[ (frankly, she's not even going to pretend to understand how she's getting this thing to work.)

the face looking into the camera -- well, looking above and slightly to the right of the camera -- is that of a girl barely coming into womanhood, with huge eyes and an uncertain expression. her bangs are visible from under a kerchief bound to her head by an embroidered band, and at her temples are delicate metal loops of varying sizes and designs. ]

If anyone sees two small children, a boy with a scarf and a girl with a ribbon in her hair, please tell them to stay put and big sister will find them.

And might anyone know where I could purchase a horse?

[ or steal. ]

What kind of horse
And what are the kids names

[sunflowersister]

A charger if I can get it, a farm horse if I can't.

They are Brother and Little Sister. Our name is Rus.

[upstartcrow]

Ill run a search of local stables I guess but uh
Our name is Rus
Sounds kind of Children of the Corn creepy

[sunflowersister]

Well, if it makes you feel any better, I don't know who Corn is and we're definitely not her children. They're just not big enough for their own names yet...

But thank you for your help!

[upstartcrow]

Yeah sure anytime Miss Rus
Cant deny myself an ironic nod to chivalry when a maids in distress
Im looking around but Im not sure I can point you to a war horse breeder in this day and age

[sunflowersister]

Is this such peaceful place, then? I suppose that's a good sign... Perhaps a carthorse?

[upstartcrow]

Yeah its like a tropical vacation island
If youre just looking for transportation I can call you a cab

[sunflowersister]

A what?

[upstartcrow]

A taxi?

[sunflowersister]

Um, are you talking about a carriage? It would be faster for me to take the horse its drawn by. I just need a quicker way to look for my siblings...

[upstartcrow]

Oh
Uh
Wow I should have considered this angle considering everything else
Ok the fastest way to find your little brother and sister would be to take a cab to the police station since it looks like theyre organizing kid searches
That might not make a whole lot of sense to you right now but it might once you see what a cab is
And how fast it goes

[oftpartitioned]

whoa.

[sunflowersister]

[ stARES... ??? ]

Polscha? Wh - why do you look so much older?? Did you take them!

[oftpartitioned]

why would I take them? I spent most of my time trying to avoid those losers.

Did you like... get work done or something?

[sunflowersister]

How can I get any work done when I don't know where they are?? Or where WE are, for that matter.

[oftpartitioned]

Well that isn't the black sea, thats for sure! lol

[sunflowersister]

Oh for goodness sake. Well now I know where we're not!!

You're not even a little worried? Someone could be trying to take your kingdom!

[oftpartitioned]

ehhh democracy's kinda the tops, i dont mind.

[rule_britannia]

.. Ukraine?

[Oh good lord.]

[sunflowersister]

I'm sorry?

[rule_britannia]

Ah--.. my mistake, I must have you confused with someone else.

[Christ... He can't even remember this far back.]

Are you lost, miss..?

[sunflowersister]

Rus.

I am, but I'm more concerned about finding my siblings. We can be lost just fine if we're together.

[rule_britannia]

[Rus.

Bloody hell.]

I'm sure you'll find them soon enough. Are you quite safe in the meantime?
