Oh. I don't think I've seen anyone like that. But if I do I can let you know! That seems like it would....stand out, so I'm sure if she is here, we'll find her!

[Sakura just has an older brother, but she can only imagine she'd worry and want to know if Toya did show up. So she can understand Anna's determination on that front at least.]

I don't know that my brother really looks like me. But your sister should be easy to spot with all that. I think these lockets are supposed to help. Maybe if you don't see her here at the Feast if you use that to ask?

[deiced]

[ The locket. She didn't think of that. She looks at it now, eyeing it with equal parts curiosity and uncertainty. Elsa's the one with the magic. Anna's just... ordinary. She can't use this, can she? ]

Do you know how these work?

[keystaff]

[Sakura's gaze turns down to the locket as well, one hand reaching for it as she frowns slightly. This is new, different from the phones back home, but surely it isn't that difficult. Not if the monarchs want them to be able to communicate with each other. Right? At least, that's what she figures.]

I haven't used it yet, but I'm sure it isn't too hard. Maybe if I help we can figure it out together?

[deiced]

You don't have these either?

[ Clearly she's not in Kansas Arendelle anymore, and the mishmash of people here all look confused enough that it's not a huge leap of logic to assume they're in the same boat. ]

In Arendelle if you want to talk to someone far away you pretty much just send them a letter, or send a messenger or something-- oh.

[ That reminds her that she's totally forgotten to introduce herself. Letting the locket hang around her neck again she dips in a curtsey that only looks so proper to laymen through endless practice, and would probably send most royalty with any sense of occasion running for the hills. ]

I'm Anna, by the way.

[keystaff]

Not lockets like this no. We had lockets, but they weren't used to talk to people like these ones are, I mean.

[She tries to explain while attempting to be reassuring. This isn't something she's used to. Usually it's Kero or someone else explaining things to her, not Sakura herself trying to tell others about this sort of thing.]

Oh. Yes, we had mail too, but phones were quicker. You'd just pick it up, put in their number and they pick their phone up and you'd talk to them. I'm sure the lockets aren't too different...

[But oh then Anna gives a curtsey and Sakura can't help but attempt one herself, likely more clumsy than Anna's through lack of practice at all.]

Anna. I'm Sakura.

[deiced]

Nice to meet you.

[ She smiles, big and genuine, and it's already clear that she's one of Those people who will absolutely consider them friends from this moment on and act accordingly. ]

So 'phones' - they work by magic too?

[keystaff]

You too! I know this is all kind of....strange, but we're not alone here.

[Not if they help each other out like this. And Sakura is more or less the same in the 'friendship' stage of things so at least that shouldn't get too awkward between them.]

Oh, no. They're run using electricity. Like lights? It's technology. I'm not sure what year it was for you, but it's something we have back home where --when I'm from.

[deiced]

[ Bless her heart, Anna is really trying to look like she understands, even harder than she's actually trying to understand it to begin with. But even though she nods, there's a blank quality to her look and a slight confusion in the furrow of her eyebrows that makes it abundantly clear - she doesn't. ]

Right...

[keystaff]

I know it must be....confusing and a lot to take in. I would show you if we had one here. It'd probably be easier than the lockets.

[Because if Anna thinks she's fooling Sakura and trying to look like she gets it, she doesn't. At all. The girl can be highly perceptive at times regarding others. But that just makes her try to reassure the other.]

I'll try help. And if I see -- Elsa? I'll definitely let you know, so don't worry, okay? Everything will be all right!
