I look like a Bugster right now and it is pretty close to how Poppy looks.

Of course, my eyes aren't anything like hers. I'm not Asian, so I don't have the same kind of eyes as she does. However, Emu did some eyeliner to give it more of a slanted look and apologized for making me seem like I'm trying to appropriate someone's culture. I just hope I don't offend anyone by dressing up as her to get around.

"This isn't going to work," Hiiro says, being a buzzkill. What gives him the right to shoot down Emu's excellent plan? "She's not Asian."

"He won't be able to tell from far away," Parad states. "He might not be able to tell the difference if he sees her from far away. We're going to put sunglasses on her when walking around and keep our eyes looking out for him."

"Cronus won't buy it. He's not an idiot."

"Hiiro, he's a total idiot," I spit out, rolling my eyes. "The dude totally ignores the morals and values of people when it comes to his plans. He thought you would let Taiga die and you didn't. He didn't think of that." 

Hiiro nods his head. "I am aware of that, but that doesn't mean he'll far for this. You're whiter than most girls in the world who are white."

"I don't have a reason to get a tan. Don't be a hater." I don't need to get toasted if I don't want to. "And I'm not that white. I am not as pale as some people I've seen in real life. There's a wrestler where I'm from that is super pale."

"That isn't surprising," he responds. "Emu, are you sure you think this is good enough for her to go out in?"

"I believe she's ready to go out. We can't keep her locked up for too long. Elkie needs to be out in the world socializing and being taught not to fear her own shadow. She's a grown woman and has to live with the fact she betrayed him to save this world."

Hirro sighs a bit and looks at Emu. "Do you think I don't want that? I want Elkie to be able to go out and see the world here before anything else goes down." 

"I think she's looking great!" Poppy exclaims. "Kuroto isn't going to come out, so don't even bother asking for him."

I look over at her and give her a wave. "Hey, it is great seeing you," I say, smiling softly. "I am not going to ask for him right now. I do not need his help."

"If you bump into him, you're going to need backup. If anything happens, call for help immediately and get out of there. Parad, we're going to rely on you for your assistance. You get her out the moment something pops up." Hiiro's eyes move over to the Bugster boy. 

"I will do so. Relax, I won't let her get into trouble." 

"You are trouble, so she'll be getting into it no matter what." Hiiro does have a point. "You should get going since you don't want to end up eating nothing."

"Right! Get going! You look so great like that Elkie!" Poppy really loves seeing people dressed up similar to her doesn't she? "It isn't everyday someone gets to dress like me and rock it."

"It is the first time." Hiiro looks at her, looking cold. "Now, Poppy, let's go and talk away from this room. Kuroto needs to do his Kuroto things."

"Understood."

I guess that means it is time for us to go.

"How's your food?" Emu asks me as I swallow my burger. 

"Orgasmic." I am so in love with this place already. I don't want to get up and leave this delicious fast food joint ever. "Can I marry it?"

Emu chuckles, shaking his head. "No, you can't marry it. You're going to be marrying me, so you can't marry that burger. Parad, how is your food?"
