[Euri isn't entirely sure what happened. One moment she was out in the forest, gathering some herbs for another batch of potions for her mother. She had managed to climb up one of the smaller giant mushrooms in other to gather some rare hanging dragon's breath, when everything suddenly changed. That mushroom changed into a metal street light, and all the trees had become huge, ugly brick buildings. From green to... greys and browns.

With a squeak of surprise she lets go of the street light, landing very unceremoniously onto the sidewalk and the contents of her basket ending up scattered all over. The only not completely terrible thing about her change in situations is that it's late evening and the street looks empty, so it seems no one saw any of that.

Several choice swears later Euri is pushing herself to her feet, glancing about thoroughly confused. What the fuck? She stays a deer in headlights for several minutes before she decides to do the first thing that comes to mind, and that is awkwardly moving to gather up her basket and its spilled contents.]

[LSKJDFKLJ WELL THEY'RE ALL... RATHER DISTRACTED NOW, scattering pointlessly because... one-by-one... they're picked off by... yes, Ran without his Glamour, just... huge and fast, all teeth and claws and this low, rasping snarl]

[But the moment he's pinned the last one and knocked them the fuck out, he's suddenly... Ran again??? And turning to look at her and smiling like all of that was quite normal!!]

You ought not to run off like that, my dear.

[occulthymns]

[Oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck, that was Ran?? He definitely isn't human.....

Her simply reply is a tiny squeak and nod of her head.]

[cachinnate]

[...eyebrow raise]

Calm down, darling, we need to go.

[occulthymns]

.......

[She nods again, very slowly reaching for him.]

[cachinnate]

[Awww baby )8 Reaches back, pulling her up against him and squeezing a little... Possessively...? Kinda yeah his odd little bird from another dimension )<]

Did they hurt you, my dear?

[occulthymns]

[She's latching onto him, shaking her head.]

No.... [But she's soooo glad he's here.]

... Thank you.

[cachinnate]

[Hm... well if she's latched onto him that makes it kinda awkward to move... which they need to do... before anyone finds them surrounded by bodies LKJSDKFJ So he hums sort of comfortingly and reaches down to pluck her into his arms. Gonna carry you brosis let's go *3*]

It was no trouble, my dear.

[occulthymns]

[She's going to keep clinging, though she is turning a rather dark shade of red. Thiiis is thoroughly embarrassing even if she is grateful he showed up.]

[cachinnate]

[Moving... fairly quickly, though he's also careful not to jostle her too much as he goes]

[He's just gonna go back to that apartment, feeling rather lucky when he gets there and the police haven't come around to investigate lsjdflj apparently he did a good job hiding the body yayyy]

[But yes so... shifting her in his arms so he can get the keys and get the door, slipping inside and finally letting her down again. Petting her face a little now that they have a moment... You poor thing )8]

[occulthymns]

[When her feet are finally on the ground again she's fidgeting and looking away.]

... Sorry for running off. I was upset and not - not thinking straight!

[cachinnate]

As long as you don't do it again, my dear. [Trying to catch her chin and get her to look at him]

I was very lucky to find you in time...~

[occulthymns]

[She is looking up at him, albeit reluctantly.]

Y... yeah. This city is really dangerous.

[cachinnate]

[Smiles a little and... thumbs her lip fffff before letting go of her again]

If you don't know where you're going, my dear... it can be.

[occulthymns]

[So awkward.... She's glancing away again, brushing some hair behind her ear.]

Right....

[cachinnate]

[...watches her a moment... and then stuffs his hands into his pockets, humming faintly]

So how would you like to proceed, darling.

[occulthymns]

... I don't know. I want to go home.

[cachinnate]

I know.... [Hmm... )8] This world isn't so bad, my dear. You could build a life here...

[occulthymns]

[She shakes her head abruptly.]

I don't - I don't know. I don't want to think about it.

[cachinnate]

As you please... [Head tilt...] What shall we do instead.

[occulthymns]

.....

[Hmmm, what does she want to do?]

I want something to drink.

[cachinnate]

[Glances at the kitchen for a second, and then down to her]

Would you like to stay in or go out, my dear?

[occulthymns]

Stay in. [Yeah there's no way she wants to go back out there again, even if it is still daytime.]

[cachinnate]

As you please...~ [Nudges her towards the kitchen where... there had been... all that alcohol... aljsdflkj which is what he's assuming she's talking about when she says she wants a drink ffff]

[occulthymns]

[That is exactly what she meant! Though she's more used to beer and wine, she doesn't really care about what's available right now. She's happily going to the kitchen, sitting down at the table and looking up at him expectantly.]

[cachinnate]

[..........oh is he supposed to get them for her. Blinks back alksdjf]

Wh... What would you like, dear.
