[saturations]

yea! i'm here and ready 2 go

[and they'll be waiting! wow, they have an actual shape! they're medium height, sort of gangly. still pixel-y and bright yellow, but hey. they're also wearing clothes.]

[disestablishment]

Ah, it seems you’ve changed a bit since last I’ve visited.

[ Now that Aymeric is here to pick them up, they can head out! ]

Fashionable as always.

[saturations]

Thanks! [they do a little like... winky idol pose type thing. aymeric gets the sense that perhaps bass has been spending too much time with the swords.]

I feel a little better, I think. I haven't changed shape a lot the past two days.

[disestablishment]

[ me: the swords are a plague
aymeric: aw ]

Full glad am I to hear that, Lord Bass. I had wanted to ask what's the catalyst to you and yours shifting. Lord Shale tends to stay a statue, but sometimes they have some changes.

[ Party city door... Here they are. ]

[saturations]

[the sword illness is spreading...]

Oh - really? I haven't seen them this week yet! [they seem glad, though.] ... I dunno, though, I guess it was after I got my earring back? I haven't really shifted much since then. I'm not really questioning it. It's nice to not be a dog when I need something.

[tadaaa... party city. they just reach out and grab aymeric's hand, because it's touch week. letsa go.]

[disestablishment]

[ me like where is this thread and crying that I didn’t respond ]

Your earring? [ Well? He’s being handled by the hand. Instead of looking at all the Party City goodies, he keeps watching them. ] Was it missing all this time? If it was of heavy importance, then I’d daresay it should have taken priority as a task, Lord Bass.

[ icly I have to do this ]

[saturations]

[you neglect bass....... neglect bass like the football, 1000 years jail]

To be fair, I didn't realize it was missing. [they glance up at him. why are you so tall.] I only realized when I got it back. Which... I guess opens some scary roads.

[disestablishment]

… Is there aught else that returned to you when you received your earring?

[ Hewwo?? He doesn’t want to unsettle them so much, so he does take like

A fake mustache he finds as they pass through aisles? And puts it on. ]

[saturations]

[aymeric]

No, just... the fact that I might not exactly be who I thought I was.

[they do snort at the mustache though, and:] What.

[disestablishment]

[ first: ]

Do you not fancy my newly acquired facial hair?

[saturations]

[laughing:] It's definitely a look.

[they're not saying what kind of look though]

[disestablishment]

[ He laughs, too. ]

If there was a matching beard, I would resemble my late father.

[ But now that the laughs are done. ]

Lord Bass, unearthing the unknown can be both thrilling and terrifying... Wherever we land, pray remember you are not alone.

[saturations]

[they swing aymeric's hand a little, still holding it.]

... Yeah, I know. [they peer up at him.] A lot of people here are nice enough to tell me that. I'll be okay if I am alone, I have been before, but... I'm glad to hear it.

[disestablishment]

'Tis good to keep in mind.

[ damn... saying sad things while swinging their hands. Aymeric frowns, but he understands. ]

Have you perused the costumes? [ He leads them! ] I have heard there are some that pay homage to champions.

[saturations]

[they will not

but they follow along happily enough.]

I've been in here a lot looking for stuff to dress up in. [...] Champions? Like what?

[disestablishment]

[ I see.

Anyway. Aymeric will stop in front of this one. This is the one. A champion. ]

[saturations]

[


well]

That's a dude from Space Jam.

[disestablishment]

The Champion of Space Jam?

[ yeah? (endwalker spoilers for last trial). ]

[saturations]

[STOP I HATE HOW GOOD THIS SOUNDS get out of my school]

... Do you think Space Jam is a real historical event, Mr. Meric?

[disestablishment]

[         ...         ]

... Is it?

[saturations]

[they are trying

so hard not to laugh.]

No? I... I don't think it is. [aw jeeze what if they've forgotten space jam was actually party of history]

[disestablishment]

[ It is good that they're laughing even if Aymeric legitimately doesn't know shit about Space Jam. He doesn't even know there's cartoon rabbits in it. ]

Those would be your words if you were to meet one from that star, Lord Bass? Have care...

[saturations]

I guess that's true! You never know, I guess it could be real somewhere. I'll be nice.

[disestablishment]

Good.

[ A good yellow. ]

Do tell me, Lord Bass, would this person be considered a champion in Space Jam?

[ as in, the movie. in the movie. ]

[saturations]

[aymeric is lucky that bass has like, one braincell.]

I... guess? I think the toons are more the champions in Space Jam.
