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.]

[And along comes a blond boy in a red cape carrying a basket and humming to himself. He looks rather innocent and oblivious to everything...]

[A basket huh? That means it probably has food, doesn't it? Flynnigan Kairi's attention's switching to little red riding Emil, starting to fall in line with him.]

And where do you think you're going off to?

[Emil blinks, tilting his head curiously. He didn't think Kairi usually wore stuff like that...]

Huh? I was just going to my grandmother's to bring her some food because she isn't feeling well.

[Jeeze, everybody's a critic. It's a good outfit, okay? Still, she's got her focus on that basket still, only briefly thinking Emil's story is weird because it's Emil.]

Kid, I think I've heard that story a couple of times today. So come on, what're you really hiding in there?

It's just food... you can look inside if you don't believe me.

Don't mind if I do. [And she'll be taking hold of that basket and opening it, peering inside.]

[And, sure enough, in the basket is a loaf of bread and a hunk of cheese... that's been carved into the shape of a fish. Yep, Emil is still Emil underneath that silly cloak.]
