"It hasn't yet, so I doubt it will do so now."

[holdmystabber]

"Not yet anyway. Although I wonder if I can make a new recipe for popcorn when the time comes. I really need to get back to work on my crafting skills anyway so that should be fun."

And probably work on adjusting her older clothing since gaining a few inches all over.

[angeloftruth]

"...popcorn?" What.

[holdmystabber]

Yua raises an eyebrow at that. Wow, there's a lot of things this universe has no idea of.

"Popcorn. It's popped up corn kernels that become really fluffy after passing a certain heat temperature. Usually they're dried up first before you put them in oil. They go great with butter but other flavors include cheese and caramels."

[angeloftruth]

"Your..."Earth" has found a way to make kernels edible?"

He is baffled. Not even the Ascians had done that.

[holdmystabber]

"Yep. It's usually a snack, moreso when you're watching something entertaining like a show."

[angeloftruth]

"...can you even throw those at the performers?"

[holdmystabber]

"I mean you can but why waste good food?"

[angeloftruth]

Emet-Selch just sighs and shrugs. "Because that's what most do, though I suppose tiny bits of corn wouldn't go very far."

[holdmystabber]

Yua simply shakes her head and sighs. "Such a waste of food. I don't think I could even do that...and now I'm getting hungry with all this talk."

[angeloftruth]

Emet waves a hand off to the side--if she's hungry, he's not going to stop her.

"Go enjoy your food. I will be going nowhere."

[holdmystabber]

"What and leave you to your own devices? No, why not come with?"

[angeloftruth]

"And cause the common folk to panic at seeing a Garlean? I think not."

[vieraofinaba]

She stares flatly at him and motions to her knapsack by her side. She is an adventurer and one always needs to be prepared for any kind of occasion; which is why she pulls it towards her and rummages through until she finds what she is seeking, pulling out a long...cloth?

No, on closer inspection it's a simple cowl and it's being tossed right at the ascian.

"Simple disguise then. Just as long as you keep the hood up, no one will notice. Should be a decent fit for you."

[angeloftruth]

He catches the cowl and just stares at Yua.

"Do you want me to follow? Is that it?"

[vieraofinaba]

"Better than having a pity party here."

Yua then gets up and stretches, snagging her bag along the way and slinging it over her shoulder.

"It's up to you if you wanna follow but I doubt there's gonna be anyone else willing to lend a hand."

[angeloftruth]

He looks at the cloak and although he doesn't put it on, he doesn't throw it aside either.

"If I do, you'll be the first person to know."

[vieraofinaba]

It's not a yes...but it's also not a no. But it's something at least as Yua begins to walk away, giving Emet-Selch a simple farewell wave and head on down the beaten path.

"See you around, then!"

She's not worried about his safety or if he can handle himself because after living for thousands of years, one probably knows how to handle surroundings without godlike powers. Or she at least thinks so. Was it giving him too much credit? Maybe. Was she putting people in danger because he can still try to make sure a Rejoining happens? He would have been out of there and given her a blast for good measure.

But if he needs a hand...she'll be there.
