( it feels like he's awoken into a nightmare of a sort- dark and nonsensical, with creatures that he's never seen before, all of which are violent. but riddle is not defenseless, thankfully. he's not a fighter... but he is a prodigy mage, and it shows when he summons fire to shield him from assault with his wand. ... the red gem hasn't shown any tarnish yet. inhale, exhale. he's alright. he just has to find a way out. )
♕ an interesting gleam
So we're supposed to slay monsters, then?
( well. that feels... hm. archaic? but between slaying monsters and finding cubes that look like... literally everything else here, or staying in this dreadful place, there's little choice is there? they have to see it all done. )
I am a mage, at least, but... well. I suppose we'll have to try. I have no intention of staying here.
♕ a bit of respite
( well. alright. he's got a few potions at least, which is handy! there's little he can do himself if someone were to get hurt, so it's comforting at least. but for now, he's going to take advantage of the relative peace of the platform. it's times like these that he loathes his uniform coming with high heels, but far be it from him to complain. and now that he's got a few minutes to breathe... )
What do you make of all this?
♕ an unusual sight
... I'll admit, I've seen some rather silly things before, but fishing without water is a new one.
( he says this, but he's still looking over the edge with more care than it may appear at a glance. )
... I've never gone fishing before, actually. Do you think you'll actually get something?
♕ wildcard
( riddle is the young housewarden of heartslabyul from twisted wonderland! he's a good but temperamental boy, and may have transformed into a monster at one point. he got better. he's a powerful mage... but uh, kinda scrawny and unathletic otherwise, even if he does his best. )
