Matilda sighed with relief. [color=006d5b]"Let's go say hello, then."[/color] she said, heading towards the sounds of talking.

OOC: @Slenn: Replied to EMily above, in case you missed it. 
Steve shook his head.
"Nah, I'm alright though. She looks pretty rough though." He glanced over at Joanna.
"Hey kid... kid? Joanna!" She whirled around startled, one hand going for her hip where a sword should have been.
"When was the last time you ate?" At this, she looked sheepish.
"It... it's been a while." She said quietly, and the hand at her hip moved subconsciously to her abdomen.

[color=006d5b]"G'day."[/color] Matilda said, though who she was addressing may be hard to work out, since she was staring off into the distance blankly.
<color=purple>"You shouldn't judge a book by its cover, as I said to Samus earlier. And you'll find plenty of fighters here. You'll be in good company." Gwen said in response to him saying he was a soldier.
"We should get her some food. Let's bring her inside."
"We should get her some food. Let's bring her inside."
Once they were at a reasonable distance to the ship, Sophia started to get a better idea who was actually by the ship. "Sorry we're a bit late for the welcome party, we were taking a bit longer to get back." Sophia said to the group members by the ship. "Is everything alright, she doesn't look the greatest?" Sophia asked as she looked towards Joanna.
Steve looked around at the rest of the group who were congregating on the beach, noting Samus as the most obvious warrior present.
"So I see. Uh... wait, good company? Where are you all headed anyway?" As he spoke, he picked up on Sophia's question.
"She was passed out in the sea. Took a fall from the cliffs... or some cliffs, anyway. And she hasn't eaten in ages. I'm guessing that she's from another world like the rest of you, and wherever she's from doesn't sound like a utopia. Agreed though. Some food would probably be a good start." He glanced at the ship and sighed. "Of course, I presume you mean to bring her in there."

"Don't think I've ever seen one of these things actually fly reliably. Temporarily, yeah, but every time I've been on one, it ended up falling out of the sky. It doesn't exactly build confidence in the aeronautical industry."
Joanna turned to look at Steve and the others in disbelief.
"This... ship can fly? Is it magic?" she asked dubiously. "That would take immense power. More than any one sorceror could muster..."

Finding herself completely ignored, Victoria realized she wasn't much of a presence to intimidate the newcomers into staying straight. Groaning to herself, she walked over to the ship and climed up the side. She crouched on the roof to keep an undos turned eye on the surroundings.
"Are you hurt anywhere? What's your name?" Sophia motioned to Joanna, although her ears were covered up by the sunhat she was wearing, Joanna would notice Sophia's ferret mask, pointed teeth, and tail. "Did you come with her, um... sir?" She then looked back to Steve, not knowing his name either.
Seras and Faro finally walked over to see what everyone else was doing. They saw the two newcomers, but decided to wait to introduce themselves.
Steve glanced briefly down at the cane's tip, then back to Matilda.
"Captain Stephen Rogers. I'm here trying to track down an old squadmate of mine. I just happened by when Joel was pulling Joanna out of the surf. And who are you?" He shook his head at Sophia.
"I'm from across the pond in this world. I don't know where she comes from, but it certainly isn't America."
Joanna turned to Sophia, her every movement jittery, speaking of a history of stress, fear and suspicion. She brushed her hair away from her temple to reveal the large purple bruise there.
"I think that's the worst of them. Everything else is sore, but not as bad. I've had worse. So much worse."

Seras saw Vicky climb onto the ship's roof. Wandering what she was doing, she walked over. "What are you doing up there?" she asked?
"Sophia Aethis-" Sophia stopped herself as she noticed the large welt on Joanna's head. "Uh, let me tell you more in a second." The concern in Sophia's voice apparent.
"Look, um Joanna was it? I only really know what happened to you from what Stephen said here, but if you'll allow me I'd like to take care of that bruise. If you'll let me, please?" Sophia asked, trying to be as sympathetic and sincere as she could. The way Joanna was acting it reminded her of a wounded animal, a bit confused, but just as dangerous and unpredictable as ever. "You don't have any problems with white magic, do you? Healing stuff?"
