FORMAT: WHATEVER YOU PREFER.

Nina watched as the white dress faded away, giving place to her previous clothes again. She frowned with an bewildered smile, finding this transformation strangely amusing, hands sliding up and down her jacket's sleeve to get used to the new (old) fabric. She gave the massive illusion behind her one last look before she walked away with a grin and a soft chuckle, placing the back of her hand against her lips.

Five minutes later, she undid her hairdo. Long and brown hair draped on her shoulders and over her face as she practically glided down the street. She brushed it back with shut eyes. Nina wasn't quite sure where she was anymore, but as far as she was concerned, it didn't matter. She felt good, relaxed and at peace, like everything was right with the world and herself. Nothing in her questioned where she had just come from or what had happened there; nothing questioned the unnaturally good mood that had taken over.

For those sensitive to the power running through her veins, however, there was something clearly not quite right. All the magic and illusion that had been around her had also taken its effect, taken in by her own power without any outlet. Even a few, common passersby could notice a strange glow on her skin -- a visual manifestation of warm chills that appeared and faded like a wave of soft light.

Tonks has spent most of the day exploring the city. It was true that she could have just apparated to any place that she wanted. However, she didn't know where those places might be and she didn't want to get splinched. There might not be anyone around to reattach a lost limb or toe.

Her feet are tired but so far she's done a pretty good job of getting the layout of the city. It's just a pity that she's mainly focused on the map and not really where she's going. Every so often she'd look up but then it was right back down at that map again.

It's a wonder that she hasn't caused a ten-car pile up yet.

Nina has taken another moment to stop and simply... breathe with her eyes shut, like she suddenly feels the need to rest and find some meditation for the sensations running through her body, from her shoulders to her fingertips. There's power looking for an outlet and she is offering it none, save for her unusual displays of cheer and distraction and the flickers of a very vague light that somehow convinces passersby to go around her, instead of simply shoving her out of the way with convenient bumps on her shoulder.

Tonks suddenly put the map down and stopped short of colliding with Nina. "Oh, I'm so sorry. I almost ran right over you." It was a good thing she had stopped. Upon glancing at the woman, Tonks wondered if she could handle her sort of clumsiness.

Nina opened her eyes with a sharp breath, like someone suddenly waking up to answer a question. There was a little Mm?, a small curve on the corners of her lips when she took in the figure and accent of the woman standing before her.

"That's okay." She said, glancing down at the map. She gasped softly. "Are you a tourist?"

"I'm really sorry, should have been paying a bit more attention." Tonks looked down at her map and then back to Nina. "No, not really, just moved here, trying to figure out where everything is." Well, it was the truth. She just left a few things out. "Don't want to get lost or have to rely on this," she held up the map.

"Oh, I see." Nina tilted her head, half interested, half absentminded. "Where are you from?"

"London," Tonks replied. "What about you? Have you lived in The City long?"

"London? Really?" She tilts her head, her voice pitch going just a little bit higher. The apparent disregard for her question is unintentional, trumped by a little enthusiasm and remark that doesn't make much sense. "I just came from there!"

"Yeah, really." Her reply trailed off so that Tonks could pay her just a bit more attention. "Oh, did you go visit on holiday?"

"No." She's grinning, so very honest. "I stumbled upon it after work."

Tonks tilted her head at the other woman. "I beg your pardon?"

Nina chuckled a little, like Tonks' confusion was a proper source of amusement. Her finger pointed in a general direction. "It's right over there."
