voice, the earening

[roundandaround]

Um, Neechan... Do you wanna go someplace with me? [Rinku gulps. Does she sound... uncharacteristically nervous?] It's not another quest or anything.

[abnormalizes]

What is it? What's wrong?

[Did someone challenge Rinku to a fight and she needs backup???]

[roundandaround]

It's kinda embarrassing to be nervous about, but... Do you know anything about piercing parlours and stuff? I know you're not supposed to get it done at the kids' accessory store.

[abnormalizes]

I actually don't know that much about them? In the Backstreets you'd usually get a friend to do it instead of paying a professional. Getting it done in a parlor's definitely more hygienic, though.

[roundandaround]

Oh, I guess they wouldn't have them there, huh? Shouto-kun gave me earrings for Yuletide and they're enchanted and look really nice, so I didn't wanna tell him my ears weren't pierced, so now I gotta do it...

[abnormalizes]

Would it help if I came with you? Even though I don't know much about how it works.

[roundandaround]

Can you? I'm kinda nervous, even though I know I shouldn't be. People do this stuff all the time.

[abnormalizes]

It'll probably hurt less than our training sessions. But yeah, I'll come with.

action

[roundandaround]

That's probably true... I can come over.

[Rinku is through the mirror right away, dressed for Amberfall weather with a sweater the same pattern as her giraffe form. She waves and walks over to Evangeline.]

Thanks, Neechan. I figured someplace around here was probably a good idea, you guys have all the art people and stuff.

Re: action

[abnormalizes]

[Giraffe sweater cute,]

Makes sense. If not, I think I've seen some places in the mall?

[roundandaround]

I dunno where's a good place to go, but they're probably all good, right? I'm just getting kinda nervous.

[abnormalizes]

It'll be okay! You face scarier monsters than this all the time.

[roundandaround]

Yeah! Yeah, that's true! ...Although I can set those on fire...

[abnormalizes]

Good point. Please don't set the retail employees on fire.

[roundandaround]

I really don't want to.

[Rinku pulls up a list of nearby tattoo and piercing places on her phone and looks them over.]

Have you seen any of these?

[abnormalizes]

Not really... I haven't gotten any piercings here, so I haven't had much reason to go in.

[roundandaround]

Oh, right. I was thinking this one, it looks nice. That's... not that far, right? I always get lost in Amberfall. Everything's just bookstores and cafes and museums and stuff that's all three of those at once, so I go "oh, it's by the coffee shop" and then... ehe.

[abnormalizes]

It can be pretty easy to get lost, yeah. That one's about a five minute walk.

[roundandaround]

Okay! Then let's go ♪

[Rinku heads to the front door, stopping to give Misu a pat and a treat if she sees her.]

Thanks a lot, Neechan! Were you gonna do anything else today?

[abnormalizes]

[Misu appreciates! Evangeline follows shortly after.]

I didn't have any huge plans! Maybe do some reading.

[roundandaround]

[Time to head outside and towards the shop!]

Oh, what all are you reading? Is it research and stuff?

[abnormalizes]

Nope! Werewolf romance.

[roundandaround]

What's it about? Other than werewolves, and romance, huh.

[abnormalizes]

Two werewolf guys from rival packs are competing over this one human girl's affections. It's honestly pretty trashy and cliche, but it's fun.

[roundandaround]

Oh, that sounds fun! Why do people call stuff trashy even when they like it, anyway?
