Characters: Guy Cecil (guyexplains) and Emperor Peony (imperiator)
Location: Grand Chokmah, d1 Auldrant
Time: A day after this
Summary: Guy has an audience with the Emperor to apologize for his behavior and request time off.
Warnings: Possible trolling.

A good night's sleep, a bath, a change of clothes, and breakfast when he finally felt calm enough to eat... Guy really felt like a new man. Maybe that was poor taste of words, but considering he'd been the one to undergo the changes to his own personality, he felt he was entitled the bad joke. As Mu had predicted, not everything was quite back to normal, little things kept surprising him as he remembered them. It'd taken him ten minutes of searching to find where he kept his own gloves, and then the memory had returned and he'd finished getting dressed and ready with little other incident or poor recollection. But it was details like that that threw him a little off balance for the rest of the morning. When he'd made his way to the palace he'd forgotten the name of the guard at the entrance who greeted him, awkwardly returned the hello and only remembered the man's name after he was in the next room.

Details, unimportant, but confusing all the same. And he did remember the rewritten memories. Hazily, but clear enough that they were confusing in their own way. He knew which set was his own past and which was the experiment--he was pretty sure. He tried not to think too hard on it, or he'd have to start second-guessing everything. He'd just have to have faith in Jade and by extension Mu.

Jade had promised to get him an audience with Peony--something Guy hadn't exactly needed help with, but he'd understood the intention there. So he arrived in the morning, refreshed and feeling a lot more sane and calm and generally himself. He didn't bother taking the stairs up to the audience hall, instead letting himself into Peony's rooms and nodding to the maid in the outer suite before knocking on the doors of the inner room, walking in after a moment without waiting for an invitation.

"Good morning." He said it cheerfully enough, as if nothing amiss had happened lately.
