[So you know, you're getting a video towards the end of Cordis cycle of... oh, it's a bunch of like, hand creams and body wash and shampoos and candles and stuff. There are a whole lot of them all arranged nicely on a counter? And there are a lot of different flavors... mostly floral, but some fruity and some woodsy and whatnot.

...the speaker is not onscreen, because why should he be. he is not the star of this show.]

I have found something wonderful, my friends. It's like Wan Shi Tong's library in the desert, except for good scents and hair care products. This-[he kind of pans over his haul]-is only a mere sampling of the offerings Moonlight Path and Body Works had for sale, and yet it's such a variety! It's not even that expensive! The stuff back home is expensive and there isn't quite as much variety! But it all smells fantastic. I just...

[CONTENTED SIGH.........]

I need more. I spent a lot of money, but I want to buy one of each product. This is such a fantastic vacation that I did not actually sign up for, but maybe it is a vacation I needed. This... is a good time I'm having here.

[oh no, this is stupid. at least he's having a good time and won't regret posting this whenever cordis is over. right? right.]

( Edgeworth responds in text because no-one needs to see him with cat ears, least of all someone he actually respects. )

Does this 'Moonlight Path and Body Works' have an address?

( He wants to make sure he goes to the right one... )

Tell me about it - every time I go up there I end up eating just about everything I can get my hands on. The other day I meant to pick up some more shirts and the next thing I knew I was elbow-deep in an all-you-can-eat buffet.

_{[And he'll only have himself to blame when he packs on a few pounds. Or he would if the Cordis metabolism didn't have him covered.]}

'bout how much did that pile set you back, anyway? If I'm gonna go there it's probably not a bad idea to have some extra money saved up!

Oh, don't worry. I have a paycheck coming up along with some tips. It's fine.

[cordis is so good for being in a service industry you have no idea.]

I mean it’s not that hard to make money here. All you have to do is shake a lot of hands and I, my friend, am very used to shaking hands. Maybe I should be more important and shake all the hands.

And kiss all the babies.

Win at politics and at money-making.

[Temple thinks that is a much better idea than Tarrlok’s previous one, and much more suited to him. And so, his Cordis giddiness takes over.]

To each their own I guess.

[There are far worse things to be interested in.]

They don't just have girly scents, do they?

Try not to spend it all in one place before considering your basic needs.

[Sorry, he's a party pooper.]

Ah, yes, I think it’s... no, I threw the receipt away. I’m not sure if there’s another location on PrismaPlace where there’s one between a nightclub and a Kaguya’s Secret, though.

Right? It’s so easy to get distracted and spend an inordinate amount of money on whatever you come across. Good thing it’s easy to get other people to pick up the tab!

[CORDIS CYCLE OWNS...]

...and I think it set me back a few hundred, but it’s fine. I am sure it’s fine.

...

[Tarrlok's ears also perk up...]

Now I want some cupcakes. I might head there tomorrow just so I can pick some up.

[like, a whole dozen. that sounds fine.]

In any case... hmm... I like the floral scents a bit better, but they've got mahogany teakwood hand soap. I didn't check to see if they went all in on that, though.

That sounds like a good idea. I may do that myself, though I'm not sure if I'm willing to wait until tomorrow.

[ If there's even any baked goods to be found anymore, given that it seems like every Cordis in the area also gives into sugary temptation very easily. ]

Hmm. That sounds nice. I'll have to check it out myself, then. Thank you.

Oh, you should be. But you too could smell good instead of regrettable, you know. Everyone could.

Hmm... well, they do have a scent called Noir that's got cardamom and smoky vanilla to it. It seems very... detective-y, you know?

Thank you for the information. I will let you know if I have any further difficulties finding it.

( He may not be able to afford... quite the range as the other man, but he'll be able to get something, and that will help his current frame of mind. )

Whoa! You had me at "Noir", pal! Now that word's as detective-y as they come!! I dunno what the other words mean, but now I know I gotta give it a try!!

[ Qrow looks briefly affronted, but recovers quickly. He leans in and squints, as if inspecting all the wares Tarrlok has stacked behind him. ]

Yeah, I see that. Think you've bought enough Moonlit Jasmine Breeze to cover all of Lunatia.

Yes. Yes, exactly. I will kiss so many babies on their foreheads for money. It will be very good.

LMAO.

[Becase textspeak is the only way Temple can possibly respond to such ridiculousness.]

[So congratulations, Tarrlok. You broke the Temple.]

Oh, no, they do have a men's section, too. I don't really discriminate when it comes to things like that because I tend to prefer the more floral things, but they've got woodsy smells too.

Oh, don't worry. It's fine. It's not too hard to make money here if you know what you're doing, after all!

You know, you're right... it's really tempting to just go out and make a bit of Chroma and then buy a bunch of cupcakes.

[...]

Hopefully there's enough supply to meet demand, of course.

If you end up getting really lost I'd be happy to meet up with you and see if I can lead you back there. PrismaPlace can be pretty... overwhelming, so just let me know.

[She can't smell through the screen but she's going to try and give it a sniff anyway.]

I love a good bubble bath! I really should be working on going home, though...

Yes, definitely. Are you familiar with this sort of thing?

[he should ask to be polite instead of assuming.]

If not, I do have to say that you should exercise moderation. There is such a thing as too much, even if it smells great.

I am set for a year. Maybe more. I wonder if I'll be able to take these back home and start a good and proper revolution instead of the awful kind!
