[Unionomura, Honoka's cart shop of Calderan snacks, has been closed since the event, with a variance of signs hung from it apologizing for the prolonged absence. Some days, there was a basket of sweets with a note of "Take one!", other days there was no sign at all. Really, the Calderan girl had been abnormally scarce.]

[Today, she makes her reappearance, though not at her cart. She's sitting with her elbows on her knees and her chin in her hand when the feed pops on, though at first all anyone will see is a startled Pumpkaboo.]

Ah-- Kabocha no!

[She realizes the feed is on and looks. Well, startled. Caught. Uneasy.]

[Her hands immediately come to cover her cheeks, just under her eyes. It really only makes the slight differences to her more obvious. Her face, just under her eyes and down most of her cheeks, as well as her hands from about halfway between her wrist and elbows to her fingertips are smattered with pale, shimmering orange-and-pink scales. As she leans away from her Warp Band's feed, her fingernails turn slightly more opaquely white and elongate.]

Ahhh. Oh. Oh no. Well. I guess maybe I should probably say something since I guess some of you might be worried. Shoot.

[Right has been checking nearly every day. At first, he had thought that she had gone on some kind of trip, or some family emergency came up. Either of those made sense, and he simply decided to wait until she comes back.

Only...she hasn't, even though sweets tend to pop up every few days. Right was starting to wonder why she's not open for business. But more importantly, he began to grow truly worried about her. Is she okay? Did something really bad happen to her? Has she fallen on financial hardships?

So, when she first appears on the feed, he almost drops the huge box of supplies onto his own foot. Barely missing said foot by a couple of inches, Right immediately presses the feed close to his face, relieved to see her again.] Honoka! Oh, man, I'm so glad you're...okay...

[He then blinks a few times before staring at those scales...and her fingernails changing into...claws?] H-Honoka...what happened?!

[Lenna hasn't ever really formally met Honoka, but she has been to the enthusiastic girl's snack cart a few times, and she certainly doesn't remember her having shiny scales. Sensing that this may be the effects of a sudden evolution that the girl didn't really expect, and considering it looks a little like the Dragon type, she decides to answer the call. Her own Dragon type features are quite evident in the form of a blue spiked crest around her ears.]

Congratulations! It looks like your evolution may have surprised you a bit, though.

...

[Rei peers down at Honoka's feed. It had been a while since she'd seen her. And...huh...that's interesting. That's not...what she expected to see.]

Honoka-chan. Is this what I think it is?

[Its not like he was able to really get out of bed much to see she had closed shop, but the fact that she hasn't been around to see him is what struck him odd. Since he has nothing else to do BUT look at the warp band, he sees that.]

[It's a little amusing, honestly. That she would be so alarmed at the change.]

No shit, kiddo. It's not like you to try and hide away when something's bothering you.
