Who: Elizabeth and Yooouuuu.
What: Falling out of the sky. Getting culture shocked. That sort of thing.

Where: School all over.
Warnings: N….o…

Earlier in the day, if you were paying attention you might have seen something drop out of the low cruising clouds. Did you? Maybe. Probably not. Was that a scream in the distance? No? Yeah, no.

(Except the answers were actually yes. Oops.)

Later though, one might notice a young lady that was not previously on campus before. If she was lost she was certainly not showing any signs of being bothered by it, running around and marvelling at…

… Everything. She was marvelling at everything. Even that leaf. Even that tree branch. Look at that lake. Look at that building. Look at that sky.

Look at you. Definitely you.

"Hello!"

It was often that some newcomer would be confused with modern technology, coming from eras or worlds without such things. Cyrus's scientific side took over. "That device dispenses goods upon the insertion of money. I may explain the mechanical functions if you wish."

At least she knew what she was dealing with, he figured.

Ah. Well. All of those facts were things that could complicate matters. Elizabeth glanced at him again, staring somewhat obviously at his hair though she was really more interested in what he had said.

"War?" The area around the school seemed far too peaceful to be in a warring state. "But oh, ah, I'm not sure. A... seven up?"

She wanted to know what on Earth that was. Seven "ups"? What would be considered an "up"?

"That is the name of a popular carbonated beverage. It, and so many others, contain no nutritional value." He was glaring at the machine as though it was a mortal enemy.
