Mission 1: Explorations

[lookouthalifax]

Characters: Montblanc, everyone else you know. if you want.
Format: Anything up to and including indecipherable grunts.
This log is: Wide open!
Location: Anywhere. Well, probably not any dorms but the Red one, but he's a busy guy! He'll at least glance at everything. Backdated to the first day.
Summary: Montblanc explores! The first thing you do when you're in unfamiliar territory is to learn what's what. Or what's where, actually. The point is, Montblanc has is going to be having a good time doing everything from figuring out how to use computers (NOT LIKELY TO WORK) to reaching the end of the sea wall.
Warnings: Kupokupo!

He had prepared an itinerary as soon as he saw a map of the grounds, and was following it determinedly. He explored the entrance area first, slipping unobtrusively--as unobtrusively as a moogle in a human world could--through the strange halls to see if he couldn't get a little more information about the game and, more importantly, how he could escape it. He couldn't recall why, but he was sure that his clan needed him... for some reason. It upset him that he couldn't remember what was happening, but it just meant that he had to get home even faster.

His next stops were the two school buildings and the recreation centre, where he had been shooed away from the library and the pool. Apparently unclaimed weapons weren't allowed to access them. That left the computer room. He gave it a shot with the same determination that had made him a Clan Leader. This was just a different kind of challenge that he could handle, right? Weren't moogles the most technological race in Ivalice? Of course they were. No problem!

He eventually managed to turn one on.

He was frustrated by both the main hall and the mysterious building nearby. While he could explore the first floor of the central building, the rest of it as well as its neighbour were blocked off. There had to be a way to access them, but when no options presented themselves, he was forced to move on.

The forest was his next adventure. He walked along the wall at first to keep from getting lost, but eventually he gathered the will to venture into the forest proper. It felt larger and lonlier than it actually was. Usually, the moogle would be travelling with at least a few others for protection in the monster-infested forests of Ivalice, but they were all back home. Hopefully safe. He lost himself in his thoughts as he wandered, only snapping out of it when he reached the edge of the forest near the ocean. He finally ventured out to the end of the sea wall. He sat for quite some time, deep in thought about the clan he had left behind.

Montblanc was on his way back to his dorm when he spotted her leaving the forest not far from where he had emerged earlier. It looked like he wasn't the only person interested in finding their way around the campus! And odds were good that a person who thought like him was worth meeting, right? Of course she was. You would be hard pressed to find a person who Montblanc would call not worth meeting.

He approached her, holding up a hand in greeting. "Find anything interesting in there, kupo?"

Cécile blinked at him, holding her hand back up in response. "Not yet! I did get lost for a little bit," she offered, cheerfully. "Thankfully the forest isn't that large." It would have been distinctly terrible if she'd gotten lost in the forest for any real length of time; after all, there were things to do, manuals to read...

He nodded. "It's easy to get turned around in there. I mostly stuck to the wall so I wouldn't get lost, but I think I must have missed out on a lot because I was doing that!" he grinned ruefully. Navigating even small forests had never exactly been his calling. "I'm planning to head back in to look around properly later, kupo. It seems like a good idea to explore as much of this place as we can, don't you think?"
