[ > Talk

That is, because he's walking past the plaza and it isn't all that unusual to find other people here. But still, the curiosity catches his attention, and he pauses, hands tucked into his pockets and slouching.]

...Hello.

> Mistake Minato for someone else

[not_for_cooking]

[?! That voice?]

Cecil?

[Turning!! ...Oh, it's just a dude who's got the worst posture Onion Knight's seen since meeting Tidus :| NEVERMIND. He should've known; the inflection on the greeting was different. Gonna just... pretend he didn't mistake this stranger for someone else 8( ]

Can I help you?

> Be curious about this--

[lunateclock]

[...huh. He's never been mistook for someone else just by his voice.

Still.]

Sorry--it looked like you were looking for something. I was just wondering if everything was okay.

> Be disappointed Minato is not a sparkle!paladin

[not_for_cooking]

[Shaking his head]

No, everything is fine.

[A pause. Man he's not sure if he should ask this guy, but...]

Do you know if there's a good place to train in Vatheon? I can't let my skills get rusty!

[meddlefussyfang]

[ ==> Accessorize

Onion Knight unwittingly walked into the Cutie Boutique in his explorations, which was one of the local clothier shops. There's a number of stands all around with a variety of garments available, and through a back door a few half-finished dresses are being held together with an ungodly number of pins.

A young woman in the back room glances out when the door opens, and she smiles at him.]

Just a moment, and I'll be right out with you.

[not_for_cooking]

[ > Become Kanaya's dress up doll?]

[Everything here is really colourful * A* But he's hoping he can find something that isn't a dress.]

[... did that lady have fangs?]

[And. Dark skin and weird eyes and horns. She reminds him all too much of Xande but... if there's one thing Onion Knight's quickly learning, it's that Vatheon is full of all sorts of people that aren't nearly as monstrous as they look. He'll stand his ground and wait for the lady to finish.]

[meddlefussyfang]

[Not quite everything. There is, after all, a disappointing number of people who prefer to wear blacks and grays. And while she prefers to design dresses, there have been other designers through this shop in the past.]

[But yes there really are a lot of colorful flowing dresses.]

[And as she comes out from the back, yes, she does have fangs, and other signs of being another species. She also has a friendly smile appropriate for greeting customers into the store.]

I am sorry for the wait, I just needed to put a few things away---oh, wow!

[Kanaya stops and stares at him, tilting her head to the side to better examine his outfit, evidently forgetting about how she works in the store.]

[not_for_cooking]

[Those people have no sense of style!]

[Onion Knight has no idea what this lady's wowing about so he just... pretends he doesn't hear it.]

Not a problem. [Glancing over at the nearest lot of clothing] Do you have anything that isn't so... [Girly? For people taller than him? Uh. Let's try rewording that question.] Do you have anything that would fit me?

[...But why is she eyeing him like that?]

[envoyeuristic]

[There is a soft green glow coming from a hole in one of the trees in the park! It is accompanied by some not so soft snoring. Investigate?]

[not_for_cooking]

[ > INVESTIGATE!!]

[Onion Knight follows the sound of the snoring to the source (who'd sleep at this time?). And... found someone who's wearing a hat that looks very familiar to him now.]

[Should he wake this guy up to talk to him?]

[...He can wait. He has some manners, when he remembers. Onion Knight settles for sitting at the base of the tree, keeping an ear out for when the snoring would stop. It's a good time to take a break from his wandering, anyway.]

[ooc: Did you want this when Onion Knight was a poncle, or when he's big again? I'm cool with either option!]

[envoyeuristic]

((ooc: When he's big again! Otherwise, Issun wouldn't fit into that tree. xD))

[The snoozing continues on. Boy, can this guy ever sleep! This might go on forever if you don't do something soon, OK.]

[not_for_cooking]

[Onion Knight waits and waits, content to take a break. But even when he feels rested enough, it's quite clear whoever was sleeping in that tree didn't. Getting to his feet, he goes to take a closer look at the sleeping guy.]

Is this guy really going to sleep all day?

[If the little guy doesn't wake up, Onion Knight will just have to poke him awake with a finger until he does!]

[imaginedsoldier]

[It isn't his place-Cloud's just getting something from the store. Paint for his apartment thanks to rebuilding the wall and the colors not matching properly is more than likely.

> Talk?
> Leave?
> Pray he isn't cray cray?]

[not_for_cooking]

[> (S)talk and pray he isn't cray cray.]

[Onion Knight has to double check that he isn't seeing things when he spots Cloud. There's just no mistaking that (silly) spiky blonde hair. But is that actually Cloud? His spikes look different. And after his experience with meeting a Bartz who doesn't remember him... Onion Knight is a little... cautious about approaching Cloud.

Clearly the best option is to stalk observe Cloud(?) further. But Onion Knight isn't exactly a ninja right now, so his stealth? Not nearly as good as he thinks it is.]

[imaginedsoldier]

[He continues to look at the paint selections before finding one that matches his apartment walls. Why he chose to do this all himself (with the help of who did the damage in the first place) he didn't know aside for it giving him something to do in this city.

But don't think he didn't notice the feathers on that helm of yours, squirt.]

[> Momentarily ignore and obtain paint.]

[He stands there, waiting for the gallon-sized can while glancing over from the corner of his eye once or twice. You, my friend, fail to be a ninja. Soon enough though, the local returns with his paint.]

Thank you for your business, Cloud. But why are you...?

[He simply shrugs, walking out of the store.
_____

Continue (S)talking?
> Yes.
> No.]

[not_for_cooking]

[ > Yes ]

[Onion Knight follows Cloud(?) all the way to the store, but not inside. He strains his ears outside to try and hear the short business conversation, catching the tail end of it. So it is Cloud! Who else would have such a weird name? But wait, if that's the end of the conversation, wouldn't Cloud be exiting the store soon...?

Cue a mad scramble around the corner, out of immediate sight by the time Cloud exits the store.

Okay, so it is Cloud. How is he supposed to find out if Cloud remembers him? He can't just walk up to him and ask him; he'll feel really stupid if it turns out Cloud doesn't remember.

While Onion Knight frets over how best to approach an old friend comrade...

Confront your stalker?
> Call him out.
> Let the kid follow you home.]

[nippon_ga_yo]

*Japan is making rounds for the upcoming festival, picking up colorful papers so people can write their wishes on it. Then he notices him.. Armor and everything. He does a double-take.

Yep. That's Onion Knight.*

... Are you looking for something?

*CAN'T YOU SEE HIS EXCITEMENT?*

[not_for_cooking]

[What are you so excited about, stranger? ARE YOU HERE TO BATHE IN HIS AWESOME KNIGHTLINESS??

Shaking his head] I'm fine.

[But you seem to recognise Onion Knight for some reason. I mean, you look like you're about to keel over in giddiness here! Definitely weird!]

Did you want something from me?

[nippon_ga_yo]

*A long pause.

He hesitates before mustering enough courage to say this. This important request...!*

M-may I take a picture of you ...?

*And from nowhere a digital camera.*

[not_for_cooking]

[Tilting his head. He's seen a camera before thanks to some dude, but he didn't get the chance to actually use one before. NOW IS A GOOD TIME TO TRY IT OUT; sorry dude you look easy to take advantage of ! ]

Only if I can take pictures with your camera, too!
