week five, monday

[countermeasures]

[rng gave me the renn faire so here they are.

jiuqing is stopped at one of the stalls selling costumes, frowning a little at some of the bodices and corsets.]

...this seems like it would be uncomfortable...

[allomantic]

They are.

[war flashbacks]

[countermeasures]

[oh... huh]

This sort of thing is common where you're from? [i don't know why "war flashbacks" took me out so hard] I'm so sorry.

[allomantic]

[she nods]

Noblewomen typically wear them to balls and other social functions.

[countermeasures]

[looks at the corsets again

thinks about it



frowns]

Ew.

[allomantic]

Yes, that is a good summation.

[countermeasures]

Well, let's take a look around and see if we can find something nicer.

[allomantic]

[as she looks around:]

It seems a little like back home... We had marketplaces that resembled this.

[countermeasures]

What was the best part of those marketplaces?

[allomantic]

The food.

[easy answer.]

[countermeasures]

[well she



immediately perks up at that]

Let's go find some!

[allomantic]

[it prompts a little smile, but she nods.]

I see a stall selling meat nearby...?

[countermeasures]

Let's try it!

[she has never eaten a turkey leg like this before but


as soon as she gets one she's biting in.]

[allomantic]

These are larger than I have seen them before...

[but she takes a bite, too. fooooood.]

[countermeasures]

[food...



jiuqing will be polite and not talk with her mouth full as she chows down. but she's giving off the equivalent of animal crossing flowers and anime sparkles as she does, so.]

[allomantic]

[this is so pure

once she's done chewing:]

It's good...!

[countermeasures]

It is!

[animal crossing flowers forever]
