I caused much pain and distress during the experiment. To all of those who were attacked, I sincerely apologize. I could barely control myself. In addition, I... I believe I took two lives... those of "Cirno" and "Ian Kolansky." ...Should you decide that punishment is necessary, I will

There's no reason to say sorry-I mean, it was a close call, sure, but I get hurt all the time, y'know! And I'm fine, so there's no need to apologize for something that was messing with your head...

[A violent scribble suddenly appears on the page. Looks like you took him by surprise, Ian.]

...I-Ian?! How... I mean, you were... you couldn't have survived that!

[He draws up one of his vials in his hand and tosses it up and down, grinning like a lying idiot. Finally, something he's good at lying with!]

Well, I thought I was definitely a goner, yeah! But that's why I'm always prepared-medicine seller of the best kind, ya know!

[He suddenly realizes it's a very good thing Kriz didn't, like, shoot his face off. Then it would be a little more complicated to explain away. V_V]

[That medicine? That's... that's amazing. Kriz just... stares for a while.]

...Incredible. [Getting sidetracked here, whoops.] A-anyway... please forgive me. I didn't mean to cause you that much harm.

[He just manages a little smile.]

Don't even sweat it. This place makes people do some weird things I guess, right? I mean, after that whole fiasco I turned into a puddle of water.

[cuttingedges]

Water? [You know... his general coloration and those eyes, plus loving water... Kriz is starting to form a vague theory about this man. It seems impossible, but then again, so is a powerful magical being sealed into cat form...]

I do want to make it up to you. Come over to my apartment and I'll give you the labels... perhaps some sugar cubes as well.

Re: [Locked]

[my_yoke_broke]

[Did someone say sugar?! 8D

And while some people would be cautious around someone who just tried to kill them-well, this is Ian.]

Sure, I can come right over! Where do ya' stay at?

[cuttingedges]

Building seven, floor seven, room 33. [He sketches out a quick map for Ian, just in case.]

[my_yoke_broke]

Got it! I'm on my way!!

[ZOOOOM

...expect a knock pretty soon. :|]

[cuttingedges]

[Ah, that's... probably Ian. The door opens; Kriz is there in casual clothes for once, and he's already got a box of sugar cubes in hand.]

Please, come right in.

[my_yoke_broke]

[And he's walking jollily in as though he were never speared through the guts by ice. Funny how well that medicine works! ...And like usual, Ian's got no real coat to speak of, despite the weather. WHO NEEDS 'EM.]

How goes it, Kriz!

[cuttingedges]

As well as it can, despite the circumstances. [No coat, hm? Odd. Kriz will just direct Ian to the coffee table, where there's a pitcher of water as well as a bottle of some kind of "sports drink." There's also what looks like a textbook about plants, among other reading material.]

[my_yoke_broke]

[He rubs the back of his head-same as usual.]

Aha, I guess that's true...

[Ah! A plant book! He sits down and picks it up, smiling.]

Oooh, reading into plant-life, huh? Luceti here has a ton of 'em!

[cuttingedges]

It does. [...Ian, he's staring at you. Not in any sort of cruel way, just a look that might say "I know what you are, perhaps."]

[my_yoke_broke]

[Ian's really good at totally disregarding looks, fortunately.]

Awww, yeah! I didn't know so many species were already written on! The people back home haven't been able to track down most of the types, since the forest is so huge...

[cuttingedges]

If you'd like to borrow it, feel free. Return it to the library here when you're done.

[Wild and crazy hunch GO.] What species might you be?
