anyway. virgo appears out of shadows shortly after aikawa rings the bell, chewing on something under their veil - or at least that's what it sounds like, from the noises they're making - and snatches the key out of the lockbox. after a few moments, one of the stars at the bottom lights up and remains lit.
they hand it back to aikawa.]
There. It's a really fucking useful power, so you better thank me.
[jerky is now his! as stated on the menu, activating the power will manifest a piece of jerky that, when eaten, will heal minor injuries... but the jerky looks highly questionable, it won't taste good, and you'll probably feel queasy for a little bit after eating it. hope he's got a strong stomach! the power cannot be activated during trials, and while he can activate it and not eat it immediately, eating it during trial also wouldn't have any effect. one use only.]
[they sound a little surprised, like they didn't expect him to actually thank them. and a little awkward, because ... they're not used to being thanked, apparently?]
But, ha! Hahahaha! Of course you're different. You actually thought to come and ask me for that power, instead of going to one of the other bastards! You get it!
[ AM I TALKING TO A CHUUNIBYOU TEENAGER OR SOMETHING? I'm losing it I've decided I love Virgo. ]
It's jerky! How am I gonna say no to that! 'Sides, I'm not smart enough for all this power juggling stuff and I sure as hell ain't gonna poison someone! You know, I'm considering asking you for your other one too!
[ You may be cursed to deal with Aikawa for longer. ]
OF COURSE YOU ARE! [why are you yelling that] My powers are fucking good! Why the fuck would you want any of the others, when mine are so good! You can ask me next week!
Wow, next week! That's coming up so fast, but then I won't be able to ask you for your awesome powers for the next however long! [ Jazzhands. ] My life will be void and bereft. What reason is there for me to go on after that...
[ I meant to say this earlier but forgot but I really just hope this is like. Qi Rong, just the powermove of NPCing Qi Rong. I was his only friend in chasma and you expect me to have better taste. ]
Is that an invitation? You know, some people describe me like a gnat, once you let me in you might never get rid of me.
Who said it was an invitation? But I can't stop you if you decide you like my company best and come see me! Hahaha, everyone should! I'm way better than those other bastards!

This is so sad that the jerky doesn't even taste good but he will pocket it. Not his problem! Hopefully. ]

Wanna hang out next week then? I like going around seeing what's good eating, maybe if there's someplace good.
