+19+ Moving day [action/accidental voice]

[fellpool]

[Backdated to February 3.

The sky is relatively clear, but the incoming clouds, thick and bright against sky, hint at snowy weather around the corner. It's with that in mind that Leon (fellpool), Precis (rocketpunch), and Claude (mirrorblade) move their belongings from community building 1 to their new house, house 59.

Yep, that's right -- a trek from one side of the village to the other. There will be return trips, breaks, and maybe some unpacking going on today, so there's no shortage of places to see the trio today.

It's while Leon is rolling his teleportaton barrel that his journal falls out of his bag. He doesn't hear it over the sounds of the wood against the ground, but he is able to hear his pet cat meow in complaint behind him.]

What is it, Filia? [The journal may catch the sound of the cat meowing and Leon's footsteps as he walks back.] Man, it fell out again...? I should've just thrown it in one of the suitcases. C'mon, let's go -- this barrel isn't gonna move itself.


(ooc: Action threads may be pounced upon by one, two, or all three of them! If you'd like to catch Leon, Precis, or Claude alone, please specify that somewhere in the thread.)

[Hey, it's not like he's watching you in particular. There's nature and stuff out here too.]

It's too stuffy inside.

[fellpool]

[Okay, okay, maybe he's lucky and can use early spring blooming as an excuse...!]

I guess that makes sense. You have several roommates, right?

[emp3thy]

[He nods.] Five.

[fellpool]

...Geez. I knew there were a few of you, but I didn't expect that many. [There was Minato's twin and Loki, right? He wasn't sure of the others.] We're getting one of the bigger houses.

[emp3thy]

How many are in yours?

[fellpool]

Three of us. [...Okay, he might need to expand on that, because otherwise it would sound like they didn't have to move at all.] Precis-- oh, Precis is new here. Precis and I need separate workspaces.

[emp3thy]

So she's a scientist, too?

[To be honest he doesn't know much about Leon's skills, except that Haruhi abuses them and he uses the same symbology stuff that Faize used to...]

[fellpool]

Inventor, actually. Mechanics, engineering -- you name it. [But as far as actual titles were concerned, they ended up tinkering in similar ways more often than not.] She keeps a messier workplace, so we can't share.

[emp3thy]

[he nods.]

Makes sense. You don't want to get in the way.

[fellpool]

[Weeeell...] We're very protective of our work.

[emp3thy]

Or let her get in the way.

[fellpool]

It's kinda both. Her work tends to ... get away from her. [Read: Run away.]

[emp3thy]

Well, you'll have space now.

Which house are you taking?

[fellpool]

House 59. [He points towards the southeast, then glances back at Minato.] ...Past the barracks.

[emp3thy]

That's pretty far out.

[are you worried things will explode]

[fellpool]

[Ye-- Er. Mayb-- Er.]

Yeah. It was the only one that was available with two floors.

[emp3thy]

I wonder if the population is growing.

[but anyway, actually... now Minato remembers a topic he wanted to bring up...]

Leon-kun, there's something I wanted to ask you about.

[fellpool]

I'm not really sure. [He didn't look at the housing chart in the Welcome Center very often, so he didn't have much of a reference.]

...Something, Minato?

[emp3thy]

I met someone who's looking for fireworks.

[fellpool]

Fireworks? ...Is there a party coming up soon that I'm not aware of?

[emp3thy]

[he nods...] A girl named Fuuko wants to hold a Starfish Festival.

[fellpool]

Oh-- Fuuko! [He nods in understanding; he'd seen first hand Fuuko's starfish interest.] Are you helping her with her festival?

[emp3thy]

You know her? [that makes things easier.] She asked if I could arrange the fireworks. But you'd know more than me.

[fellpool]

Yeah, I guess I've gotten more experience than I ever thought I would... [He coughs.] I'd be happy to help.

[emp3thy]

Then I'll tell her, if you don't see her first.
