[ Luna is... looking a little overwhelmed, although it might be hard to determine considering she's usually so wide-eyed all the time. But it does look like there's honestly too much going on all at once. The poor girl is a bit over-stimulated with the latest round of blood effects. Her senses are in overdrive, and just... so terribly confused right now. ]

How do I make a room that's silent—? Like from the outside? So I don't hear what's going on outside? Or perhaps someone has some very powerful ear-plugs? That might be a bit more convenient for going about outside, really...

[ She trails off for a long moment before she grimaces a little and then continues: ]

Something is... not quite right. Sometimes it's fine and then everything just goes... weird. Things... taste. And feel. When I shouldn't be able to taste or feel them in the first place. I just keep getting all these tastes in my mouth and they won't stop. [ Eating has been a nightmare the last few days. ]

It's... like I know what people taste like. And feel like.

[ Because that doesn't sound absolutely horrifying in the slightest. ]

This... is a blood thing, isn't it? I'm a Paleblood, if that helps. It must be a blood thing. Is... anyone else having this issue?

ooc: pls feel free to drop hints as to what character voices may taste like or physically feel like in ur tags. or I could just make something up for them.

I taste like rain?

[Chrollo almost sounds a little sad.]

We did that, too. It didn't rain most of the year, but when the rainy months arrived it would rain for days on end.

It doesn't quite taste the same once it's been caught in something.

You don't like that you taste like rain—?

That sounds like the opposite to my home. We got a lot of rain, all throughout the year. It was nicer when it was sunny and raining at the same time.

No, I suppose it doesn't.

It's odd that I taste like rain, growing up in a wasteland.

I think I know what you're talking about. When the sky is only partly covered and rain falls but sun shines.

[creidim]

Yes, exactly like that!

[ There's a short pause as she considers for a moment. ]

Perhaps you taste like that as it says more about you within the context of your environment. Rain in a wasteland that often went a long time without water would seem like a great relief, to me.

That didn't happen often where I'm from, just at the end of the rainy season mostly. Before that the clouds just rolled in to blanket the whole sky.

[Luna has no idea how much of an emotional gut punch that statement is, but Chrollo doesn't let it show.]

That's a nice way of looking at it.

[creidim]

I imagine it was often very grey. Not unlike home for me in that respect, too. Lots of grey days.

[ She does that sometimes. ]

I'm glad you think so. It's rather helpful to have other perspectives on things, sometimes.
