Exploring
Who: Taiki and Open
Where: All through the train- garden, games, kitchen and standard have prompts but feel free to catch him anywhere.
When: Month Domino, Day 23
What: Taiki is finally well enough to get out of bed and start exploring this strange train he boarded a week ago.
Warnings:
The last week has been one of fever and sickness. Dreams of blood and death, mixed with other strange dreams that seemed to have been shared with those who travelled with him on this train.
But the fever had broken and the last couple of days he had been doing better. Able to sit up and move around his cabin. He felt bad for having caused both lord Gyousou and Wen Qing trouble, when they both should have been focused on resting and healing themselves.
Now he was a bit better he was feeling very confined. Apart from the walk from the platform to this cabin he had not seen the rest of the train where he now lived. So though he was still shakey on his feet he got dressed in the trousers and hoodie that had been in his bag and left the cabin quietly, holding onto the wall for support.
Garden
He instantly liked this place. There were no flowers, though there were a couple of suitcase-turned-plantpots that looked like things might grow eventually. It was peaceful though, even if the light from the void was strange.
He sat down on a bench, tired already despite only walking two carriages. He was better than he had been though, better than he should be, considering what he had done. He stared into the water and then closed his eyes, trying to take in the peace of this place.
Games
The next carriage along had board games and he paused to read a few of the titles. He hadn't ever really played any board games, though he had seen them being played before. He recognised a couple. He smiled at anyone he saw, not approaching but trying to be friendly. He knew enough to know that most the people here had had as little choice about being here than he had. He was still suspicious of this whole place, but so far people had not been cruel.
Kitchen
Carriage by carriage he walked on shaking legs, stopping now and then and siting down to rest. It was a long journey from one end of the train to the other and there was a lot to take in. Some of the places he half remembered from dreams, other peoples dreams. Strange to be stood in those places now.
He entered the kitchens and all at once stopped, recoiling slightly. Something was wrong. He felt ill, more ill. Blood, maybe just raw meat. He's never really noticed if that has any effect on him, his Taika shell protected his body from the worst of blood sickness on earth and in Tai he had never even been in the kitchens.
Still it was an altogether unpleasant feeling and he quickly left, gripping to the wall for support.
Standard Coach
He got through the first carriage but by the time he got back to the standard coach he had to sit down. He saw the bookshelf and forced himself to stay standing while he grabbed a book and sat at the nearest table.
It would give him an excuse to sit a while. People here might be as trapped as he and Lord Gyousou were but it didn't mean they could trust them. He stared at the book, only half reading it and then looked out into the void. What was it? How were they here? What had become of Tai?
None of those were questions he had answers to.

"I wonder why."
Why earth? Was it just that a lot of places called their home planet earth? How similar were they?
no subject
It seems awful weird that he didn't even know after all.
"Yeah. I dunno man. Maybe earth is just some sort of common spot?"
no subject
He shrugged, looking a bit embarrassed. He knows it seems weird to someone from earth. Though it hadn't seemed all that strange to him when he had first returned to his world, but he had been a small child and as such had just accepted what the adults around him had told him.
He thought a bit on the idea of earth being a common spot. It was as good an idea as any he could come up with.

"Are you like. Part plant?"

If he had been born there he would probably find how people were born on earth weird. As it was he understood both ways and both seemed normal to him.
no subject
"I'll get used to the idea eventually." He grins at him. "You world just sounds real complicated, is all."
no subject
Not specifically this carriage, though he certainly looked comfortable.
no subject
He nods. "Feels like ages. Been at least a coupla months I think though."
no subject
"I'm sorry... It must feel like a long time."
no subject
"I mean. You manage, coz you have to, you know? Might as well make the best of a bad situation."
no subject
"Thank you."
no subject
"We're all in this together, yeah? So... feel free to yell if you need anything."
no subject
"I... I'm sure I'll see you again."
It doesn't seem there is any way to not run into people here, after all.
