[ 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 robowest.

Well, not so much now that I'm older.

[ Younger? Probably. ]

[robitussin]

Ah. Your wild and reckless teenage years, huh?

[alcobrawlic]

[ There's a pause, before her lips quirk slightly. ]

Yeah. Something like that.

[robitussin]

[She finishes the song and turns towards Sara, finally giving the woman her attention.]

Sounds like a story. Care to share?

[alcobrawlic]

Does anyone ever really feel like talking about their deep dark pasts?

[ She's just making a face. ]

[robitussin]

I feel like we've cycled back to the whole five more drinks point.

[A shrug.]

Anyways, if you knew about music secondhand through your friend... Can't promise I'd know it, but you got any requests?

[alcobrawlic]

Do you know... [ hmmm. ] The Whereabouts of Light?

[robitussin]

Can't say I do, sorry.

[A shrug.]

If you tell me what mood it's going for, though, I can probably play something that's at least similar.

[alcobrawlic]

It's... kinda slow and sad? Really pretty, though.

[robitussin]

Slow and sad... [She pauses for a moment to think about that before nodding to herself.] Okay, got it.

[She shifts a little, moving so she's poised over the piano again, before she starts to play.]

[alcobrawlic]

[ ... Well, it's not quite the same, but the feel is really similar, honestly. It's slow and peaceful, and Sara can appreciate that, closing her eyes. ]

[robitussin]

[After a minute or two of playing, not taking her eyes off the keys:]

Acceptable substitute, I'm guessing?

[alcobrawlic]

Yep, I'll take it!

And just how long have you been playing?

[robitussin]

Since I was a kid. I want to say I was six or seven when I started, maybe?

[alcobrawlic]

Not bad! So you've been playing it, for like... what, ten or so years?

[robitussin]

Yeah, I guess. I was a few months from my seventeenth birthday, so it must've been around that long.

[A shrug.]

What about you? What did you do in your free time back home?

[alcobrawlic]

What free time? If I had any kind of time, I usually just slept in.

[robitussin]

[She glances up for a moment, curious.]

Yeah? What kept you so busy?

[alcobrawlic]

Traveling and teaching.

[ Not a lie. ]
