G-geez, it's freezing...

[In the afternoon, those in the plaza may find this poor unfortunate new feather trudging toward it as he makes his way there in only pants. Needless to say, he's freezing, and he just wants some actual clothes and warm food...! And to know what the heck is going on. He had already glanced at his journal a bit before, so he knows where he is at least, but he's still awfully confused. Not like he really had the chance to read the journal's guide in depth yet since he's just trying to find a place to stay indoors for now.

Either way, care to help this kiddo out?]

[Later on, once he's all settled and knows what he needs to know, he creates his first journal entry in order to address a Very Important Question.]

Hello everyone. My name is Jude Mathis. I'm what you all call a "new feather," and I just arrived earlier today. I've already read most of the guide, so don't worry about filling me in on where I am and all. I do, however, have one particular question...

What do you all do with your wings in regards to clothing? It's kind of uncomfortable to keep them underneath it all, but it'd be a shame if I had to cut up my favorite clothes just to fit my wings through a hole... So does anyone have any suggestions? I figure it's either one or the other, but it's worth asking what you all do, at least.

And also, is there anyone here from Rieze Maxia? Milla? Alvin? [On one hand, he hopes he's not the only one, but on the other, he really wouldn't want them to be stuck here like he apparently is...]

Anyway, thanks.

Well, where do we get slurpies from?

Oh right! [Rue gives a sheepish giggle.] That's over this way, to the southeast. It's close to the bakery so it's nice getting something from each place.

Well, just lead the way and I'll follow. I wouldn't mind stopping by the bakery too though, if you want.

[And off they go, heading toward the southwest (because that above is a typo and full of lies) area of the square.]

Sure, we can do that! They might even have some fresh cookies and rolls out at this time.

What's your favorite thing from a bakery?

[And along he follows!]

From a bakery? Hm... [That's a tough question...] I'm not particularly picky so it's kind of hard to choose. You can never go wrong with chocolate chip cookies though.

Oh, those are so good, especially when they're fresh! I like the pastries with fruit inside them.

Like donuts or cakes? Those have fruit inside of them fairly often, I think.

Like those, but they also have um... things called danishes! And fruit tarts.

[And oh hey, here they are at the bakery. Rue grabs the door and opens it, the smell of fresh baked goods and jazz music greeting them.]

[Oooh those do sound good... He follows Rue inside though, glancing around at their surroundings.]

It's a nice place. It smells so good too... I feel like my mouth's going to water just by standing here.

I think I'm going to get a cupcake, though I don't what flavor yet. There are so many to choose from.

[Rue leans in to look at the different flavors.]

...Though I'm not sure what flavor yellow is.

Yellow?

[He leans in, examining the different cupcakes as well. Hm...]

Well, if they're all based on fruits... maybe it's lemon-flavored?

Maybe, but don't you think they'd say lemon-flavored instead of yellow? It'd be like saying something chocolate-flavored was brown.

[It's a mystery to us all!]

Oh, right... That's true. Or calling strawberry pink and cherry red.

...Admittedly, I'm really curious about it now. I kind of want to try it.

We should each get one! And... [Rue looks at the case to see what else is in there.] Lemon cookies! So we can compare the flavor.

That sounds like a good idea. They look enough like lemon-flavored foods, so maybe they'll taste similar. [Except not, but what does he know.]

So how about we get a couple of them, so we each have one of each?

Okay! Excuse me! [Rue asks the bakery employee on staff.] Can we get two yellow cupcakes and... four lemon cookies? [Because they're smaller than the cupcakes.] And... anything else?

Hm...

[He takes another glance at the pastries before nodding and speaking up to the employee.]

Could we get a slice of one of those chocolate cakes too? [It looks so good...]

And two chocolate chip cookies! [Because they're good.

And they good? They good. The employee boxes up their goods and hands them over the counter. These two are going to be so sugar high.]

Thank you!

[The most sugar high. Jude happily takes his pastries though, a little anxious and excited about trying them out.]

Thank you. [And then to Rue...] So... Should we find somewhere to sit?

There's tables outside, but it's a bit cold. I'm sure no one will mind if we eat at the convenience store! We can get drinks too.

Yeah, I'd rather not be stuck out in the cold again... [He's has enough of that for one day.]

We can do that though. Just lead the way again.

Can do! It's not too far from here!

[Rue clutches the box of baked goods to her chest as she walks toward the door. It's not far from all, just around the corner and past the flower shop the convenience store awaits. It's like the grocery store in that there are aisles of food, mostly snacks or non-perishables, a freezer for ice cream and microwaveable food, fresh sandwiches and bento boxes, but there are also aisles for simple home items, mostly medicine or hyginene products.

And of course, what they both came for, the slurpie machine. The machine whirs and hums as the brightly colored liquid slush swirls around in the viewing windows. A stack of cups is nearby.]
