action; beach

[It's like there's something holding her here. Trapped, wherever she goes. How many times does this make it? It doesn't really matter. At this point, she's grown to accept it. Wearily, and dully, and numbly, but railing against her imprisonment has never yielded freedom. Why would it matter now?

So she sits on the sand of the beach, staring blankly ahead at the waves as they lap at her toes. Slowly, a trail of water spirals upwards from the ocean surface, floating formlessly, forming abstract patterns without any meaning.

Occasionally, without much impetus, the water will abruptly crash back to its source with a loud slap.]

network; voice

[This looks...something like the recorder Peridot tried to give her. Which, ugh. But she supposes it came from a good place, so maybe she should treat this one a little better.

What's it that Peridot says all the time? She was rambling endlessly on the ship, all the time, practically nonstop, and never to her. Just...to her screens and gadgets.]

L...Log date? I don't know...how days are measured here.

[She sighs, and opts to abandon the effort. It doesn't matter.]

Never mind. This wasn't a good idea.

[It has been a long time since Toriel has been able to see the ocean- an endless expanse of water, and the calming sounds of waves on the beach, and warm sand beneath her feet. She's been here a few times now, but it's still nice to stop by, and just enjoy the atmosphere. Though, the sound of something slapping in the water gets her attention.

Seeing someone else isn't that surprising, and blue skin is hardly the strangest thing she's seen- though what they're doing with the water seems to pique her curiosity, as she approaches.]

My, that is certainly an interesting ability! I do not think that I have ever actually seen anything like that before!

[She's seen magic bullets that imitated droplets of water before, sure- but never any direct manipulation of real water.]

[Lapis doesn't expect someone to come up from behind, and...oh. She doesn't...look like a gem. Or human, for that matter. It's difficult to quantify exactly what she is, but she seems friendly enough.

So after the initial if muted shock, Lapis allows herself to relax someone. The water's surface smooths, and a few droplets drift back into the air.]

It's nothing special. Only useful on Earth.

[And here, apparently. Wherever "here" is. On Homeworld, the power was useless. Hilariously useless. So hilarious that they immediately turned around and dragged her all the way back again.]

Well, Earth is a very, very big place, with water almost everywhere! So, it sounds like it could be very useful to me.

While this place is not Earth, it seems as if it is Earth-like enough for that to still apply.

[She watches the water flow through the air, obviously fascinated- and it's not hard to tell from her tone, that whoever this is isn't feeling terribly great right now- so perhaps Toriel taking an interest could cheer her up?

It helps that she's genuinely interested in it as well, of course.]

My name is Toriel by the way. I am sorry, I completely forgot to introduce myself.

[...right. But the Earth wasn't supposed to stay like that forever, not according to the schematics and plans Homeworld had for it. In the end, had it really mattered what she thought about the planet. It stayed the way it did, and she ended up on the wrong side no matter who was holding her mirror.]

I'm Lapis. Lapis Lazuli.

[The water floating in the air forms a question mark, as she looks in Toriel's direction quizzically.]

...you're not a human, are you?

[If she is, Lapis will VERY MUCH have to reevaluate her current understanding of humans.]
