Oh. So it's just a dollar store novel.

[She sits down

and scoots her chair closer.]

Tell me more.

[fluffier]

[ Yuel has the expression of someone who's just reeled in a tasty fish. ]

Pachilles and Atroclus were roommates trainin' together until they got separated by war, but they were in love. It took 'em like five years to reunite, but when Atroclus finally finds Pachilles again... He's disguised as a woman! And he won't admit who he is!

[toesies]

Oh, my god. There's crossdressing and mistaken identities, too?

[fluffier]

Ain't it exciting? It's probably a good thing ya can't carry these around, I'd be readin' all the time.

[toesies]

Get yourself a tablet when we're out of here, and you can do just that.

[She is now invested in this romance. Keep scrolling Yuel.]

[fluffier]

[ She scrolls...

There's drama. There's intrigue. And there's eventually a scene where Atroclus confronts Pachilles and tears off his gown.

Yuel stops, wiping her forehead. ]

I think we got to the porn.

[toesies]

[LOW WHISTLE...]

Don't stop now. Indulgence is key, and I would definitely call this indulging.

[Does it count as Gluttony indulgence if they become avid Atroclus/Pachilles shippers and consume the whole tag.]

[fluffier]

Weren't ya just judgin' me?

[ But she is invested. Incidentally, so am I. ]

[toesies]

That was before I was emotionally invested.

1/2

[fluffier]

Well, if ya say so.

[ she scrolls... ]

[fluffier]

... To be continued...?

[toesies]

... Wait. That's it?

[fluffier]

But... it's not finished? Did I do something wrong?

[toesies]

I don't think so. Did they publish an unfinished novel?

[fluffier]

That's sadistic! Who would do that!

[toesies]

Look up the title or characters! Maybe there's a completed version somewhere out there.

[fluffier]

Uhh, okay! I'm on it!

[ struggles with navigating the page she doesn't even know how she got here in the first place ]

[toesies]

[



watches her struggle]

On second thought, maybe I should do it.

[fluffier]

Sheila, ya gotta find it for us!

[ scoots over and grips her shoulder ]

[toesies]

I'm on it!

[she will not find it

but she will find a shit ton of other Pachilles and Atroclus fic.]

[fluffier]

Holy moly...

[ her eyes are wide with wonder, the way link looks when opening a shining treasure chest. ]

Ya did it.

[toesies]

These don't look to be the same, though...

[fluffier]

What's wrong with 'em?

[ more words?? ]

[toesies]

They're not a sequel to the one we were reading.

[fluffier]

Oh, is it like side quests?
