[When he arrived in the winter area, Yoshiya stayed calm. He knew that no one would come looking for him, so gathered his bearings and tried to push forward. Though he was prepared to survive in that wintery landscape, he was deeply relieved to be teleported somewhere warmer. Calmly still, he listened to the explanation for his predicament. With a quiet nod, he accepted this change of plans. Then made a beeline to the stables.
The companion that Yoshiya can later be found with is a horse-sized dragon, her blue hide shimmering like waves. Her solid tail eventually turns into a stream of water and her face, legs, and tail are all lined with fish-like fins. Yoshiya pats the side of her face when he finds her, sighing loudly with relief.]
There you are, Aomi. I was worried that I'd lost you. [Bobbing in the air around his head is a glowing jellyfish, who floats forward and bops Aomi's forehead. The sapphire frog on top of his head is falling asleep.] So long as we're together, I've no doubts about our ability to weather this storm... Ah, but-. Until we've secured a source of Starling, I'll have to ask you to minimize, Aomi.
[And just like that: The dragon pops like a bubble. A smaller, lizard-sized version of Aomi crawls up his pant leg and settles on his shoulder. It's when doing this that she notices they're being watched. All three companions become invisible as Yoshiya turns around.]
Oh! Pardon me. Are you looking for someone?
02 ♫ Winter Spirits
[After becoming more comfortable with the idea of showing off his spirit friends, Yoshiya decides that it's time to try making some pocket money. He has his old violin and has learned a few Christmas songs to play. All that's left is finding a suitable location to perform.
Though he only has a violin, Yoshiya's music isn't a solo. The watery dragon companion, Aomi, sings in a voice that sounds more like a synth. The glowing jellyfish provides windchime-like noises. The sapphire frog... well. Poli's croaking isn't helping, but he's got spirit.
Between songs, Yoshiya will pause and shyly gesture to the violin case that lays open to receive cash. And after the final song, he's exhausted. Once he thinks they've escaped their audience, all three spirits abruptly disappear and Yoshiya leans against the nearest wall.]
This is so much harder without Starling. At least everyone seemed happy... ugh. [And he crumples to his knees. Summoning all three of them at once was really exhausting.]
03 ♫ Ice Skating
[Yoshiya isn't so much interested in the act of ice skating as he is in watching it. Firstly, because seeing an ice rink surrounded by summer weather is strangely beautiful. And secondly, because the of the sound. The sound of skates sliding across the ice, the scrap and tap of landing a jump, the crunching of skaters skidding to a stop...
He only meant to watch for a few minutes, but now he's leaning against the rail and trying to write music notes across a page. He hums to himself too, gradually becoming lost in the piece that he's composing. When someone steps too close, Yoshiya suddenly becomes aware- And drops the paper, which floats into the ice rink.]
Au- Wait! Aahh, I need to get that! May I borrow your skates?
