Re: CHAPTER TWO

( mafuyu is going to watch for a moment, and try and see who all is here... she really wishes her cardigan or dadcape was here though. at least shes cute. )

[supherb]

--! Mafuyu! When'd you get here?

[He knows it'll hardly help, but he offers his vest to her regardless.]

[beathollow]

Oh- um. Thank you. And, a little bit ago... I'm not entirely sure what's going on, beyond the palace standards...

[supherb]

I think we're probably in Yoon's palace...at least, that's what the main theory is. Maybe this is a place he lived in or knew?

[beathollow]

... I see. I'm not surprised, honestly. He's been acting out. I wouldn't be surpirsed if Argenti also manifests one soon, too...

( she inhales. fuck the god of conflict, all my homies hate the god of conflict. )

Are we meant to help the village, do you think?

[supherb]

...Yeah. I wouldn't be either.

[Argenti has been super weird. And scary. But Arven thought he was scary even before whatever's going on right now.]

That's what I'm thinking. I helped a lady with her cooking while she told me and Joshua about this place. It's...sad. I feel bad for everyone here.

[beathollow]

What did she say?

[supherb]

She said the leaders of this place put all their money into the military and leave villages like this to rot. They've got like, nothing here. No supplies, no food, no one looking out for crime.

[beathollow]

Power without the kindness to nurture is useless.

[supherb]

[Mafuyu's response is heavy and well above Arven's stature. Wow. Powerful.]

...Y-Yeah.

[beathollow]

...

I. I have a lot of thoughts and feelings on the subject.

[supherb]

I didn't think anything bad about it! I agree! I was just surprised by how you said it, like... Wow.

[Wheeze.]

[beathollow]

Was it strange...?

[supherb]

No! Nonono, it was, um... Cool. Like, you tell 'em!

[beathollow]

... I've never been called "cool" before...

[supherb]

W-Well, now you have. Because you sounded so cool.

[beathollow]

... Ehe. Thank you, Arven.

( he even gets the elusive real, legit, warm smile! this will beat the cold weather for sure- (no) )

[supherb]

[You joke but Arven does feel warmer after seeing that smile.]

Heheh. Just being honest.

[beathollow]

Compliments feel different here... I wonder why that is.

[supherb]

Hopefully it's a good kind of different...

[Arven she literally thanked you for it.]

[idealies]

Are you cold?

[ The cape Ai's borrowed is presumably pretty big on her, large enough to wrap part of it around Mafuyu's shoulders while they have a moment of rest. ]

[beathollow]

Oh- thank you. A little, yes... I wish I had my cardigan.

[idealies]

It sure is freezing~ I didn't check Nekiya's forecast when I set out today.

[ Ai attempts light-hearted talk. Mafuyu always looks a little down, it makes her wonder if she's okay. ]

[beathollow]

( oh, absolutely not but you're so appreciated, ai! )

Oh, that wiley weather app.

[idealies]

Though I guess we aren't in the Nekiya exactly. This is someone's palace. Hopefully just a little further and we can bring them home.

[ She's worried, but she has to keep a positive front. She thinks it's how she can best support others. ]
