koolaids this up; anywhere anytime

[ milk, check. cigarettes, check. food, check. pudding, check.

shizuo looks down at the list thoughtfully for some more, frowning slightly. he was just about done here, right? it wasn't like there was anything really he needed in particular apart from that ... it was kind of nice for them to give them money to spend, but at the same time, it really wasn't worth sticking around for, all in all. ]

Right, so ...

[ what next? he didn't have anything in particular to do until evening when dokuganryu woke up, so all he really needed was something to kill a few hours with.

the shopping bags dangling from his wrist, shizuo shoved his hands into the pockets of his trousers and swept his gaze around the surroundings. maybe he should go buy a new shirt or two ... ]

lmao, sorry for the tl;dr. (1/2)

[heartnotation]

[ he said so himself: he's the type of person who would always find the chance to leave the indoors and have fun outside where more fun can be had. today, he just needed a distraction and staying inside, despite how Sawako was likely to be there with him, didn't sit too well with him. it seems that the distant dreams he has been having became more frequent than he had expected. and, it's becoming a slight annoyance to him because it has never failed to send chills down his spine whenever he woke up in the morning. he was quite sure he heard screams of terror when he dreamed

[heartnotation]

[ approaches! yes, with the dress, whoops. ]

You're the person I've spoken to the other day. Good afternoon!

AAH no it's okay sorry for the short tag ;n;

[crashdives]

Aah?

[ shizuo looks up from examining the row of near-identical shirts, not really expecting it to be addressed to him -- maybe a shop assistant? he didn't really need help though .... he frowns slightly upon finding himself looking at a face that was somehow familiar, though not because he is annoyed at having met someone; it's more because he couldn't place a name on it for sure. ]

Um, good afternoon. . .

[ he turns around fully to face the other, squinting slightly behind the sunglasses as he continues to peer at kazehaya.

nope, not getting it. ]

Sorry, do I know you?

no worries! quantity doesn't matter. :B

[heartnotation]

[ Kazehaya notes that frown. did he make him angry already? then again, he didn't want to make any assumptions. after all, even though he was yelling to the network last time, he had found that he was actually a friendly guy. ]

Ahaha, sorry. I've never did introduce myself, did I? [ so, he expected a response like that. ] I'm Shouta Kazehaya! We've spoken about your anteater through the device. [ well, it still feels weird to call it an anteater since he's sure it's not that. ]

[crashdives]

Ah, yeah ...

[ he remembers now; it's that guy who asked if he was boring, right? he didn't seem like too bad a guy ... nice and friendly.

his expression smoothes out a little with the realisation, though he still doesn't look entirely comfortable; no worries, that's just how he is. ]

Heiwajima Shizuo.

[ and, you know, he doesn't mean to pry or anything, but if he isn't mistaken, this guy is holding a dress. ]

. . . What's that for?

[heartnotation]

[ since he's an adult: "Heiwajima-san, then"! he was going to say that out loud, but: ]

Huh? [ o...h, right, he forgot to put the dress down before running off to talk to him. ]

I thought of someone when I saw it, so I was wondering if I should get it for her. [ ... ] I probably shouldn't, though! I don't even know her size.

[ then again, he can probably guess. ]

[crashdives]

[ here's hoping that he isn't into weird crossdressing habits ... ]

[ but anyway, it's good to hear that it's not for himself; he'd have been kind of worried there ... though what people do with their free time wasn't his concern really. ]

It looks-

[ there's a small pause, apparently searching for the right word. ]

- nice.

[heartnotation]

You think so? [ he takes one last look at the dress before putting it back where he found it instead of saying something mushy like, "I think it'd look even nicer on her". there's no need to be sappy to an acquaintance!

once he had returned to Shizuo's side, that's when he realized that maybe he interrupted him from what he was doing before their conversation began. ]

Sorry, I must be taking up a lot of your time. Were you headed anywhere, though?

[crashdives]

Yeah ... I like it.

[ though, he isn't really the expert when it came to girls' clothes and shopping in general, so don't take his word for it. it was really kind of nice though, for this weather they were having. now if he only knew a girl well enough to get something for her ... huh? ]

Ah? Um, no, not really ... I'm just killing time.

[heartnotation]

[ he wasn't really in a hurry to return home. after all, he was just wandering around the marketplace since it beats being indoors for a long period of time. he's aware Shizuo is an adult, but maybe he wouldn't mind having him around a little longer - that is, if he didn't mind teenagers.

he's nothing like Pin, at least. that's always a plus. ]

Why don't I join you, Heiwajima-san?

[crashdives]

Aah?

Um, if you want to ... that's fine with me.

[ if anything, he sounds surprised ... apart from the odd people every now and then, shizuo was pretty much used to spending his days alone here. after all, who'd really want to hang out with a guy like him, anyway? ]

[heartnotation]

[ :B oh, yay, he's happy to receive such a response. ]

Thank you for allowing me to tag along!

[ hopefully, he wouldn't be seen as a bother. he was pretty sure Shizuo was older than him by quite a bit. not that it mattered to him, but. ]

Were you shopping for supplies for the anteater?

[crashdives]

No, it's alright ... I wasn't doing much anyway.

[ seriously, it's ... really quite odd, having someone who is actually happy about spending time with him. but then, it wasn't like anyone here actually knew what kind of a person he was, was it?

but really, that's what was so scary about it, more than hanging out with some complete (near) stranger who didn't know a thing about him.

let's hope that he won't run into izaya today ... ]

Sort of ... he's alright though.

[heartnotation]

[ all this time, he still didn't know the anteater's name which was pretty sad. he should have asked during their first conversation, but it sort of slipped his mind. ]

I never did catch his name, did I?

[crashdives]

He's called Dokuganryu.

[ like that's the most common, conventional name in the world, shizuo's expression doesn't even change as he answers. ]
