voice test.

[justdefy]

This is a voice test for this loser here!!

If you'd rather I start just leave me a blank comment and I'll try to think up of a scenario. I just want to get a handle on his voice or something...

Comments

[nerifes]

[ KOYS PLS

no. she has, however, fallen into a fountain and had her own hair glow blue, so she promptly sits up to avoid further submersion. she's still sitting in the fountain, but the glow has died out as she looks back to Yuri. ]

U-um [ -- oh, dear, this is so embarrassing -- ] . . . yes.

[justdefy]

[ JEA PLS.

… he keeps looking a few seconds after the hair stops glowing, as if it'll spark to life or something again-- and then he's looking at shirley's face. like he should've been.

woah. ]

Thought I saw it all, but I guess not. [ glow-in-the-dark hair… underwater. ] Is there a reason for that, or is it just a looks thing?

[nerifes]

You mean you don't know?

[ but that's enough time in the water, so she carefully leaves the fountain. she is wearing a skirt, after all . . . and it isn't as though their existence is much of a secret anymore, so Shirley is open to sharing the details. ]

There's a reason. All Ferines' hair glow like this when we're underwater.

[ hope you don't think that's weird, Yuri. ]

[justdefy]

[ uhhhhh.

he's lost. and also stepping out the fountain when she does, wringing some of his hair dry. so much fun. ]

. . . I'm guessing that makes sense to you.

[nerifes]

[ do your wringing thing. the water is her element. ]

Does it make more sense if I say Radiant?

[justdefy]

A little better, since I actually recognize the word this time... though I have a feeling it's not in the way you're thinking of.

[ sure wishing water was his element. and maybe checking that a bit of his hair isn't glowing casually. maybe it's in the water--

nope. ]

[nerifes]

[ Nerifes forbid you be one of them. ]

Ah, well . . . Radiant is the name of our people. Ferines is our native term.

[justdefy]

[ wow. that's rude. yuri's too cool for your glowin hair anyway!! ]

In that case... Makes about as much sense as it did before. [ yep. ] I think I've got the basics of it, though. People named Ferines, and your hair glows. Is that about it?

[nerifes]

[ and then he drowned.

but that he gets it pleases her! she nods curtly. she's not the best at explaining, and she sort of tripped over it there. just to make sure, before she elaborates -- ]

That doesn't . . . bother you?

[justdefy]

[ jea, pls. only in zaude. ]

It's not something I've seen before, sure. [ though he notes this as if he's just learned the color of the sky.

it just is what it is. ] But I wouldn't say it bothers me. Should it?

[nerifes]

[ this is now zaude.

at that, she hastily musters up a response, as though he would find it bothersome if she doesn't say anything. ]

N-no! Not really. I'm just glad that you took it so well.
