[ hm. ]

Okay. Aren't you guys, like, hundreds of years old, though? Why does it matter if anyone else knows?

[perfectpower]

[Hm.]

It's...complicated. It doesn't really matter here, but it mattered a lot back home. I wouldn't care if people knew here, but he's still stuck in his feelings from back home.

[teenrebellion]

He does strike me as the kind of guy who gets bogged down in his thoughts.

[perfectpower]

He does. And there IS a valid reason for it back home. It's just not gonna come up here.

[Not until memshare week at least lol

But he's walking through the bazaar now, looking at all the offerings.]

It'd be nice if he loosened up a bit, but that's just how he is.

[teenrebellion]

[ kazuki listens in silence, soaking that in. curiosity is eating at him, but he doesn't expect bradley to say much more than that, so he'll let it drop. for now ]

He looked pretty happy to be on this planet, though. I found him trying to take a nap in the snow.

[perfectpower]

[Oh noooo that sounds so cute. He smiles a little.]

Not surprised. Even though he lives in Eastern Country now, he originally came from the North.

[teenrebellion]

Oh, so he's just used to it.

[perfectpower]

Yeah. It probably reminds him of home.

[teenrebellion]

Kind of a softie, isn't he.

...I get it, though. It kind of reminds me of my hometown, too.

[perfectpower]

...yeah, he is.

[It's one of Bradley's favorite things about Nero.]

Yeah? You from a snowy place?

[teenrebellion]

Not on this level, but Niigata gets a good amount of snow. Some parts of the prefecture have ski resorts and stuff, too.

[perfectpower]

Still, sounds fun. I'm more of a snow guy myself, it sound like the right place for me too.

[He pauses all of a sudden though. On one of the jewelry tables, there is a ring that he's looking at.]

[teenrebellion]

I'm more of a city person, honestly.

[ leans in to be nosy. ]

...Kind of fancy.

[perfectpower]

It is. But it's the right shade of blue.

[Light blue. Nero's blue.]

You don't see that a lot in sapphires.

[teenrebellion]

Sapphires are usually darker.

[ he can guess at the connection. ]

You sure that wouldn't be too much for him? With whatever baggage he's got.

[perfectpower]

[Ah. See right through him, don't you Kazuki? He laughs sheepishly.]

I'm not gonna give it to him today. But, y'know, it'd be nice to have on hand. For when he's ready.

[teenrebellion]

[ they were just talking about the guy, how could he miss it? ]

If he's really like that, though, you'll be waiting a while. Especially if things go the way we're expecting this week.

[perfectpower]

That's fine. Wizards live for thousands of years, I've got plenty of time to wait.

[teenrebellion]

[ hums thoughtfully. ]

That must be nice, huh. You get all the time in the world to do whatever.

[perfectpower]

In a way. But such a long life has its downsides too.

[teenrebellion]

I bet it does. I'm not sure I'd want it for myself, if I'm honest.

[perfectpower]

It's okay, it's not for everyone. But what IS for everyone is awesome jewelry. Let's see if we can find somethin' for you.
