i really need to remember to do visuals this game
[jiuqing is hanging out in the mansion! now that she's back and settled, she's unpacking her package from the q&a and giving everything a proper look over.
when she hears footsteps, she looks up.]
Ah, hello there.

Hey.
[ good old gift bags. ]
Doing okay after your little... whatever the heck happened back there?

Oh, you mean yesterday?
[a beat.]
I'm fine. It was necessary... broken ribs are no joke! He really needed to get some proper rest.

How did he even get them in the first place? Fighting anything that moves? Which seems like the kind of shit he'd pull anyway.

I'm not certain. I became aware of them after he got into a fight with someone else, who kneed him in his already-broken ribs.
[ he shouldn’t snort.
but he does. ]
That guy’s about three seconds away from fighting anyone at any given moment, why am I not surprised someone already busted him up and he kept going?

Some people are simply... like that, I suppose.
Sure are. Most of them know how not to get totally wrecked though.
I'm not under the impression that thinking that far ahead is many people's strong suit.
[ he kinda snort laughs. ]
Oof, wow. Brutality.
Oof, wow. Brutality.
If they don't like it, they just have to get better.
Challenge issued. You'll have to tell them to their faces for them to get it, though.
[ it's monday! the clowns are no long lose, and they have heat and magical colour powers! everything is very exciting, maybe!
but it's monday, and crow's trying to get to grips with all the new things presented to them. his phone is safely by his side, his bag of goodies is in front of him and he's staring very hard at his hands.
it's probably fine? ]

I don't have any problem with doing that.
["probably," you say.
jiuqing approaches, but she keeps quiet so as to not startle him. the way he's looking at his hands makes her wonder if he's trying to use a color power on them or something.]

Honestly? I'd pay to see it.
[ fuck 'em up (verbally) jiuqing. ]
[ fuck 'em up (verbally) jiuqing. ]
Hee hee. If you happen to witness it, do be sure to pay me, sir!
[ he sure is!
it seems to be working? there's a flicker, and then an image of a pleasant and quaint looking oceanside city hovering above his hands. there's no sound, but you can almost hear the waves lapping agaisnt the harbour... lovely...
until crow makes a soft snorting sound, and bats his hand through the image until it vanishes early. ]
Geez. What's that supposed to do to help?

[ oof. ]
I'm almost scared to ask, but what's the going rate?

Well... perhaps if you were trying to describe something to someone, but were struggling to find the words...? You could simply show them.

That depends on the severity of what you hear! For something mild, perhaps just the cost of a dessert. For something more intense, an entire meal?

Fair enough. I could’ve done with this the everyone was asking me to describe Soldats. [ jiuqing…. don’t ask him to describe soldats…. ]
Not quite on the level of “let me feed you” though, huh?

Right, only the finest of stale hotdog buns for our doctor.
