probably not, but, the only person i can recognize. at least so far

( which is a mildly depressing confession, that his aunt is about all he has left. it's not untrue, though. )

huh... thats cool! having people around you like you. how many people were in your guild?
maybe you can make another, while youre here?

oh! yeah, you
i cant believe you remember that, but yeah, once i got moving i was dry again pretty quick

( full disclosure: he took all his wet clothes off to sling around in latex. so yes, he was fine. )

It took me a while to find four people, so there might be more you know somewhere. If you need help combing through the pods, Juvia doesn't mind.

As for members, Fairy Tail was known for its large numbers.
But I think it's just me now.

[ At that, she makes a face. If pure mention of being the only member of Fairy Tail doesn't give her the worst nerves of her life, the idea of making Fairy Tail 2.0 probably will..! ]

Oh. I don't know. If I can. I don't want to do that by myself. Juvia would have to think about it. Maybe.
And I don't understand why you think I wouldn't remember, but I'm glad you ended up okay. Sorry, for getting you wet, again.

[ Not many people are especially Fond of getting drenched in cold water..... ]

oh, trust me, i looked pretty hard. it was just my aunt... at least so far.

( if Peter is wrong, he'll be surprised... but the fact remains people could have come from NY and he wouldn't have known, since he didn't know enough people personally. sad thought. )

if not a new fairy tale, then... something like it. it'd probably be nice for people, so far from home, to have other people like them

& you dont have to apologize for saving my life, Juvia. so thanks. you dont have to worry about it

Oh. [ AH!!!!!! To assume he didn't look hard enough..!! She didn't mean it like that!!!!!! ] If you couldn't find anyone else, then at least you have someone as important to you as family!!

[ And.. well, he does make a point-- Peter makes it sound all the more meaningful when he says it like that. As much as she wants to, she isn't sure she's a figure people would want to.. really call a leader. But he's not wrong, Fairy Tail was a home for her when she didn't have one. ]

...Okay. I won't worry about it. It was just cold, so I thought I'd say it again, just in case.
Thank you for being honest about it, though.

And, Peter. You don't have to, but would you consider helping Juvia? Kind of like a team.
If not, it's okay.

yeah, i am lucky shes there, even though i wish she were awake with me.

( Peter visits her a lot, even now, but there's no ready or apparent change in her status, or if there is he wouldn't know it. it's... hard, seeing her like that. )

it got way colder back home and i am "allergic to proper coats" (not my words) so i managed fine, i promise

i
uh
sure, what do you need help with?

This whole thing would be far easier if we were told when they'd be waking up.

[ At that, she sighs. There's only so much you can do in front of a pod, especially since you can't obviously break the glass (speaking from experience). ]

That makes two people Juvia knows that are allergic to clothes... it's tragic. [ She's lying it's Never tragic for her. ] My home is ALWAYS warm and very sunny, but I run cold. I'm jealous of your ability to stay heated.

Oh.
Thank you! ! Right now, probably nothing. Juvia is going to ask her roommate if he wants to help, too. I think he would enjoy having people like the two of us around more often. Then Juvia will look at what needs to be done.

i like clothes, just not coats... ill wait until there is snow on the ground to wear an actual coat if i can help it
and ha thats got to be a first, jealousy wise? maybe stock up on sweaters, juvia!

you are welcome... ( even though he's kind of wondering what he signed up for right about now... please be good to him, Juvia! ) well whatever you come up w, im happy to help.
just let me know.

Is that because you just don't want to carry a coat around?

[ are you lazy peter.... ]

Juvia doesn't care for snow. But I like what comes with it. Mainly, the holiday season. And I do. Although, I am trying to see about tailors in Olympia to make more since I am running low.

[ Juvia is thinking the exact same thing with this guild idea-- something along the lines of 'what is she getting herself into'. But don't worry, you can count on her! ]

Do you mean with? When you say w?
I will, though. Thank you, again. What's the best way to contact you?

you cant move around as much in a big coat! thats all

( a guy can't websling through the skyline in a huge jacket, okay... though even Spider-Man makes some concessions when things get super cold... not that it's a problem anymore. )

oh... yes. sorry. with.
you can use the inbox app to find me, i'm under my name. peter parker. if that works for you
& im at the institute sometimes, im an assistant so i have a desk there and everything

[ Juvia squints down at her phone with an intensity that, frankly, isn't quite normal. She'll let this slide.. for now. ]

It's easier for Juvia to meet face to face. [ Said with all the eloquence of a girl using the voice to text function. ] So I would rather meet you at the institute.

I can accommodate to your schedule if you let me know the times you're there.
And if you don't mind my asking, are you liking working there so far?

( s wEATS

teenage boys not wearing coats is totally normal Juvia!!! just meet more teenagers, you'll see!!!! )

ok, well, thats fine... my hrs are kind of sporadic? ( aka everything he ever does is sporadic ) but afternoons for sure.

its pretty new for me. back home i worked as a photographer, even though i love science a lot. its weird to be in the field, especially when it isnt the same as it would be back home... but i have a lot of freedom and i really appreciate that. evras is a crazy smart guy, too.

[ ok true all the teenage boys she knows wear vests for shirts but still!!!!!!!! ]

Your hours are sporadic. That is fine, Juvia will find a day to come around noon, then.

Did you photograph girls? Juvia knows someone who did work like that.
Briefly, I considered going to the institute as well.. but I thought it too much of a change for me. Juvia hasn't stuck with just one job before. It's good, though, that you're getting experience from people like Evras. Have you done anything with them yet? With science?

( DOES HE PHOTOGRAPH GIRLS WHAT KINDA QUESTION IS THIS... he did but he wasn't supposed to and his uncle gave him grief about it so peter knows better than to say. )

like a fashion photographer? oh, no, i worked for a newspaper. events and specifically ... er, this guy that we did a lot of stories on

( he means himself. he took pictures of himself. gotta make a living somehow ok juvia!!! )

right now i get to pick my own research topics so im looking into the local wildlife. see if i can figure out why they are the way they are. animals here are different than they were back home.

[ A VALID ONE... it's a real occupation that real people have!! ]

You must've had fun taking pictures for your newspaper then, if you chose that over a magazine. Who is this "guy" though? What did he do?

[ it's ok peter.... she's only going to judge a little bit even if it brings home bank money ]

So it's very much like your old job, but with more freedom. Juvia thinks it's interesting you bring that up, though. Most of the animals here are similar to the ones there are at home. What's different about them to you?

well since i didnt have an art degree it was kind of the bugle or nothing, but i did like it, yeah. it was cool to get paid for something i liked to do

he... uh, well, my boss was certain he was a bad guy, but he wasnt. he was a vigilante who was trying to do good things. maybe he just wasnt very good at it

( spoken with a lot of self awareness, there... )

you think they are similar? i mean some of them are. and some of them are pretty fantastical. and some of them are like clouds that purr, have you met any of those?

Does an art degree really make that big of a difference? Experience alone should be enough.

Oh. People like that are commonplace in Fiore, so there isn't a need to report on any unless they've committed crimes. If you've taken pictures of this man, you must have seen him at work. Juvia would believe you over your boss.

[ she's putting faith that his self aware comment was just defending this guy even in the new world... ]

No.. Juvia hasn't met them. They sound cute, though. Are they cute?
Ah, but, I think what I mean is, this world is close to mine. Juvia even overheard there being a history of dragons here. So is yours not like this place?

in ny? yeah, degrees are important, especially for big league jobs...

yeah, i did. he was trying to help, whether it seemed like that or not. thanks, Juvia.

( legit never met Spider-Man but is willing to believe in him just because Peter says so. it's weird, but a good kind of weird. )

teenage boys arent known for their taste in cuteness but yes i would say it is cute, even though im not sure how it exists.

well, there were dinosaurs, way back in the mesozoic era, but im guessing that is not what you mean by dragons. so... no. we didnt have dragons. we didnt have any animal with abilities not explainable by science, tho maybe these animals have explanations, its just nobody has found them yet.

Well.. work here doesn't require art degrees, so you can get into your big league job quickly.

[ She doesn't know what Ny is.. but it sounds hard living there. ]

You don't have to thank me. [ of course if she knew he was going around wearing a Mask instead of bare faced like everyone else, it'd be different.. ] But what was he trying to help??

And okay, I will remember that. Using that example, Juvia understands what you're trying to report. I would like to read it when you finish writing it. You are right, though, that is definitely not what Juvia meant when she said dragons.
Do you think you'll be able to figure out why some of these creatures are here by yourself? Will Evras help you?

yeah, a whole new world, huh? i could maybe get a job as a photographer here but i think it's better to go the science route. my aunt would be proud, she always wanted me to quit the bugle.

nyc was a dangerous place. and there were threats cops couldnt handle, though theyd never admit it. that was what he helped with.

( he's oddly passionate about Spider-Man, as always... weird........ )

im not sure what i will find out, but its at least worth a try, right? once i get information together i will show you, sure. i think he'd help if i had worthwhile research, anyway. hard to say before i start.

A fresh start, some can say. If anything, there are always side jobs you can take up. That way you can make your aunt proud, and satisfy yourself at the same time.

[ She definitely notices this time when he talks about this mystery man, prompting the more imaginative parts of Juvia's mind to come up with a reasonable explanation. ]

Peter, do you have a crush on this man?
You don't have to answer. Juvia just wants to know.

Thank you. Knowledge like that would be valuable to every one of us. If anything, you can try asking some of the locals. They're very willing to provide information. And if you need help with any animals in the water, I can help as well.

( JUVIA WHY

peter should be counting his lucky stars that he has the secrecy of a phone screen to protect his embarrassed stammering. )

what? i... no! no, its not like that. i believe in what he does and what he stands for. thats all

( handled that so smoothly... nice. nailed it. perfect execution. )

good idea. i can ask around, and if i run into any aquatic species, i will hit you up.

Juvia was just asking..
You can tell me later if this is too public for you.

[ she doesn't believe you...... whoever this mystery man is, they must be extremely photogenic to capture the heart of someone just doing their job ]

Juvia did that the first week we arrived-- they made it simple to understand as well. Try your neighbors, maybe.
You can count on Juvia. If it's in water, it's no problem.

( JUVIA PLEASE he's not in love with himself you have the wrong marvel that's tony stark )

PUBLIC IS FINE, I DO NOT HAVE A... NO.

( surely the fact that he went capslock when peter rarely hits his shift key enunciates his point perfectly...... right? )

its a good idea. i'll see what i can scrape up, & let me know if you need me for anything. (•̀ᴗ•́)و

Okay.
Then you just believe in what this mystery man fights and stands for.
Nothing else remotely suspicious.
Juvia understands.

[ his capslock manages to stop her.. for now. but those are clearly words of denial from someone in LOVE and she will get the truth out no matter how embarrassing it may be!! ]

Juvia will, when she figures out everything. The same goes for you, as well.
Have a good day, Peter. ( ^:

( sweats in secret

surely she'll never ask about this again!!!! )

(you too, juvia )
