One Fist [Action]

[powerfulbeauty]

[There seems to be someone new walking around the village today. Maybe it's obvious because she's still wearing white, or because nobody's seen her around before. Either way, it's a new face in a big crowd. A new, freakish face that looks like it's been zipped up in the middle.

She's keeping to herself, taking in the surroundings with an almost

[action] 1/??

[Someone's just got back from visiting Naoki and is currently picking up some things around town in preparation for making dinner, still in his training gi from earlier.]

[action]

[powerfulbeauty]

[Smartass, as usual. She's not surprised.]

You can take it and shove it. How long I've been here is none of your business.

[action]

[causeblocked]

Let me rephrase. I know you just got here, because it's written all over your face.

You want answers or not?

[action]

[powerfulbeauty]

Hmph. I dobut you'll have anything useful to say, but I guess I'll humor you for old times' sake.

[Huffiness aside, she's actually a little curious.]

[action]

[causeblocked]

Old time's sake, huh? I'm touched.

[He turns a bit, so that his wings are more visible.] I'm sure you noticed these, right?

[action]

[powerfulbeauty]

[Her eyes go straight to his wings, but she makes it a point to not stare.]

They're a bit hard to ignore.

[action]

[causeblocked]

Heh. It's something of a welcome gift. Everyone's got them.

[He holds up his journal.] This too.

[action]

[powerfulbeauty]

What a useless thing to have. They look pitiful.

[Her journal is tucked under her normal arm, and she gives a little shrug.] And just what is all this even for, anyway?

[action]

[causeblocked]

Yeah... I would have preferred a cell phone, personally. Open it up. [He opens his own and pulls out a pen, writing her a short, filtered message.]

Look, ma. No service bars.

[action]

[powerfulbeauty]

[She opens it, not really seeing what he's getting at until she notices the message. No hiding the surprise this time.]

...At least one of these things has a purpose.

[action]

[causeblocked]

Classy, right? And they didn't even have electricity until maybe a month ago, apparently.

[Did he mention you're stuck here? He means to. ...Eventually.]

[action]

[powerfulbeauty]

[No mention of that, but it's probably for the best. She seems to have let the fact they're having an almost normal conversation slip her mind at the moment.]

This world has existed for a while, then?

[action] - gonna be gone most of the day, just fyi

[causeblocked]

Who knows, man. It's not exactly your typical place.

[action] - alright. won't be able to tag tomorrow.

[powerfulbeauty]

I don't think a 'typical' place can exist anymore. It's dead, or filled with weaklings, or just confusing. Never 'typical.'

[action]

[causeblocked]

Heh... Maybe you're right. It does try, though.

So, uh... what are your plans?
