[ Generally speaking, M'ahina being bored is not bound to end well. She isn't the sort of person who can put up with being idle, and that's something Ardbert can relate to, even if his adventuring days feel so far off now. He'd had to be idle for decades, granted no other option, and so having to live in the moment now is going to take some getting used to. He does grab a cup of tea (literally, in a cup made of paper or something like it) and takes it along with him as they wade back into the city.
While Ardbert's senses are nowhere near as sharp as M'ahina's, that doesn't necessarily make the hustle and bustle any less overwhelming. This is a far cry from the other two worlds that he knows, and while he's certain that when it comes down to it, people don't truly change, the set dressings are enough to throw him off.
At first he's so distracted by everything around them that all he can do is focus on following M'ahina, one foot in front of the other as he takes it all in. Eventually, however, he does notice the scrutiny she's under, or the way people will not-so-subtly whisper to each other after passing them by. ]
It seems they don't have Mystels here, then? Or Miqo'te. [ Same difference, truly, and their worlds were connected enough that there were such similarities. Not here, though. Is it even one of the Fourteen? ]
