[She rests her chin in her hand, looking a bit surprised.]
Oh. Is not like minded... [But hey! Food!] Ah, do not cook, so is not really needed. But will never say no to sushi!
[She's absolutely fallen in love with sushi.] They have all sorts! Moran, have you tried them? Is so good! [She's so eager to talk about how great sushi is, let her tell you all about it because clearly you don't know.]
[Honestly she's just surprised she hasn't dragged him to get some before now.]
Hmm... [Good question.] Lots of places to eat have them, especially with food like Xunxian made before! And sometimes in grocery stores, whole area just for things like that!
There are many different kinds, but salmon and tuna and eel are seen most. Like those very much! Moran, should try some too!
[ a pause, a few quiet seconds as the message continues recording. finally, there's a sigh from venus. ]
If you get this... Oh, this is Venus, by the way? From the fair. [ it's strange - her s sounds are just a little too sibilant, a little lisped and hissed. ] Anyway. If you get this. I miss you? I really... really liked spending time with you.
[ a pause. a slow breath, before she continues her little drawl. ]
I was sort of hoping you'd want to spend a little more? Today, I mean.
[She calls back cheerfully, definitely sounding pleased to hear from her] Venus, are too cute. Will come to you, whenever you need. Just have to say so! Liked spending time with you too.
Am free. Your home, or mine? [the 's' thing is a little odd, but she figures you'll learn about it sooner or alter.]
Oh! [ she doesn't sound... surprised that oona's getting back to her so quickly, exactly. more relieved than anything? still, it's a positive thing for sure. ] Cool. Awesome.
[ there's a moment's silence as she tries to think on her feet. she wasn't... expecting that response quite so quickly?? moon-given confidence is one thing, but she's not quite that cocky yet. ]
Um. Either works? I mean... I don't have a roommate, so my place might be easier. I don't know. [ a breath - and then, with a bit more of that original forwardness: ] Actually, yeah. Let's do my place.
[ On Christmas Eve, Oona will receive a delivery! It's a shoddily-wrapped present. When she opens it, she'll find a shell-themed jewellery and trinket box. ]
To Oona,
Thought you might need a box to keep all the random stuff you collect. Kinda reminded me of you anyway. Merry Christmas!
Oona, this is Shifu. As my brother is remarkably slow on these things, I wanted to ask, when did you intend to marry him?
[ don't worry, jiu is dying of embarrassment while yuan has had to deal with so much dog food from all around him lately he just wants a resolution on this particular one WHEN IS HIS BROTHER GOING TO BE AN HONEST MAN
[Wedding talk, all great, but please enjoy the picture Oona sends of herself. Don’t mind the fact that she’s naked in it, the important thing is that from the waist down she has a beautiful blue mermaid tail.]
See? See?
[She’s excited let her live!!
...Oh, hm. The rest of the question finally catches up with her and she hums thoughtfully.]
When? Does it matter if it is tomorrow or in a few months? We can marry when Qiuqiu is ready to marry. Human marriages take so much more time! Mermaid marriages are very quick.
[ WHALAKSJD NAKED MERMAID is less scandalous than naked humanoid to be honest because it just is, but he still manages to avert his eyes to the relevant part: the beautiful tail, pixelating out any possible nip slips. This is how he works, you're welcome. Oona now has her modesty, that isn't hers to begin with, preserved. ]
I think he'd find a mermaid marriage infinitely more preferable. The things which ceremonies like those entail in our home would be less than... good.
[ Not that it particularly matters one way or another, but he also doubts Jiu has it in him to say, yes, please, if we are this thing, can we be? ]
Your tail is lovely, Oona. I'm glad it's... returned?
Hmm, do you think so...? [She’ll have to bring it up to him then! But now she’s curious:] Why is there rush?
[But she sounds pleased again as his compliments and there’s the sound of splashing, swishing water as she moves around.] Mm! Shifu, did I not tell you? Tail was stolen from me at home. But here, was able to get it back!
The lack of knowing how long any of us remain here. I'd rather he not convince himself that your love is one more lie the world's crafted.
[ Really, it's just... seizing happiness while anyone can. Plus people keep talking about or referencing marriage and by now he, the single dog, is tired of the many excuses or convoluted logics he hears.
But that's really him just butting in for his not twin. ]
Ah, then congratulations are due, along with belated apologies for its theft. I'm happy this world has returned this part of yourself to wholeness.
[There’s a pause on the other end at that, the silence stretching out just long enough for it to seem awkward before she makes a small noise of understanding.] I understand. I will talk to him.
[Slyly, she adds:] But once I am no longer thinking of it so much, will have time to think of someone else who should be married.

[Indeed, he does not know, Oona.]
Where can it be acquired?

Can we!? Yes, yes! Would like that very much! Food tastes so much better when sharing with loved people!
