[There's a certain Eldarian soldier stalking angrily through the plaza. That in itself is nothing out of the ordinary; Arumat walks around with a scowl on his face a good 95% of the time. No, what's unusual is the fact that he's positively dripping with chocolate syrup. Yep, guess who got caught in a chocolate rain? The situation probably

[Myuria is standing, somewhat scandalized, in the doorway. For the love of all that's holy, Arumat, you did not just come home covered in shit.]

I hope you know I totally just choked on my tea laughing

[13th_captain]

[No worries, Myuria; after a few moments the scent of chocolate should be quite obvious indeed. Are you marginally less scandalized now?]

Then I am a success!

[tionysus]

[Yes, that is a much better smell than what it looks like, but as she is not on the alien rag, this is not entirely thrilling.]

What happened to you?

JEEZ MYURIA, ARUMAT IS NOT A DOG, HE DOES NOT ROLL IN THINGS

[13th_captain]

Your guess is as good as mine, unless you have some explanation as to why it suddenly began raining chocolate.

[... chocolate which is now dripping onto the floor. Sorry about that.]

BUT HE'S AN ATTACK ELDARIAN SO THAT'S CLOSE!

[tionysus]

[Every time she thinks this place is going to be less weird, it proves her wrong.]

I am not cleaning that up.

HE STILL DOESN'T ROLL IN THINGS

[13th_captain]

....

[And now he looks down to where he's dripping on the floor and makes an exasperated sound.]

I'll take care of that after I take a shower.

HE ROLLS IN THE BLOOD OF HIS ENEMIES, COME ON NOW.

[tionysus]

Just don't track it all over the house.

YES, BUT THAT DOESN'T COUNT. THAT'S TOTALLY A MASCULINE PRIDE THING.

[13th_captain]

[Might want to say that a little louder, Myuria, because he's heading off to the washing machine now to ditch his clothes there and tracking the chocolate with him as he goes.]

HE ALSO GETS ANGRY IF YOU RUB HIS BELLY.

[tionysus]

[Oh for heaven's sake! She is following and determined to bop him in the head.]

Are you even listening to me?

WHY MYURIA, I HAD NO IDEA.

[13th_captain]

[He actually does pause and turn around when she speaks to him, though the look on his face is one of slight exasperation.]

You'd rather I leave these clothes in the hall?

SHE KNOWS EVERYTHING.

[tionysus]

You're tracking it everywhere!

BUT DOES HE SQUEAK IF YOU POKE IT? THAT'S THE REAL QUESTION.

[13th_captain]

[Okay, fine, have it your way. With a sigh, he'll start peeling off his jacket and gloves so he can carry them the rest of the way to the washer.]

SOMEONE SHOULD FIND OUT.

[tionysus]

[Ha! That'll teach him. However, she's curious as to whether he's telling the truth, so she's just going to swipe some off of his chin with her finger and taste it.]

NOW'S YOUR CHANCE, MYURIA

[13th_captain]

[... what. Myuria, what are you doing, why are you touching... oh.]

Do you believe me now?

BUT CHOCOLATE.

[tionysus]

...They can't even make it rain good chocolate. [Sigh.]

... I could make a joke about licking it off him, you know.

[13th_captain]

You expected anything more from them?

[Ugh, it's all over his hair ornaments and ear covers too. Taking those off as well.]
