"You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality."

I. Exploring Main Street! Take a trip through a little town taken straight from 1890's America. Visit the shops, dine at the restaurants- but don't forget you are here on a mission. As an Apprentice, you will need to gather some supplies. A weapon, or tool for producing magic.

But we understand if that corn dog cart on Market Street is your first stop.

II. Apprentice Class 101! Practice your spell casting and weaponship on the open commons behind the Firehouse. Sparring, casting or just general confusion abound here. Try not to hit anything or...anyone, the paint on the infirmary is still drying.

III. Look out! A level 2 corroded monster has managed to get onto Main Street! Protect the citizens and defeat the cur, and please watch the damage, the paint is still wet!

IV. One Little Spark! Go ahead, show us the strength of your imagination and come up with your own scenarios. Just, stay out of the Corroded Lands...if possible.

Rose could sing a song about that. Her two best friends from school couldn't stand how much Rose wanted to travel and get away from London, and one even went so far as to claim to have slept with Rose's boyfriend to get back at her for leaving them, and the other tried to steal any other boy Rose liked. Not that it would stop Rose from considering them friends. She's pretty forgiving, albeit hot-tempered.

"Really?" Neat! Well sad for Adam and Barbara, but at least they got Lydia with it. Silver linings and all that. "Cool," a quiet laugh. "I kept trying to get one of my best mates to realize I was there, could see him, but it was kind of dangerous too. Less... magic though. More..." a face scrunch... "Temporal dimension shifts?? Which I mean... sure what's the difference? I couldn't tell you!" Rose laughed. "But I guess more physical jiggery pokery, like Adam and the models, than just crossing your fingers and feeling it from inside your blood or whatever."

Lydia hadn't even exactly gotten to boys, yet. She was kind of edging toward it, carefully, just beginning to feel confident enough in who she was to think maybe she might be able to like someone else. Having watched her parents' marriage fall apart had given her a ringside seat to some pretty harsh lessons about love, and watching her father fall for Delia had given her even more. And that was even without the almost-shotgun-wedding.

"Dimension shifts? Really? I mean - I guess I shouldn't be surprised that can happen, since we're here, and since that's sort of what the Neitherworld is. Kind of. I think. The Handbook reads like stereo instructions, it's super boring. But did he notice you? I hope he did. I ... it would be nice if people who were close to you would be able to tell you were there. Otherwise that must have been really lonely."

"Neitherworld?" Rose winced. "No, he didn't. I thought he was the only one who could help me fight the Darkness, the stars going out and all, but I guess unless he comes here, I might never get to see him again."

She was trying hard not to think too much on that for obvious reasons, and gave a weak grin, "But I'm still happy to have any friends in the fight, yeah?"

Princess powers activate ....sorta, lol

Lydia knew that sinking, awful fear. She had it about Adam and Barbara. And her dad. And...maybe even Delia, a little. She squeezed Rose's hand to stop her running, and pulled her into a hug.

"Me, too. And I definitely know you're here. ... It'll be okay."

100% XDDDD

Rose is vaguely overwhelmed in a strange sort of way, and just completely melts into the hug. Lydia, you are the worst fail goth ever, and Rose loves her completely. Woe to anyone who even vaguely tries to hurt Lydia they will have to fight through the Bad Wolf herself. At minimum.

Rose is a little flustered and tries to think of something to cover for it and just gives up, the hug is enough. "It will, definitely," she promised quietly. "Come on," she laughed softly, reminded all too well of herself at that age, trying to take to care of adults, and even now, Rose usually was trying to take care of people hundreds or thousands of years older than her rather than letting them guard her. Old habits, it would seem. "Can't keep those ghosts waiting, yeah?"
