magentarific | o9 :: Flood of Destiny

[voice]
Since the whole place is in shambles anyway, does anyone with building skill want to help me make a new building for a coffee house? I'm willing to work as long as whoever I'm working with actually knows what they're doing, because I don't.

[ A beat of silence before she completely changes gears. ]

Also: I've got a ref and at least two players signed up, but I want to hold a beach volleyball tournament when things are less wet! I'll need at least two people to wear bikinis and aprons to hand out refreshments and lots of participants.

{{ ooc: I got permission for Yuri to have a coffee shop, but since there's no place for one she'd have to build her own. Since she has no building skill, she needs help. The flood is like a sign from destiny, though. }}

[ At any point during the day after this post, one might find Yuri wandered around town looking for a good spot that she wants to set up shop. She's wearing something different than normal, a nice green coat that she'd received as a gift quite some time ago, and it almost looks as though she's about to give up--

No, she's just heading off to get out of some of the mess to take her socks off, since they're pretty much just getting covered in mud and mess anyway and making her a lot more uncomfortable than if she had bare legs. Sure, it might not be as warm, but it's not itchy at least. ]

You're still doing the coffee shop thing?

[She mentioned the destruction making this convenient, but it still seems odd to him.]

Why wouldn't I be?

It's kind of strange to be thinking about that now, isn't it? There might be people who still need help.

I'm out here looking, if I see anyone who needs help then I'll help them. If I had master building skills to help with that sort of thing, I wouldn't need to ask for help with it. If I go on here and offer to help the needy, chances are if they really need help they're probably not going to be scrolling through this looking for someone offering.

I don't know about that. [He would feel much better asking someone who was already offering!] I just mean that... the people who are good with building things are probably already doing that.

Well all this stuff will rebuild itself eventually won't it? That's what I heard is supposed to happen, anyway. Shifts and whatnot. If we want to build something new, though, we have to actually do it.

It just seems weird to worry about that right now. [He sighs.] The guide mentioned a group that does odd jobs. If they're still around, why don't you ask them?

Everyone's okay or at least getting there, right? If we're all building anyway, we need to take the opportunity to look forward as well. You should never only look in one direction, you know. [ Yuri thinks for a second. What was their name again? It was.. ] Brave Vesperia?

I guess so. [He could probably take something from this conversation, but for now, he's not really thinking about it.] But yeah, that's them. They're probably busy with the clean-up right now, but maybe they can help.

[ Oh Shinji. Ignoring all the life lessons of a dead girl. ]

Yeah. I'll have to hunt them down soon, once everything's a bit less busy.

[Shinji is kind of a terrible person. ;;]

That might help. Maybe they can help you get started on it, at least.

[ It's okay, she won't judge too much. ]

Mhm. You should help out too. Do you know how to build anything?

Of course not. If I did, don't you think I would've offered?

You were so busy lecturing me about it, I wasn't sure if you were holding out on me because you thought you should be helping others.

If I could be helping them, then I would be.

Maybe I should have you infiltrate Brave Vesperia so you can learn how to.

[WHAT EVEN, YURI.]

Th-that doesn't sound like something that requires an "infiltration." I don't think that's how any of them learned.

Great, then just go ask them.

It's not something you learn by just asking, either.

[He has to wonder if she even knows what she's asking anymore!]

No, I meant go ask them to teach you.

I don't think that's really what they meant by "odd jobs," Yuri.

Well then while you're asking, you can ask them if that is or isn't what they met. Don't make me make it an order, Shinji.

You'd be better off just asking them to build it, you know.

Oh, I will. But I want you to learn at least a thing or two. Basics, Shinji.

Your idea of "basics" is a little weird, though.

[...well. More than a little. His memories from the beginning of June were a little fuzzy, but he definitely knows that much.]
