Eric wanders out the front of Virgo, his guitar in hand, gently strumming at the strings while he looks out at the surrounding.
It really is quite beautiful here. If I was here under different circumstances, I might not want to leave so bad...
But even as he thought it, he thought back to his conversation with Harmony and the promise hed made her.
Head in the game Eric. Now you got here somehow. That how was pretty painful, but you got here. So theres got to be a way back. A door or a staircase....
He looked around and sighed.
What the hell am I talking about? Its a rainbow in space. God damn it what am I missing!?

Mary looked up from her seat on the road to stop a rather confused looking individual. She tilted her head, watching him for a moment, before letting her dull gaze fall back to the road.
WAITASECOND.
Her eyes snapped back up, brighter than before. The was someone here! She watched him for a time before gathering up the nerve to say something before he walked away.
"Um! Excuse me! You Who Looks Either Lost or Confused! Um.... hi!" she said giving a wave of her hand. It wasn't the best introduction, especially after giving him one of her long winded nicknames, but it was something at least! Mary's loneliness shrunk some, even just having a presence on this part of the road with her helped. She refrained from doing any of her odd tendencies (wing preaning, tail petting, etc), as best she could. For now.
Good good. Not scaring the boy, check. Not looking like a freak, check. Mission, Seem Normal! Underway.

Eric looked up in suprise when Mary called out to him, he hadn't noticed her there. When she spoke, however, he smiled, his optimistic disposition getting the better of caution. "Oh, Id say lost and confused is a bit of an understatement right now. But I'm alive. And Eric. I mean, thats what Im called, my name is Eric." He took a breath, starting over. He couldnt believe how much he sucked at meeting new people. "Hi I'm Eric. Whats your name?" He extended a (somewhat cautious) hand.

Mary watched him curiously and giggled softly as he fumbled over his words. He was kinda like her then. It was nice to find another awkward individual. She took the hand and shook it, a small smile on her face. Hey, if she was going to delude herself into thinking people liked her, she might as well look happy while she did it.
"He Who is Confused and Fumbles His Words, also known as Eric, I am Argabauth, er, rather, I'm Mary. Most people know me as Argabauth online though, so I answer to either," she said to him with a firm shake of his hand.
Well, that wasn't too weird, at least not any more than his ramblings a moment before. Okay, good start Mary on acting normal, good start.
"What brings you to the wonderfully broken rainbow road we have here?" she asked him.

Eric smiled "If its the same to you, I think Mary is easier to remember." His thumb picked the low E chord as he thought of how best to answer her question. "Well... actually, I'm looking for a way out. I dont suppose you'd know how to get back to earth would you?" It was a dumb question and a leap of faith. Eric doubted she knew the way out since she appeared to just be sitting here. He was also taking a risk by trusting her, but there didn't really appear to be an alternative. Besides, she was kind of cute.

Her head tilted from side to side as she thought. Now what was it that the senshi had talked about... that they were stuck? Yes that was it wasn't it. Yes it had to be, otherwise she'd be very much asleep now... or would she? She wondered what day it was on Earth. How many of her fellow RPers had started to worry about where she was. She never missed a posting, unless she said so before hand. She wondered if they cared...
Mary blinked and shook her head for a moment, before answering him. "Ah, no I don't think there is, unless you want to jump through one of massive holes, but I'm not sure that will help you. She Who is the Keeper of the Books said there was something preventing her from taking us home," she said quite matter-a-factually to Eric. She shifted, tucking her feet under herself. The fifteen year old glanced up at him.
"Ah, do you know what happened up in Virgo? I heard sounds of fighting earlier..." she asked him, lilac eyes moving over to the outpost for a moment.

Eric frowned as she spoke. The same line he kept getting everywhere, the senshi say their stuck. Though this girl was definately saying Senshi, not Sushi. Hed have to sort that out later. "No, I didn't, I've been poking my nose around for quite some time now, I must not have been near there." He looked over at Virgo. "I hope everyone is allright..." He sighed. "As for jumping through those holes, Ill file that under 'last resort.' Though if you had some rope we might be able to investigate..." He picked a note on his D string while he thought. "We'd need Jett though, I'm not sure you have the arm stregnth the lower me into a hole any distance. Hmmm...." He picked a note on his B string while he thought about it. "Maybe we could fashion a rope from blankets or something from one of the outposts?"

Her eyes snapped to him the minutes he said Jett. Jett? He knew Jett!? The fifteen year old, white blonde haired girl bounced up and grabbed his hands, her butt wiggling back and forth,
"You've seen He Who Likes She Who is Flown!? You've seen Jett?! Where is he?" she said with a bit of a high pitched squeal, or sqwake. She just about vibrated with energy, intent no longer on knowing about Eric, but knowing if Jett was alright.
She really shouldn't care; he didn't like her anyway.
But... but if Eric knew where Jett was, maybe he also knew about Raven and Darwin.
Maybe.

Eric looked suprised at her sudden excitment. "N-no, Not sure where he is right now but I could look for him. I last saw him at Leo..." He blinked at her. "Is he you're uh, friend?"

She flinched a little and sheepishly giggled. "Ah well... I don't know if he thinks of me as a friend... but I consider him one. He's just always been really distant..." she said softly, letting go of his hands. Jett was kinda like Mary when at school in that respect. They both kept to themselves, especially if it dealt with someone they liked or knew.
But then again... Jett never really liked her that much. Not for her fawning over Raven, or hanging around Darwin, or anything. So she really shouldn't care so much. A flicker of emotion ran over her face for a moment before she calmed herself.
"Ah well, he's bound to be around here somewhere, ne? Probably following Raven around like a lost puppy..." It pained her to speak of her so called friends, but at the same time, it kept her from going back to her despair, if only for a time.

Eric tried not to look confused, he hadn't known Jett had a girlfriend here in space with them. Actually, there was alot he didn't know about Jett, he had only actually met the man once. It was interesting to know though, and it did somewhat explain Jett's aloofness on the way to leo. He might have been on his way to meet her. It must be pretty aweful for him to have his girlfriend trapped up here with them. Jett must have been so scared... "Oh, yeah, he's probably somewhere around. He'll do all right for himself, hes pretty clever. I'm not that worried about him." He smiled at her. "But I digress. I came out here to look for a way out. What do you think?" ((I'm very sorry its been so long since there was a post in here, I honestly forgot I had a roleplay still active after the meta ended. If you dont want to continue Ill understand, but if you do I promise Ill pay attention! x_x))
