally comes to the conclusion that this isn't some sort of elaborate scheme hatched out by the Woman or this is some sort of dying dream she's having. Good for her? Bad for her? Who knows. All she's certain of is that there's a lot of places to explore but sticks to the buildings and houses and you know. Signs of life in this place. Seeing how she's possibly the only member in the Doe gang to be here, she can't afford risking the possibility of getting in trouble until her friends arrived to get her. One way or another. )
I suppose I have to make the most out of this until James or Josie get me out of this mess. Hell, I'll take up Jacob's help if it means getting nagged by him. First things first...
( She gives a distasteful look at her new outfit. One thing she cannot abide is being stuck with the clothes she finds herself wearing and careful inspection of the place she woke up this morning reveals no signs of her original outfit.
So rain or not she'll be heading to the Clothing Shop to find something nicer to wear and then check out the Welcome Center after hearing about it here and there. For now she'll duck into buildings or go closer to houses in a subtle attempt to inspect them, scout them out. She's no Point Person but she reckons she can pick up a thing or two from what she may 'accidentally' see or 'overhear'.
That and the rain was annoying to deal with how it made her hair get so matted and tangled and she wanted as much shelter from the weather as possible until she got to her destinations. She has a feeling this place doesn't have her brand of hair products. Great. )

[action]
This is what they did to me last time. My morale's never been more buggered.
[action]
Oh mon Dieu. C'est affreux. Comment peut-on faire cela à un autre? Même John Doe pourrait être dégoûté par cette mesure. ( Ugh. Bad habit of hers. She touches his back lightly, looking at the words carefully like they would simply disappear in front of her. ) I'm so sorry this happened to you, my dear.
[action]
'Salright. I'd best head along, I suppose.
[action]
( After he assures her that she's alright and she's certain of that herself, she takes a step back and crosses her arm. She's not hugging herself. It's pretty cold out here and she's stuck in this ridiculous outfit. ) Would you like me to accompany you? In moments like these, I always found pleasant company a way to help me.

[Somehow, having the markings on his back confirmed gives the nerd a little more confidence.]
Going to go home. Have a cup of strong tea.
[action]
( She gives him a smile and the space he needs, giving a flourished and deep curtsy. ) I hope we see each other again, Jackie. I'll be keeping you on that promise you made.
