folklorist | ϡ - Chapter TwentySix; And now for something not so different [voice/action]

[ There's a loud splash as someone gets dropped off by the droids...in the river by House 35. The figure that steps out from the embankment is not a familiar face. Most people might not recognize him or perhaps you saw him like this once before. But that's neither here, nor there. Yes, her. The voice over the transmission is completely feminine and most likely unfamiliar. ] Oh for heaven's sake not again.

[ Just an annoyed huff. Wonderful Malnosso, just wonderful. Once again he's a woman. You might hear him mumbling something under his breath as he tries to dry off clothes far too big for him now. Far, far too big since they were his but...well wardrobe change aside not much else has changed this time. Time to go shopping...again. This would be so much easier if he had any fashion sense whatsoever. Mumbled: ] You would think doing this once before would ruin the fun.

[ Oh silly Helios there is always fun to be had in Luceti. Awkward or otherwise, everyone gets involved. He clears her throat before letting out a sheepish laugh. Not very well known, in her tone at least, but the action should be familiar. ] Oh. Um. I'm-I'm back. Did...did anything happen while I was away? [ He realizes shortly afterward no one will actually recognize his voice like this. Derp. Still he sounds none too pleased about the ordeal. Helios will make his way towards the town in seek of more...appropriate clothing. Of course he's really not paying attention, his mind elsewhere at the moment, so...have a blonde haired woman tripping as she walks. A slight 'Ah!' for emphasis. Sad part is that there's not even heels involved this time. Trees. Who put those roots there? ]

((ooc; Coming off hiatus super early. Also will be replying with

magicboobs Note: Helios still identifies as himself this time around he's just female bodied. So yeah...enjoy that.))

Where are you right now? We can meet in the center of town.

Just...just outside the bakery. [ He sounds disappointed because it's closed and he wanted something sweet. No thanks to being dropped off like this he can't even get some sweets. They could have at least timed his return better. There's a slight sigh on his end. ] Thank you Frederic.

You're most welcome, Helios. I also got you some sweets from the amusement park that has been in Luceti, so we can have them when we get back to the apartment. Though I shall be where you are very soon.

[And with that he closes the journal and within a few minutes' time, he's where Helios is outside of the bakery.]

Well, it seems we meet again.

You did? [ His face lights up. ] I do really have to see this amusement park for myself.

[ He looks over and just gives a tired smile. ] Yes well I suppose the Malnosso like us reliving things best left not relived. [ A sigh. ]

Have you and Giles been alright?

Yes, we've been all right and I got you some sweets from the park. [He can see the tired smile his friend is giving and starts leading him back to the apartment.] How are you feeling?

Oh you didn't have to do that, Frederic! [ But Helios really does appreciate it and he's a bit excited about it too. ] Thank you. And I'm fine. A little dizzy from the return trip but nothing a good night's rest won't fix.

I thought it wasn't right for the Malnosso to leave you out of the festivities and well, a lot of sweets did remind me of you. [He continues walking with the other towards home.] Do you need any healing? I could do that for you.

[ Just a sigh. ] When is anything they ever do right?

[ He shakes his head blonde hair falling in front of his shoulders. ] A lot of sweets did, hm? Did you have any at least? [ He knows your aversion to them so it's said in a teasing tone. A light airy chuckle escapes him after that. Helios holds up a hand. ]

No, no. I'm perfectly alright. Aside from some bruised dignity.

I did try a chocolate chip cookie that was in a bag of various cookies I obtained from the park. It wasn't that terrible at all. [He's also being very serious about this.] Well, at least you are all right. That is a relief.

[ Just have a derpy smile from him, Frederic. ] Ah ha. I see, I see. So you liked it then?

[It was just a cookie, Helios. Frederic does not see why you are smiling about it.] Yes, it was quite delicious.

[ Because you ate a cookie out of your own accord. That is why he's smiling. ] And? You'll consider trying others sometime, perhaps?

[ He still has a stupid grin on his face. ]

[He is trying to see why you like sweets so much.] Yes, there were a few others I wanted to try.

[ because they're amazing and people should try them no matter what. ] Oh? Which ones if you don't mind me asking?

There was one in the bag which I found that was called macadamia nut.

Ah really? Macadamia nut cookies are rather good. [ This is making him rather hungry. ] Perhaps we could make some later.

We could and try more of the cookies I got from the park for you.

I'll never say no to the option of doing that. [ You have no disagreements from him Frederic. ]

[So they are walking back to the apartment and getting closer to it, hooray!]

Well it seems we're almost back to the apartment.

Thank goodness. I really need to get out of these clothes. [ He looks so embarrassed still about this whole thing. ]

If you'd like, we could stop by All Passions or get some clothes from the apartment when we arrive.

I-I might just change back at the apartment. I'll pick up some clothes to-tomorrow.

That's fine Helios, let's just get you back home.
