the wrath of mint

Isola apped, Moon Carver from Genshin Impact

[mintcarver]

One is so weirded out.

Moon Carver/ Genshin Impact

One who carves the moon, etc etc. Otherwise in human form known as Houzhang and that 2 old geezers by a certain bird adeptus. his cultivation level is high but not that high. Please spare a thought for the mint plants that are scattered in barren lands.

not as lonely as the other adeptus, actually partaking in a active travel life style compared to others.

You will be staying in HOUSE 110.

You will retain your ability to fly for up to 1 hour a day.

𖦹 ... That is true. Not many challengers are able to defeat me the first time around. I was only hoping for some pleasant company... It has been so long since I have played. 𖦹

As he waits for the man to return with his seconds, he continues to work through his own plate. The sizable stack of sausage and bacon on top of the pancakes is only half-devoured.

When he returns, he blinks. 𖦹 Blueberry yogurt... I do not think I've had it before. 𖦹 Curious, he leans in. 𖦹 How is it? Can you taste the blueberries? 𖦹

[mintcarver]

He digs in with abandon. Never mind he is suppose to look like an average middle age human right now.

"..."

Chew.

...

Swallow.

...

"Tis very sweet. Perhaps ripe." He forks a few berries into the other plate.

"Here, try it. and let your taste buds be the judge of it."

[scrybeast]

𖦹 The supreme cuisine machine, 𖦹 he murmurs. What a pleasant rhyme, he thinks to himself. 𖦹 I've no experience in cooking with contraptions. Perhaps you should ask the chef for advice. 𖦹

𖦹 Though... I do not let my inexperience stop me from preparing meals. If you defeat me in a game of cards, you may be the recipient of such a meal. 𖦹

[mintcarver]

"Perhaps in another time. One cannot help but notice that it is likely you will defeat me since I do not have know what games you will suggest."

Moon Carver is going back for 2nds in the buffet, bringing back yogurt and other things that looks like pudding.

"This is...blueberry yogurt!"

[scrybeast]

This man's way of speaking isn't quite like the other humans here, though neither is Leshy's, both in method and in mannerism.

𖦹 I concur. The possibilities of this world are seemingly endless. What fortune that we find ourselves here instead of the unending void... 𖦹

𖦹 But... I must not let it go to my head, nor my stomach, as you suggest. For one who forgets the thrill of the hunt becomes easy prey indeed... and no morsel is as tempting as that which is easiest to obtain. 𖦹

[mintcarver]

"Ah but there is bliss in learning to cook! It is not as easy as one would think. Though this one could subside on plants and minerals alone. The moonlight itself is not enough to sate and so one must cultivate themselves to learn how to cook human food."

"One has tried to cook, but i can say without a certain machine called the supreme cuisine machine. One cannot handle it."

[scrybeast]

Though Leshy would be fine subsisting on spoils from the forest and mushrooms from his own beard, the smell of freshly made food is rather tempting, which leads the Scrybe to the breakfast buffet.

Taking a cue from the other man, he helps himself to some of the pancakes. Along with syrup and butter, he piles on more meat than what can be considered healthy, and he eats from his plate with little decorum, using his hands instead of a fork.

𖦹 I'll give the cook credit, 𖦹 Leshy says between bites. 𖦹 They are quite ingenious when it comes to food. 𖦹

𖦹 I have never seen such a meal myself... or worked up quite an appetite. 𖦹 He slurps down a strip of bacon and licks his leafy chops, satisfied with the serving.

[mintcarver]

"Indeed, humans have truly come a long way with cuisine. Of course one cannot say that without insulting someone, but it is a fine way to test everything. A shame that one cannot simply survive on favorite food alone. For there is a cuisine world out there that one cannot imagine at all!"

"I see one has quite the appetite, surely you are getting your money worth...is the saying. indeed, were it not for self discipline one would have gorged on this for hours."

[mintcarver]

@scrybeast

"What a ingenious way of cooking!"

Moon Carver is kind of a glutton, trying all the snacks his interest had caught. This utterly sweet pancake for a example was delicious, drenched in something called maple syrup and made into a small sandwhich of butter.

small starter call, cap at four

[kujoutengu]

"Not necessarily; I know of a few youkai who have lived for many years." Namely the current head priestess of the Grand Narukami Shrine, and one of the tanuki who was sealed in stone. "Of course I know very little about my own kin, or if any are still around."

[mintcarver]

"A shame. Much a shame, to be so isolated from one own kind is... this one can relate as well. There were many of adeptus before, but now with the years gone by we ca be counted with two hands alone."

"And even then... now with the situation as it is. Even I am the only adeptus left. Forgive my manners, for I am known as Moon Carver. An adeptus of Liyue. For I see no reason to hide one self anymore in this city. "

[dazzlxd]

"Hmm... there might be a mountain either here or in one of the Branches that could work." Vivianne says before she blinks. "Yes, this city is very bustling and full, but that's part of the charm for some."

Gwen, the Eevee, brushes up against the man's legs once before turning back to walk and brush against Vivianne's.

"I don't know much, but I do know someone that may know more." Vivi replies with a smile. "But forgive my manners. My name is Vivianne Vaughan. You can call me Vivi for short, if you'd like, monsieur."

[mintcarver]

What a curious creature, but no one seems to be making a show of it. So he keeps quiet about his curiosity for now. After all, being quiet is something that adeptus in hiding should learn, unless your name is Shenhe.

"...Perhaps I would keep it in mind, but one would remain a distance. So Vivianne for now."

Distance is important for now, after all he knows not true intentions.

"Mint is very easy to plant, its just a matter of finding the right soil. But upkeep is easy as well."

"But this person, I would like to know more."

[dazzlxd]

"And strangers in this world tend to help each other," Vivianne says with a shake of her head. "Not many do, but I prefer to help. This world is new and strange and full of many different people from different places."

"Your friend might show up, but in the mean time... is there anything I can do to help you?" She says this with a tilt of her head. "Please?"

[mintcarver]

"..."

"Find a mountain, and climb it to plan mint in abundance. one own companions would know that I existed here. it seems this city is rather... busy with much about everything."

In other words it means nothing could be done.

"Does one know about gardening?"

[kujoutengu]

"So you had visited Inazuma before the decrees were enacted," she said, pausing for a moment as the information sunk in.

"You need not worry; I am not going to pass judgement or assume anyone's age. I am simply...curious as to where you saw my kin, and if you saw them up close." She knew of no other tengu apart from herself, and a part of her yearned to know where her kin could be found.

[mintcarver]

"Indeed, many years ago I have visited inazuma where yokai were once more plentiful."

which really gave away that he's really mature age. after all that was close to almost five hundred years ago until the humans got too much and the blood of many yokai were diluted, that they might not have existed.

"I had many friends, but as someone as long live as I, they are...perhaps likely gone. The current nature of the yokai within inazuma is not something I know of."

[dazzlxd]

Vivianne approaches the young man, a bit of worry on her face. However, she hides it behind a gentle smile as she speaks.

“I’m terribly sorry, I don’t know who this Mountain Shaper is that you are looking for,” the girl says, “but you do seem lost, yes? Maybe I can help you out?”

The fluffy fox-cat at her feet stares up at the man, its eyes fixed on the mint pot in his arms.

[mintcarver]

To be seen by mortals in such a state...

"Ah, forget one words. If you could, it seems my friend is....simply not here." A moment of pause, fresh grief on his throat, sticking into the back of his neck like a fishbone.

"One appreciates the help, but this is not something someone as ...young as you should worry about. After all, we are but strangers." holds the mint pot tighter.

[kujoutengu]

"You know of the Tengu?" While many knew and heard of Inazuma, not many outside of it were familiar with the supernatural beings that called the nation home. At least, not many humans she had talked to outside of her nation, that is.

"Kujou Sara; a pleasure to meet you, as well," she said, giving him a bow.

"If I may ask; have you met other tengu before?"

[mintcarver]

"Indeed, when the nations of Inazuma were open, one has seen the nature of the tengu over... ... let us just say that one is very long lived enough to know of Inazuma centuries ago. Though that does not imply one is of ....mature age."

[ferociousthunder]

"Well you ain't wrong even if none of this looks like I've ever seen back at home. Like someone was trying to make a replica of it or somethin'."

Which definitely made it weirder. At this rate she would've sworn she found anything that looked familiar...

"Tamamo Cross. Horse girl with I guess a little bit of renown back home. Nice to meet ya'."

[mintcarver]

"Horse girl...."

Well, he suppose some beast people do live out there, but he wouldn't haven't notice without prompting , after all he is a deer man....no, just a deer that knew enough to become a adeptus."

"Well met, Might one inquire on the nature of your renown then?"

[ferociousthunder]

"I mean ya' sounds real calm 'bout all of it." For better or for worse given how little all of them knew still. Not like school curriculum ever had a "transported to another world" class section.

"This happen before to you or something?"

[mintcarver]

"Stealing away mortal- I mean humans into other realms, Yes, it has happened before. But never to this extent. One can surmise that this is another world entirely, but this one has no proof."

"One may call me Houzhang, a average human of little renown. A pleasure to meet you."

[mintcarver]

"One needs not to know much to ascertain the situation.... we are all kidnapped unexpectedly. truly this situation is most egregious." wise and common words spoken when one person gains their bearings upon waking in this strange world.

@ferociousthunder

[mintcarver]

One does not know what to do. A small starter call for ...Houzhang. nothing mysterious or shady about this middle age....sorry not so mature man. . cap at four
