Volg & Euphie: Starting a new life
Atia had allowed them all to return home. Though she was gracious enough to do a few other things as well. She allowed some to go home and allowed them to bring another person with them. Some of them had terrible fates waiting for them in their world, and going with someone was a way to escape that.
Not only that, but she let them take their funds with them. Money accumulated in Atia transferred to their currency. And those that went to foreign worlds were setup in them, somewhat. Records and papers of their existence appear in all the right systems so they just wouldn't be someone that has no record at all of them.
It was like that with Euphie. She'd come back to Volg's world with him. She's been living with him for the last two weeks in his New York City apartment. And he felt bad because it was so small. But because of the money from Atia and the money from becoming a boxing champion, he was able to afford a bigger place. A place they were currently in the middle of moving in now.
Volg had more stuff than her, so the bulk of it was his. He carried a box of clothes into the place. He was just wearing a pair of shorts, tennis shoes and a sleeveless shirt. Hefting the boxes was so simple for him. He placed the box down in what would be their living room and chuckled a bit.
"Only about a dozen more boxes and we will be finished."

"You're new home is really lovely." And she does absolutely think of it as his home even though she'll be staying there with him, something she's grateful for.

He couldn’t wait to get over that feeling. He is happy to just..be able to live a normal life again. No curses or mandatory sex, no crazy gods and monsters. Just normal.
“Our home.” He says as he gives the place a once over. “I got this place for us, so don’t look at it as just mine. And don’t feel like you have to stay here if you ever want to go off on your own.”
no subject
"Thank you. All of this has been beyond generous and sweet of you. I admit it's...different being in a new world when the other people there have always been there." She feels so much more out of place here than she ever could have on the island. Though it does remind her somewhat of the culture shock of exploring Area 11 on her own in disguise or at least what passed for a disguise.

“I can imagine. It was different ending up on Atia, but even then, this world is far different from what that was like.” For one, they are in a big bustling city. The rest of the world is open to them as well, they aren’t stuck on just an island. He honestly feels freer than he’d felt in a very long time.
“I know you will get used to it, though. I’m going to be with you every step of the way.” She will always be able to count on him, no matter what.
“But..I know still this must be difficult for you.” It wasn’t likely that she would meet anyone else that she actually knows here. No family, no old friends. That couldn't be a good feeling.

"I'm sure it will get easier every day. What about you? Is it good to be home or is it more complicated than that?"
no subject
In a world where no supernatural powers or anything exist, he’s experienced such things. He’s seen and done things that no one would ever believe, because how could it ever be possible? The only person that knew and could understand was Euphie. In a way, he wonders if she’s the one doing him the favor by coming back to his world with him.

"I believe it is something we both should be able to get through together." Or at least find some place where they could be okay after all that has happened.
"Thank you for coming with me, Euphie. I don't..think I have really thanked you for that yet."

He knew she might feel out of place as it was. There was no reason for her to feel out of place at what was supposed to be her home.
"And don't hesitate to ask if there is anything you want or if there is something I can do for you." He wanted to do all that he could for her.

"It's completely fine. I'm just happy that you came from the island at all." He would have felt terrible if she stayed. "Have you thought about what you want to do on this world?" He knew she was a princess on her home world, but here she was just a normal girl. She could do and be anything that she wants.
no subject
"I have thought about it, but really have no idea." It's a little intimidating honestly. "I never expected anything like this." She never really entertained ideas outside of doing what was needed and expected of her at home. And then on the island things just came to her. She rarely ever chose the work she wanted and when she did it was volunteering which won't help here.

"Take as much time as you need to figure that out. I'm sure the business skills you learned on Atia will help you greatly."

"If you would like to continue your education here, however, you could do that. That could be a first step for you."

She looks up curiously. "Do you really think I could?"
no subject
He smiles warmly. "I do. How about tomorrow or the day after, we go out and start looking into that? We can see what schools around here have to offer."

"We can add that to the list of things to do when we go out. There is no shortage of jobs around here." Volg might be amused to see her in certain professions, though. Giving that she is a Princess.
