[It's hard (though not impossible) for Aerith to turn her powers off. What this means for her is that she's always turned in to the life energy of the world. It's been that way her whole life - the circumstances here are only slightly different. Being always turned into the world's loudest and most persistent radio station has many, many cons, but it's not all bad. For instance, Aerith felt an anomaly in this energy weeks ago. This anomaly was just never close by for long enough... besides, it never felt like a threat, anyway. Still, she's been curious.
She's in the right area today. The feeling is stronger.
Aerith wanders around, following it, even despite the threatening storm. She didn't expect it to lead her to an ice cream parlor and she especially didn't expect it to be a kid in a penguin suit. She knows she's not wrong about this, but still - wow.
So, she does the smart thing. She ignores it completely to get a better read on the penguin boy.]
What's this about apple pie cookie dough?
[Aerith focuses on him completely. He's lonely, isn't he? Sad? Someone he cared about was probably taken by the porter recently too. It had that big glitch or whatever last week. She understands. It took Komasan, too. Maybe it was that loneliness that made her follow this energy today finally.]
