thalassashells | Forty-Third Shower

[Hey. How ya doing? Are you out in the village today? Then you might notice a certain redhead dressed a bit differently than her usual attire running through the village with a satchel at her side. She darts around a corner, hiding for a few minutes before peering around to make sure she's not being followed and she sneaks back out into the middle of the village square. She'll be wandering around, casually glancing for new places to hide and guarding that satchel.]

Welllll...looks like the brothers just couldn't keep up. [She'll pat her satchel, making sure her prize is still inside.] Guess that means I'll hold onto this for safe keeping.

This place just got a little busier, didn't it?

[Perfect for an attempt to blend in, in fact. So you may run into her as she's prowling the village, also making sure there aren't any wanted posters. Oh, and don't mind her trying to get her smolder on around you fine people. Who knows, maybe on her walk she'll accidentally run into a princess or three, or even the authorities.

Let's hope it's not the palace guards.]

At least I'm a good one. [But yeah, that's a bit of a dilemma..]

Need a lift? I should find a new hiding spot anyway.

You don't secretly want me to marry a relative of yours, do you?

I don't have any relatives. Believe me, you're in the clear.

Then yes, please. I'm only trying to get home.

[In that case, she's holding out a hand to let Mia up.] You'll have to direct me to where home is.

The fourth building, on the first floor.

[Climbs gratefully into Kairi's hand and sits back down. She feels so tired.]

That's not too far. [And she's lifting her up, getting off of the ground and rising to her full height.] We'll be there soon.

[Mia stays sitting. Standing up in a moving hand at such a height would be dangerous. And she doesn't feel strong enough to keep her balance.]

I hope I can stay there.

[She'll even be nice enough to cup her hand a bit to keep Mia enclosed, but not enough to block her entirely.] Well as long as more frogs don't break into your place, you should be okay. Do you have somebody there who can look out for you?

Piers should be there. ...But I wouldn't burden him with trying to keep animals out of the apartment all day.

That's what friends are for though, isn't it? Something like that.

I don't know if he is himself.

What makes you say that? Because of everything that's going on?

Because I haven't had the chance to ask him yet.

There's only way way to find out. It'll be okay.
