Slut! (Clairé's Version)
Éclair:
Timestamp: Winter, after a certain Marketplace does the Mysterious Vanishing Thing.
Éclair eyed the earing.
It wasn’t, t’wasn’t Hers,
Of that, now the young Jorelite was certain.
But then, there remained the What Next!
Which, when it came to Options? While there remained a certain inkling, that one Brightening, truly, she was, t’was going to have to go meander through the Desert and say Hi-Hi to Her Daughter and of course Miss Cassie! But for now? Nuh.
When she knew all too well?
Was, t’was a time now best spent in Temperance,
Being pandered too and having Anna and Meli on hand. But here she was, t’was, and well, until Home? Honey Mead & Fire!
Sliucha:
Sliucha had been up in the north because of important reasons. They had to have been important, because northern Moonstone was freaking far when it came to the rest of the province. There was a giant bloody desert in the middle, for one. Not to mention the actual distance was actually pretty substantial, too. And then there'd been this whole illegal marketplace thing that had been operating way out here - very sketch. All in all Sliucha was reminded that they really needed to figure out something for the northern portions of the province that were, more or less, not under anybody's control at the moment. Make sure that they either stayed in line, or were sold off to be somebody else's problem.
That, though, was a matter for another time. For now, with the marketplace having up and vanished, Sliucha needed somewhere to stay! The trip back was quite non-trivial and preparations had to be made beforehand. To that end she'd wandered towards a nearby town and figured that a stay at the tavern might be nice and oh hey look!
"Éclair?" Well now there was somebody who she hadn't seen in a way! The Jorelite didn't look all that different, just... taller? Sliucha, in the meantime, had changed quite a bit, to the point where she felt like she actually needed to reintroduce herself, what with the bigger bust and the different color of tail and the fox ears and all that. "It's me, Sliucha! What're you doing way up here?"
Bounce bounce bounce, until she was standing beside the almost-dozing Éclair in her chair, grinning down at her. This was a weeeeeird place for a reunion.
Éclair:
Blink-Blink.
It was a rather effective means,
Of distracting Éclair from the Silver Earring & the Honey Mead,
Even as, well, Éclair took another cautious sip of the scrumptious syrup before hesitating,
T’was an Elf. The bouncy creature before her?
uh. Pretty sure, almost positive even, not-an-Elfy. If nothing else for the whole… well, that was one way of redistributing weight, even if the young woman had been a little hesitant about padding her Guise elsewhere,
Utterly confirmed! Definitely, positively,
T’was being made fun of! Aeternian!
“No you’re not.” Éclair huffed,
Scowling at the bouncy creature that,
Truly thought she was that daft as to forget what Miss StrAngE was! Hmph!
Sliucha:
...hey!
Sliucha puffed out her cheeks.
"Am!" She responded, sticking her lamian tongue out at Éclair. "Just got an upgrade is all!"
Okay, so maybe she should have expected there to be at least some degree of disbelief from the Jorelite. It had basically been forever since they had last met face to face and quite frankly a lot of things had happened in all that 'forever.' And she couldn't really think of anything that Éclair couldn't just say "well maybe the real one told you to say that!" Sooooo.
"Change is good, right?" Try to appeal to the Jorelite... change... chaos... thing?
Éclair:
“Not.” Éclair insisted,
All the more certain as well,
There was, t’was only two kinds of people,
That she knew had tongues like that!
And the very notion,
That someone might Abandon their God?!
No. Fix, suuuuure. Miss Tortue obviously needed a Hug & a Blanket. But Abandon? Nuh-uh! Refused to believe! Not Acceptable! Hmph! Trickster Demon!

Typical.
Oh well!
T’was Silver, t’was Shiny!
She’d done more for less,T’was Silver, t’was Shiny!

Imperia or Ruberium,
Made for a simple enough decision of neighboring Towns,
And soon enough? One young woman curled up in a Tavern in Ruberium,
Lounging in the Common Room before the fire nursing a mug of Honey Mead and trying terribly not to fall asleep as she basked in the warmth.

Perhaps,
T’was the Honey Mead that was,
T’was the Problem. Maybe. But who’d genuinely drug or poison Mead in good conscience?!

Still.
As strange as Miss StRAngE was?
This, well… through sleepy, heavy-lidden eyes?
Éclair rather thought, that someone or something was, t’was simply making sport of her.

Pointy ears? Yes,
Furry… uh… didn’t think that was an Elf thing, no. Nope!
Then there, well, while admittedly she did feel a desire for a drink and to get away from the strange person… it wasn’t, well, the same unpleasant Blegh that Miss StrAngE of Miss Torture & Pain had generated.

There was,
T’was a shaking of her head,
That within the depths of Éclair’s dark eyes, the Stars of Aeternia manifested,
Only to nod most seriously,T’was a shaking of her head,

Definitely not a Lamian!
Could tell! Wrong kind of Tail! Definitely!
Which meant more like Ezria, which, well… Fox-Person,
Snake-Tongue, Soooo not Elfy Physique, and an Aeternian.

Ah.
An Ezria Succubus Person!
Obviously.An Ezria Succubus Person!
This was a relief,
If only because, ‘cause,
It increased the odds that someone,
Hadn’t done the Unthinkable and messed with Her Honey Mead!

”All things Change.”
She agreed with a sip of Honey Mead,
“But you’re not Miss StRAngE. Miss StrAngE isn’t an Aeternian.”
Close but not quite!She agreed with a sip of Honey Mead,

Dark eyes widened,
“You’re not the Tricksy Fox Demon thing are you,
‘cause I’m soooo onto you! Do. Not. Want!
