ITP: Claiming first in the name of horrible roommates

[little_miss_snarker]

[After a few false starts there's eventually a clear video of a young girl who looks very frazzled and annoyed as she figures out how to hold the mirror to make her post.]

Hey, does anyone mind if I crash on their couch tonight? Apparently one of my roommates is a psycho fishperson with territory issues who keeps threatening me with a trident.

[she has no idea what she should be saying either. So the pair stay like that for a while, leaning against each other, until the guard comes in and says that this is as long as they're allowed. The pair of them have to go. The guard glances through Haruki's box to make sure he didn't take anything dangerous and declares it fine he takes his things before ushering them out.

Kyon feels like her stomach has turned to lead as she gets up and once they're outside, to her shock, she's the one who suggests:]

You want to walk around and explore a bit?

[Because all she really has to go back to is the couch of a person she barely knows after getting kicked out what is supposed to be the apartment meant for her. Between that and spending time with someone she's known for a while, she'll take what she can get.]

[On one hand, he probably should go back to Estelle. Or look through the contents of that box again... or lament his fate, what does he know. But it's her. He looks up at the "night" sky - haha, "night, underground" and then at one of the streetlights near them.

For all he knows, it could be dangerous here after dark.

He had encountered one of those Unversed a few days ago, after all. But... it's her]

Yeah, I'd like that. [Not boisterous enough. He looks at the street light again, exhales, and runs a hand on the back of his neck (this draws attention, unintentionally, again to the barcode there] I mean, it's a new world! We ought to make some headway in seeing all of this city at least!

[It hasn't even occurred to her how dangerous it could be. After being threatened with troll-boy's bident, she doesn't think anyone else could try anything and the general shellshock of today is only now starting to subside. She's stuck far from home and Haruki-after-Luceti is here. She'll have to deal with it.]

Maybe some of the festival's stalls are still open? I don't think it's past midnight yet.

[deusexhormones]

And if we see a cheap watch, I'm getting that.

[And I know I said we'd continue this but you're sick anyway so AND SO THEY WENT TO EXPLORE THE FESTIVAL UNTIL IT ACTUALLY STRUCK MIDNIGHT. IT WAS AN ADVENTURE]
