Stone takes a long few minutes to pick himself up off the pew he found himself in. He's not sure whether it's the new people handling the lantern repair, or the World Eater being involved, or some consequence of dying, but shit, he is tired. And everything still smells like death. Ugh.
He does finally push to his feet, because the church is not where he'd like to nap if he's going to nap, and there's probably some people worried about him. His lantern in hand, he wanders sluggishly out, heading for Bonfire Square and the Invincible. Maybe someone will have food out he can graze on, get this taste off his tongue. Yuck.
II. A New Friend
Really, Stone isn't one for looking in mirrors. Why bother? He can't see well enough to get much out of it, he doesn't actually bathe in the bathroom of his inn suite more often than not, and he doesn't really give a shit what he looks like. So he doesn't immediately notice the little... oddity... that has cropped up since his death. Maybe it's someone in the Invincible who notices it first, reflected in a window. Maybe it's in the lake when he goes for his winged-form swim-slash-bath.
But if nobody else points it out, he finally wanders into the Invincible again, and demands of anyone else there, "Okay, what is wrong with my reflection? It looks funny, but I can't shitting see it well enough to tell what it is."
III. Forging Ahead
There aren't a ton of people left Stone really cares about, after Masaomi vanished. Rosinante, Ashford, Mary. That's no way for a social species like a Raksura to live. So dead mirror haunting or not, he's going to do something about it. Prowling around Beacon and the downtown area, he's looking for people he doesn't know, and he's going to aggressively get to know them.
Well, "aggressively". It mostly amounts to, "So remind me what your name is, again?" and "Are you going to eat all that?" and "Hey, just ignore the dead guy in the mirror, I don't actually think he's there."
It also amounts to a big, ghostly, winged dragon-like creature swooping around Beacon proper and jumping from rooftop to rooftop in downtown, or splashing around in the lake sending splashes at anyone on the shore with his tail. In case anyone wants to meet a giant-ass dragon, instead of a weirdly pale old man.
