[The last thing he remembered was Mako yelling something in his direction, the kaiju raising a claw for his head. Then he was on the floor, wet and cold and told point blank something about a turtle (BS.) something about the land between the living and the dead (more BS) and told point blank to fend for himself.

In essence. That's what he heard. It's not entirely clear. His brain is a mix of Yancy and Mako twisting into one face that's beyond his saving.

He needs 24 hours. Something to eat. Some place to sleep. The place could easily pass for Hong Kong's boneslum. That's sort of familiar but there's no wall, there's no air of decay..]


Are those guys always that friendly? [He snorts] Sorry I was so rude guys. I was in the middle of a fight for my life and the lives of my friends and planet. Not too thrilled about getting grabbed.

[He doesn't look good either. I mean judging from a baseline human standard of you shouldn't be pale and wearing armor like that. He is in essence wearing armor.]

Can anybody tell me where the fire district is? And after that where I can get something to eat and something - [beat] something else to wear.

I've got [He reaches into a plain black bag hoping for money and coming up with this. It falls against the console and makes a loud squeak.]

...What's really going on here? I mean really.

Just a bit.

I found a cafe and muscled my way into a job. Or charmed. I say charmed, my boss would say muscled. Nothing glamorous but it's a job.

Not as far as I know.

And more like... muscled with persuasive arguments. Not one for actual muscle all things considered.

Well.

That's adorably polite of you.

I just said I'm not one for muscle. I didn't say I couldn't kick your arse.

[She's grinning at him though, just having a go at this poor guy on the network.]

[She pulls back to laugh a little bit. Once she's finished she grins at him.]

Just so you know if I do end up giving you a beating, it's Clara.

I went to university to study literature and then became a nanny. Useful skills around here.

[She looks him over, less of a smile now. He doesn't look good and it concerns her. Of course, if it were her, she'd hate for anyone to mention it or worry over her. But still, worrying over others is what she does.]

But before you look for a job, I'd check out a doctor.

...I know how that goes. Just don't pop your cogs before we have a chance to properly meet.

[She shrugs.]

Plenty of orphan Kedan kids but that doesn't pay. So I work as a waitress at a cafe here. End goal? Win the war, defeat Malicant and get out of here, simple and straight forward.

[her face falls as it becomes weighed down with sympathy.] I'm sorry. I lost my mum at that age. And someone's got to care. They're all good kids. Most kids are good kids, they just have hard surfaces.

[A pause and she sighs.]

I'm not quite sure who or what it is. Not even supposed to say it's name. So, in the future, don't. And I'll write a note to myself as well. [She looks a little guilty that she got carried away.] But it's something bad, lurking about here on the edges, made the turtle really ill. We're supposed to do something about it, somehow.

The turtle, Tu Vishan, protects us. All it wants is our help.

I don't.

But I don't want to be at the bottom of the ocean either.

[personal profile] parallels 2013-08-22 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
I can't.

But I think they're better then whatever is lurking at the edges. One thing at a time.

I know.

[Her voice goes a bit quiet against her will.]

Back home, I don't know if I'm even alive. Or if my best friend is alright. I never got to find out.
