[ a smile ] I'd like that. I wouldn't mind a change of clothes, but these [ the robes ] aren't so easy to move in as is.
[ HELP ME!!!!!! AT LEAST AQUA is used to her clothes being called weird in canon (even if, again, she doesn't personally think there is anything strange about them... just cultural differences, etc...) ]
...Neither. Though, a party is a nice thought. [ she is imagining a family-friendly d*sney affair... anyway! looking at camille, ]
I... would take a guess myself, but I'm afraid I'm really out of ideas.
[After a full day in them Camille can safely assert that she is not a robe girl. Alas.
She snorts, smiling at the wild guess. Gently she waves it off.]
Don't worry, I don't dress up much for work. I'm a reporter. I write for a newspaper. [And after a beat:] Uh — at the risk of sounding rude or stupid, they got anything like that where you're from?
[ me doing the kingdom hearts meta deep dive to try and figure out if they have reporters and newspapers. IN ONE OF THE WORLDS SURELY. ]
Not at all. [ if anything aqua is the one who sounds dumb between the two. ] I've heard of them, but... I grew up in a very remote location. There weren't nearly enough people to report on.
...Work didn't bring you here, did it?
[ spoken like a question, though it's more an observation. ]

Maybe we can find a good needle and thread, turn them into something more fashionable for later.
Were you... [Tilting her head, weighing the options.] A dancer, or...on your way to a party?

[She doesn't look like a country bumpkin.]
Ah, no. This is way outside my beat. I'm from Chicago. Does that ring a bell for you?
[Probably not, but anyway.]
How about you? What do you do?
no subject
[ that's really it. it's more like a monastery, though her outfit is not reflective of her upbringing at all...
she shakes her head. ]
I'm not familiar.
...I'm a traveler of sorts. It's my duty to help those in need.
[ VAGUELY BROAD BUT. YEAH! she's not a secretive person but there are some things she's not supposed to discuss. ]
no subject
Are you serious?
[Four people? Alone? Jesus, and she thought her hometown was a podunk wasteland.]
So, kind of like a wandering monk? Or more just taking up oddjobs wherever, or...?
no subject
...A bit of both. Though it's admittedly been awhile since I've gone anywhere new.
[ unsure she knows what a monk is but she can probably guess by context. WHATEVER. ]
Do you travel far as a reporter? [ doesn't know what, where, or how large the united states of america is, either....... ]
no subject
Not really. I'm on the local beat. On the rare occasion I follow a lead out of town, but never too far.
Comparing profiles here, I'm afraid I don't have a very exciting life.
no subject
There's nothing wrong with a peaceful life, either. If anything, I miss it. It would be nice to be home.
