[ WEEK TWO ]

WEEK TWO

CURRENT POPULATION: 40

It's a rather quaint town when you get down to it. At least, that's what the Sheriff would argue. Warm and dry in the mornings and afternoons with a brisk coolness in the evenings. The perfect type of weather to just sit out on your rocking chair and observe the comings and goings.

... Of course, there's not much in the way of comings and goings when there aren't any actual people here to watch. Nevertheless, don't let that get you down! The town is your oyster and those roosters won't stop crowing until everyone's out of bed. Up and at 'em, rise and shine, it's time to make the day yours!

Except there is, perhaps, a few things amiss.



This post functions as the general mingle post for the week. Wanted Posters and other small events will be posted in top levels below. If there's any questions or requests, please send a PM or shoot a PP to [plurk.com profile] robowest.

[there's silence as she contemplates vandalism for just a few more moments, before she shakes her head]

Eventually, perhaps. But not now.

[ Xion considers for a moment, too. And then: ]

I'll help you.

[ A small smile. ]

It'll be easier with two people, and if you get in trouble, you won't be alone.

[pauses thoughtfully as she gives Xion a once-over]

Are you afraid of risk?

[because she isn't against accepting help, of course!! and she assumes Xion's willing to face the risk herself just by her volunteering. but she also wanted to be absolutely sure. just in case]

No.

[ It's the immediate answer, and it's also honest. ]

I'm like you. I've had to take risks... to do what needed to be done. [ She huffs a sigh, and tries to smile. ] Don't worry. I'll be okay!

[a trait Milla can admire in people. she smiles, and nods firmly]

Then I'll gladly accept your help, when the time comes. The only reason I'm refraining from breaking the windows now is because I'm unarmed.

[turns her hip in Xion's direction to show. . . well. no sword!! not that her intention is obvious just form her movements]

That's understandable. [ Said a little sheepishly. She actually does notice the lack of sword, smiling a little when Milla turns to her. Then she bucks up, looking fierce and ready!! to fight!! ]

Okay! We'll take it on together. Whenever you're ready!

Of course. Although. . . [a pause] I have to admit, I don't know when that'll be. It isn't as though replacement weapons are just lying around, waiting to be claimed.

[and she has NO IDEA how to use that. . . pistol. . . the Sheriff gave them. she knows Alvin had a weapon similar to it back home, but she isn't Alvin. she likes blades, not firearms]

Hm... we'd need something that can break glass, right? What about one of the shovels? We could check the general store, too.

[ Xion ... thinks she could figure out the pistol, but has made a point of not touching it since they arrived. They'll find some other way.... ]

I know for a fact there are shovels in the graveyard.

[thanks to, uh. last week's investigation]

But it's wise to check the general store for items that could help us, too.

Uh huh. I went there last week, but not really this week. Maybe I should go again... [ A beat, and: ] Would you like to come with me, when I do?

[places her hands on her hips and lifts her chin, pleased]

Of course. I go there every morning to get breakfast. Have you heard of the sugary and carbohydrate-filled breakfast food known as "cereal?"

H-Huh?

[ Are there other people here ... who don't know things that are considered "normal"?! ]

I ... I think so. I've never had it, though.

[you have met one of your kindred, Xion]

Neither had I, until I came here. It's good! And very convenient. I heard you can eat it with milk.

[ ... /sparkle ]

I want to try it! It sounds cool. Does it taste good?

[personal profile] thatsthespirit 2017-02-02 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
Why don't you try it for yourself and see? We can go to the store now and get you a box.

R-Really? Yeah! Okay, let's go! [ She beams at Milla, thoroughly cheered. ] I can't wait to see what it's like.

I think you'll enjoy it. Some "cereals" are sweeter than others. I prefer the flaky ones with a light sprinkling of sugar and real fruits mixed within.

["real" fruit. anyway, they're off to the general store!]
