Dining Hall

[Yuki is in the dining hall with the rule book in front of her and a plate of food on her left. On her right is a note book where she is diligently taking notes.]

[Your name is in the book. She has a list of the players, weapons, playerless weapons, battles, outcomes, stats, everything she could possibly need in the future. Don't be creeped out, it's necessary]

[mumbling]
I don't understand...

[Casting another frown over at Sherlock, Grenn shrugs and leans forward a bit. She has no idea if this ought to be kept secret, but, well, she's read one or two books about broken timelines because someone said something they shouldn't have...]

Well... I have to admit I don't know much about that time in history. [Grenn pauses and shrugs. Lowers her voice just a bit.]

But, well. With history that ancient, they just don't go in on particulars. [She's not sure she should say more than that, even if they apparently come from slightly different... versions? of reality.]
bitofafiction: Smiling: fond amusement. (!= that was Victorian)

[Still listening, he smiles to himself. What was it he was saying to Yuki earlier? Ah, yes: curiouser and curiouser...]

[Grenn looks down, realizes she has food on her plate, and takes time to take a few bites before putting the utensils down again. What to say? How to say it?][Well, Grenn isn't actually sure she's going to be able to explain properly anyway...]

It's year 326, soon 327... after a particular event, but I'm not actually sure how much time there's between the old calendar and the new one... Dates were never my favourite. [Grenn finishes in an apologetic tone, now more or less whispering.]

[Of course, she used the new calendar quite knowingly... if that guy over there is listening, and she's not sure either way, he's not going to be able to tell anything from those dates. She could have used the Hijri calendar, but then the exact dates could have been figured out, for those who knew that way of keeping time.]</small

[That guy over there remains apparently oblivious. Apparently.]

[Grenn drags a hand over her face, and doesn't know what to do. Does she tell, or would that break timelines or whatever?]

I'm not sure I should... what if that changes something? [But she wants to explain something, and if Yuki doesn't know the exact dates of when the new calendar was instated, or how long it had been between the past she probably inhabited and the future when that event happened...]

[Of course, if they simply come from different realities, it probably doesn't matter, but Grenn's aware the difference in history could simply be things forgotten between then and now.]


What happened was... [Then she snaps her mouth shut. Looks around. It's not just that guy over there in here, even if none of the others are even potetntially close.]

[So she takes out her pencil and notebook, and hopes the translation works for text, too; First permanent expedition landing on Mars. Finished, Grenn gives the notebook to Yuki. She doesn't mention the terraforming.]

[Which leaves Sherlock free to speculate on just what she might have written down.]
summerstars: (smile)

[Giving a decisive nod, Grenn closes the notebook again, and puts it and the pencil away.]

Really. That deserves its own calendar, don't you think? [Grenn says with a smile. It's kinda funny, she wouldn't be born for forever when that expedition happened, but she still feels kinda proud, in the face of Yuki's surprise.]

What date is it to you? I mean, before you ended up here? [Grenn has to admit to being curious, about the relative time difference. Of course, that says nothing about what time (if there is any) they're in right now, here...]
bitofafiction: Eyes closed, serene, content. (<= it's good to be home)

[Now there's some information Sherlock is interested in hearing.]
