Situation: Various
Warnings: n/a ; will update as needed
Notes: Akito will be shapeshifted for a majority of the month. If you want his normal appearance just make a note of it in your tag.


{ Scenario #1 }

No matter how much Akito may want to sleep his days away, still hurting from Agito's disappearance despite them both being aware it was likely only temporary, he still has a job to do. With the increase in crime he's noticed an increase in delivery requests from nervous kedan, on top of the requests he's been getting due to the sickness going around. It keeps him too busy to miss home, and he can't even feel guilty about being glad for the increase in business, regardless of the reason why.

There are enough deliveries that he covers only one sector per trip instead of two or three, yet he still finds it enjoyable - it gives him time to see the sights of each district as opposed to rushing through them.




{ Scenario #2 }

Work isn't the only thing that's been keeping Akito busy. Days when delivery requests are few and far between are days he runs his errands, stocking up on supplies to wrap and tie packages, groceries, and any other necessities he needs that week.

He never really purchases too much, though he makes sure to take his time and browse through all of the selections when he has a chance, just in case something catches his eye.




{ Scenario #3 }

If he's not working or running errands, Akito can be found at his apartment working on various things - homework from Callaghan, organizing his business records, or even building anything from basic furniture to complex ornamental pieces out of scraps. Bird keeps him company during these times, singing him songs to keep his mood up, or urging Akito to play games with him.

"Is it still the same strength that it was originally, or has it weakened over time?"

Suddenly the disparity in technology makes much more sense, but that's a thought for another time - right now he still needs to get some answers about the strange sound. "It's not that I don't want to tell you. I already have. It's just a matter of you not believing it," he rubs his face with a hand, frustrated that he can't think of how to prove he isn't lying. "If there was a way to prove it to you, I would gladly do so."

[cherrywood]

"Oh, it's much less than what it was," Eiryam agreed, "but it's also been centuries. I'm not sure you can wait it out, for this particular project."

[akito]

A shake of the head. "No, not really. Even if I could wait, I wouldn't want to."

But that still doesn't answer the question of the wavelength he heard under the console network. Or does it? He doesn't think so, but it can't hurt to ask. "Would the atmospheric radiation be the cause of a wavelength running so deep under the shell?"

[cherrywood]

Eiryam considers that for a moment, but then shakes his head. "I wouldn't think so," he said. "Although without hearing it, I couldn't be sure. I suppose the next step would be to get a recording of it from a console."

[akito]

"It wasn't coming from the console, but underneath it." At least, he thinks that it was? "Could a recording still be taken from the console?"

[cherrywood]

"The consoles are a direct line into the 'power grid' that the Turtle provides, right?" Eiryam smiled. "It'd be the most logical place to start, at least. I have time right now, if you do. Shall I get my tools from my room?"

[akito]

"Un, yeah, that's what I've heard." He nods, offering a small smile in return. "I have time right now. Do you need help carrying your tools?"

[cherrywood]

"Oh, they're not heavy. I'll get them and be back shortly," Eiryam replied. He stands and disappears upstairs again, and returns about five minutes later, carrying a small satchel over one shoulder.

"Where was the console you were listening to before?" he asked.

[akito]

Akito waits patiently for Eiryam to return. The question is one he had expected, so he already has an answer at the ready: "I listened to consoles in every sector, and it seems like it's present under all of them."

[cherrywood]

Eiryam considers that, checking his tools. "Well, let's find someone to volunteer one who might not mind if something goes wrong. Something in the Metal Sector, so at least if it needs to be replaced, I can report it to the Metalworkers."

[akito]

"Do you think that something will go wrong?" He understands it's always important to be prepared, but it's also nice to have a general idea of how likely it is that things are going to explode.

"But I'm familiar with the Metal Sector, and the Metalworkers. It shouldn't be too hard to find someone willing to loan us their console! And I can offer discounted services for them as a thank-you bonus."


((ooc: actually! just a note to say that if you would rather handwave the rest and sort it out via PM, if that would ease up on your modload, I would be fine with it! I know you've been pretty overwhelmed the past few weeks, so anything that'd help is fine with me.))

[cherrywood]

((That's fine!))
