[ ... do not laugh, aymeric. He smiles and maybe that's enough to tell her he thinks this is a little funny. ]

Here.

[ A fancy handkerchief. Yes, it's blue-patterned. shut up. ]

[fleshedout]

...

[Looks at it.]

[Looks at him.]




[Okay she'll take it but it's a QUICK WIPE OVER HER FACE and she's tossing it back at him!!! Binch!!]

Thanks.

[disestablishment]

[ Well, when she holds it, it is warm and comforting, but then she TOSSES IT BACK. He catches it and stows it away. ]

You're welcome. [ To the kappa. ] What... Is this creature?

[fleshedout]

[wow who needs warm and comforting!!!]

...Kappa. That's what I've heard. They're a nuisance.

[disestablishment]

[ EVERYONE, HOT PANTS. ]

... What a strange name.

[ The kappa shrieks KISS!!!! ]

And a strange cry? As if it were trying to speak to us.

[fleshedout]

Sure is a strange name.

[A glance back.]

I wouldn't listen to them. It's just nonsense, probably.

[A kappa yells SHIPPING!!!.]

[disestablishment]

[ what... if kappa will tell them secrets? Aymeric kneels down to see the downtrodden corgi-sized creature. ]

Shipping? I'm afraid we may not know your plea, so we cannot provide.

[ i hope it attacks him ]

[fleshedout]

Uh, Aymeric-



[The kappa looks at him.]

[And proceeds to launch itself at his face with a ferocious cry of WHY NO SHIPPING.]

A-AYMERIC-!

[BRB LAUNCHING HERSELF FORWARD TO TRY TO YANK THE THING OFF]

[disestablishment]

[ He's about to catch it before it can just knock him out with a headbutt, but then she's launching hERSELF??

And this mess of where are hands going. He hot potatoes it to her, like she ripped it from his hands, but it screeches THIS LOVELESS LAND... DESOLATE! So he will take it back before it attacks her. ]

[fleshedout]

A-Aymeric, hold on, I-

[what is HE doing! HELLO??]

[(The Kappa squints its beady eyes screaming HAND IN UNLOVABLE HAND!!! and tries to move to bat its little paws(?) against the elezen's face.)]




[Yeah no, she's trying to punch it out of his arms.]

[disestablishment]

[ HE IS MAKING SURE THAT IT DOESN'T ATTACK HER? He can hold it by the shell from the back. It can't attack him like this when his arms are so long, too.

Except she punches it... And it's sent flying. This is fine. ]

No words can reach it and we still do not know what "shipping" entails.

[fleshedout]

[Yeah, there it goes. Kappa Hole in One.]

[She grits her teeth and huffs.]

...At this point, I don't really care.

[disestablishment]

[ i was too busy crying over the headband and forgotten

He crosses his arms. ]

It could be part of this realm's mystery... [ no it isn't aymeric ] But that aside, did you have a look at the newly risen tunnel?

[ Turning, he sees more kappa slowly coming out of it. ]

Oh, gods.

[fleshedout]

[aymeric's headband moment...]

...Annnnd I think that's time for us to go. [Gently pushing him.] Move your long legs out of here before they see us.
