@HJBORNE00 〖 eyes widen 〗 i'd love to accompany you! just expect us to stop at every market because i want to buy everything that looks interesting. anyway, welcome to elementaire!

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

〖 waves at the reader 〗 any suggestions on what to buy at the night market?

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

@HDMBORNE04 〖 walks while scrolling through scrolle 〗 AH! sorry, sorry, i didn’t see you… 〖 looks up, forgetting the curse 〗 AAAAAH! no, no… sorry, whoever you are!

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

〖 looks at your face 〗AAAAAH! 〖 covers my eyes 〗 No, no, no… i need to go to my room—let me pass through! you're slimy, i don't want to get absorbed by that thing

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

〖 stops, avoiding eye contact 〗that’s suspicious…

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

〖 lowers head 〗i guess floating is more exciting than seeing HIM in all of your faces...

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

@EAHEADMASTER ME! 〖 Raises hand 〗

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

@ERCBORNE00 i'm not a hoarder, but i think i want to hoard those BERRY BOMBS! what flavor would you suggest i try? or should i just try all of them?

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

@KDHBORNE04 NO, YOU'RE NOT LATE—YOU'RE JUST IN TIME! thank you so much, jude! i really appreciate it (😁)

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

@ERCBORNE00 okay, you got me there. that sounds even more exciting! i’m looking forward to all the random stuff—and, of course, the tacos. but wait… what exactly are berry bombs?

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

@ERCBORNE00 Soft tacos... (🤩) hmm maybe if i buy some for myself, i’ll consider getting some for you too. what do you think?

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

@KDHBORNE04 elementaire definitely missed you too. hello, jude! 〖 waves 〗

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

@ERCBORNE00 〖 wide-eyed, shaking my hands frantically 〗 oh, i didn’t mean to shout… i just got carried away. but tacos sound good—i’ll definitely buy them tomorrow

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

@JCMBORNE98 it's my first time hearing about them, professor! i suppose i should immediately purchase and try them to hop on the trend

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

@ERCBORNE00 wait—whoa, that’s some massive indecisiveness… i don’t have enough storage for everything, ISOLDE!

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

@LJYBORNE98 gel... that’s odd. what is it for?

Now, Alaris' flute remained hidden, tucked away where he couldn’t see it. He had almost thrown it away more times than he could count… but somehow, he never could.

[༄ ALARIS .° @JSKBORNE02]

Giggling, he turned to the wind chime, blowing air toward it just to hear its loud, familiar sound.

But that was a long time ago.
