❅ clair

[flugels]

[ he hasn't found the knights yet. doesn't really know how to, and none of them were in stasis. lancelot doesn't once consider that the natha had failed to save them-- and it's not out of blind faith in these omnipotent beings that makes him believe that they're still alive somewhere. no, it's simply because he trusts vane, percival, and siegfried somehow made it. and he continues to revisit the stasis units with this optimism.

what gives him hope is that he finds king carl in the units, as well as several other familiar faces in the order. he doesn't let anything demoralize him because this is the best he can hope for, especially after the fall of the skydom. something is being done, as ridiculous as the situation is...

his confidence shows in his interactions. he meets a young woman named clair, who is perhaps the only person he's met thus far that he feels familiar with in terms of dress. have my half-assed fantasy explanation as to why he's drawn to her... okay... but upon speaking to her, he realizes that it won't be long until they're able to go planetside.

from his knowledge, however, he knows there is a pretty specific condition that has to be met in order to make the drop. ] Miss Clair— ah, you probably are already aware, but in order for me to teleport, I need the help of someone who has done it before.

[ he doesn't act particularly bashful about it, although it is awkward to ask someone he'd just met. ]

May I request for your assistance? I believe my comrades are below.

❅ chuuya

[flugels]

[ by the end of their fight, they're tired, hornty, and broken men.

but maybe they don't actually hate eachother. chuuya is smol enough for lancelot to carry, at least, and he brings him out to the beach... they collapse on the sand, but chuuya lands on the softness of lancelot's twin double beds... that is, his pecs. ]

Ah, are you all right?

love me, lynne :pepesad:

Hello, sir!

[ Incredible, JJ is actually capable of manners.

It probably helps that he never worked a day of retail back at home, so the entire experience is fairly novel and quaint. He's got the enthusiasm for it, and he's annoying enough that he wears down even the most difficult of customers.

He's currently helping out with a stand selling "luxurious swimwear items" with one other lady who seems to be keeping her distance, responding only when he asks her a question. But for the most part, he seems to be content to make things up as he goes along, taking the position that he's free to do what he wants until told to stop.

Lancelot isn't particularly close by when JJ spots him, but he's content to jog over with a friendly wave. ]

Hey! Do you want to try on some swimsuits? [ He leans right in as if he's sharing a secret. ] They make custom fitted ones too!

[ He has a tape around his neck, it's legit. ]
