006 [Action/Audio]

[Action: Locked to Souji Okita]

[Consciousness crept upon him slowly, like a migraine. It slipped in through the window panels with the sun and stung his eyes, but for once Cliff did not want to awaken. He instead rolled over with a groan, burying his face under his arms and promising himself another ten minutes.

But a nagging sensation in the back of his mind kept sleep at bay. He knew in his gut that it was something important, something that was blue and white...

...Fayt.

His eyes snapped open as he crashed into the memories. The dogs and the cultists were all a blur, but the spear stood out in his mind. It was only when he sat up that he registered the not-entirely familiar surroundings and the warm body lying by his side.]


[Action: Locked to Fayt Leingod]

[He messed up, and there was no way to fix and forget about the mess that he had left for everyone to deal with in the battlefield that was once Zompania. It was afternoon by the time he returned to his apartment in the ground building, wearing a fresh set of denim jeans and a comfortable tee-- both of which fit because of some miracle. The dark shades he wore were new, as was he bag he carried by his side that contained the clothes he borrowed off of Souji and yet another set of loose white pants to add to his small collection.

Entering as quietly as he could manage, Cliff did a once-over of the apartment to make sure that things were still mostly as he left it. The Vac whirred and hummed patiently as it made a pass over the carpet, and Cliff found himself smiling.

At least that was still functioning.

After throwing his belongings into his room, he made for Fayt's. A quiet knock was the only warning he gave before he nudged the door open...]


[Audio: Open to All]

Yo. It's Cliff.

[It was dark by the time he reached for his journal, but he didn't care. There were plenty of other people that he wanted to see, but there was no way he could go visit them all in one day.

This was the next best thing.]


Can I get a headcount of who all's here and a tally on the damage? And, is the bar open?

[He'll be heading there later if he get's confirmation. For once, he plans to drink unil the damage doesn't look so bad.]

[Well...she'd...sort of figured out things went south when she hadn't seen him return. She owes him something, too. For that first night.]

Cliff. It's nice to see you.

[He sets it slightly off center, to her left, but she doesn't mind. Smiling at him, she moves the drink closer and just...stares at it for a long moment. It smelled okay, a lot different from the wine she'd had before, but after the draft and the smell of all that death...it was a welcome change.]

I...don't think so. I wonder what that was all about, honestly. It went on too long, and it was a little different than the usual nonsense.

[Still eyeing the drink, she frowns, not picking it up just yet.]

Is this...something you sip? Or drink all at once?

[How does she cider, Cliff? ]

[Should it be odd? They did have a moment, a few days ago.]

I...wanted to say thank you. For the other night. Also, I have something for you.
faithfulflame: (Priestess Smiling)

[personal profile] faithfulflame 2014-06-04 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
Oh...

[Not having a great frame of reference for this, she hesitantly picks it up and turns the glass around in her hand, studying it like it was some sort of mutant bug juice. Was this really a terribly good idea? Drinking something she didn't know anything about?

Swallowing thickly, she raised it up to her lip and took a sip. Sweet was right. A hint of bitterness to it too, but not unpleasant. Not what she'd expected at all, in truth.]


Hummm...

[Another sip, this one slightly bigger than the first. How...odd it tasted. Different, and a bit warm going down too.]

What did you say this was called?

[For her it was like yesterday, though her general perception of time is more than slightly skewed. She folds her hands on front of her and peered at the camera for a silent moment.]

I do. We all did, but that doesn't make me any less grateful. I'm not ashamed to admit that I haven't had many moments where I've broken down in front of a stranger like that.

[A hand waves off the apology though.]

It was just a bottle of water. If you want another one, it's easy enough to make.

Cider. [She takes another sip, setting it down with a frown before looking at him.] English is a language, yes. Not mine, but it's definitely a language. What...does that have to do with the drink, though?

Then I'll bring you another one.

[Saori sucks in a long breath, exhaling slowly. Mortals had little real concept of debt, and of the meaning behind it all. She liked this man, for his candor and his easygoing demeanor...and she understood where he was coming from. But...

She looks at the camera, her tone somewhat imploring.]


You don't...fully understand what it meant to me, I think. I owe you something. Please, let me repay the debt.
ahappylie: (Frank and open)

[He paused and then nodded.] Of course I don't mind.

[Then he slipped out of the room. The house seemed empty still, even though Saizou was sitting on the couch, looking at him curiously. He gave his pet a smile as well, then let the expression fall away as he went to the other room and found a kimono that worked. It was a dark green, unpatterned, and game with a black obi - to him it was plain, but this was Harada's favored style. He'd gathered a few upon living here, but it still felt strange to be loaning his things out.

Souji fingered the fabric quietly before closing the box it sat in, then headed back to the room. He knocked and opened the door, sliding the long wooden box inside before heading to the kitchen.

[TOTALLY IGNORES the curtness from Cliff, continuing on-]

That still hasn't answered my question.

If it wasn't open, I think I'd be in a bit of trouble right now. [Karis smiles sheepishly, somewhat lifting her glass of Going Merry, which was barely even touched.]

The more the merrier I say, especially when it comes to drinks. [She nods.]

Don't worry, I've had plenty of water, as well as sleep. Well, maybe too much sleep actually.

[Karis raises her drink up.] Of course! I'll be waiting, and maybe half of my drink will be gone by then! [She laughs, just before closing the journal. She'll be waiting patiently for Cliff, slowly going through her Going Merry.]
