[ When the NV turns on, Ella isn't really paying attention to it - though her intention might have been to use it, that thought is derailed by the chatter of several others nearby. ]

No - no no, I don't need - Excuse, me could you please stop pushing baskets at me, I don't want your brochures. Really, I appreciate it but - [ They are totally not listening. ]

No, thank you that's kind of you but could you just ... take... these -- but I - [ Yea, Ella, keep trying to talk over the company representatives. With a clatter, she drops the NV, and it now shows a crooked image of Ella with her arms full of baskets from AGI and SERO both, looking a bit lost, frustrated, and confused. Yet she perseveres! ]

I'm just trying to say - this is really too much so - oh! [ Aaand the bundle of baskets in her arms abruptly topple over when she loses her grip, tumbling onto the floor, papers scattering everywhere. Those representatives? Totally off to harass another newcomer. Help her? That's silly. ]

Could you h- oh, no, of course not, yeah, no walk away, that's just great... thanks. No, thank you,I've got it, not that you were lifting a finger to help or anything...

[ Sighing, Ella kneels to gather up what was foisted into her arms, though she catches sight of the NV recording. ]

... Is it always this...chaotic?

[ Maybe she can give this stuff to someone else. What she really needed was warmer clothing. ]

[Whoa. Wait. Wait. Isn't that Ella?]

[It's definitely Ella. Has to be. Not only is the appearance spot-on, but so is the behaviour.

[But . . . she's acting like she doesn't remember this place. If she doesn't . . . this could be difficult. Doesn't matter. She forgot once before, and they'd gotten through that. Doing it again isn't ideal, but if it's what he has to do, then he will.]

Video 3/3

[icy_heavens]

[But he might as well confirm it, right?]

You don't remember this place, do you?

[ella_of_frell]

[ Oh hey! A dwarf! O... wait, a beardless dwarf? Maybe he's an elf. ]

Remember? [ She pauses from picking up papers and suchlike, peering at the NV curiously. ]

Should I? I mean, I've never been here before in my life.

[motioned]

—Ella? You're back?

voice;

[ella_of_frell]

Back?

Sorry, do I know you?

voice;

[motioned]

—Oh.

I guess, um, I guess you don't. But, hey - do you need any help? You seemed kind of overwhelmed.

[makeflowersgrow]

[WAIT. Is that Ella? Eponine's on her NV straight away.]

Madame? Madame Ella? You are back. See! I knew I had not murdered you. Madame, you must come now and see Madame Hattie. You can tell her I did not kill you.

[ella_of_frell]

[ ... nnnnnnnnnnoooooooooooooo that is exactly what she does NOT want to do, is see THAT witch. ]

Murdered me? What are you talking about, I think I'd know if I was killed.

... Probably. [ TOTALLY ignoring that last part haha. ]

How do you know my name, anyway?

[You might not have noticed him before, or maybe he was never there until just now, but he sits on top of the bleachers, casually now. His staff just sort of resting beside him]

My my, Miss Ella. You've returned.

Action

[ella_of_frell]

[ And just when she had stacked things up so nicely too! She actually jumps in surprise at the voice, looking over her shoulder. ]


....So I've been told -- who...are you? [ AND WHERE DID YOU COME FROM she was almost POSITIVE he hadn't been there a moment ago! ]

Video

[servingmichael]

[He's figured out Ella doesn't remember being here.]

Are you safely inside now?

[ Fortunately by the time Raphael's contacted her on this, she has successfully made it to the apartment. Though she's still a bit overwhelmed and at a loss, she isn't lacking in manners. ]

Yes, I am - thank you. There was some talk about monsters or something that come out at night - is that true?

[laurice]

Ella!

[Larry peers into the NV in confusion and the slightest touch of disbelief. That was certainly Ella.]

Of course it is, this is Siren's Port!

[video]

[ella_of_frell]

[ Ella blinks back at the NV, quirking a brow slightly. ]

... Okay, well that answers that... but, who are you?

video;

[paterelohim]

Ella!

[He's honestly happy to see her, but becomes very chill after his initial grin.]

You missed a lot at work.

[ella_of_frell]

[ Such friendly people! Ella smiles, a little unsure. ]

Hi --! Er... Sorry, but... who are you?

Wait, work? What work?

[mostbeautiful]

Ella, my dear. It's good to see you. I thought we'd lost you for a little while. How have you been?

[ella_of_frell]

Ah - well actually, as it happens you did. According to what I've been told and the proof I saw I was here two months ago, and got sent away. Today is my first day back - and I'm afraid I don't know who you are; I'm sorry.

[Voice]

[moveslikestrider]

No, the chaos part pretty much settles unless you go out at night. Got it or need a hand?

[Voice]

[ella_of_frell]

Well that's good to know - I guess it's only like this when people arrive here, huh?
I think I've got it now though, thank you!

[Sheila's smart enough to watch everyone else bump into Ella first. She'd been so shocked by the girls' murder that she'd been rendered silent for a great majority of the month. Her tone is restrained, friendly.]

'Tis oft a hubub in that locale. A great amount of foot traffic o' the Port runs there.

Hast thou found lodgings?

[Video]

[ella_of_frell]

[ OOC: She wasn't actually murdered ^^; Unless someone told Sheila that >.>a; ]

Yes, someone was kind enough to direct me to where the apartments are, thanks.

Laaate.

[canfindrope]

I think so.

It's kind of confusing, isn't it?

Yay Red :D

[ella_of_frell]

It is, a little. I've kind of prided myself on being able to adapt to situations, but ... this is still a bit much to adapt to.
