Learned recently that the Xianzhou Luofu apparently uses a different script than Belobog and that's so cool, I love little worldbuilding things like that. ♡
And then I nearly keeled over imagining Gepard going for a daytrip with Caelus and Asta to the Luofu; Caelus is taking Asta so she can run errands (and go shopping, of course) and Gepard is tagging along because Bronya found out he'd been falsifying records about his paid time off-
(Bronya: You have two years of overdue pto?! Out!
Gepard: But-
Bronya: Go on vacation or something! Out!!)
-and. It's all a little overwhelming for poor Geppie.
Everything is so weird and different there. A part of him is curious and enjoys it, but he just doesn't really have that same pioneering spirit as his sisters and it's not as fun for him as it would be for them. He wishes they hadn't been busy and could've come along, he'd feel a lot better with Serval and Lynx. He can't even read most of the script, he's mostly reliant on Caelus and Asta or the translation function they put on his phone for him. He kind of just wants to go home. He misses his city.
And then he catches sight of a head of blue hair in the corner of his eye, snickering and messing with the script on one of the signs.
Gepard: Wh- You!?!?
Sampo: !!! :D
Sampo grins wide and darts off, Gepard launches after him out of habit, and somehow, even with Gepard being new and alien to the Luofu, Sampo always seems to stay juuuuuuust within sight, just close enough not to lose him or get lost completely.
Gepard is lead all the way out near the starskiff building grounds when he finally has to stop, because Sampo somehow scales the damn wall like a nasty little lizard, gets all the way to the top, then winks at him over the roof and tells him he'll see him later, have fun, give Serval a kiss for him back home!! Gepard flips him off even though Sampo has already turned around and left skxjkdkdmfkf
But then he finally sits down and looks around him and realizes that oh. He feels kind of. Better now. More on even footing. Stable ground. There's no snow, but the high steel walls and corridors here are more familiar to him than all the wide open space and brightly colored buildings of the main tourist section he'd been in. The background hum is quieter and gentler here, and it reminds him more of Serval's shop, as opposed to Starskip Alley's throngs of chattering people and fast-flying ships. The little pangs that made his chest feel hollow have eased up. ♡
Caelus, carrying a Certain Courier Package: ...We've heard from him, yeah.))
((Asta: Sorry it took us so long to get out here! I found this sword that Arlan would like and-
Gepard: It's fine, don't worry about it. Hey, did you know Koski is running around out here?

"I love the internet and I'm so impressed with some of the people out there and the imagination of putting real life situations with some names and also sort of features that you find out there."
Ive genuinely read this sentence 47 million times and there is no other possible meaning I can glean from this sentence other than pierre loves rpf and i mean that.
