Track 05: Small Town

[princeofjunes]

ACTION: EVERYWHERE - ALL DAY - EVERYONE

[As Yosuke's settled himself into Mayfield, he finds one question gnawing at the back of his head.

Is this place really that bad?

Sure, there's the dronings and the weird things that happen, but day to day everybody's able to go about their lives - maybe even find things to do that make them happy. They bring bits and pieces from home and make connections with other people. They can even meet people they never would have at home. Does the good the people make in this town outweigh the bad the town tries to bring them down with?

He's curious. Also, it's a great excuse to take a day off and wander around the town, so that's exactly what he does - he sets out and walks, with no destination in mind]

(( OOC NOTE: He's literally just walking around town today, meeting people, talking to people, whatever. In your reply just note where they're meeting; the park, a store, outside someone's house. It doesn't matter where, just give me a heads up. Thanks! <3 ))

"I'd be a bad waitress if I didn't ask."

[She sits him down gets a menu and waits]

[princeofjunes]

[Right, he has MONEY now! Awesome!]

I think I'll have another tea. And I'll pay you back from last time, too.

[forgottenshiki.livejournal.com]

It looks like you'll have a lot on your plate trying to please her.

[princeofjunes]

It's worth it. She seems like a good kid.

... god, now I even sound old. I need an intervention.

[forgottenshiki.livejournal.com]

Don't ask me, I'm just a kid who wouldn't understand your grown up issues.

[princeofjunes]

Yeah, just wait until you're eighteen with teenagers.

[forgottenshiki.livejournal.com]

I have a couple of months ahead of me yet.

[princeofjunes]

Sure, but before you know it you're waking up in bed next to a zombie that used to be Russia with two kids and wondering what the hell.

[forgottenshiki.livejournal.com]

Now you're just exaggerating things. I know this place is strong enough to bring in all sorts of beings, but there's no way it could drop a country here without crushing the whole town!

[princeofjunes]

Wait, seriously? You haven't heard about the country people?

[forgottenshiki.livejournal.com]

...Country people?

[princeofjunes]

... crap. I'm not the right guy to explain this - I've never met them, just heard about them.

They're people? But they're also countries. Something like that.

[She gets him another tea and bows]

"Would I be a bad hostess if I sat down with you? Its kind of quiet right now."

[forgottenshiki.livejournal.com]

I think I'd notice people shaped like countries.

[Or landmasses with legs, for that matter.]

[kinpika.livejournal.com]

I've got a lot of skills that people would call cheating.

[princeofjunes]

Bad? I'd be sad if you didn't, since I pretty much just come here to talk to you.

[princeofjunes]

No, they're not shaped like the country. They... represent the country? Or embody it?

Look, I'm not the one to ask. Do you know Ruri?

[princeofjunes]

So luck is a skill now? When did that happen? I thought it was just... luck.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

[She nods a little and sits down]

[princeofjunes]

So... done anything fun recently?

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Not really. Just work and study mostly."

[princeofjunes]

And swimming, right?

That was an awesome swimsuit, by the way.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"I enjoy water. I don't know why."

[She shrugs a little]

[princeofjunes]

Why not? It feels nice and a good swim can be refreshing.

[And girls in bikinis is just a plus]

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"I miss the onsen back home really. But it can be."
