robowest | [ WEEK ONE ]

WEEK ONE

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!

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

[Yuna sets down her work almost right away, and her smile fades when she looks up at Ana but her determination doesn't. Ana's taking her seriously—she notices this first. She isn't the first one to critique Yuna's decision but even concern for her so often comes with dismissal, with doubt. Her usual ditzy display doesn't always inspire confidence, so Yuna can't exactly blame anyone for that, but Ana takes her seriously. Yuna can't tell Ana about the Sanshu Middle School Hero Club's true purpose or what she's been through, but Ana deserves an answer of equal weight.

So Yuna meets Ana's gaze, and she beams.]

Thank you, Miss Ana. [First, the important stuff.] For worrying about me, but also for understanding.

[She brings her hands to her heart, using the moment it takes to consider what it is she wants to say.]

I understand that I'm still really young, and I still have a lot to learn about things like this, about being a hero, and about everything else there is to learn stuff about. But I promise, even if I can't completely predict what I'm getting into, I have a better idea than a lot of people probably think I do. I understand if you can't, but I have to ask you to trust me on that.

Even if I'm scared or hurt, I want to help people. I know that being a hero means never backing down, so I'm not going to, no matter how difficult or painful things get. If I fail at something, I'll try again. If it doesn't work, I'll try harder. Even if I'm not prepared for everything that's going to happen here, I'm prepared to get back up again every time I need to. I swear it.

[She lowers her hands, folding them neatly in front of her, and tilts her head just so.]

I know this is what I want to do, so I'm going to give it my all. Thank you for believing in me.

I believe you.

[That sort of determination and zeal is both admirable and dangerous. Very dangerous. It reminds her of her daughter, who grew up surrounded by heroes and dreamed of the day she would join their ranks. The thought pains her a little.

Ana nods, not really at Yuna or anything in particular. It's moreso accepting what's been said and mulling it over in her head. This is about what she was expecting to hear, though still she finds herself surprised. It's doubtful that this girl is quite so capable but Ana still finds herself more inclined to believe her than not. From the start she wasn't going to stop her from doing this and she's not about to now. It's up to Yuna to make her own mistakes. Even life-threatening ones.

Still, that isn't going to stop her from taking some sort of action. Ana always looks out for friends, family and the innocent before anything and fuck if she's going to let Yuna go out on her own.]

If that's the case then let me join you. I've got a fair more experience than you and.. well it's best we heroes stick together.
