[Here's another newbie! Jessica turns on the recording, has that awkward moment of waiting for it to start.]

now? ok! Hello everyone! I'm Jessica. I'm new here and I've got a few questions.

[She holds up one finger.] Is killing kaiju the only way to make money around here?
[A second finger.] What sort of style clothes do you wear to a wedding in this town?
[A third finger.] Does anyone have experience setting up a shrine?

Thanks in advance! If I can help any of you out with healing or monster clean-up, count on me!

[She flashes the camera a smile, then has another moment of blinking and fumbling to disconnect the recording.]

[Clearly someone needs to corner the market of cafes for cats! Catnip tea and treats!]

YES MA'AM [Hope she realizes she's one of only three people he shows that level of respect to here, one being his future wife.] my symbols, huh? I think crowns and cherry blossoms would probably be mine. oh! and cats and capybaras! because they're totally cute!

[mace_pray_love]

[She doesn't yet, but she won't be surprised when she figures it out.]

i've never heard of a capybara, but i know the rest.

[intertwinedfates]

[It's the (slightly) scary women who get him to be respectable.]

oh, they're neat! they're giant rodents, but cute!

[Just for good measure, he sends her a picture!]

[mace_pray_love]

i usually don't like rodents, but these ones are actually really cute? i guess the bigger, the better!

[intertwinedfates]

right~? there's something about them being bigger that just makes them more appealing! helps that they're nothing like rats, too

[mace_pray_love]

yeah, they seem way friendlier

[Not that she can really tell that from one picture, but she's going off of vibes. Hopefully these creatures or their likeness are easy to obtain, for no particular reason.]

[intertwinedfates]

yup! they're pretty docile, which makes them ideal for cuddling

[Thankfully for her, a simple internet search should prove fruitful given their surge in popularity back in the 21st century.]

[mace_pray_love]

[Man, she just got persuaded out of a live capybara at the shrine by Shoto, and now you’re telling her they’re docile and cuddly?]

so do they live around here?

[intertwinedfates]

[Darn interfering goody two-shoes! Though perhaps having live animals isn't the wisest choice given their dangerous line of work for LILITH. And the tendency for folks to disappear back home at a moment's notice.]

I think they had some imported, though they're native to south america

[mace_pray_love]

[Hmm. 'Imported' sounds like 'probably not up for grabs'.]

i wanna see one sometime, so i'll keep my eyes out for 'em

[intertwinedfates]

[Or at least "dubiously sourced"...]

okay! I'll let you know if I find any, too!
