[Text + Action] Backdated to January 15th

[Upon retrospect this is a pretty terrible idea. Even if she's using text over video, asking for some help with this studying thing might not be the best of ideas. She'll have to meet with one or more of these people eventually. What if she's still stuck in this dumb magical girl outfit? That's embarrassing. It's already bad enough that she has to go out in public. And it's not like she can wear a huge coat and hat indoors.

But on the other hand having a vespa sitting around collecting dust isn't going to help her much. She's got to make the most out of this world.]

Hey everyone. My name's Marie and I'm new here. I've gotten the basics down pretty well, but I was wondering if someone could do me a favor. I've got this Hovervespa, but no liecents. [She means license.] Could someone with one tutor me? This book I got is a little overwhelming.

[And that's all. Pretty straightforward.

Meanwhile, for those of you who are in Apartment Number 26, Marie can be found sitting at a table reading the aforementioned book so she can get her license. Nothing too strange, except she's completely covered by a big blanket. It's almost like she's trying to hide what she's wearing...

Because she totally is. Worse part is she thinks she's being subtle.]

I'm seriously concerned about the amount of people who can't drive taking free vehicles.

[purseowna]

Why's it matter as long as I pass the test? It's not like I'm going to drive it before then.

[THE BOOK DOES A GOOD JOB OF MAKING YOU CARE ABOUT SAFETY if nothing else.]

[boobwindow]

As long as you do read the instructions and pass the test.
I'm not sure everyone will do that.

[ Somebody please think of the people from different eras, too. ]

[purseowna]

Why would they do that? Isn't it dangerous if you don't know what your doing?

[boobwindow]

Some like to think they don't need it.

[purseowna]

That doesn't make it any less dangerous.

[boobwindow]

People do crazy things sometimes.

[purseowna]

Yeah, that's true. My friends back home are a bunch of weirdos. But even they wouldn't do something dangerous without good reason. Seems like there's still a lot more I don't know about humans.

[boobwindow]

What are you if not human?

[purseowna]

I don't really know how to describe that here. A divine being, maybe?

[boobwindow]

Do you mean a god?

[purseowna]

If I meant a god I would have said it. Like I said, I don't really know how to explain it.

[boobwindow]

Can't you try? It's kind of ambiguous.
Deity? Demigod? Immortal? Cosmic being? There's a lot one can presume from "divine being".

[purseowna]

So what if it's ambiguous? I'm me. That's all anyone needs to know.

[boobwindow]

Hey, if it's personal then you could have said that, too.

[purseowna]

It's not personal. [Maybe just a little.] It's just that I told you twice already that I don't know how to explain it. Asking me a third time isn't going to give me the ability to tell you. Unless you want me to give you a teal deer [TL;DR] about my world.

[boobwindow]

If you want? I'm not going anywhere for a while.

[purseowna]

[?]

You're serious.

[boobwindow]

I'm curious, but again, I'll let it go if needed.
"Marie" doesn't sound like a divine being's name.

[ That's a joke, but also not entirely a joke. ]

[purseowna]

Marie's not my "real name". It's what I went by when I lost my memories, but it stuck with me even afterwards. My "real name" is Kusumi-no-Okami.

[boobwindow]

[ Whoops.

She can connect with the "lost memories" bit. ]

I've never heard of anything like that before.
Do you have them back? Your memories.

[purseowna]

Yes. Most of them, anyway. It feels like there's still some things I don't know about myself, but they might just be things that don't apply to me.

[boobwindow]

You might learn what they are eventually.

[purseowna]

Hopefully. It's going to be kinda hard to fill out the information on my license form without them.

[boobwindow]

I'm sure imPorts are covered somehow for missing information.
