Third Healing | [Video]

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Hey everyone!

[ It's still in the middle of the triple moon cycle, so now you'll get to see Konoka's... head in all of her deer person glory. Deer ears, small but notable horns, and from what's visible of her neck and shoulders, a little fur. There's some color to her cheeks,]

So I've got a couple of questions.

There were some really cool people I met down in Obscuria but I've only run into one of you since! You probably ran into me as 'Regina'. I wanted to see if you guys were still around!

And secondly, though it's not at all related to the first... how do you guys in Iris deal with being perpetually turned on? I mean, I'd love to ultimate moonlace but I think propositioning people out of the blue would be kinda creepy, and I'd rather be a little more safe, you know? Even if it turns out I'm into some of the riskier stuff. Are there like, toys anywhere I can buy to stave it off if I can't find a good partner?

[ She kinda wished she had one. There's no way she'd talk to Eva about this... right? ]

Comments

[trivialization]

You really don't think for a second before you answer questions like that, do you?

[ Part of her could appreciate that utter guilelessness... though she also might just call it 'brainlessness'... in situations like these. For practical reasons. But still, she wanted to protest, shouldn't a request like that be fraught with a little more tension? ]

Compared to the boy or that brat Asuna I never gave you a proper reason to fear me, did I? And that crazy old man never even warned you about me. But still, you'd be falling into my hands under the blood moon, you know?

[ Even now, though her tone was exasperated, there was a slightly feral leer at the end as she settled her chin into her hand. The wolflike ears and that talk of taking possession of Konoka might be a bit a familiar. ]

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Is that so?

[ Konoka's heard tales from Negi and Asuna about Eva's wickedness, but experiencing it was a different beast entirely. And yet...

Those ears looked familiar... ]

Wait. Where were you during the Obscuria incident?

[ Well, Eva could always give a dodgy answer, and yet for this one...! ]

[trivialization]

[ Uh oh. ]

Investigating?

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Did you disguise yourself any?

Because those ears of yours... I remember seeing them on someone I met down there!

[trivialization]

There are thousands of people in this city with ears like mine. How are you this suspicious.

[ Definitely not because Eva is obviously the type to come on to someone enough to make things weird and act all detached at the same time. ]

[im_gonna_heal_u]

You remind me of her the most! I haven't met any other wolf-eared people who spoke so much about eating me to be scary and then deciding that they'd rather be a big tease!

Is this what people at home think when they say that I tease them?

[trivialization]

'Eating you'? [ Uhhh did she say that? ]

And you're mad you got teased? Hoping I'll actually eat you?

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Uh, is that a confession that you were that lady I met?

And 'eat' is entirely in the figurative sense, just to be safe.

[trivialization]

How is that a confession? You just enjoyed someone stepping on you or whatever and you're asking me because you think I'm the type, right?

[ Seriously. She knows she needs to admit it. But it's hard for her to swallow her pride and confess when Konoka is accusing her entirely on instinctive recognition.

Also definitely not on the network. She sighs. ]

Well, never mind that. I'll meet you back at the apartment.

[im_gonna_heal_u]

[ Feeling somewhat rebuffed, Konoka stumbled in her next words. ]

W-well, maybe.

I guess I'll see you there.

[ She sighed as she shut off the link. She was no closer to finding that oddly attractive stranger than she was two weeks ago... ]
