There's several things about Benjiro's situation that Russell doesn't envy, and the abruptness of those physical changes is a big one of them. How long will his streak of fortune last, with him being alone or only with networked friends around when things happen?

With that worry on his mind, Russell positively sags. "Oh, god. Is it noticeable? I don't want to go to a doctor, I feel fine, but..." Something is not quite right. Mildly enough that it might not be one of the magical changes, but persistent enough that there's little besides that or some serious illness to explain it.
