[There's certainly no red eye, at least. And that jacket floating in the puddle is quite distinctive, perhaps especially so to an avid gamer, with the Rockenberg logo emblazoned on it fully visible.
But in the next moment something abruptly condenses inside the puddle, and Nanami might catch a glimpse of a translucent orb with something arrow-shaped inside it - like a cartoon squid egg.
That's the moment that Rider's awareness suddenly re-emerges as well. He's only vaguely aware of an unfamiliar voice, unable to pick out the actual words, as instinct kicks in and his shape begins to pull back together. Lucky him, an inkling certainly already has plenty of experience in shifting forms.
A humanoid torso starts to re-form as the puddle pulls upwards, and he gasps out of reflex moreso than actually needing to anymore. For all that Rider has begrudgingly grown accustomed to being human in the past month, however, the form he automatically conjures now, is... much closer to his old one. The large, pointed ears and particular shape of his "ponytail" are dead giveaways, even while still dripping with slime. His color, too, darkens as his form emerges, becoming nearly black dotted with lime green spots.]
What? W-who's there?
[His vision is slowly clearing as his head becomes more defined - but there's a discoloration on the right side of his face and ear, the slime there swirling a multicolored teal.]
