It had been a long couple of days in this strange new place! Elminster had met people and creatures of all shapes, sizes, backgrounds, and personalities. He was no stranger to the surreal- after all, nothing widens one's perspectives more than stepping out of your own plane of existence and wandering others like one would travel to other countries- but this one had been exceptionally taxing! It was as if this was not just a place for different creatures to come together, but also people from different times, different realms of existence entirely... to say that it was bizarre would be putting things mildly. Yet as he walked the bustling streets en route back to the room that seemed to belong to him, he couldn't help but continue to study each person and thing that he walked past. He had taken for granted just how much he missed the hustle and bustle of crowded cities like Waterdeep and Baldur's Gate, the many performers looking to make a touch of gold, peddlers with their goods, children making merry with the most common household items. But things were different here! People were different. El couldn't help but stroke his long white beard in contemplation. In making a realm where all people are unique, he thought to himself, It is as if the mundanity of society is in its very lack of mundanity! Curiouser and curiouser...

His thoughts were temporarily paused as he came across someone else that caught his eye- someone that looked even more extraordinary than those he'd seen before! Resplendent gems and shards reflected on this creature like an approachable golem, yet it was a moving, living thing! El tried to approach, peering down with an inquisitive (if not slightly overbearing) look. "How peculiar..."

"Oh! You're so pretty!" Reena couldn't help but stare with intrigue. She's never quite seen a fellow mon like this before! "What's someone like you doing all the way out here?"

[nobully]

Huh, wait a minute.

Didn't he know this guy girl rock pokémon? Wang Yi stops to rub his eyes and squint. The next second he's slipping through the crowds and running to pick his ex-kidnapping victim up and spin her in a circle.

"Diancie!"

"When'd you get back? You're still as pink as last time, heh!"

@diamonddomain

[lightblume]

"I've been meaning to ask you, Diancie…" Tsuru trails off for a moment, setting her teacup in its saucer as she turns her attention to inspect the crystals lining the other's head until her eyes fall on the jewel at its center. "You are royalty, aren't you? So should I be addressing you as Lady Diancie?" Now is as good a time as any to set the standard, seeing as she's gone out of her way to invite the princess to her home.

"I'd hate to be impolite, seeing as you must be of higher status than I am. Not that it matters here, mind you, but I do respect titles at least." And she respected Diancie enough to do her the courtesy.

it is not that he means to stare, per se, but the little creature has piqued his interest. rather than immediately approach, Gale took it as a type of...challenge, to see if he might deduce what it was. there were no shortage of magical beings back home, that was for sure, and he considered his own brain a veritable treasure trove of information about them, but this one remained a mystery. perhaps it was in everyone's best interest that his staring had alerted them of his presence, forcing him to start a conversation.

"Hello," he waves a little, "Deepest apologies for the staring-- I see now that it must come across as rude, indeed. It's just that I've never seen someone quite like you before."

[drunkelreporter]

He'd seen some really weird things, most of which had been after Meryl had dragged them into following Vash the Stampede, but honestly this takes the cake. There's a tiny little frilly pink thing on a rock he's apparently sharing living space with and it talks. And floats. Did he mention it floats?

Roberto blinks, green gaze utterly blank, and reaches into his coat pocket for his flask. A significant portion of the contents is summarily dumped into the cup of coffee he'd been holding when he'd heard a voice and looked down.

He takes a drink.

"I'm definitely not drunk enough for this place."

"A-Ah... you're a pokemon...?" She at least seemed to be, though Mirai hadn't ever met one like her before. But then again, there were a lot of pokemon he wasn't familiar with these days. If his phone was working, he could've at least pulled out the pokedex, but it'd been replaced with some sort of toy. "O-Oh, I didn't mean to be rude. Are you from Paldea too, or...?"

He had no idea where this region was supposed to be, but it was pretty weird.

[dimittere]

he's been speaking so very freely as of late. tongue wagging without a care in the world, as if he was a child wet behind the ears. he's never been SHY about speaking his mind, but these words of late feel more like clumsy dregs than not. it was the start of a pattern, where he'd keep his mouth shut tight, and ONLY speak when at the end of his limits -- flowers falling off his form in scattered petals and clumps. ganondorf has always preferred the shadows, to dwell in the DARK of the night, but gods above, he's leaving trails in his wake. 

in the shadow of one of the island's many forests he stands, brushing away at the stickerbrush thorns CLINGING to his robe. but they stop suddenly at the sight of another. he knows not if the stranger has the same mentality or if she just finds enjoyment from the natural world. his curiosity IGNITES in a way that would be impossible otherwise, tongue tingling -- all but forcing his lips to part. how hard can it be to speak honestly and not lay your heart BARE? 

❝you're a pretty one - NEVER have i met a being made of diamonds before.❞ his own jewels glitter, reflecting the distant glow of strung up fairy lights. ❝i reckon you must be the subject of COVETOUS eyes.❞ he hisses, brushing away bramble from his figure. ❝as for me, i'm rather … PREOCCUPIED at the moment.❞

@diamonddomain​ ✧ ice to meet you

the closest they’d seen to sculptures had been snowmen, making the experience of observing the structures, and the process of crafting them into envisioned shapes, a fresh sight. rather than partake, it had been Lumine’s suggestion to remain audience — oftentimes she would be volunteered but considering her artistic ability when it came to drawing... maybe it was better she didn’t try to get the hang of crafting something much larger and breakable right off the bat.

Paimon hadn’t complained — she was indulging the heat of being carried in the Traverler’s arms, keeping the frigid winter chill at bay across at least much of her body. taking part would means occupying her friend and losing that blanket of bodily warmth.

✦look at all the different things that people can make out of ice. over there — a dragon. and that looks like a tavern bar. and that’s...um...✦ her sights had been set on a shape far differing from both statue and participant alike — one far more akin to a wild creature wandering in from beyond the city’s perimeter. —oh, it moved. ✦—wait, that’s not a sculpture.✦

Eiden remembered the tree in the corner of the orphanage that each of the kids would end up surrounding with the selfmade decorations as well as some worn one’s from previous years. Though stuffed Eiden remembered the mixed feelings of happy gathering but also the occasional sense of loneliness thinking of the one’s left and those that might go soon.... Though a bit bittersweet Eiden found himself thinking of it from a more happier angle than he used to.

He also remembered helping out some kids that wanted their decorations to the upper branches. This one looks a little different from human children, of course. Eiden doesn’t know what she is but he can’t help not getting involved as she is just standing there - and has been for a while now. 

“ Hey! You need help with something? “

everyone sure seems to be avoiding these new flowers like the plague. silver just can’t figure out why, though -- they’re so pretty! the hedgehog gently sweeps their hand across a patch of the pollen-heavy plants, taking it all in. ahh, nature.

suddenly, they notice a small creature hovering nearby... and look at all those diamonds!

“whoa, you’re one weird-looking chao,” (they don’t mean to call her ‘weird-looking’, but that level of bluntness is hardly out of the ordinary, so they pay it no mind... yet).

silver crouches down to take a better look at her, “is that... a chaos emerald inside of you? i wonder what’d happen if i took it -- that wouldn’t hurt you, right? it might get me home, though, so...” they freeze. huh, that’s weird. it’s not like they would've kept any of that to themself, but they would’ve tried to make it sound a little less threatening, at the very least. “sorry! not that i’d just steal it from you! unless i had to, of course,” oof, their mouth is on a roll today. can she even understand what they’re saying? they hope not.

❝ Now, are you sure you aren't related to someone named Paimon? No long lost relative or something like that? ❞ spoken in jest, the similarities, in some degree, were an entertaining enough thought. between the size, ability to speak with humans, and even floating, it was interesting enough. to which it seemed this one had exhausted the limitation, now perched atop his shoulder as he strolls along, not exactly bothered in thanks to klee. ❝ Just playing around, of course. Teyvat has creatures similar, but you aren't quite alike in that regard. ❞

@diamonddomain​:

There’s like, a rock floating in a field of flowers. Not just the stupid purple ones, but bits of other kinds too. Also the rock is pink. Kinda. Like quartz growing out of a geode, he guesses? 

‘Sao Ling, you’re seeing this too, aren’t you?’

‘They didn’t dose me with hallucinogenics when I came here, right?’ 

【Host’s physical readings are normal.】 The round black cat beside him answered after a moment of processing.  【As for what I see, external analysis classifies it as mostly mineral in nature.】

‘So what, I’m made of minerals too. Question is what do we do about it?’

【Host can approach it for closer investigation. It looks non-hostile.】

‘I am not touching some weird floating pop rock in the middle of nowhere.’ The next second he froze in place, because the floating rock island thing had turned around.

Oh god.

Were those eyes?

@diamonddomain​ // winterfes starter !

A winter fair had been set up and honestly? It was the perfect place to get some shopping done. 

While Aki definitely didn’t need to worry about gifts as much as he did back home - given the distinct lack of the two teenagers under his care - it was still fun to look around. And on the off chance one of them did show up, he could be prepared with a present. Even if it wound up being a little late.

Honestly he just kind of wanted the distraction from worrying about them. And hot chocolate. Couldn’t forget the hot chocolate. 

...though maybe after he finished stuffing his face with some of the treats from the food stalls set up around the fair as well. He couldn’t help wanting to try all of this stuff! It had been a really long time since he was able to do anything for the holidays.

He was fine just being on his own for it, but it didn’t take long for his interest to be piqued by a person(?) looking over some of the stands. Though person didn’t really seem to fit it given the almost gem-like pink object on their head - he didn’t want to be rude and assume otherwise right away...especially since he was going right up to them to talk, instead of letting his curiosity go by unsated. 

“Hey! You having trouble deciding what to get...?”

[themissary]

Themis is no stranger to bizarre concepts and various creations. Whether it be flying fish, barking lizards, or birds that could breathe underwater, he'd been subject to witnessing ( and sometimes scrutinizing ) the designs of other people. As far as he was aware, however, people of this star weren't capable of creating creatures from the confines of their minds. They could not will to life objects and animals like the people of Etheirys. So it stood to reason that the rock formation turned creature that levitated a distance from him admiring a patch of flowers was not the creation of someone, but rather a being possessed of it's own intelligence and will.

Fascinating, is the only thing that comes to mind as he proceeds to its side and plucks one of the flowers that he assumes was being admired and turns to offer it to her. "They're free to take, I hear. If you had a mind to gather a few, I'd say now would be the best time before they're completely buried in snow for the coming months." But enough chitchat and beating around the bush, Themis begins with his true query. "…Forgive me if this is impolite, but what species do you belong to?"

"So, I've been meanin' to ask..."

The question came in-between some casual humming as Frye sat on the warm and sandy shores of the beach, basking in the light of the sun. She was much closer to the lush greenery of the jungle than she was to the actual water, as she didn't want to get too close to the sea if she could at all avoid it, but she didn't want to lose sight of it completely either. It was so pretty! The kind of sight that easily made her want to sing and dance her hearts out right then and there.

Right now though, she had a burning question in mind for the rock princess. One that had been in the back of the eel tamer's mind practically ever since the first time that she had run into her.

"Do you still gotta eat? 'Cause you're alive and all, so at first I figured you do, but you're also... y'know, rocks. And rocks don't usually eat! Not even the shiny, pretty crystal ones like you!"
