Date: September 17th
Format: Preferably action spam, but I'll match what you tag with!
Content Warnings: Possible vague references to some gorey acts, but other than that nothing.
Summary: Even without any desire to do anything or even live, Shiki can't really stay in one place forever.

[It's a bright, sunny day when Shiki finally steps out her assigned room and into the actual city. She'd spent the last while trying to get used to walking around without her sight in her room, but frankly, there were some things she needed that she just couldn't get in that place.

Like a decent kimono for one. You'd have to be crazy to think she'd keep wearing the hospital given one. Of course, the only problem was... y'know, getting to an actual store. Rather than wander aimlessly about, Shiki decided to take a seat at whatever sort of seating area was close by. She listens for footsteps and when people pass by. When it sounds like someone's close enough...]

Hey. You over there. [Yep, the girl with bandages wrapped around her eyes is calling out to you. Nothing strange about this at all.]

Yeah! Sort of like a scavenger hunt, or like you're competing with someone else to find the best prices.

Competing to find clothes... It feels like a bit much.

It's not like it's a real competition. Just something for fun!

Fun. Right. [said so flatly she might as well have just said WHAT IS FUN??]

I'm sorry, is that something you don't do? [she sounds more amused than penitent, though. YOU REMIND HER OF A FRIEND]

I guess I don't. [What did she have fun doing... Her memories are still a bit fuzzy from everything but yeah she is honestly pretty sure she didn't have fun SCREAMS.]

You should definitely try it some time! It won't kill you and you might even like it. [sobbing why is everyone she meets so fun deficient]

[It's just her luck to meet people like this...] I think I can live without it.

Just beclaws you can live without something doesn't mean that you should. [because if that were true then Equius would never have come out of the ocean and that's just unacceptable]

... beclaws? [Wait no that's not the point.] It doesn't seem that important honestly.

It is! At least, I think so. [no need to be pushy, after all] It makes other things easier to do.

Really? Like what? [She's... genuinely curious it's kind of sad.]

Practically everything! Doing work, avoiding being bored, making friends...

[don't worry girl, she's used to this. one of her best friends literally never leaves his house.]

Doing some kind of work by itself sounds like it would be the easiest thing to do.

If it's the type you enjoy, maybe. But fun helps hurry along the stuff that's tedious.

So how would you have fun while doing work?

Make it a challenge for yourself! Or make up a big pretend scenario so that whatever you're doing becomes way more interesting.

That just sounds like you would be distracting yourself.

Not if you do it right! Although that's definitely a clawsibility if you're just looking for a way to put off whatever you're doing.

... you know, you talk kind of weird. [She can't get over this man.]

Do I? [she tilts her head a little] I've always spoken like this, so I guess if I do I've never noticed it. Nobody's mentioned it to me before.

This is the first time I've ever heard anyone talk like this.

Huh. I guess that clawsibly people only talk like this from my world, then!
