   “What? Well, why wouldn’t I look like myself? I’m the one that had their body imposed into this place by means I won’t even begin to act like I can know right now.” Wasn’t it a bigger priority to find a way out of the caverns they were in? It felt fine when they were just controlling pixelixed characters, but her lack of fighting experience (let alone her lack of using a magic freaking staff) made her cautious about spending too long in the caverns. “And I don’t think that questioning how my face looks is the biggest problem at this moment, don’t you think? ‘We’ just faced a mini-boss, so I kind of want to get out of here before any of its lackeys come running.”

   Calera took care not to point out how Allen’s body looked relative to his face. Their body types appeared to have not changed (her mage DEFINITELY had more cleavage than the dress was showing now), but the etchings and markings that Allen had given his character, namely the tattoo had appeared to mark their own bodies as well. Either way, Allen looked relatively unchanged, if a bit more exposed than she had ever seen him dress before.

   Attempting to stretch, Calera slowly arched her back as she bent one of her arms behind her head. Until her side twitched, the fabric strained against her, and she was forced to stop so she wouldn’t aggravate her injury anymore. “I think that’s enough of that, but my point still stands. We need to find a way out of this cavern.”

“…I kind of figured it was a case of mind being pulled into your game body. That’s how it always is in the anime. I hadn’t even considered that our bodies somehow got pulled in…” Allen’s game character looked very similar to how he did in life, with really the only additions being the tattoos, which had functions in the game so it made sense they remained.

“Well, we had nearly cleared the area, right? So the treasure room should be up ahead. The altar can warp us out. Assuming the game mechanics work properly, of course…” Allen pointed down the path they had yet to explore.

“You probably really should drink a potion. There may be enemies up ahead… How do we even fight now?” He pulled his daggers out and made some slashing motions, nothing seemed to happen.
