[It's several hours later before Jun tracks down August. But when he does? He'll walk by and drop a box of bird shaped wagashi sweets on the table in front of August. ]

[drewthetower]

--and you are my new favorite person, holy shit. Are these edible or just for looks?

[whiteshroud]

Edible.

They're wagashi. Sweets made from a bean paste.

[drewthetower]

Fuck yeah--no, Julian, mine.

[The second Jun said they were edible, Julian goes for one and August holds the box to his chest, swatting at his bird with the other hand.]

You can't even eat bean paste! [Probably.] I'll get you crackers later.

[whiteshroud]

[Jun will give a little laugh]

Don't worry, I didn't forget him.

[He'll pull a small bag of birdseed out of his pocket and hold it out]

The shopkeeper said that this was good for any kind of bird, so I hope it'll be fine.

[drewthetower]

[The happiest caw as Julian goes for the seed.]

So long as birds can eat it, he'll eat it. Thanks, Jun.

[whiteshroud]

[He'll scratch his jaw, relieved to see the gifts be accepted]

No need for thanks. I did get you a little dragged into my problems with Lutha, so I thought I should try to make it up to you. Sorry about that.

[drewthetower]

Nah, you're fine. I just kinda ignored it because that is not my business and frankly I just. Don't have the energy to make it my business, y'know?

[whiteshroud]

Really?

Oh....

[...]

W-Well okay! Good! [Muttered] Wish I had known that before I spent the money...

[drewthetower]

[Oops.]

But...seriously, thanks. You didn't have to get the snacks, or tell him to shut up about my dramatics. I appreciate it.

[whiteshroud]

[It's fine! He's got plenty of money, so it's not a big deal

Jun never really knows how to handle thank you's so he glances off to the side an almost embarrassed manner, lifting his hand to cough into it a little.]

Yeah, well ... he's an ass. So.

[That's why!]

[drewthetower]

He is...but okay, racist?

[He said he had no energy to make it his problem but also: gossip.]

[whiteshroud]

....Mm.

[He isn't much of a gossip, but he can give broad strokes]

It's not my story to tell, but he harassed another member of our group because they're a race he considers "lesser".

[drewthetower]

Oh for fuck's sake.

[Deep, deep sigh.]

Kinda felt bad about getting him in the dick. Feeling less bad about that now.

[whiteshroud]

Yeah....

[Don't feel bad about that one either]

He, uh, tried to apologize after the meeting. Though most of it was yelling at me for bringing it up in the first place...

[drewthetower]

So only an apology because he needed to apologize and not because he was sorry?

[whiteshroud]

Who knows?

[He shrugs apathetically]

If he's actually serious about becoming a better person, that's his business. It's not like I particularly care what he thinks of me.

[drewthetower]

Eh, I just want him to be neutral enough not to try and kill me. That's all I ask for in life.

[whiteshroud]

[....?!]

Try to kill you...?

[Is that for real or is August being dramatic considering it's Lutha it's so hard to tell]

[drewthetower]

[Yeah after a second August realizes this.]

Not. Not literally.

[whiteshroud]

[he breathes out]

Oh thank God. I was worried.

[drewthetower]

Yeah...yeah.

[Anyway.]

God, I hope we get through this.

[whiteshroud]

[Ah...]

We will. We have to get back to Earth, after all.

[drewthetower]

Yeah. And I need to find a way to bring my aunts here, though hopefully once things are less, y'know.

[whiteshroud]

Haha, that's a nice idea. Inazuma's going to need time, but Liyue and Mondstadt are nice!

My friend Shiori would probably love to see this world too.
