Even if I'm making this much of a fuss about it, I really do appreciate you looking out for me like this. It means a lot. Thank you.
On the topic of things happening, though, something odd did come up when I was clearing out one of those dungeon gates that got mentioned on the post at the start of the month. (Nothing that requires body dumping grounds.)
Part of the result I think is probably best seen in person, though.
I have heard of them, of course. I knew it's a phenomenon mostly seen in Korea, but I can imagine it's not the other supernatural race's favorite thing to see pop up either. I remember an Instagram post from a Gumiho a few months ago in passing with one in the background.
It must be so damn inconvenient to have to deal with them constantly, they're enough of a pain in the ass here.
(Yes I've been clearing them out where I can and yes I promise I have been taking breaks!)
Anyway, I was in one and in the middle of a fight with some of the monsters within and I found myself able to conjure up ice. Not a lot, mind, but enough that I made at least a couple of enemies slip on sudden ice patches.

You are an endless mystery, My Dear. It's forever a mistake to underestimate you. It's even the element of Mockingbird. Fate works in mysterious ways.
Is it really? Well, if it progresses from there, I'll let you know.
Fate really does work in mysterious ways... I'm starting to think it has a sense of humor, too, buuuuut that's something to be addressed once you've returned and I can show you the other part of what happened.

... Now that she's used to the change, she has to admit she definitely likes it.]

[Which may have contributed to him being so dense beforehand...]
