[OPEN] haven't you noticed

Who: Hakuno and other hard-working Heroes
When: 7/05—8/05
Where: Caissa, Petrosian
What: Hakuno performs hard labor for hard cash. Edit: This also doubles as an overflow post for any Ball/Festival threads that people might want to continue.
Rating: Probably general, will modify as necessary


i. fly angry

Shoot shoot shoot...

[Is she talking to herself, or the jammed tranquilizing gun in her hand? Well, really, it shouldn't matter. What matters, in the moment, is the bulging mail-bag bouncing on her hip as she bolts down the streets and side-streets and the trio of gryphons swooping after her. She skids and bolts around a corner, nearly falling, and ducks inside the nearest coffee shop for sanctuary. She quickly gets away from any windows and flops into an empty seat, offering a tired smile to the wide-eyed waitress as she smoothes down her hair.]

Sorry. Mail delivery is a bit more serious than it used to be, these days.



ii. a good day's labor

[Hakuno is, perhaps, a little too excited for such a normal, banal chore. She's even humming as she bends to weed her plot of land, gently shooing away the squirrel-like creatures that occasionally crop up and try to nibble at the bucket of roughage. Francis Xavier's sweet, pleading gaze is far more effective, so she doesn't pay them any more heed than it takes to send them skittering off.

She pauses after she clears her first patch, retightens her ponytail, and hefts up the bucket to go toss it with the rest of the weeds. Once that's done, she stretches and glances around]


Now, where exactly do I grab those seeds...?



iii. day at the museum

[Hakuno is fascinated. She's buried in a stack of books, eagerly drinking in the recorded history of Gammon. Whatever her feelings about Ryder might be, his country sounds beautiful. There are some tourism pamphlets she's managed to scrounge up, and the elderly librarian agreed to talk to her about his honeymoon to Gammon when he takes his lunch break.]

Such a huge clock... I wish there was a bigger picture of it.


iv. before the stroke of midnight

[Hakuno had a top-level for the party-log here if you wanted to continue anything!]

[There's a short, fluffy-haired girl wandering by. She's in a hero uniform, wearing a familiar pair of glasses as she rushes on by with another stack of books.]

[She pauses to look over at Hakuno as she's reading, and then decides to set her books down and have a seat right nearby.]

Heya, Hakuno! I think we're working on the same thing... want some help?
fuhrinkaed: (¬girl: i got this)

[personal profile] fuhrinkaed 2016-07-24 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
Yep! [She pulls a book over and cracks it open.]

It's Ed. I uh--had a little accident in the dungeon and now, bam, I'm stuck looking like this.
fuhrinkaed: (¬girl: no let me tell u about magic)

[personal profile] fuhrinkaed 2016-07-24 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
She took it really well! I thought the wrong thing, and she wouldn't tell me what the right thing was, but she also didn't punch me.

So, I owe ya' one! Thanks.
fuhrinkaed: (¬girl: eeeh)

[personal profile] fuhrinkaed 2016-07-24 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... apparently she wasn't an exhibitionist after all.

That was kind of embarrassing to realize. I could have sworn...
fuhrinkaed: (¬girl: oh my)

[personal profile] fuhrinkaed 2016-07-24 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
It wasn't that she wanted to wear it, it was that she wanted to wear it in front of me. But I was wrong, so... back to the drawing board.

Hey, this universe has pigs! Cool!

[ A twisted headband around his forehead, a white T-shirt soaked through with perspiration, and a thick band around his waist. That is the attire Kojirou has obtained for this day's farm work and it's very Carnival Phantasm. He has traded the Laundry Pole for a hoe that's currently resting over his shoulder as he looks over his handiwork, rather satisfied with the digging he's done so far. ]

Hard labour truly has a beauty of its own.

[ He nods rather dramatically, wiping sweat off his chin with the back of his free hand before turning to Hakuno. ]

If you're looking for seeds, they should be kept in the barn.
fuhrinkaed: (¬girl: huh?)

[personal profile] fuhrinkaed 2016-07-25 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
[...wow.]

[Hakuno really IS awesome. She knew what he was about to say, before he even said it!]

H-how did you know that I was going to think that?

I mean, she wants to surpass me, not like. Sexy swimsuit stuff with me.
fuhrinkaed: (¬girl: consideration)

[personal profile] fuhrinkaed 2016-07-25 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
[Understatement.]

Mm... I guess Cass was sort of a complicated person, too...

So you think that she might be interested in me beyond a friend and a goal... [He turns it over in his mind, working through it bit by bit.]

Hm... Maybe. [What an unusually succinct thing for him to say.]
fuhrinkaed: (¬girl: oh my)

[personal profile] fuhrinkaed 2016-07-25 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
Ahh... I try not to do that, but I guess I do get a little singleminded. [He laughs awkwardly.]

I-it's not like I think of it as an absolute truth, anyways. Honestly... something like that? I don't think it exists. My own path isn't the same as anyone else's--and their truths and mine aren't the same. Er--I think. Y'know?

[The museum is fascinating, and Lavi is glad that he decided to stop by. The couple of library books he's got tucked under one arm with tourism pamphlets of his own stuck in them like bookmarks are safely out of reach of the paper bag of fish and chips he's carrying around in his other hand.

He hears what Hakuno says, and stops, tilting his head at her.]
Hm? Oh-- hey, you learning about Gammon too?
fuhrinkaed: (¬girl: There is Sadness)

[personal profile] fuhrinkaed 2016-07-25 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
Ah.. S-sorry about that. I won't rule out anything as far as Susan's concerned.

That's my thinkin' too. I'd study up on this stuff for free, but it'll be nice to earn some money for my efforts.

[He hefts the bag of food and waves it around, like that explains everything.] S'fine, cause they're not touching. I'm a professional; there's gonna be no fish 'n chips evidence anywhere. That'd be pretty terrible of me.

But we gotta study to make the exhibit, yeah? It's all the same, in the end.

[How can anyone doubt his ability to eat and read at the same time? He waggles a few fingers at her, grinning.]

That's why I got two hands-- one to eat with, one to read with. Keeps the pages clean and my belly full, without causing any trouble or messy accidents. It's all about planning ahead, that's all.
