∞ 83: A chronicle of life and death [action]

[chikaidestroyer]

[What a wonderful afternoon. The sun is shining, the sky has cleared up, and the ground is drying after two days of rain. And Albert is around the village today, weaving through the streets and between houses and even to the edges of the forest.

Little do people know that Albert received a beautiful flower last night, and he happened to smell it. When he awoke up the morning, getting out of his room proved to be an ... arduous battle. And getting out the front door? Well, he had at least discovered what a doorknob was by then.

He has a vague, wondrous look on his face as he looks at swaying tree branches and flowers he would have otherwise ignored. His hair is in slight disarray, as if he had rolled out of bed and fought his way through a bedroom door. His clothes are in a similar state, and notably the same as the ones he had been wearing last night.

This isn't strange at all.

He will be wandering around for the entire afternoon. Attempts to talk to or capture the 6'1" strategist will be bizarre. ...And he won't be returned home until sunset or so.]

Must be fun to be you. [He pauses to let out a quiet yawn.] But I guess not everyone knows how to get rid of them, either.

I see... you certainly seem like you'd have more than your fair share of stories to tell, of your experiences.

[Just a few more adjustments now. Then Raine glances up toward Ginko, then toward Caesar.] Is there anything I can get either of you?

[a wry smile] I certainly have a few.

As you can imagine [quirks an eyebrow, glancing at Caesar] I began honing my skills in this area out of necessity.

[at the question he simply shakes his head, slouching a little tiredly-- arms over knees]

I don't want anything. [Well, he could probably use a lot of things, but he wasn't thinking about himself in that manner at all.]

Of course, of course. Such skills would certainly come in handy in a world infested with these things.

... I could get some more tea. [Except she doesn't really feel like moving, so if either of them don't acknowledge that statement, she just won't go anywhere.]

[quietly] That's right.

[and glancing at Raine] I'm fine, thank you. [and after that he falls silent again, watching the nearest window for the sun]
