The kingdom of Lyneel - one of the cheerier islands in the North Blue, that much was for sure. The sun was shining in the bright blue sky, marred only by a handful of fluffy white clouds that looked like something out a children's book. In fact, the whole island had that sort of vibe, with the brightly colored castle and the rolling green hills... It was the perfect place to visit after the rather drab and dull islands the Porcelain Lady had seen as of late. But there was more to do here than take in the sights - Lyneel was the location Bianca had decided upon to meet with Yvonne Leblanc, a colleague of her mentor, Dr. Saul.
The white-haired woman had disembarked on her lonesome, content to walk around the city for now. There was still another day until the agreed upon meeting time, so there wasn't any rush to find Dr. Leblanc. And, for once, Bianca had a chance to take things slow, simply taking in the sights - there was no pressing concern weighing in the back of her mind. Sure, there was the case of "Food Court" and those mysterious criminals, but it wasn't as if she had anything solid to go on; there was no use worrying about something that was so far out of her reach.
In the relative warmth of the sun, Bianca had opted for an outfit better suited to the sunny day than any of her suits - a simple, undecorated white sundress and a pair of similarly simple white slip-on shoes. She had debated a wide-brimmed sun hat as well, but the majority of the islands she had found herself on as of late had been overcast and bleak; it would have been a shame to appreciate the sun to its fullest today. Perhaps she would wear it tomorrow to meet with Yvonne...
She found herself standing in front of yet another corner cafe, rows of tasty snacks on show behind a display window facing out into the street. I could go for a treat... Those lemon squares look particularly good. Oh, why not? Without any real argument to not do so, Bianca took a step into the cafe.
And right after she stepped inside, a peculiar person rounded the street. A particularly androgynous sort of person with a striking sense of fashion - a dark blue velvet suit jacket worn over a t-shirt with the words "BAM!" written across the chest in bright yellow block letters, a pair of red-and-black plaid corduroy shorts, flip-flops, and a pair of bright pink, super-reflective aviators. The person's fiery red hair was styled up into a series of curving spikes, not dissimilar from a cockatoo's crest feathers. They stopped their movement as they rounded the street corner, looking up, down, and up the street again before making their way back the way they had come, muttering to themself as they went. "They said that they saw her ship in the harbor... Wherever could she be? If I find out that they've been lying to me... Oh, that boy is such a bad influence on the men. I'll have to have words with the boss once this nightmare is dealt with..."
