post palace hot pot party (week 7)

[townmusician]

[Yoon's Palace has faded away, but the fact the God of Conflict decided to show up and intervene again...

Well, that's! Not a good sign! To say the least! But there's nothing to be done about that right now, and Haruka isn't of the mind to really sit and wonder about divine conflicts and grandstanding and all of that, anyways. It's not his problem. The people who deal with that sort of thing on the regular can be in charge of all of that.

What he's in charge of (by virtue of being annoying) is... hot pot. Specifically rounding up everyone and dragging them out to a hot pot restaurant in the city.

He'll miss having money but... he'll just have to work hard to earn it back... Have fun, everyone. (Or maybe he can find a way to charge Mina for this?)]

[Okay, now he's having a proper reaction. His jaw drops a little.]

You what? Holy cow... You'd think I'd get used to hearing this crazy stuff, but I keep getting surprised anyway.

[There are so many not-human powers out there.

But after the initial shock fades, disappointment sets in.]

...I don't blame you for wanting to see, though. I can't imagine not being able to eat regular food. And having to drink blood of all things instead? I hear it's pretty good in some meals but it's not easy to come by.

Surprise~

[Now just imagine if the game was powers-on!

But as Arven's disappointment sets in, Celeste does offer him a bit of a sympathetic smile.]

I have had... many decades to get used to it, don't worry. [There's the 'oh btw, I'm o l d' lore drop, too, for the triple whammy.] It has been provided while I am here, likely for the safety of the other chosen. And it's easier to come by than one might think besides.

[So. You know. That's sure why there are those blood bags in the fridge.]

[More internal buffering...]

Decades? For our safety??

[Huh?? Bwuh???? Maybe he shouldn't ask more questions. It's just going to make his head hurt worse.

Okay just one more for now.]

Wh...at d'you even call what you are?

[cirquedesang]

I was human once, seventy-six years ago.

[Okay, maybe that's bullying him a little bit. But it answers the decades question!!]

But the more common name for what I am is vampire, if something by that name exists in your world.

[Fictional or not...]
