[ In their blessed Anhkeen, they are at the markets... It is also very hot, which Joonghyuk was prepared for so he's dressed appropriately. Niah is also here and looking around! This is very familiar.
There's a lot of stuff they could potentially buy? Shadows peruse with them. ]
... Unfortunately, we can't bring any of these with us.
[ He isn't desolate potato anymore, but his figure is made up of Korean characters on white. They flow down like someone is scrolling through text. ]
[Estelle was not prepared and is not dressed properly. The good news is that it doesn't look like the desert heat is getting to her yet -- she's too excited at the sights to really feel the heat just yet. Also, she's got bunny ears.]
True... it's a shame. These textiles are gorgeous!
[She turns to face him and... just kind of stares. Sorry.]
The quality in Anhkeen was good and the vendors were open for trade.
[ So he agrees. They unfortunately can only touch fabric. For a moment, he's distracted by her bunny ears before he looks down at her directly. The word scrolling also stops. ]
But I meant, um... [She blinks as it stops?] You just looked like... there was some kind of writing... [She gestures vaguely with a hand. It probably doesn't help. How to even describe it?]

Um, are you okay...?

... Yes. My head is clear now. Why?

[ Now that he knows, the ink characters descend and disappear, revealing him to be normal.
But then wolf ears perk up on his head. ]
no subject
[Not bnuuy, but close enough.]
no subject
I'm more used to this kind of effect. The other... it never happened in my previous game.
[ He has no answers. ]
no subject
We never had anything like this in my other "game"... So something strange like this is expected to happen every week?
no subject
[ Thinking. Now he has a tail that swishes left and right. ]
We may see some other effects in the future. With Anhkeen, I believe we were cursed to want physical touch.
no subject
So they're generally harmless... right?
no subject
... Yes. Annoying, but nothing harmful. It would be better if they didn't exist.
no subject
[lookin' at you, yjh. your ears.]
no subject
[ Squints. ]
You know you have a set yourself?
no subject
That's a good thing. It makes you look friendlier and easy to approach!
no subject
[ ESTELLE... Niah looks up like :hei: i am a wolf? ]
no subject
[also good luck stopping her from approaching wolf-coded dudes, gestures at yuri's everything]
no subject
[ It's fine, it's fine. ]
Have you been to a place like this? Yuri Lowell tended to keep quiet about himself.
no subject
[Looking out at the market, and imagining it full of real people.]
no subject
You've traveled far for a vice-emperor. Generally, positions of authority don't travel too far.
no subject
[A fond smile.]
It was Yuri who helped me get out and finally see the world.
no subject
... When you say help, do you mean kidnap?
[ ??? ]
no subject
[In an instant, she sounds defensive and almost pleading, like she's had to argue this exact thing before.]
I was already trying to leave... We crossed paths, and he helped me get past the guards!
no subject
[ HELP ]
no subject
He got in trouble for it later, but I was able to issue a pardon.
no subject
... He really can't leave people alone.
