          as she strolled through terra, she again encountered a woman she’d met only days prior—olivia, a dancer of another world—who knelt on the ground before a variety of vibrant blooms, tending to them with care and undivided attention. while edelgard longed to return to the gardens in enbarr, she did appreciate the beauty regardless of the location. 

          “ah, i’m pleased to see you again, olivia. you have an interest in gardening as well?” the dancer looked as though she belonged among the flowers, the soft pink shade of her hair complemented by their blooms. “i don’t wish to impose, but do you mind if i join you?”

      She was cautious as she navigated the building and made her way outside, but her efforts bore fruit immediately when the lobby poured out into a gorgeous garden. Camilla had always longed for something similar in Nohr — but her country had been far too cold and far too poor for such a thing to be truly plausible long-term. It had been but a little dream: a life of comfort and relaxation with no need to wage war. Could such a thing be possible here? 

    As she walked along the decorated path, she admired the various plants and arrangements of flowers. And it wasn’t long before she encountered a stranger — something she knew would happen quite quickly in a brand new realm — but the other woman’s nervous stature was cause for concern. She must have been a new arrival as well, judging by the unease with which she held herself, though she still looked at home among the flowers with her pink curls. Being such a compassionate woman, it was only natural for Camilla to attempt to comfort her.

     “Are you quite alright, darling?” She placed a hand gently on her shoulder as she spoke, attempting to gain her attention without frightening her. “You must be new here as well. If you’d like, we can take a look around. Brave this strange new storm together, hm?”

      all too soon does someone catch her eyes.  an all too familiar scent sits at the edge of her snout.  it is welcoming and it is known,  a comfortable aroma befitting fairness and beauty.  the white - wolf’s amble steps cease.  curiosity overwhelms her by the way of her finely tipped tail and tilt of her head.

I MEAN HONESTLY despite their cute supports, that kind of feels like a good basis for a realistic thing w/ olivia lbr

While a composing book wasn’t what she was expecting to be given, it was definitely helpful for the fact that she wouldn’t have to go out of her way to buy one later. The only thing that was really annoying was the fact that she had no piano to test out anything she’d compose on. Thankfully, she had gotten quite used to the sound of the notes, so she could easily determine if her compositions sounded good, but... not being able to play them or hear them properly definitely made her fingers twitch out of compulsion to play something.

Kaede never liked being away from the piano for too long, it was like her child.

So she had taken the time to sit down on a bench, body hunched over as the book rested on her lap. It had been easy to find a pencil laying around her assigned apartment, but she didn’t want to stay inside. There was no reason for her to do so, and she might be able to find inspiration outside. Fingers kept on swinging the pencil back and forth as it balanced between two of them, occasionally resting against her lips as she tried her hardest to think of something...

It could be used for doodling too, however... so, she decided to start doodling her surroundings on the first page, see if that could give her anything to go off. Her eyes kept on gazing up now and again to get a good enough glimpse at whatever she wanted to draw next. It could definitely be misinterpreted that she was staring at someone, however, as her eyes did tend to gaze for a bit longer than a normal person would.

the city is open to you, olivia. welcome to terra.

you will be housed in twin apartments A15, where you will find a keychain in the shape of chrom’s cool sword to replace the weapons taken from you on arrival. are all ylisseans as well-armed as you and your tactician?
