[ WEEK SIX ]

[sheriffexe]

WEEK SIX

CURRENT POPULATION: 14 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.

Um... well. What makes you not want to throw it away?

[ she remembers seeing xion hanging around hal's porch often, back in the beginning. ]

... I guess I feel bad. He made this for me. It took him a while. He said he thought I'd really use it. But ... now I just kind of want to burn it. That's probably terrible, huh...?

[ she has not been able to forget the sound of his laugh as Seizaburo died in her arms. ]

[flippity]

Not really! [ she says it pretty bluntly. ]

He did something nice for you, but... I don't think that makes up for all the bad stuff. You shouldn't force yourself to hold onto something that's now more bad memories than good, I think.

[ceded]

[ .... ]

You're right, [ she says, with some relief and a faint, crooked smile. ] But ... I'm not forcing myself. Maybe it's just too pretty to burn? I don't know. [ A sheepish laugh. ] I guess it's pretty obvious I haven't been able to make up my mind.

[flippity]

Then... keep thinking about it, I guess.

[ she glances back at the flute. ] You'll probably eventually know what you want to do with it.

[ceded]

Mhm. I'll figure it out. I brought it with me to think about it, actually.

[ She ends up holding onto it, not setting it back down on the ground. ]

So, what brings you here, Papika?

[ Xion can make a guess, but, honestly, there are just so many graves one could visit, now. ]

[flippity]

I wanted to leave Sara some flowers. To thank her.

[ she glances at the grave xion's at. ]

I don't come here very often.

[ceded]

... this is the first time I've been here in a while. The last time I was here, it was to leave flowers, too. For Riku, and Annabeth.

[ So -- it was a bit of a joint venture with Percy. ]

But I can't really make it up to the homestead anymore to pick flowers. [ Still, she tries to smile at Papika. ] That was nice of you to do, though. I'm sure she'll appreciate it.

[flippity]

I hope so. I'm not sure what else to give her...

[ beating the game, probably. but she decides not to say that. ]

Who did you come here to see?

[ceded]

Seizaburo. [ That's the grave she's sitting in front of right now. ] Yuna, too. I can't get flowers, so ... I've been leaving little drawings, instead. [ And those would be the slips of paper she's placed on a handful of graves. It's there in front of her, on Seizaburo's. ] It's not much, but it's all I could think of to do.

[flippity]

I think it's enough. They definitely appreciate it, Xion. And whenever you see them again, it'll be nice.

[ although that DEFINITELY won't be any time SOON ha ha ha fuck u pip ]
