[Rosinante is bundled up against the cold in layers, his old feather coat now converted into a thick scarf, and with his fleece rabbit hat instead of the heart-tailed red one - nothing wrong with it, thankfully, it's just an especially cold day. It's the weather that has him in a hurry, too, with a sack of oats in his arms and something else causing his bag to bulge as he heads for The Invincible to help restock.
But he slows down a few paces off. It's been a while since he's seen anyone new - the lantern is unfamiliar, and so is the height - but new, he very quickly realizes, isn't the right word. His eyes go from casual surprise to wide shock.]
Daylight...?
[Daylight died. Cao Pi found a piece of his armor. It's rare that people come back and it usually means they're from some other universe, as it's been explained to him. So is this real, or is that seven-eyed creature lurking just past the edge of the trees? He risks a glance in that direction before snapping his attention back to Day.
He'd ask if it's really him, but if it's a hallucination, it would say yes anyway, wouldn't it?]
