ITP: A questing we will go~
Characters: Kyonko and
Date: 10/30
Format: Whichever
Content Warnings: None at the moment.
Summary: Haruki drags Kyonko onto this quest
'Ever felt like you're being.... watched? As cliche as that line is that's what I can't help feeling almost twenty-four-seven since these balls of light came into play. Oh sure, it's easy to think you have an annoying fairy following you around but the dead silence is what tips me of to what that Yakisha woman said they're really for: surveillance. These people who brought us here now think it was us Outsiders who were involved with the attack.
I honestly thought they would have known the attack would happen after we told the officials what happened with Id’rakras and her mother's agreement with the former Speaker. We told them everything we knew. Or, at least, Haruki did.
Didn't he?'
With this thought in mind, Kyon swept out the front of the Mudcap, grateful her cleaning duty for the day was only that and not trying to put fresh water in the "moist" section of the coffee shop for its Huglu patrons. The time since the attack had been rough, with Kyonko going quiet whenever she saw the damage to the buildings and how people were still trying to find loved ones. Many natives had been displaced and she had no idea what that would mean in the long run. Space in the cave system wasn't exactly a commodity and--
--and she stopped that train of thought where it started. It had nothing to do with her. Kyon just had to keep her head down, stay out of trouble, and look for Haruki, right? That's all. She shouldn't start worrying about the people here, even if she'd helped people evacuate.
Even if she's pretty sure she's starting to care. The ball of light following her got on her nerves, made her anxious. Even if Yakisha said no one was watching she constantly got the feeling she was and often tried to cover it with a blanket while she changed clothes or bathed. Except the blanket always slid off and she'd find herself paranoid about if someone on the other end of the ball saw something, anything, at all.
Her shoulders hunched at that thought and she glanced over her shoulder at it before continuing her sweeping in double time. Just five more minutes left of her shift, then she could make some kind of attempt at avoiding this thing again.

See, he'd actually gone a different route. Since Yakisha had made her announcement he'd been studying and waiting. Becoming an expert and trying to think of ho to be presentable. Doing odd jobs. The thing is, he's also out of money and technically in possession of illegally duplicated files. But.
He found a way to make money and to address another concern he'd had and-]
Oi, oi! Is Kyonko's shift over yet?
no subject
[Kyonko rolls her eyes and calls from where she's sweeping and pokes her head in the door, a look that screams "really?" on her face.]
Five minutes, Haruki. Give me five minutes.
[Seriously, he ran right past her. Couldn't he at least ask her in person? :|]
no subject
[And... because he doesn't want to sit around for five minutes, he's going to go and chat up one of her coworkers]
no subject
[And that's when Darla speaks up and says it's fine. It's not like Johnson can't do the cleaning for once. And all the change he finds goes in the cash register, not the basement.]
....let me change out of my uniform.
[Which takes another five minutes then she's ready to go.]
What it is this time?
no subject
There's a quest we're going to fulfill.
no subject
What kind of quest? [Can you feel the skepticism in her voice, Haruki?]
no subject
no subject
[Unfortunately he chooses then to march off leaving her to, as usual, dash to catch up. Curse you, Haruki, and your much longer legs! o9]
no subject
[Even if he still is waiting on that meeting with the new Speaker. He says this as he's marching, not really giving a care for making sure if she's keeping up or not. He just assumes she is]
no subject
'He honestly thinks there isn't some kind of government conspiracy involved here?'
Like what sort of problems with the government? 'Remind me to start paying attention more around here.'
no subject
no subject
Well, yeah, it isn't efficient. We only have limited resources here and I don't think they had the human body in mind when they came up with it.
no subject
no subject
You're actually worried about matters of the Government? [She's actually giving him an incredulous look.]
I guess it would have issues seeing as they're changing over Speakers. Hopefully this won't turn into even more of a bad anime and that Yakisha lady turns out to be corrupt. 'Tinkerbell floating around us twenty-four-seven does not give me any high hopes, however.'
no subject
no subject
There's a difference?
no subject

'Or whatever kind of mob it was in the Godfather.'

I think we're supposed to take a left.
no subject
[He slips out of the Japanese on accident, looking again at his map. Had she researched this quest before?]
no subject
I've been reading the Quest Board lately. 'In hopes of finding something simple to do for the sake of having something to do.'
And I do errands for Mr. Devereaux, too. New girl is the gofer and all that. So I know the area pretty well.
no subject
[And he goes to fold up the map now]
