*like some sort of wisp or ghost, the Alternate Sadame can be spotted in the city.

While they prefer to stay in the safety of the Arboretum unless needed, the nature of the hiding place means they can't establish any permanent method of getting food or water.

Which means they need to wander out into the city to head for a convenience store or something, hoping partially that they'll unblinkingly accept their money.

Or, worse case, be able to steal things effectively enough.

You should help them to not steal.*

*... ... gets one of those high-protein and carb rice bowls, then. one of the fresh ones made at the store itself.

They absolutely have been living outdoors. Cryptid.*

[wherethewildthingsare]

....Are you camping, at the moment. Cryptid is harsh. He was just thinking basket case.

[timesflow]

In a sense of the word, sure.

*absolutely a cryptid. mothman or the flatwoods monster.*

[wherethewildthingsare]

So living outside.

The Flatwoods Monster is a little too close to other people he knows, that makes too much sense...

[timesflow]

*exactly. What else would fit well.*

Yes, fine. I've been living outside. Doesn't really matter how it's defined, does it?

[wherethewildthingsare]

I'm just a tad. Concerned.

[timesflow]

About? *comparing dates on some items*

[wherethewildthingsare]

You. Duh.

[timesflow]

Sounds ridiculous, to me. *hmm, maybe more water...*

[wherethewildthingsare]

Is it so unusual for someone to be concerned for you.

[timesflow]

Yes, effectively.

*okay, this might be enough meals to last me a bit, if I eat sparingly enough...*

[wherethewildthingsare]

Well I am still concerned.

[timesflow]

Well, you can stop. *finishing picking out things. Has not looked at you directly this whole time.*

I'm done.

[wherethewildthingsare]

...And you're way too suspicious to accept more help.

[timesflow]

Well, I'm a suspicious person.

In multiple definitions of the word. In fact, I still wonder why you're trying to talk to me...

[wherethewildthingsare]

Why wouldn't I, when I keep running into you.

[timesflow]

Completely coincidental.

In a better situation, you would not see me at all.

[wherethewildthingsare]

Is there a problem with me noticing you. You do seem so cagey around me..

[timesflow]

Yes, actually. I would rather not be noticed. I'd rather no one remember I was here. I'd rather not really be here, but the alternative is worse. So, I'm here, being accosted.

*god this is just how a fusion of two people you know would be...*

[wherethewildthingsare]

Why do Samasu always default to wanting to be invisible and possibly non-existent. Tch.

...And why do you want to be a ghost.

[timesflow]

*they're crazy. all of them. genetically so.*

Mostly schematics of the fact that I don't intend to stick around, but things have kept me here longer than necessary.

[wherethewildthingsare]

I am not sure I believe there are circumstances when you would not try to be a ghost.

[timesflow]

You don't know my life, so that's understandable.

[wherethewildthingsare]

I have more of an idea that you might think.

[timesflow]

Really. How assumptive are you of that, anyway?

*definitely prickly... is putting the basket by the register.*
