[Action]

[When Izumo finds herself back in the village post-mallynap, the first thing she does is head home--she'll talk to Rin and Shiemi if they're around, but regardless she doesn't wind up staying too long. Why? Because after searching the house, she's come to realize that the fox kit she got for Christmas is missing. Hoping he hadn't been gone for too long or gotten too far, she'll wander the village asking people if they've seen a tiny gray fox in town lately.]

[Video]

[Later in the day Izumo sits in her room, making sure to keep the fox close now that she's retrieved him--after a lot of searching, she found him with Ran Fan.]

I've had a long day and I don't think going to the library would do me much good anyway, so I'm just going to ask--does anyone know what kinds of foods are best to eat when you can't smell?

[Izumo lets out a sigh, pausing for a minute as the baby fox tries to crawl up her and onto her shoulder...which frankly wouldn't make a very good perch for him.] Get down...

[Grabbing him and placing him in her lap, she returns her focus to her journal.]

...Anyway, before anyone stupid asks? Yes, smell and taste are connected.

Makes it more difficult, things start to taste funny.

[Tenten plz.]

So they taste like how they wouldn't normally taste, huh?

[ She thinks she gets it now! ]

Yes, congratulations. You finally grasped the concept.

Does this mean that fish taste like strawberries or something? And excuse me, It's not my fault the concept is really strange!

Taste like strawberries? You're kidding, right? Because that assumption is way too ridiculous.

I'm not sure. I'm not the one with my senses not working as I fail to give any proper examples or explanation. [ Uh oh, Izumo. It looks like Tenten is starting to mirror that disgruntled look you've been wearing for the this whole thread. ]

Haven't you ever had a cold before?

I have but it never resulted in me tasting differently. I wonder why that's happening to you.

Mallynapping, that's why.

Oh, mallynapping. Our favorite past time here at Luceti. [ Tenten's voice has enough sarcasm to support a small economy if sarcasm was a commodity. ]

Yeah, it was loads of fun. Can't wait to do that again.

[Let Izumo boost the economy too.]

I'm sure a variety of the Lucetians would absolutely love to be experimented on without consent, but, alas, there are so few slots available. [ Isn't that tragic? ]

I'm just so lucky to have been chosen recently.

It was an honor and a privilege that is usually reserved for the highest of society! To have your senses messed with to the point where they aren't very usable! What a courageous honor that speaks tremendous amounts of character! [ Violins and classical music might be starting up with how overly formal this sarcasm is. ]

...Yeah, that. [You ninjas are weird.] Can't wait until it happens again.

Well, they seem to ignore recent experimentees for a couple of months, at the very least. I don't think I've ever seen a consecutive mallynap. [ There is some silver lining here! ]

Oh, really? What a shame. The waiting will kill me.

[AKA thank god.]

Perhaps you can reapply for the position of experimental victim again if you really want to go. Maybe they're taking requests. [ She sounds totally deadpan with this suggestion. ]

I guess I'll have to go look into that. Good idea.

I come up with the best. [ She thinks. ]

Clearly. How can I ever thank you for figuring out how to get me kidnapped and experimented on again?

Sesame dumplings would be a good start! They're always my favorite! [ She's actually serious about this. She loves them sesame dumplings. ]

...I was joking.

[Well, there goes that.]

I know. Doesn't mean I can't offer some helpful hints for the future.

[ Still wants those dumplings tbh. ]

Don't get your hopes up.
