Emerald shrugs and says he doesn't think there is anyone controlling his actions but himself. He's pretty sure anyway, but Joyride is making him worried.

Joyride frowns and says, "Okay, but if you ever get that feeling you come and tell me immediately, alright?"

Emerald gets back to the task at hand, and says he thinks he'll need a new disguise now since they found him again.

"Hmm…" Joyride says, still frowning, "I don't think it was so much they knew who you were. I'm convinced more than ever that the amulet around your neck is cursed, and more over may even have the soul of some unknown, powerful creature bound to it. Binding souls is very highly illegal and the soldiers were probably going to interrogate you to find out where you got it. Probably didn't help that you were such a young colt interested in alchemy either."

Emerald nods, and asks if he can keep the clothes then.

"It should be fine, but I wouldn't go back to that apothecary again." Joyride says smiling, "But if you are looking for an excuse to get some more girly clothes than that's a good of one as any.

Emerald rolls his eyss, and then asks if she has a copy of the wanted poster he could take a look at. He's really curious what's on it.

"Nah, I don't have one on me, but if we wander the town some we'll probably find one. We can keep a lookout when we go out to the party tonight. Anyway, if we are done freaking out I'm going to go back to my business." Joyride says, fumbling with her keys again.
