What.

[Nita just doesn't have words for this.]

I mean, I guess I could put one on top of my shadow? Or try, rather; it'd just end up on top of it.

[Assuming they stay normal shadows.]

[ Welcome to Khu Ioduan, Nita! >:3 ]

I can recommend a dance partner, if you want one!

[She's very thankful this is text, or there'd have been a very awkward pause.]

Sure?

[She'd mention her sister, but this doesn't sound like the sort of thing Dairine would like being roped into.

Now, starting, maybe...]

Yes! He’s super game for anything. And he’ll only charge 5 rhinn for the whole package.

[ Ilda’s willing to pay the 5 rhinn herself, but it’s worth a shot. ]

He’s really cool. You’ll like him!

5 rhinn, huh?

I think I have at least that much on me.

[She'll have to check.]

So, he's cool with blankets?

[Have a shy attempt at a joke, Ilda!]

[ Okay, Ilda can’t resist that. Laughing, she switches to video. ]

Classic, Nita! Cool with blankets! Hi!

But, yes, he is!

Actually... the 5 rhinn’s not even really a fee. [ She likes you already, Nita, so she doesn’t want you to think you’re being scammed. ] Believe it or not, he says he’s a god. And he’s willing to grant wishes, but it’s customary in his world to have offerings — and he badly needs them, because he doesn’t have a shrine so he’s homeless!

[ She genuinely looks distraught by Yato’s fate. What a terrible situation to be in, to be homeless. ]

[And Nita ends up doing the same~

While her eyes widen at the explanation, it's not the strangest thing she's ever been told.

Or lived through, really.]

So, he has to rebuild everything from back home?

[How terrible! She doesn't even need the wishes, really, but now Nita just wants to help him out for his own sake.]

How long has he been here?

Nice dance. If only my twin brother was here we could have made one too. Unfortunately, he' back home I suppose. 😢

(Mabel was saddened that she was alone.. No Dipper. How will she survive?)

He doesn’t even have a shrine back in his world. He said he’s still an up-and-coming god, or something. He has a room in the Dreaming Bridge like all of us, but in principle he’s homeless without a shrine.

He’s been here a couple of months. Around the same time I arrived, I think.

I’ve been helping him advertise, but... I don’t know, I have no problem selling my stuff in the market, but most people I mention Yato to think he’s a hoax or a fraud or something. [ Ironically, Ilda doesn’t even really believe Yato’s a god. Or so she says. It’s hard to tell, with the way she’s become super invested in him. ]

holy queen mother
you have a twin brother too???
and thank you!!!
isn’t this dance like the coolest ever?
BLANKET SUITS ROCK

[Huh. So, a bit like the Hesper's situation, except reliant on both belief and a presence of general intermediate stages.]

I'd definitely like to talk with him, then, just in general. Maybe help build the shrine.

[Assuming all those funds aren't just for the permit to build a shrine. How much does real estate even cost here?]

I've met gods back home, though, so I don't mind helping either.

...what are those.

I have.. He’s name is Dipper. He’s so into finding out the mysteries in my Grunkle Stan’s place. I miss him already.

Wish he was here, then we could have participated in this coolest dance ever. I’ll probably ask him to do our version this dance when i get back.. if i get back. 😢

[She’s still sad of the thought that Dipper was not around.]

Wait what? You have a twin brother too? How is he like? I think he’s like you.. so friendly and happy.

[She just relized after sending the first text that Ilda mentioned about having a twin brother too.]

....No.

[ She rolls her eyes, although she's already expected this. ]

Gee, you're really a spoilsport, Conan.

Do even know what fun is?

Really, you'd do that? That's super nice of you! [ Most people won't even bother to consider talking to him. ]

... what are gods like in your world?

[ This is a bit of sore subject for her, but... well, Yato so far has turned out to be quite different from what she's expecting. So maybe gods from other worlds are just cooler than what they're stuck with in hers. ]

hey hey it's okay
they said we'll get home eventually :)
i miss my brother too
but he probably won't do this dance with me
he's nice but he's not cool
you're lucky to have a brother who'd do this with you
dipper sounds fun
i love adventure and mysteries
ivarr is just so SERIOUS

BLANKET SUITS
Aifaran's gift to the world
or worlds, you know
they're so cozy!

Is it truly a craze if if it's just the two of you afflicted by it?

[She actually sounds.... almost amused? Have you made the Ultimate Goth actually smile? the world may never know.]

Edited (two 'the's in a row is bad news bears) 2018-07-23 07:22 (UTC)

Of course I do! Solving mysteries is fun.

[Nita rubs at the back of her head, sheepish smile on her face.]

A balance of attentive, respectful of free will, and sometimes just plain weird.

[Not counting their oldest Adversary...]

...they sure are something else.

[Pepper has to wait until she stops giggling madly to respond to this.]

Oh my god, this is hilarious, you two. Seriously, this is great. Where'd you get the blankets, did you make them?

That’s so... adulty! Why don’t you do fun kid stuff like games, or frolic in the woods?
