Comments

[guitarslaying]

[Congrats Kumatora. You've come across a pink-haired woman working on repairing her Vespa. With G.I. Joe figures shut up they don't sell any gundam figures. Haruko waves her wrench at Kumatora as she speaks.]

Whadda ya want whadda ya want I'm busy here.

[pkrincess]

[Priorities! Kumatora points at the Vespa.]

What is that?

[guitarslaying]

This?

This is my baby, built all from scratch, modeled after a Piaggio Vespa SS 180.

Pretty sweet, isn't she.

[pkrincess]

Is it alive?

[so_misfortunate]

[ Weird girls randomly getting in his face as he's walking down the street? Yeah, that's just Touma's luck, alright. ]

[ Leaning back a bit. ] ...uh, sure. What is it?

[pkrincess]

[She tilts her head a bit and scrunches her lips for a second or two. Sort of like she came up to him without actually thinking of a question ahead of time.]

You ever heard of Nowhere Islands?

[so_misfortunate]

[ Crap. Why does everyone start with the hard questions? Touma can't say for sure one way or the other, though nothing rings a bell it could be he should know of it but doesn't and...

Well, fortunately, he's skilled at bluffing. ] Asking about it won't do you any good. This is Mayfield, and it's all we'll get to see for a long, long time.

[pkrincess]

[So yes or no? Oh well. Different question.]

So how long have you lived here?

[arisawa]

[Don't look now, but there's a girl maybe a couple years older than you walking around aimlessly with bandaged knuckles. But you knew that, obviously.]

I'm a Pisces.

[...Aaaand she keeps walking.]

[pkrincess]

[Kumatora will try to grab her arm before she gets too far. Pisces? What, the kind of bracelet that you wear to get +7 defense?]

That's not what I'm askin' about. I don't really care about your equipment.

[arisawa]

[...Well, she's officially puzzled, but with the mood she's in, she's just gonna ignore the equipment thing.]

Whatever you wanna ask, I'm pretty sure I don't know the answer.

[pkrincess]

[She shrugs.]

How'd you hurt your hand?

[hintcoinplz]

[Leaning back and looking uncomfortable.]

C-can I help you?

[pkrincess]

[She steps back a little.]

Yeah, maybe. You know where I could get some better clothes? Y'know, ones that don't look like this?

[tapshoetomove]

Uhm, I think some of the residents here can make clothing. All the clothing shops I've been to pretty much carry the same thing.

[pkrincess]

D'you know any of the guys that make 'em?

[nosoul_nomind]

[Barton is indeed minding her own business at the park, playing fetch with a blue German Shepard. Yep, blue.

She does not like having her personal space suddenly invaded.] What.

[pkrincess]

[Kumatora does not seem particularly thrown by the color. She'll even smile at it if it notices her.]

What's your dog's name?

[nosoul_nomind]

Oh. Uh, it's Buster. Don't worry, he's real friendly. [Buster does look excited to see someone new, and is demanding attention.]

[pkrincess]

[Kumatora is happy to give it. She starts petting him and scratching him behind the ears.]

Is he your friend from home, or did you meet him here?
