Eleventh Truth

[daughterofknox]

[Today, you can find Dlanor in the general store. Ever the hard worker, she's reading over a large folder of notes while she walks, but it's clear she's intent on getting to a certain aisle. Once she gets there, she snaps the folder shut and surveys the types of hard candy before her

[Erika totally didn't see Dlanor and decide to stalk her all the way to the store and to the candle aisle!!!

Okay, yes she did. IT'S NOT WEIRD shut up.]

[daughterofknox]

[She spends a few minutes deliberating before picking up a few bags of generic fruit-flavored thingums and turns around, spotting Erika. She's a little surprised at seeing her.]

...Greetings, Lady Erika.

[sue_of_truth]

[Erika composes herself and struts over, acting as if she hadn't done anything unusual at all.]

Hello, Dlanor.

[daughterofknox]

I did not expect to see you here.

[A pause. There must have been a reason why Erika was following her, so...]

Is there any way in which I can assist you?

[allowmetospeak]

[Oh hey, look who else is in the store right now! Cornelia had been following Erika's orders to "get used to the area". She's already been to all the major, important locations, so for the past few days she's been scouting out everywhere else, just to get used to the place.

So when she notices Dlanor heading down the aisles, she approaches! She doesn't salute, not wanting to attract the attention of any of the drones, but she does stand straight at attention.]

Allow me to speak. Miss Dlanor, do you require any assistance?

[daughterofknox]

Ah, Cornelia. No, I am only here to buy this.

[She holds up a few small bags of candy.]

[allowmetospeak]

[C-Curiosity is starting to get the better of her CAN SHE REALLY BE EVEN A TINY BIT CASUAL WITH A SUPERIOR...]

... Please, allow me to speak. Is the candy they produce here as good as what is made back home?

[daughterofknox]

It is not. Still, it is an acceptable substitute.

*Alice seems to be buying normal groceries when she sees Dlanor in the shopping isle. She's also free to notice that Alice is limping a bit.*

... Do you enjoy this kind of food, Dlanor?

[daughterofknox]

Ah...yes. I do indulge in sweet foods from time to time.

[She does notice the limp, and she frowns.]

...Are you hurt?

[hangedhourai]

I am not fond of these types of things... I prefer bitter foods.

... Yes but.. It will be fine.

[daughterofknox]

...Do you require any assistance?

[Food, food...this is Splash's first time in a grocery store and she has no idea where to begin. She finds herself wandering down the aisles of prepackaged food, drawn to the candy aisle by the bright packaging. Picking up a box at random, she freezes. Then, spotting Dlanor, who clearly knew what she was doing, Splash decided it couldn't hurt to ask:]

Excuse me...!

[daughterofknox]

[Dlanor looks up.]

Yes?

[rescue_siren]

[She holds out the box in front of her.]

These can't be...they aren't...

What I mean to say is...these aren't made of real fish, are they?

[daughterofknox]

No, these are only shaped to look like fish. If you are looking for real fish, you can find it next to the meat.

[Hey, he's already there! And climbing the shelves!]

APOLOGIES FOR LATE

[daughterofknox]

...Mister Sakutaro? What are you doing?

no worries <3

[glompedbystakes]

[stops, and looks at her.]

Dlanor!

[Waves... which causes him to lose his grip, and he falls splat onto the floor X_X]

[daughterofknox]

[Running over to help him up.]

Mister Sakutaro!
