"Sloth Toddy, officer?" said one young woman, dressed in a skimpy mini skirt and crop top, the rest of her body painted with glow in the dark markings. In one hand was what Doppo thought to be the Sloth Toddy, a lavender-colored drink with glowing cyan ice cubes that smelled of licorice.
"Huh? Oh..." Doppo looked down at the girl, realizing that his Rune Knight pendant was hanging around his neck. At places like this, the presence of authority seemed to spook some people, so with that in mind, he tucked it inside his sweatshirt. "Sloth... Toddy?"
"This drink will leave you feeling A-MA-ZING! No matter what sort of foul mood you're in, it gets you into party mode before you can say Sabertooth! You don't seem like you're in the right head to be partying, so this is on the house. Here! Take it!" she boasted about the drink before handing it to him. Doppo accepted it, only to attempt to hand it back to her.
"Oh, actually—"
"Have a good Urban Nights, officer! Ta-taa!~" she bid him a suggestive farewell. After that, the girl had vanished into the crowd, leaving the red-haired man alone in a crowd with a drink he was somewhat skeptical of.
Truthfully, Doppo wasn't entirely sure why he came to this party. He was hoping to lift his spirits after what had happened and even stayed in his much more muscular form to get that sort of adrenaline that came with it, but he was still quite depressed. It had been about a month or two now since Onida disappeared, and he hadn't heard from her or seen her since. It was around the time she had told him that she was pregnant with their children that she went off the grid, and for these last few months, the unemotional redhead had been doing everything in his power to find her, but to no avail.
Needless to say, he really felt awful now. All of the days he spent preparing himself for fatherhood and building up the finances to support Onida and their kids suddenly fell flat. He wondered if she was ever even pregnant, to begin with, at this point. He had never asked her to get tested, and never attended the appointment she made with her doctor. He didn't know until she had confronted him about it, and then she vanished without a trace. How was he supposed to feel? He knew that their relationship was purely sexual up until then, and even now Doppo knew he still didn't feel any romance between them. What did he do wrong? Was it okay to move on?
Doppo didn't know, and he was beginning to feel the effects of tirelessly wondering. He hadn't told anyone about it, and he wasn't sure if he should at this point. Even in this form, he couldn't feel the energy so accustomed to that built body of his, and he really just wanted to feel that way again. He wanted to get back on-duty and look forward to his meals, but right now he just... couldn't.
Fortunately, despite his depression, Doppo was still as clueless and clumsy as he ever was before. Captivated by the drink in his hands, he continued to walk forward until he had completely bumped into someone. Some of the Sloth Toddy spilled on his sweatshirt when he felt his shoulder knock against someone, but he didn't seem particularly shocked for it to have happened. Quietly, his bright baby blue eyes drifted to what would be a woman.
"Ah... my bad. Are you okay?"
"Huh? Oh..." Doppo looked down at the girl, realizing that his Rune Knight pendant was hanging around his neck. At places like this, the presence of authority seemed to spook some people, so with that in mind, he tucked it inside his sweatshirt. "Sloth... Toddy?"
