[ man it's super hard to get lost in an ikea, but oh well. anyways, eiden is here robbing a register of it's register paper when shen qingqiu shows up. with one of those tiny pencils in his mouth he waves briefly. ]

Hi.

[peakfan]

[ sometimes you just get overwhelmed by `modern furniture` you just live here now amongst the blahaj. sqq seems to be partially surprised to find a person when he turns a corner but also partially baffled by eiden's... uh.... paper acquiring... but sure okay. he's not gonna judge

(much) ]

Hello.

[silicone]

[ as he squirrels away his paper into his jacket, topper pops out from inside of his jacket briefly to acknowledge sqq with a soft chrr and to hide again. he glances at the receipt machine. ]

They won't miss it... besides, there's probably more or whatever. If I don't get my hands on paper, I'm gonna go nuts.

[peakfan]

If it is like any other store, there should be plenty in storage.

[ sqq says as topper catches his attention and coos internally. A cute fuzzy friend??? rip to eiden but he just became second fiddle ]

[silicone]

[ that's fine, topper is just vibing as eiden gives him a little scritch. ]

Exactly. Thanks.

Were you looking for something? [ he's not an ikea worker???? but??? whatever??? ]</smalL.

[peakfan]

Exploring, for one.

[ no one must ever know he laid on a ikea bed for a few minutes and cried real tears about it ]

There are many things to see after all.

[silicone]

Yeah... there really are. I haven't been to an Ikea in like a year. Don't have those in Klein. Forgot how big they are!

[ he laughs a little. ]

I'm Eiden, by the way. And this little guy is Topper.

[ who squeaks in greeting ]

[peakfan]

[ sqq inclines his head to topper ]

Well met. This one is Shen Qingqiu. [ ... give him a minute to mentally fry squint and replay eiden's words in his head ] Where is Klein, if I may?

[silicone]

A fever dream... [ he mutters ] It's a place I ended up when I... it's kind of a long story. It's just the place where they took me from!

I can just say I'm not unfamiliar with being snatched from one world and dropped into a totally different one. It's... really jarring.

w0, mon

[peakfan]

[ SQQ looks completely out of place standing outside the selfie shop but then again, given how he dresses right now everywhere looks out of place right now. He's casually fanning himself in seemingly curiosity, but hasn't attempted to walk in yet. What even would he take selfies for, huh??? ]

Of all additions....

[silicone]

What's wrong with it? It's so cool.

[ says eiden smugly from behind sqq's shoulder. how did he get there? who knows! ]

And I mean, hey, better than wandering the Ikea like a bunch of shambling ghosts, right? I've been dying for something fun.

[peakfan]

[ i.....sekai....? IS EIDEN ALSO LIKE HIM? HELLO? HELLO????????! ]

Indeed? I would imagine the sensation would be similar to this.

[silicone]

It... definitely is. The first thing I thought was that I might have just suddenly died from all the overtime and terrible diet, but. Wasn't the case.

[peakfan]

I suppose it fits the 'in a game' theme we have.

[ sqq (surprisingly?!) is unbothered by him appearing and only makes a small huff at the brightly colored decor ]

And far better than doing nothing but eating terrible food.

[peakfan]

[ (mentally) POINTS LOUDLY AND CONSISTENTLY IN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ]

You as well?!

[silicone]

Eh?!

[ he just imitates the shock bc he's confused ]

What do you mean?

[peakfan]

That fucking novel got me so infuriated, food poisoning did me in! I got sucked into that stupid system to do its bidding! What the fuck!

[ one would notice he drops the peak lord voice while he yells. who knew people actually get isekai'd!! ]

[silicone]

Holy shit! We're—

[ the same... ]

Wow. What the fuck. So like. You got sucked into some weird world from home? Are you from Earth too!?

[silicone]

Yeah, there's only so much McDonalds and Ikea a person can handle.

[ eiden nods aggressively, and unfortunately he is grossly tactile, so if he's allowed, he's already gently taking shen qingqiu's upper arm to steer him inside. let's go, bud. ]

C'mon, let's go! We can take some cool pics. Besides, I wanna talk to you about something.

[peakfan]

[ he's gonna snap his fan in half holy shit ]

I was! From China! [ at least that part was for realsies! ] It's been... a very, very long time since it happened.

[silicone]

[ DON'T SNAP YOUR FAN ]

... How long...?

[peakfan]

[ help him he'll be allowing this all week and the minute the clock turns to 12am next monday, he's gonna roll into the most prickliest hedgehog like what the fuck!! what the fuck!! what the fuck!!!! you know, as you do. ]

Selfies. In this getup.

[ he says, unable to stop complaining and yet still tagging along. please!! ]

[peakfan]

[ math lady.gif ]

It's been at least ten years.

[ and some change? help me the timeline is a disaster ]

[silicone]

Ten!?

You haven't been able to go back in ten years!?

[silicone]

[ this is, indeed, the best week of eiden's life (it's w0) best week of his life. he will leave shen qingqiu instead, laughing. ]

What, you don't want to immortalize this look with a picture? It's not bad, you know.
