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!
After all, there's nothing wrong with the town today and you might just want to savor it while it lasts.
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 robowest.
[She chuckles. Sei remembers what it was like to be the one having her butt handed to her in practice - but she's worked hard to get to where she is. Or... was. Regardless, it's something she's proud of.]
I think you'll continue working well together. [Annabeth's dead, but... if those letters are any indication, in this place, death isn't the end.] We just have to make sure that someone good makes it to the end, right? If the Sheriff plays by his own rules, you'll be fighting together again before you know it.
[Sei believes in that. She has to, because the alternative is just too sad.]
...oh, but the bushido... I guess the simplest way to explain it is that it's an honor code? It governs the way the ideal man is supposed to behave so that we don't bring shame to ourselves or our comrades.
You'd really be willing to help me? That would be great!
[A half-smile.] Annabeth's already trying on her end. I gotta pick up the slack. [There's a nod.] We'll figure it out together and get everybody back to where they should be, don't worry.
[He lifts an eyebrow.] Can't honor codes change though? I thought those kind of things weren't really set in stone. [He nods though.] I mean I can't promise not to embarrass myself or anything, but I can probably run some drills with you anyway, why not? Annabeth and I spend most of our time training at Camp anyway. [When they aren't on romantic dates in hell, apparently.]
Wonderful! If there's anything I can do to assist you, please let me know.
[It's a good thing that it seems like most of the people here are more or less on the same page. Sei can't say she's entirely at ease with the idea of her fate and everyone else's being in just one pair of hands, but...
Well, it will all work out somehow.]
I don't know, the bushido seems pretty timeless to me... but from what I've heard here, it seems like there are other honor codes in other parts of the world. I'd be pretty interested to see how they compare! [She grins.] And, don't worry! You have two legs, so you're already much less likely to embarrass yourself than I am. I'd be honored to practice with you.
Unique is just another word for effective, in my experience! I'd love to learn from you.
[She grins widely, then thinks about it for a few moments before deciding.]
Does Wednesday evening work for you? I know it's a little unconventional, but there will probably be fewer people out at that time, and to be honest... I've been having a little trouble sleeping. A good workout before bed might help us both!
[Of course, that won't happen because lol, stampedes. Hey, maybe she was on her way to meet him wen she got trampled!]
Then you've got a deal. Wednesday evening it is. [I'm still gonna kick your ass.] Before it gets too dark, you know? I'm not sure being out in the dark is a good idea for any of us right now but I think I can understand that. [Not like he's sleeping well since Annabeth died. And now there's a deer stampede which doesn't help!]
I'll meet you Wednesday then. Try to stay out of trouble until then, okay?

[This thread is even worse now, Britt, thanks a lot!!!]
I'm not even really sure what our honor code is or even if we have one. Our style of fighting is a little...[Unorganized? Chaotic? Messy?]...unique.
Come find me when you want then. My schedule's pretty open and we'll go from there.
