Second Shooting Star - voice/action;

[risingwinds]

You know, this place isn't so bad. Even if it's a prison, at least it's peaceful, and there's a lot of room to explore. Maybe one of these days I'll go check out the forest or the mountains, but right now I'm fine with sticking around the village. Aqua just got here, anyway, and maybe Terra'll show up soon. If he does, we've already got a house set up. Well, sorta. We just moved in, so there's still a lot we could do.

[Briefly, Ventus pauses. The journals are supposed to be for communication, so there's a lot he could talk about, but where to start?

...Well, there is one thing.]

Anyway, I know that you guys come from all kinds of worlds. So what's your world like?

[Later tonight, people passing by might spot Ventus chilling on the roof of House 39. But why is he out so late in the first place?

Given how focused he is on the sky, it should be fairly clear. One of his favorite things to do back home was look at the stars, and given that the threat of Unversed seems next to nonexistent, there's finally a good opportunity to do just that.

Feel free to join him or maybe scold him for not carrying a blanket... or whatever floats your boat! In spite of the chilly weather, he doesn't seem too bothered, at least.]

... Vast is a good word for it. While not physically large, Earth does have a great variety of things in it, from biological to anthropological.

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Anthropological? What's that mean?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

Anthropology is the study of people and their cultures. It is less based on what makes up a person physically and more what makes them a person by their reaction to the world around them and how they adapt.

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

So it's about what's inside a person instead of what's outside. I think I get it now.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

Actually, no. Both are about what's outside the person.

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Not literally! I just mean how they act and who they are.

But I guess it counts as outside, too, if you're counting the world they live in.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

How one interacts with the world outside is the very basis of culture, after all.

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's true. Where they're from can make a big difference, too.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

Precisely.
