Date: April 2017

Situation: Depends
Warnings/Rating: Will be added if necessary


1. Outside Milyn's clinic

Every few days before noon, you may find Leo nearby the clinic-- sitting down on the steps, or, in the later days, talking with some of the nicer looking gang members that stand watch on the place. Every once in a while, he would even bring a few flowers to the place; he wanted it to stay nice and presentable. He hadn't known Milyn for long, but from what he gathered from talking around with the Kedan, she would have probably liked it.

On some of those days, he even took pictures of the place. It was too colorful not to do so.

2. A drink to...? | Some bar in Keeliai

It was a hell of a long week. And hellish long weeks were best departed with a shot of any drinkable alcohol that the bar had. Since there was no way to send his sister money all the way from another planet, he actually could afford something that didn't resemble isopropyl alcohol. He asked the bartender for something that wasn't too strong-- all seeing eyes + hangover = bad.

Nevertheless, his social skills left a lot to be desired from since he didn't do much other than listen to those around him. Please hit him up.

3. Rebuilding in the Lorn Level

The place that was hardest hit by the earthquake is also somewhere Leo frequents throughout the month. He may be seen a couple days a week for most of the day, helping out the kin'nal with rebuilding. He has no super strength or anything of the sort, but he's trying to do small things at least, like picking up necessary materials or simply talking to others.

4. Around Keeliai

Days have passed since Leo viewed the Xunutane and his curiosity won't stop nagging him. Those markings that he had seen, connected to the rock...what were they exactly? Where did they go? While his boss was more than excited with his findings, he himself was left with more questions than he had arrived with.

And like the somewhat average reporter that he used to be, he's going to go investigating. At first, he wanders around, unsure of what or where he's supposed to look for, but later in the month, he can be seen more around the beaches that border Hatal. Always with his goggles on, trying to hide the brightness of his eyes as they are put to work.

Comments

[purrns]

It's not quite as bad, back home. Most people, he's found, are inherently good. Even the villains he has to fight are just warped versions of people who have been pushed too far, people who are looking for revenge. Perfect prey for Papillon's little mind games. Once they were defeated, they went back to normal. Tried to fix their problems with words rather than action.

Not bad people. Just people.

He smiles at Leo, though. He already liked the guy on first meeting. He prides himself on being a good judge of people. Now, though? Now he's sure that goodwill was well founded. If there's one thing this or any other world needs, it's more people willing to step up and help others.

"You better believe it. Whatever we can do is something. It's better than standing back and not lending a paw to someone in need. I wouldn't want to be any other way."

[omnivident]

He's was going to say something just as meaningful right there, add to the good conversation that they were having at the moment. But there's something that catches his attention, something that makes him raise an eyebrow.

"Did you....just make an animal pun?" Really. REALLY? Leo is just speechless by this. But can he really expect anything else from someone who was covered from head to toe in spandex? Someone who's probably young enough to be his little brother.

Man, that did bring a small smile to his face. "So, where are you helping out? Want me to join you?" He asks, somewhat glad that he had found someone else he could relate with...even if it is some 14 year old.

[purrns]

Excuse you, Leo, some fifteen year old. He beams stupidly, rubbing a hand over his hair, look how cool he is, look how cooooool.

"I made a cat pun. It's my thing. You know...because cat."

He thinks he's so witty. Feel bad for Ladybug, she has to deal with this bullshit all the time. He nods, because he's never one to turn down help. Good work goes by easier and faster when more people pitch in.

"Sure am! I'm helping shift older rubble so they can put new stuff down. You could say I've got talents in demolition. But hey, I welcome any help!"

[omnivident]

In the back of his head, he's hoping to any deity listening that they affirm that he wasn't this lame as a fifteen year old. Of course, there's no response. And how could he rain on someone else's parade?

Very easily, actually. "I feel that I should have seen that coming a mile ago." He's judging you hard, Chat. Actually, not that much, considering the joking smile on his face, but hey. "If someone scratches behind your ear, will you start purring too?" God he hopes not, because then it really would be weird and unsettling.

"Well, I guess I could help clean up some stuff since, well, I'm basically skin and bone." Not so much now, considering his boss is on top of him 24/7, but he still has very little muscle...and a lack super strength.

[purrns]

He probably was. It's the curse of all fifteen year olds. Knowing everything and yet knowing nothing. Such is the age between child and adult. Yay.

"I've been known to purr, for the right person," is the smug response.

Ladybug. He would absolutely purr for Ladybug, any day of the week. Forever.

"There you! That helps, too. Anyone willing to put in some effort is really appreciated by these folks, I'm certain."
