Welcome to Gaia! ::

Rin offered Otto and his cousin a weak smile in passing. Nothing was ever going to be perfect, it helped to not focus so much on the inevitable bad. This is what kept her alive, what kept her going.

She finally took the uniform and gun and dressed herself accordingly. Just in case. There was no way to know exactly what actually awaited them on the other side and chances would not be made if she could help it. She nodded to him too with a more grateful smile, ""thanks."

She followed the others as the portal finally emerged. It was a hope she grasped onto tightly; that everything would work out. She leapt at the opening but was instantly hit with something less desirable. She staggered about with a yelp of confusion and down she went. Swirls of grass and dirt were all she could make out.

There was no one to wait for. As soon as the portal formed, he jumped.

It felt odd. Blurs of green -- grass? -- something that looked like the training fields, but there wasn't time to observe before he dropped to his knees and passed out.
