Alexa stared in bemusement at Veronika's defensive reaction to her simple observation. It's like the noble girl was trying to justify her happiness to herself instead of to Alexa. Smothering her giggles before it could appear, Alexa simply smiled a little wider and nodded to Veronika's 'explanation'. There's just something very cute about how the snobbish and proper little lady acted rather unlady like, and then tried to justify it while trying to act all proper again.
Upon reaching the pillar, the first thing that drawn Alexa's attention was the shield and sword that rested at its base. For some reason, upon seeing the weapon and shield, she did a mental dance and mental cheer that they found seemingly a better weapon. Kneeling, Alexa took the sword's handle and tried to lift it. Making a couple of experimental swings, she concluded that she'd need some training before she could use the sword properly.
Alexa undid her rope belt quickly and made a couple of knots to hold the sword as well. She re-positioned her dagger to her right side and slid the sword to its new holding on her left side. That done, she took the shield as well, whispering in apology to whoever spirits might still reside there. "I'm sorry, we'll be taking these. Hopefully they can help us to better staying alive."
With that done, Alexa started to look around as well, frowning when she noticed that there's still no sign of civilization. "I think we need to get to a higher ground. Shall we go up there?" She queried, pointing towards the nearby hill, with trees on the top.

It's awesome. ^ ^ And I agree, the current point of view from Veronika should be mostly around her, before slowly starting to pay attention to anybody else around her. Subtle and slow, I like that, it follows the character prior their unfortunate summoning, and slowly changed as the character matured.
Alexa watched anxiously as Veronika made her way down from the wall, the girl ignored Alexa when she tried to help so Alexa could only hope that she'd be okay. Once Veronika reached the ground, Alexa breathed a sigh of relief. When a small part of the wall crumbled to the ground, Alexa stared at Veronika in silence, hoping that it would convey to the other girl how lucky she was that the wall didn't fall apart when she was on it.
Upon hearing Veronika's reaction, the short haired girl rolled her eyes and shook her head. Really... what was she expecting from Veronika anyway? That girl live in a world of her own making it seemed. Oh well... hopefully she'll grow up soon.
Sighing yet again (She seemed to be doing a lot of this lately), Alexa followed Veronika in a more sedate pace. Watching the girl walked with springs on her step, the former gymnast let out a small smile. It's weird. She felt like she's ready to commit bodily harm to the spoiled girl before, and yet, there are times like these that showed a side of her that doesn't seem to stem from being spoiled, but simple innocence. It also made her feel like she's babysitting a grown up little kid.
It's also quite refreshing, if she's to be honest with herself. Since they both got here, it's almost like she's been playing the role of the pessimist and realist, while Veronika seemed to play the part of the ever optimist. Well, annoyingly snobbish and not-all-there optimist, but an optimist none the less.
When Veronika turned towards her and made that offer, Alexa shook her head at the bipolar girl's behavior resignedly. "If you want to carry it, be my guest. I doubt I'll get the chance to read it while we're walking anyway." She replied and put the book into Veronika's purse, which thankfully was big enough to fit the book in it. Why was she worrying about this snobbish girl again? Alexa looked at Veronika as they both starting to walk again. "You seem quite happy today, despite anything else. " She noted out loud.

Thanks! No problem, here's hoping you'll get better soon :)
Keep Eating!! O wO
So do I. ^w^ It's rare for me to get a chance at character building in the RP, so this is a good experience as well for me. :)
On another note, I have to go to a family event this weekend, so.. I might or might not be able to post a reply for the next 3 days. >.< I'll still try to post a reply, but if I do reply, it might be much shorter than what I usually posted.

Alexa stared at Veronika in disbelief at her 'genius' idea. Is this girl for real?
When she started to list what she needed for her morning ritual, Alexa gripped the book tightly and growled softly, closing her eyes again, she fantasized whacking Veronika over her head with the tome. Maybe if she hit her hard enough, the spoiled girl could grow some common sense... or at least back in touch with reality... THIS reality, not the one she probably daydreamed on in her mind where everything is all flowers and good.
Hearing her name being called again, Alexa opened her eyes and turned around, preparing to snap at the infuriating girl. Her sharp response died on her lips, however, and immediately replaced with panic when she saw Veronika climbed on top of a half collapsed wall that looked dangerously unstable. "He-Hey!! Careful there! Careful!!" She exclaimed, hastily coming over while praying that the younger girl wouldn't fall off the wall.
A pillar? Well, they don't really have any other clue for direction, so that's as good as any for the moment. "Alright, alright. We'll check it out soon. Just... get down here, OK? Slowly, Veronika." Alexa told her worriedly, her previous annoyance was forgotten as she tried to get Veronika to get down from the wall safely. They're nowhere near civilization, as far as she could tell, and it could be a BIG problem if either of them got hurt.
Like it or not, Veronika is the only friend she has in this strange world, and the thought of having to go alone should anything happened to the other girl, chilled her to the bone.

*giggling like crazy* xDDD I'd say you're doing a pretty good job so far. Veronika is definitely pushing the limit of Alexa's patience soon, and I like it! xD
Hmm, a lil insight if I see this from my char's Point of View: Alexa's confused by Veronika behavior. There's no questioning that Veronika is a spoiled girl, but there are times where it feels Veronika's spoiled behavior was more like a child's naivety, If you know what I mean. So it's like, one moment Snobbish Veronika appeared and complained about this and that, and just as Alexa started to feel really annoyed, Childish Veronika appeared with her naive behavior, taking the wind out of Alexa's building rant sail and she didn't know what to make of the other 'bipolar' girl.
I LOVE IT! ^W^

While Veronika was gushing over the finding and taking all the credits for it, Alexa closed her eyes again and started counting backwards from 10. With each words Veronika spoke, Alexa felt reminded of just why she used to avoid nobles and the likes. Granted, not all of them behaved in snobbish manner, but... it was common enough with most nobles that she figured it's easier to simply not tangling with them than trying to find one that's not grating her nerves.
And here she was, stranded in the middle of nowhere, with a noble that, if the rumor was true, was the most spoiled, egoistical, snobbish girl in their year. 'Just my luck...' She thought sourly, watching the other girl complained about not taking the book the night before. As she opened the book, Alexa peered at the content curiously. Hey, if she had to be the one to take it off the corpse, at the very least she deserved to know what it was about, right?
The writing style looked old. It's written in English at least, thank God for small miracles, but the way the characters was written, it seemed older than middle age style. Alexa blinked in surprise when the book suddenly snapped shut, and immediately dropped her face to her hand upon hearing Veronika chattered on about finding cafe or restaurant.
Really, girl, seriously?
Accepting the unexpected offer of the book, Alexa watched Veronika warily. Did she forget where they were at the moment? "Ah... and how do you propose you do that? In case you've forgotten, we're currently in the middle of nowhere." She reminded the noble.
