[THERE IS A LOT HAPPENING JUST HERE RIGHT BEFORE HIS EYES. It's enough to distract him from the fact that he's freezing to death, having never experienced the wonders of snow before.]
...Do you need to sit down for a moment, dear? You're looking a bit... under the weather.
It's not painful, is it? [At least he doesn't seem too outwardly perturbed by this. GIRL your TENTACLES. Tragically he doesn't have anything on him to offer, either, so he's just kind of glancing around and looking for a stall that has clothing.]
I'll hope for the same... I'm so sorry you've ended up dealing with something this strange?
[He has not seen anyone become as worms (tentacles) before.]
Perhaps we can take a little walk around the market... It seems changes in temperature, setting, emotions and such can cause other changes to happen, from what I've seen so far.
[Worm meds for Shadowheart... He looks pleased to see that it seems to be helping, at least! But also a bit concerned.]
May I ask what was troubling you, then? ...Unless thinking about it too much would trouble you all over again, after you're just starting to get things under control.
Ah, yes... Things do move quickly. [A little frown.] I was going to speak to the angels about those apples later, as well. Surely they aren't meant to be here...
Ah. I see... I had hoped that the trials they were to give us would be more self-contained and personal. I do believe most here would be able to overcome this, but it's such a terrible risk, given what we know and don't know of what happens to the souls that die here...
...All the same... Even if it's perhaps a bit naive to believe it, to lose the chance at a return to life or paradise would surely be enough to dissuade anyone, yes? We all know what we're here for.
What I said to the angels was... ironically, I think someone like myself, who wants to return home for my own sake, has a better chance of resisting. But for someone who wants to use an apple for someone else, perhaps those costs would be worth it.
Even if it's meant to tempt us and prove we can resist, it's not quite fair.
Ah, that's true, I suppose... [Everyone get better gods who can grant your wishes, damn.] But I do agree that it's unfair in more ways than one. Perhaps they can do something to change it...?

Anyway he just watches this happen with some faint surprise.]
Ah?

I don't think they will have wigs enough to cover this! Ugh!

Would a scarf work?

[As he fastly waddles through the snow to go to the nearest lil bazaar kiosk that has fabrics on it to paw through for something...
He returns!! With a wooly scarf that's very good quality and also patterned with stoats wearing christmas hats.]
Will this do?

It's perfect. Hopefully this will pass before I have to encounter any other living beings.

I'd like to think none of us would do that, but I'm not so naive to believe it.
