010 Omens of Crusnik

[A: Elementary School (OPEN)]

[What is that sound floating out over the playground at lunch? It's piano music, just basic tunes being repeated over and over again from the open window of the music room. Cain has retired there to study the books that Charles gave him, tireless in his pursuit of being the very best at whatever task was set to him.

Every time he makes a mistake, he repeats that part of the piece over and over again until it's flawless. Anyone at all is free to hear his attempts or tell him to shut up.]


[B: Around Town (OPEN)]

[Tis the season, and all that... It's Cain's first Christmas where he'll actually get to celebrate, instead of watching all the colonists exchange presents while never being part of it himself. He's been saving all the pocket money that his drone not!mother had been giving him (until she got replaced yesterday), as well as the money he got for doing odd-jobs for his friends. So now he's out and about shopping for gifts.

Do you work in any of the stores? Then this blond haired boy might just be peering over the counter with a bright smile. Are you wandering down the street aimlessly? Feel free to bump into Cain as he carries a stack of boxes too high to see over... because clearly that's just asking for trouble.]


[C: Phone (OPEN)]

[Did you order a rousing pep talk by a ten year old today, Mayfield? No... shame, because it's coming anyway.]

Christmas is coming soon... Maybe you celebrate something else in your world, or maybe you don't celebrate anything at all, but here... I think they'll have Christmas. I don't know if anything will happen, but...

Even if it does, and even if it hurts us, we can't let it break us. We have to keep our eyes forward, and we have to stick together. As long as we look out for each other, then we can change the future to whatever we want.

[D: Home (Locked to Housemates)]

[It seemed like he was the first one home, which was a little odd after the drone!Esther housewife who had always been there to welcome him in and tell him to do his homework before dinner. Which, consequently, led to the thought that there was no dinner... Astha didn't seem the type to make a meal for the family based on what he had seen, Rachel had already shown she believed cooking beneath her, and he didn't want to die so Abel was out.

Therefore, whenever anyone else gets home, they might find the youngest non-drone member of the household stood on a chair by the stove. He's pouring over one of the recipes Esther had left behind, not being allowed to go and find any more of his own, and is carefully adding things to a big bubbling pot.]

Precisely. So, with that said, you should try to enjoy as much as you can. It's all one can do in a place like this, wouldn't you agree?

( ( N-no denying it. The man loves his bicycle. ) )

Why did you need lozenges? Ay, have you been ill? . . . Are you still sick? You can go home if you are, you know.

That's a good way of thinking of things! I like that.

it's like we're starcrossed taggers

( ( There's a relieved smile, ) )

So you're better now? Good, the last thing you'd want to happen is to get sick in this town.

Marginally. I think I'm adapting well enough though.

B!

[It's late afternoon in uptown when she'll cross Cain on the streets, carrying a plastic bag herself of assorted supplies like rags, sponges, a box of... tea? and various other goods. In contrast to the last time however, she's not wearing her glasses, and dressed in her habit.]

Oh, good afternoon, Cain! --Ah, that's... a lot that you're carrying. Do you need help?

Good luck with it then. God knows you'll need it in this town.

Hard to enjoy anything when there's no power or supplies.
eveningcalm: (I accidentally had sex with my boyfriend)

You're one of those irritatingly optimistic types, aren't you?

[It was originally supposed to be a double life thing, not gonna deny that. There's just no point in trying to hide here, so she dropped the facade. It's how she is at the Church anyway on a normal day, and how she met his younger brother when he first came by the Church to check things out.]

Of course not! I know I'm carrying things myself, but not nearly as much, and I'm taller and stronger than you. Are you headed home, or is there somewhere else that you still need to stop by?
eveningcalm: (What made you think it was a good)

Not everything is rainbows and sunshine. Thinking as such is deluded.
