22 [Video + Action (open)]

[Video]

[Feliks looks like he's in Union for the moment -- in a noble house, by the looks of the fancy furniture and his high-fashion outfit. He's got his boots off, on the floor next to the couch where he sits with a Growlithe curled up next to him, petting a tuft of fluffy fur.]

You guys seriously have zero chill, you know that? Like, I go out for a couple of weeks and come back and you got all mixed up with gods again?

Never a dull moment, I guess... But seriously, way to have all the excitement without me! Super rude, Union. You're gonna hurt my feelings or something, all hanging out without me and junk.

So? How badass was it?

[Action - Various places around the Business District + Teeter's]

[As usual when he's in town, Feliks has errands all over the shopping district. He spends the morning restocking on potions, food, and assorted adventuring supplies, then hits up some of the mid-range clothing shops for things to wear out in the field, things that aren't too fussy or too fragile.]

[In the afternoon, he steels his nerve and goes to his old favorite high-end shops. He gets fitted for a few new suits at a good tailor's, then ends up in one of the fancy dress shops, laughing and making a fuss, teasing the attendants and any other patrons nearby as he tries on one thing after another. All in all, he seems in great spirits, with the exception of one moment when he catches sight of himself in a mirror -- dressed up and laughing with the fire stone necklace glinting at his breast, and the weight of the last year comes crashing back all of a sudden. He ends up having to sit down for a moment to recover, like it's a damn fainting spell -- and of course, all the people working here know all the stupid noble gossip, so they know exactly what his problem is, but he still finds himself making excuses to anyone nearby.]


Sorry, my bad -- I think this corset's a little tight after all! Haven't been wearing them for a while, you know?

[In the evening, he ends up in Teeter's, because the classier places have never actually really been his scene. After a couple of drinks, any hints of shyness are well and truly gone from him.]

Hey, hey -- I'm bored. Wanna do something fun? Like, like a drinking contest. Or a dancing contest. Or a drinking and dancing contest!

I play a character with hardly any canon personality, I know this feel.

[ Lux may not be the most perceptive to things, but she could tell a somewhat tense situation when she saw one. While he seemed to be doing much better now than he was before, she knew the pain of losing a loved one to the wilds. It took everything to keep her from tearing herself from her normal life and work to search for him. ]

If you knew what some people had to go through beforehand, I'm not sure you would say the same time. I've been taking accounts on behalf of the Seekers. The gods really outdid themselves this time.

Not worse per se, but more personal. At least with our previous encounter, we weren't tied to the visions we saw.

Everyone who I've talked to, at least, although they've been a bit evasive about what they saw, understandably so.

[ Lux pauses, very visibly not sure what to say to that. After a moment, she finally smiles, genuinely, practically beaming at him, warm as the sun. ]

I know you would have.

And humble too, from the sounds of it.

[ It was obviously a joke, judging from her body language and the bit of a giggle at the end. ]
