[Okay, so this one has been watching the journals, and honestly finding everything absolutely hilarious to watch and is happily not affected. Still, that doesn't mean he can't cause a bit of mischief, though he actually has an interesting intent on this and may well take his own advice later, he can always pretend he's affected for a bit. So just

[ Renji has made the mistake of following another order that forced him out of his house today, and now, walking home, sees the sign.

The only thing that he has time to think before his ribcage clenches tight around his heart is "Oh fuck". The person who qualifies in his life is not in Luceti; he's just going to have a chest ache thinking about it till the end of the event. Not that he hasn't been thinking about telling her for 100 years.

He very suddenly feels the need to enter the bar and order a stiff drink, so that's what he does instead. ]

[Sucks, doesn't it? His arrived last week, so he's taking advantage of this strange event to deal with something.]

[He's already got a drink in hand and has been sipping at it. He spots the person he doesn't know walk in.]

Hiding away from these weird signs too?

[ He lets out a loud breath through puffed cheeks and raised eyebrows; somehow this is an acknowledgment. ] Fuck, they're doin' some real damage, ain't they? [ And he's got his drink, hurray! ]

Sure are. Interesting to see the results of them.

You might want to stay away from the clothing shop if you haven't been there yet.

Interesting, yeah. Sometimes they make you wanna hit someone with somethin' heavy, but yeah, interesting.

Hmm? Sure, I will. [ Yeah, he's had a bad couple of days. ] S'pose I don't wanna know what's up in their window, then, eh?

[He chuckles a bit] Whatever works I guess.

You probably don't. It involves hugging and kissing.

[Action] jhkdfg wrong icon on the last tag, sorry D:

[inuzuri]

[ He slouches over on his crossed arms on the bar and groans. ] Oh jeez, that's almost worse! [ He sits back up and laughs once - it sounds like a dog bark. He can only imagine being told to give his captain a giant hug and kiss. ]

[Action] It happens :)

[arrogant_mage]

[And Rune takes another sip of his drink. Yeah, he's kinda glad to not be affected just for that sign.] It all depends on who it was, I guess. I'm glad I wasn't with a friend of mine, she'd have punched me.

Hah! There're a couple of those kinda girls here, ain't there? [ He gives a tongue click and drinks. ] It'd've probably been my captain, for me - probably wouldn't've survived that experience. [ He gives a lopsided grin. ]

[arrogant_mage]

There sure are. I live with one. Seems like there are a lot of interesting sorts of people here.

[inuzuri]

Oh, ya do? Fuck, that's gotta be a bitch sometimes, eh? [ Swig. ]

Heh, yeah. We sure make a weird-ass menagerie.

[arrogant_mage]

[Weird ass menagerie? Interesting way of putting things, and that actually made Rune smile.] I like your way of wording things.

[ His eyebrows go up, but he smiles lopsidedly. ] Hah, thanks - guess it just comes naturally. And here I'm always told my vocabulary's shit. [ A laugh sits easily behind his eyes but doesn't emerge. ]

[And dang, Renji so just said the right thing to completely endear himself to Rune.] What do fancy words really matter? I never was one for formal stuff anyhow, hate it with a passion.

And you know, I don't think we ever introduced ourselves, did we? I'm Rune Walsh.

Hah. 'M Renji Abarai, Lieutenant 6th Division. [ Automatic rank-giving for the win? ]

[Of course, just shows he's a good soldier] It's good to meet you. I would guess that means you are indeed a soldier in your world. Closest I came to that was traveling with a few hunters for some years.
