It took a while before that one exploded in my hands. Maybe... if we don't touch them too long...
[ maybe it might work?! sariel does his best to avoid them regardless, if only because bumping his head against the floating sprites isn't his idea of a fun time. his height is already a hazard as it is, given how tall he is, so he won't add to that mess.
he can only hope that they're at least heading the right way. it seems like they are, considering the number of shops along the street. it's not too long until he finds something that looks like what they're going for. ]
Is this the shop...?
( ooc. can probably wrap up this thread up soon-ish so we can go ham on new event...! )
i'm happy to ~montage fabric shopping so ren can leave him to his glitterbug-catching devices
Hmm, you'd probably know more about it than me, but if it was something to do with Chroma, that tends to act pretty quickly...
[That's about the only reason he can think of for something here exploding upon physical contact, considering how easy it is to generate Chroma between compatible people. And the kinds of effects excess Chroma has had on things here in the past.
That's definitely a fabric shop they hit on before too long, though, and Ren halts in front of it with a bit of a flourishing gesture.]
That's it. For something like this, you probably want something cheap but sturdy...
[Ren's already starting to wander in as he says that, Deeply Considering their fabric options here.]
[ this is so overwhelming. sariel doesn't even get a chance to reply to either of ren's statements because the fabric store offerings are big enough distractions that they catch his full attention right away. his eyes can't decide what to fixate on: the bright fabric made out of sequins, the colourful bolts down the other side, the many buttons and different types of threads. ]
I see. I will make sure to find something cheap, but sturdy.
[ as if repeating it to himself will be of any help. the idea of "cheap" versus "expensive" is a concept he has no knowledge of, mostly thanks to his primal beast origins. that's just something they don't have to worry about - but thankfully there's ren to help him along the way.
it takes a while (longer than what's probably normal) to pick out something that will work for what he needs it to do. at least he remembers his manners. ]
[Thankfully, Ren is at least prepared to point out which things are a bit steep for what they're looking for, even if his concept of that is a little skewed at times considering he's used to being rich. He still knows what's a ridiculous price for a meter of fabric.
By the time they come out, Ren looks kind of like he's prone to wander off at the slightest provocation, but he also remembers his own manners, waving a hand at the apology.]
It's fine, it was pretty fun... [Also, now that he thinks about things that involve manners, he's missed something here.] Oh, what was your name? I'm Suzugamori Ren, but just Ren is fine.
as i continue to stay dead 😭 but wraps this thread up...!!!
maybe it's a good thing he'll never understand what it means to be rich, but thankfully he has someone to guide him into making reasonable purchases. (which is a good thing, considering how little chroma he has right now.) ]
My name is Sariel. I will make sure to remember your name.
[ he probably would have said the full name too, but somehow he's able to hold himself back. now then... it's back to sprite hunting. sometimes he forgets his own manners once he's focused on a task.
hopefully his new friend won't mind. he will apologize next time. ]

... Thank you for helping me.
[ he'll be fine once he's left alone. probably. ]
