[After she took her son to tour the Unity Group base, Sarah...vanished. For a solid week, she didn't show up at all. Recently she's been around, but hasn't talked to people too much...she never was really a huge buddy-buddy team member, though, so that sort of thing isn't odd.

It is odd when, out of the blue, she'll walk up to you and engage conversation. Her right arm is bandaged up as well, for some reason.]

Hey, are you free? I...kinda want to hang out.

Comments

[jianai]

You really want to?

[Ren's face is positively beaming.]

I'd love to have you around, Sarah!

[63rd_shockwave]

...Yeah, sure. I kinda need to get to know everyone...

Uh, you're not planning anything weird, are you?

[jianai]

No, of course not! What gave you this impression?

[63rd_shockwave]

Sorry, it's just...

...you're really excited. It's...a little weird.

[jianai]

It's just that, others seem reluctant to spend time with me, for some reason. My presence is tolerated, and I am glad for that, but I found that others rarely go talk to me on their own.

I am not that weird, am I?

[mistaken_for_monster]

Um...

[Volya seems to squirm anxiously in place. Oddly enough the bunch of vines in a sundress gesticulated at Sarah and then at Volya, followed by the noises one would already come to expect from the plant creature.]

Tbthhhhtttht.

...Yeah... I guess... its not like I'm gonna be able to do much here thanks to Loni...

[He twitched a little at the name, hand moving to his cheek... then quickly rubbing at it before looking miserably at his makeshift garden. Plenty of flowers, most prominent are what look to be lilies.]

Had some dirt there...

[63rd_shockwave]

...Why, did something happen? He didn't kick them over or anything, did he?

[mistaken_for_monster]

Well... no... I mean the whole thing with the whole... less of everything means I can't water them regularly.

[There's a soft whining noise.]

Interitus isn't too happy about it either.

Wouldn't put it past him though... he didn't like what I had to say about him after the whole thing with Major Plisken...

[63rd_shockwave]

...Do I even want to hear that story...

[mistaken_for_monster]

...Do you want to?

[Interitus 'looks' back and forth between the two and proceeds to try play charades to tell Sarah what happened.]

Tbhht tbtth tbhhttttthht. Tthtt thht. Tbttthbthhht.

[...Its not so effective.]

[empress_without_a_throne]

[Oh boy.]

Honestly Sure.

I... need something to take my mind off Dido being captured. And the environment here isn't all that great.

[Thanks, Loni.]

[63rd_shockwave]

Yeah, no kidding...Wanna go for a hike, or something? It's a pretty good day outside.

[empress_without_a_throne]

Not for me unless there's plenty of clouds, but I'll manage.

And yeah, a hike would be nice.

[63rd_shockwave]

Ah, there's that whole...darkness, thing. Well, if it's not too rough...

[And Sarah leads the way on out of there.]

So...what's your life even...like? I've had plenty of weird stuff, but for you, well...

[empress_without_a_throne]

[Out into the open world she goes, opening up her parasol for protection.]

Awkward at the start, let me tell you that. And awkward now too, for... different reasons.

Not too long ago it was you I was fighting and my best friend I was happy to see back at the base. Now... it's pretty much the opposite.

[not_a_prize]

No problem, just been enjoying this match.

[Peola shrugs lightly, watching a good old fashioned slobberknocking brawl on from a past Wrestlefestival.]

Kinda curious why though... I mean you were pretty happy to keep to yourself.

[63rd_shockwave]

Yeah, well...I had some bridges burned for me pretty hard. So I might as well get to know the people on the side I'm on.

[Sarah plops down next to Peola.]

So...you watch this stuff a lot?

[not_a_prize]

Well for what its worth, I get the feeling you're a good person.

[Peola offers Sarah a small grin.]

Back home we have a saying. Anyone who feels like the sun to you will always have a good heart. So if you want someone to talk to, I'll be around.

And yes I do whenever I'm off duty. We don't have this teevee thing back on Magnolys, and Wrestlefestival's a lot more entertaining than some of the fights that happen in public back there. There's a lot more personality too.

[63rd_shockwave]

Feels like the sun, huh...well, they probably didn't have me in mind when they came up with that, I cheat there.

...You know, I never really watched this sort of stuff before. Though it does all look kinda silly.

[not_a_prize]

I think its the way they're all into it that makes it great. Sure its a little silly, but it just really livens things up. Can't believe you've never watched it though. I mean you actually live on Earth.

[Peola ponders something though.]

What did you mean though? About cheating about feeling like the sun?

[tiger_ken]

[Ken meanwhile, is hanging off a beam, feet above him. He's not exactly working himself to death as with previous cases, but... well, exercise lets him vent frustrations over his teammate's current status.]

Where we going?

[He asks, upside down.]

[63rd_shockwave]

I dunno, wherever you want to hang out? Arcade, junk yard, skatepark, anything's good.

And get down from there, you look silly.

[tiger_ken]

Silly...?

[He does one pull-up from that position, before flipping off the frame.]

Its training. Partly because... I don't know that many places to just 'hang out' either.

[...Although, he does briefly pause to think.]

There's this one café. Kanade showed it to me.

[Grabbing his jacket, he gestures for Sarah to follow.]

[63rd_shockwave]

Seriously? You don't like, hang out with girls or go drinking with friends? I used to do that stuff all the time...

...Well, whatever, show the way.
[And she'll follow along.]

[tiger_ken]

G-Girls?!

[Well that got Ken all a-fluster.]

W-Well, I would, its just... I don't make much out of being a janitor... and I'm pretty sure the ones I might ask are too busy for boyfriends...

[What a blabbermouth of a ninja.]
