(no subject)

Characters: Eiji, OTA
Date: Feb 22 - 24
Location: Around Aifaran and the Dreaming Bridge
Situation: Friendship knots, sensory loss, and talents
Warnings/Rating: None yet


1 - Arts 5

Eiji's spent quite a bit of time learning the different knots from the Tifaut's booths around the city, and he's gotten good enough that a couple of people around have commissioned him to make some--partly because it's more personal than buying them at a stall, and partly because he can't bring himself to charge very much other than what someone wants to donate.

Come to pick one up? Come to help and make some money yourself? Or just want to talk? He's mostly at the beach.


2 - Vision

It happens as he walks back to the Dreaming Bridge--his eyes suddenly turn purple, and as he looks ahead at the city, he can barely make it out. Everything has lost its detail, like he's getting poor TV reception, and the colors he's picking up are distorted.

"Not again," he whispers, stumbling backwards in fear. There's no way he can find his way back on his own.


3 - Talent: Restoration

The moments of vision loss have gone away for now, but nothing's changed about Eiji's sense of taste being gone. Still, he tries to help out in the Dreaming Bridge's kitchen, and even if he can't taste anything that's being made, he can at least sort out the vegetables that are starting to go bad.

He sniffs some kind of milk-like liquid and makes a face.

"Okay, I think that's starting to go."

Except...no, it's not, all of a sudden. He feels some kind of weird sensation, and he thinks he's about to have another bout of sensory loss, but...no. The milk, or whatever it is, suddenly seems to smell right.

He looks over to someone else there.

"Uh, can you smell this for me? I thought it might be going bad, but now I'm not sure."

Padparadscha waves a hand. "I was heading this way anyway. With so much different about this world, it's good to spend a little of the day away reading, huh?"

Which they usually do in the Breakwater common room, so it requires coming back this way whenever they decide it's a good time for it.

"At least there's information about the people who've been here before us, huh? A lot to catch up on, but it's easier to find than it could be."

But it seems like he'll probably need time to recover, so Padparadscha waves towards the door of the Dreaming Bridge. "Well, you should probably get back to your room then, anyway."

"It's no problem," Padparadscha says, over their shoulder as they head towards the door themselves. "Just try not to make a habit of it, huh?"

"Well, that's fine then, isn't it?" Padparadscha waves as they head inside. "I'm sure I'll see you again, little one."
