[OPEN] You tell me of our future that you planned...
Characters: Bakura & OPEN
Date: February catch-all log
Location: Various around Khatronma for the first half of the month, then Keeliai and outside the city.
Situation: Assorted run ins. Open starters in the log, closed starters in the comments. Or add your own!
Warnings/Rating: Add warnings if needed in subject headers.
A. KHATRONMA DOCKS, LANDFALL, EVIDET
He's spent almost the entire visit to the continent in Khatronma, having not realized he was desperate to get away from Keeliai for a while until he was actually way from it. Once he was, the air seemed less heavy around him, and he began taking interest in the things he saw. The massive shipyards were fascinating, and the temperature controlled dome let him spend hours walking up and down the berths to examine them.
At the moment, he's stopped his wandering in favour of sitting on the edge of a personal boat shed, the door propped open and an older Bresilykian man inside, working on the overturned hull of a sailboat, or something like it. The Evidet native is keeping up a steady chatter of conversation, and seems to be mid-story about a sailing race that his parents met during.
For the sentimental content, Bakura doesn't even look like he minds. He's even listening, at least well enough to interject with observations and questions during pauses, but he's not carrying the prickly aura he normally projects.
B. WATER SECTOR, KEELIAI
back in Keeliai however, the weather was still bitterly cold. Unfortunately, he still had to go out in order to buy food and necessities, and the hassle of walking all over to find kedan who were willing to sell to Foreigners without ripping them off left him distinctly frozen. He would have been glad to return back to his accommodations had he not been stopped on the street by a crowd of kedan partly blocking the street that ran alongside the canal. They were pulling on skates and venturing out tentatively onto the frozen waterway, and one of them offers a pair of rudimentary skates to the thief.
"No," Bakura said, shaking his head. "Not interested. I don't know how, anyway."
C. JADE SCHOOL OF KUNG FU DOJO, WOOD SECTOR, KEELIAI
Bakura hadn't been here in almost a year (almost two years, if one counted the year that had passed in the Dreaming, and while he was away) and he'd only stopped because he'd been passing by while on his way to something else. But the something else wasn't pressing, and the dojo looked once again abandoned, and so he'd let himself past the low gate and onto the property. He wasn't sure what he expected to happen -- no angry elements came crashing down on his head -- and he touched the clean metal lock on the door.
Ryou must have put that on there. He knew that the dojo had been deeded to the teen when Korra had left the turtle. Now, with Ryou gone as well, it seemed as though it would slip back into disuse.
The lock takes only a moment to pick, and he leaves the door open to step inside. It's immediately obvious that efforts were already made to clean it, but that they hadn't gone very far. Bakura takes a quick tour around the building, making mental notes about what he finds, until he ends up back outside of the dojo's front entrance, staring up at the building with a contemplative frown.
"Hmm..."

Because even while Bakura himself had been laying low, he still kept an eye on the goings-on in the city.

"I'm in with the Snakes now."

"Your choice or theirs?"

Even if he still felt conflicted about gang life. It was what he excelled at - it was his only set of skills, and he had nothing to strive for now that Rio'era was gone. Even if Zanru hadn't taken over Stark Industries, that Tony kid probably wouldn't even remember him. So he'd fallen back on crime, because there was nothing else.

"You're good at more than that, akhekhu," he answered. "Just don't get in over your head again. I remember that our first conversation was about how to get your blood out of your clothes."

"So what, you gonna take over this place and be the sifu?" he asked Bakura, a little teasing in his tone. Not that he didn't think the thief could do a good job - it was just a funny mental image.

"So if you're just gonna run the place, who's gonna teach? Or is this just gonna be a safe space for us all to beat the crap outta each other when we're having a bad day?" He laughed.

Bakura's mention of his Fiends made Jackie blink. "Oh yeah. I forgot you could do that." Blocked it out of his mind, more like. Last time he'd seen Bakura use his powers, they'd been fighting, Jackie possessed by Malicant.

He seemed to follow Jackie's startled train of thought regarding his summons. "You can't pick up other people's magics now," he said. He hardly held a grudge for something like that. "The 'boons' from Asti... they all stopped. Would you want it back, if you could?"

He sighed. "But it was nice, to be special. Even just for a couple months."

Wei couldn't have been lying to him, and Bakura couldn't be using him now. So he does what he always does: he laughs off a harsh reality because he doesn't want to deal with it.
"Yeah, guess I can't be too careful, huh?"

"Ha, yeah, good point. So is this where I can find you, now? Sifu Bakura?" he teases.
