Come on, boys, let's cause a stir.
Characters: Gene, Jackie, Alex, Miles, Aly, and YOOOOUU!!
Date: August
Location: Keeliai et al
Situation: Everything. All the things. All of them.
Warnings/Rating: Will be added as necessary.
A. [Gene] | Wood Sector | early August | open
Just because Gene's dealt with this weather before doesn't mean he particularly likes it. But at least the great trees of the Wood Sector provide some relief in the hottest parts of the day, and since he can't sleep much at all lately, let alone at midday, he walks.
He meanders, humming so quietly to himself that he's not even aware he's humming, something like an old lullaby.
B. [Jackie] | Night Market | throughout August | open
The Night Market's helping to improve Jackie's mood even more. It's almost like being back home in North Point. It's weird; it's one of those home-and-not things Keeliai, even now, throws at him, and while he should really expect them by now, he's always taken by surprise.
He can be found haggling and laughing and joking and just walking around with stars in his eyes. He's a happy dude.
C. [Alex] | Night Market | throughout August | open
It's really odd how much this alien place is familiar to Alex. The night market is familiar enough to bring him a wave of nostalgia, or something like it - a yearning for a time thirty years gone when he was a whole man. It's not a bitter feeling, but one like looking at his own life through glass, as though it were another's.
If he were given to being maudlin, he'd probably let himself be overcome by sadness and regret about how much of his life had been spent dwelling in shadow. But since he's not, he's having a damn great time at the night market. Come say hello!
D. [Miles] | Earth Sector | throughout August | open
It's time to stop being such a sadsack, Miles has decided, so he's actually...outside, walking around during the day, and not acting like a crazy person.
Well, not any crazier than usual.
His camcorder on his hip, he's gone out for a cup of tea. Surely nothing too terrible can happen to him while he's having tea, right?
Oh, God, he's just jinxed it.
E. [Aly] | throughout Keeliai | throughout August | open
Wow, Aly's being cheerful. She likes summer; always has, even if this is a little, ehn, swampy for her tastes. At least she's not being a moody little so-and-so.
And sometimes, someone might be able to find a maned wolf with gazelle horns doggy-paddling in the canals in the Water Sector to cool down, or playing with kedan children in the street. (Any Foreigners just try and pet her, though. See if you draw your hand back with all your fingers.)
Basically, there's a new stray puppy in town.
F. [Gene] | House Spicy Iron Dragon | early August | closed to Pepper
One of the good things about having your own place is that you have your own, well, place, a little bit of privacy to hide from the world, especially when things get too much. Gene's moved to the courtyard, trying to study for his shadow test.
How the hell do you study for a shadow test? Therapy, maybe?
G. [Gene] | Jade Dojo | August 15 | closed to Bakura
"So," Gene says as they're closing up shop for the day. "I've talked to Tony, I've talked to Pepper...I think I'm ready."
H. [Gene] | House Spicy Iron Dragon | July 10 | closed to Tony
[from here]
"That was more than five seconds," Gene says dryly. He knows what Tony means, but it's more fun to be pedantic, and he's pretty sure that Tony expects it of him at this point. "And you'd need something pressing it down to make it a panini, anyway."

E!
Taking off her shoes and leaving them to lie to the side, she kicks the ball through the watery spray to the delight of the children. Soon there's an impromptu soccer match to be had. Brigid kicks the ball toward Aly, and lets her take it.
no subject
I'm Pele, she thinks to herself. She doesn't want to speak aloud near the kids, since she wouldn't want to scare them.
no subject
Some of the adults around them smile indulgently.
Brigid catches the ball again, and passes it to the kids, kicking water at Aly.
no subject
No. Do not. Do NOT--
--wags her tail.
I am a disappointment.
B. - For BOYFRAND
She's hauling a load of clothing back to the shelter when she scents someone very dear to her. She walks up behind him and winks at the shopkeeper, before dropping a kiss on Jackie's cheek.
no subject
"Hey, you," he says, and grins. "Having fun?"
no subject
"What are you up to?"
no subject
"You're - uh - you seem happy, too," he says, hugging her back.
A
Bucky finds himself mostly in the Wood Sector, seeking shade and cool shelter from the heat. But even he has to eat. So that's why he's down from the branches of a tree, and headed into cafe, when he hears a lullaby. He doesn't recognize it, not really, but he's curious. He finds the young man humming it and stops. He's intruding and shouldn't be. But a one-armed man stands out.
no subject
"Barnes, isn't it?" He'd seen the man around the police department.
no subject
"It is." Bucky is quiet, almost soft-spoken.

B | Hi Jackie :D
This will be her defense if anyone inquires about her needing to take time off.
So there's a basket over her arm and a list in her other hand as she goes, and she isn't expecting to run into Jackie, but around the next corner there he is.
...Huh. Has she ever seen him so happy?
Raine tilts her head, then raises the hand with the list in it and waves at him.
Hi Raine :D
"Hey! Wasn't sure you'd come out to this," he says.
no subject
"There were things I needed to be out for anyway," she explains. Otherwise she might not have gone for the bustle of people. "Has something good happened?" ...Perhaps he's just happy in general, but she doubts that.
no subject
He sighs and looks around. "The night market was one of the things I really loved. It's good to have something like it back."
no subject
She considers her errands; considers Jackie. "Are you after anything particular here? If not, perhaps you'd care to walk with me? As I said, there are some things I wanted to acquire while I'm here."
H
"How's your day? Sorry I missed dinner." Hence the leftovers. At least he's a little better at keeping a consistent schedule than he used to be.
no subject
"It's been interesting. Been doing a lot of thinking, actually."
Uh-oh. Nothing good ever follows that statement.
no subject
"Thinking? About what?" His tone is less flippant now. It's almost... cautious. For Gene, thinking usually comes with a capital 'T', and it doesn't always bode well.
F
One thing Pepper does know, brooding on his own is a no-no if she's around to interrupt it (although she'll back off if he'd prefer to be alone). He doesn't look too troubled, so Pepper wanders out to the courtyard, knocking on the side of the house as if he's in a room.
"Hey. Thinking about landscaping or something a little more interesting?"
no subject
She absolutely would not, and he knows this, so he continues. "How do you cram for a Shadow test?"
no subject
"Uh." Pepper blinks at him. "That's a very good question." She takes a moment to think about how she'd prepared; it had involved asking Vee a lot of things, but there was also a specific moment that had assured her ka she would succeed.
"You have to challenge the strongest beliefs you have. About yourself, about other people, because you have to know who you are and what you stand for."
no subject
"I've been doing that for years. You'd think I'd be good at it by now," he says wryly.
no subject
E
"He's definitely the least nervous of the bunch," the kedan said aloud, "A few more rides and he should feel safer working alongside you."
Just then, Odin caught sight of the strange creature swimming in the water. The Kirin spooked sideways, though his rider easily stayed with him. Valdis turned to see what had scared the animal. She'd never seen a wolf like that before.
Aly? she snorted, recognizing the scent of the girl beneath the scent of maned wolf.
no subject
She clambered out of the canal and stood, dripping wet. The day she shook herself off was the day she went straight feral. "Uh, hello there," she said.
