Cast of Characters: Hinoiri Kirara

Hinoiri sat on one of the office tables, a television she had made Ted drag in setup with her game station. Normally, someone living in the office wasn't really a thing they were supposed to do. Normally someone wasn't a unicorn from another world who had been raised as the protege of a sun god. So they made some temporary exceptions.

Hinoiri was sitting with her knees up to her chest, head resting on them and a blanket wrapped tightly around herself so only her head could be seen, the controller disappeared within as if it had been swallowed by the bedding. The blinds were closed, but that didn't matter. There was nothing out there to see, anyway. She wouldn't admit it, but she hated that about this place. You couldn't see the stars. Even if you could, they weren't personal. They weren't... special. They were just there. Random balls of gas in the sky. Not placed precisely by your divine ruler. But this world hid even that. It was so bright, so loud. The smells, ugh, she hated the smells. The air wasn't fresh, no tinge of magic in the air. It was just... air. The smell of gas. A part of her... wanted to go home. A tiny part. Not that she would EVER acknowledge it. After all, she was... here. Alone. Sora never came for her. Sora could have... but didn't. Well, it didn't matter. One day, she'd be more powerful than her so called mentor ever knew. Then SHE'D be calling the shots.

She was still getting used to fingers, though. Thanks to the help of a pair of kids with the weirdest hair she had ever seen, she was getting the hang of it. She'd been slowly 'mastering' all of the games she'd been given. Now she'd moved onto a rather... strange one. An open world, modern game. It was... weird. Even she could pick up that some things were in jest, but she didn't get it all. But it WAS really helping her get used to having fingers. Holding the controller, going between different button presses constantly, it was all making her get the feel for how they moved their hands. Sure, her hand writing was still utter garbage, but that was unlikely to ever change. She was even learning more about this world. Apparently plumbers saved princesses (made sense to her) and dragons weren't real (made less sense). But she'd had yet to find anything good about this world, aside from its weird magic.

Even this weird game, so focused on 'cars', seemed bland. Why did everyone go around in those big metal things? It was so boring. Like going around in a suit of armor. Whoopdie doo. Bor--

Then, in the game, something blew by her and made her freeze. She turned towards it, but it was already gone. What was THAT?

Three more times in the game it happened before she finally caught on. Something... new. Rather than a suit of armor, it was akin to an attachment to the legs. Allowing them to go faster... To run as if their bodies were designed for moving fast.

Motorcycles.

They were magnificent and her eyes practically sparkled when she saw them.

It seemed she had something else to learn about before she'd start 'school'.
