Bumping into Souji isn't such an improbable thing; the boy keeps on the move fairly regularly. He isn't fond of the idea of reprising the role of amateur investigator, but there just isn't a whole lot else to do in this dead, empty city, and a guy can only fold so many paper cranes before he starts to go a little buggy in the thinkpan.

So he's out wandering the city streets again, looking for things that might be interesting, or things that might prove to be clues - pieces of the perpetual puzzle of Meridian. When he does happen to cross paths with Terezi, he gives her a cursory glance but doesn't recognize her, at first.

Inspector Mistyhair isn't Terezi's favorite human, but she'd admit that he's got something at least moderately interesting about him. At the very least he's totally weirded out by her, and that's good enough for her.

Oblivious, though. From what she can smell of her reflection the only thing that's changed is her skin and her teeth, and the lack of the horns. She's still wearing her regular clothes, even! Ten points from Troll Hufflepuff for being an unperceptive hoofbeast ass.

"You are a very bad detective, Inspector!"

Souji's not the most observant guy; this is true. Even when he was actively investigating, it was mostly a team effort, with observations from his friends largely helping to fill in the blanks.

But there's only one person in Meridian who calls him "Inspector," so that's a huge clue-by-four bonking him over the head. And, now that he's come to a stop, he can see from the clothing it's very obviously Terezi, only ... out of her cosplay? The makeup and prosthetics (as he assumes the horns and pointy teeth are) had been such a large visual signifier for the troll girl before; someone who's not terribly observant could easily overlook a normal-looking human girl with sunglasses and mostly-nondescript clothing.

"It's my day off," he deadpans in response.

Lucrezia was quite happy to be human once again, though the time she spent as a unicorn was something quite .. magical, it was also very odd. Sometimes even a little uncomfortable.

She kept her hands together in a gentle hold and squeezed and rubbed her palms before she brought fingers to her face to touch. Oh yes, I'm still human.. She mused each time she not so subtly checked. She did miss her fingers, she could not hold a thing when in that unicorn form.

She turned a corner and wandered her eyes about to spy someone oddly familiar.

"Hello!"

It might have been the shirt, the usual black with Libra's sign drawn in bright teal. Or maybe the dragonheaded cane, or the cut of the choppy black hair, or the bright red glasses perched over eyes that had gone milky white. It was pretty much Terezi through and through, except for the pale skin and the absence of her bright bright horns.

But at least this one was a female human, and somebody Terezi knew. If she could have located the Jade human easily, she might have done that, although they'd never spoken. This girl seemed like an idiot, but she was talkative enough.

"Hey there," she said casually. "You smell like blueberries and cream again."
