>"Do you still have them somewhere, then? Or did they actually want you to bring them to them?"

>"That's the thing," says Tewi, fidgeting with the comb. "I was supposed to deliver them, but I was kinda looking to get something to eat that wasn't eels or involved getting punted from an oni, so I went to the human town. And, well, the whole money thing happened. And...well, they're gone. I don't know what happened to them. I lost track of them or something..."
>She shrugs between fidgets.

>"I'm still me, no matter what I look like," says Tewi, as she puts the comb down. After a moment, she starts to wring out her dress again. "So it's probably the same for you, even if you look like me."
