[On screen, Feliks is all bounce and cheer, dressed up in his nice clothes for the first time in longer than he cares to admit, smiling so much he's literally sparkling.]

Gods, how weird was all that? Does anybody know what the whole deal was down there? 'Cause I don't know about the rest of you, but my team saw some pretty crazy stuff! [That's a bit of an understatement, and he is trawling for more information with this post, but he's not one to dwell too openly or too long on the big things.]

It kinda took a bit out of me and Jadwiga and the others, actually! So we're gonna be around the city for some R+R for a little while. We'll see how long it takes me to slip past my grandparents again after all the running off I've been doing. If anybody's up for, like, shopping or a drink or some serious gossip or something, hit me up.

[Action: The Forest Shrine]

[He might smile and flutter for the camera, but Feliks hasn't been his best self lately, and coming face to face with the godly embodiment of death itself...]

[Well, he's not quite sure what effect it's had on him.]

[On the one hand, maybe it was good. It's been a long time since he was so powerfully aware of his own will to live, of how much being a part of the world still means to him. He's been forced to think about the people of Union and worry about them again, and that's probably not a bad thing, in the end.]

[Part of him almost resents it, though. It's selfish of him, but he doesn't want other worries and other obligations tearing him away from trying to get back that one important thing he lost.]

[How is he supposed to live, and get the most out of life, without giving up hope that they're out there alive somewhere?]

[He's not quite sure why he came to the Forest Shrine, other than to try and find someplace quiet to be with his thoughts. A shrine seems like a good place to think about gods, anyway, right? And with his fire typing, the forest is generally pretty safe for him to walk around alone.]

[He lies down in the grass on his back, and looks up at the long branches and their new leaves, and thinking himself free from prying eyes and the need to put on a show of being perfectly fine, quickly loses himself in thought.]

[Alternative action: Around the city]

[Feliks is going to be spending a lot of time in the shopping district (and a little time at Teeter's) over the next few days, if you'd like your character to encounter him around town!]

Aren't you a fairy type? Are you sure all of that is good for you?

[Feliks isn't the only person down at the Lake Shrine today. Yuuna comes here when she needs to relax, just...floating on Hyozan's back. Nevermind that the Avalugg seems to cool the lake just by being there. He likes that, apparently. But she's not quite to the water yet when she spots a certain someone laying down near Hyozan's favorite entry point.

Hopping down off the icy titan, she waves it on and lays down beside her friend, silent for the moment.]

[ the forest shrine is one of Pearl's favourite places - not least because it is an excellent place for meditation and reflection, but also because... well, it's relaxing. and when she wants somewhere quiet to get away from the manor for a while, this is a nice place.

on this occasion, however, she's lost in her own thoughts as she wanders around, still thinking about the recent earthquake and the message that had come through from Cresselia, and so she almost trips over the person lying in the grass. ]

--Aah!! Oh my goodness, I'm sorry, I didn't see you there!

[So this guy has been coming less, recently, but every now and then he still shows up for a glass or two. Or, if he's being totally honest, it's more for the atmosphere.

And--he's been kind of staring at you. He recognises you from somewhere, but where...]
