Possible Scenarios 01. A New Arrival: You've just arrived in the City of Sin with nothing but the clothes on your back and a very strange sense of having been displaced. Thankfully, you don't appear to be alone. Here's hoping that person passing by is helpful, and doesn't plan on mugging you or something! 02. Demonic Presences: You were just minding your own business, weren't you? But that's always when bad things seem to happen, and the City of Sin isn't really that friendly. Maybe you'll find someone who can help you fight off that shadowy thing that's creeping towards you! 03. Party Hard: You've been invited to a massive, elegant party at the Tower by someone who calls themselves the Emperor. Obviously that's weird, but maybe you can get some free drinks and food out of it! This place might not be so bad. 04. Prominence: People have been telling you all about the City influencing your thoughts and feelings. You’re finally getting to experience that. One of the sins is in prominence, and you’re feeling the force of it fully. 05. Welcome to Fight Club: You’ve been dragged unwillingly into the Coliseum and told to fight some of your fellow Chosen to the death. Are you willing to comply? Or would you rather sacrifice yourself 06. Wild Card: Choose your own adventure!

Familiarity is not lost on the blonde woman, who instantly recognizes the purple haired woman. They hadn't really had much time to talk last time. But at least now she could thank her for sending Spike the message.

"Hello," she says right back rooted in her place. This place is still sinking in. Not heaven or hell, right? She's not sure yet. It's still all muddled.

"You gave him the message," she says almost with a tinge of sadness to her voice as she glances down at the ground. It's odd. Her eyes look back at the woman and she musters a small smile.

"Thank you."

More questions were to come of course.

Faye remembered that message. Even the reluctance to say anything about it at the time. But she had. She liked to think that with her all her faults, she wasn't so obstinate as to ignore something that weighty. Even if she didn't understand everything about it.

She'd like to say 'No problem' but she knew what happened after. That's another reason Julia being here surprises her. She doesn't think she'll get used to the dead just being pulled back. What's one supposed to ask them that wouldn't sound like a jab at dying? 'How do you feel?' Maybe for someone else. But for Julia, she actually thinks through it.

"You asked me to. ... Did you just get here?"

[elusivejulia]

She had asked, yes, but Faye didn't have to go through with it. The fact that she did however regardless of the outcome was something the blonde was silently grateful for. Would she acknowledge it? Probably not. She was dead woman full of regrets.

"Yes," she replies looking rather pensively as if trying to put a puzzle together. "I don't think I am supposed to be here." She looks around again. Something about this place is familiar.

"You're not dead...?"

It's more of a question as she tries to figure it out.

[misdebt]

"I'm not. ... God, I hope not." It had crossed her mind before that maybe this was some rotten purgatory, but she hated thinking about it too much.

Faye searches inside her jacket quickly and pulls out a box of cigarettes and a lighter. She holds the box open towards Julia, the only offer she can think to make in the moment.

"If it helps at all. And, I don't think anyone here is supposed to be here. Me, I think I was kidnapped, and I'm still waiting for a clear explanation. City of Sin is what they call it. Cute name, right?"

[elusivejulia]

Julia reaches out and pulls a cigarette out of the box before taking the lighter from Faye and lighting it. How long had it been since she had one? Probably a few hours if she really thinks about it.

She nods her silent thanks, returning the lighter to the woman and taking a drag.

"Very cute," she agrees. "They sure know how to pick names around here." Another drag and she stares out into the distance for the moment.

"Have you seen your captors yet or are they being evasive?"

[misdebt]

It felt vaguely reassuring that she accepted the smoke. Faye prepares one for herself, as well.

"I wouldn't know them if I saw them. One minute I'm asleep on the ship and the next I wake up in some empty house. Get this, the story I'm getting from others around here? Some kind of invisible or supernatural force moves us here from random places in," at this part she waves her hands with mock emphasis, "time and space!"

"And you know what? I wanna call bullshit all the time, but unfortunately it's pretty much also the only working theory. I got here not too long ago, myself."

She doesn't mind that Julia isn't looking at her, but the staring out does prompt her to ask, "Are you okay?"
