[ the saniwa--and konnosuke, perched across his shoulders like a cat--appears to be in caihong at the moment, if the scenery behind him is any indication. he's also frowning faintly, gold eyes drifting away from the video, out toward the rest of the district. after a moment, though, he clears his throat and refocuses, dipping his chin politely in greeting. ]

I don't pretend to be an expert-- [ and konnosuke pipes up cheerfully with: ] Master's expertise is Time, actually. [ the saniwa's lips quirk, and he reaches up to gently close konnosuke's mouth between thumb and forefinger. ] Enough of that, now. [ he releases the fox and shifts. ] --Isn't it odd that a planet and culture that supposedly developed completely separately from Earth is so.. familiar in some ways? [ a gesture to indicate the area he's in. ] Even on Earth sometimes, differing cultures can seem alien to one another, and yet there are very recognizable things here. Maybe it's not just this place. After all, the humanoid shape seems to be pretty universal, given how many people are here from so many different worlds and realities. [ an uncertain head-tilt. ] Maybe it's some kind of.. evolutionary archetype. [ his nose wrinkles up at the bridge. ] I guess that doesn't make a lot of sense.

[ a beat, then he heaves a sigh. konnosuke gently prods his jaw with a paw, and the tired look vanishes, replaced with faint amusement instead. ]

Konnosuke would also like to respectfully request that all of you keep an eye out for delicious tofu dishes. Particularly as I can't cook, and I don't think that any of the swords here can, either.

[ the fox's tail swishes happily. ] I'll trade pets and cuddles for it! [ the comment gets a slightly scandalized sideways glance from the saniwa. ] --When did you become so shameless..?

[ he reaches and ends the video. ]

I wouldn't mind making delicious tofu dishes for such an adorable fox spirit!

[Konnosuke's cute charm is super effective!]

I can't believe you actually have one, though. I've only heard about them in the legends. He's so lovely with his colors~

[While Cordis moon hasn't quite hit yet to introduce Ren to his own impending fox shenanigans, his initial reaction on the video feed is clasping his hands together cutely at the sight of the talking fox. Fluffy animals are always good, as far as he's concerned.]

Oh, your fox is really cute...I think I've seen some restaurants selling tofu, but I can cook a little as well if you're having a really hard time.

[That said, after the moment of distraction, Ren circles back to the actual point of the post.] I was kind of thinking that too, though...they had stuff like coffee and fruit and chocolate at the festival, and I wasn't expecting to see that. Even the animals people are turning into are from Earth, right...?

[He's seen enough people around during Sanguis who've changed to tell that much.]

I-I can help c-cook somethings. B-Back home I...I did a lot of-of cooking f-for my m-master and-and his-his c-clients...

[ He was sort of forced to do it, but he also enjoyed it when he got the chance to. ]

I-I wonder if-if they have the s-same ingredients...I c-could make some m-mapo t-tofu...if you like s-spicy dishes?

[okay. first the serious things. then adorable fox robot.]

Honestly, it's kind of a mixed bag for me, since I'm more used to animals being kind of mixed together than they are here. Instead, it's... well, the humanoids that are mixed with animals.

Anyway, while I'm a little rusty at cooking, I've been visiting different restaurants just to try and catch some of the local flavor. If I find anywhere especially good, I'll be sure to let you know.
