5th Rainy Day [Written, filtered to anyone attending school/Action/Voice]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

[It's been a busy few weeks for him--and considering that he's signed himself up for class recently, it's no surprise that he hasn't come out of his room every time he came back. Not that there was a lot of homework for him to be done, but he did have a habit of clearing out what needed doing when it was given to him instead of putting it off, like a certain partner of his would if he heard there was school here.

A year in Inaba did him a lot of good, that's for sure--it gave him practice on how to handle his time well enough to fit his friends in, and make room for himself. It also gave him ideas for what to do with his time here.

So when he gets up this morning, he sets up a filtered message for the lowerclassmen, because they'll surely be needing what he's putting up on offer in spite of the cold weather.]

If anyone needs help with a subject, I can come tutor you when I'm done at Seventh Heaven. Just let me know where you are.

[With that done, he goes off to deal with his business. Whoever's interested in bugging him can find him at the school during break time, decked out in, on top of his usual uniform, a purple scarf and jacket that...just screams 'weird taste' to whoever gets a good look. If that isn't suitable for them, they could also find him at Seventh Heaven still wearing said getup, or on his way home, trying to get back before the weather gets too bad.

Or they could just come bother him on the post he makes on the Journal network when he's back in his community building, that works too.]

I'd like to extend a welcome to the New Feathers that came in recently. My name is Seta Souji, and I'm willing to answer any questions you might have.

I also have a question for everyone--what do you do when it's too cold to head outside?

Well, at home, when it was too cold for me to be outside, I'd just hang out on the computer... but given that there aren't really any computers in Luceti, I guess that's out! I wonder what I'm going to do now that I can't just wander around town...

[Voice]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

There's always reading a book or two.

...Though that's probably difficult to do in this weather, seeing where the library is.

[Probably a good thing he went there two weeks ahead before the cold really started settling in...]

[Voice]

[everyonesconfidant]

That's a good idea! I bet the library has books from all kinds of worlds. I ought to check it out.

...Say, you're a tutor at the school, aren't you? I thought I overheard something like that.

[Voice]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

Just be careful while you're out there. The wind's picking up.

[A moment of pause, before he answers again. ...Well, it was bound to come up eventually.] I am. Why do you ask?

[action]

[savarin]

[There's a... dog-person sitting in Seventh Heaven, enjoying a ludicrous amount of food; quite a few empty plates are on the table, as well as others still bearing delicious dishes. He's wolfing it all down, as it were, but Souji's arrival makes him pause, mouth open. That's... a lot of purple. Red's just curiously staring... maybe a little too intensely. Then again, he's not really the best judge of taste; maybe it's a human thing? Anyway, long story short, really hungry dog-man in weird clothes staring at you, Souji.]

[action]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

[...So that's where all of the food he's been cooking was going. A dog...person.

...What. Okay, he really can't get what's going on here anymore...then again, he does know there were dog-like personas in the Compendium somewhere...]

...Can I help you?

[action] that was the most glorious icon

[savarin]

[Just going to lower that fork now. Quick, think of something to say--]

Sorry, just... a-admiring your sense of style! That purple really... looks good on you.

[Well, this is incredibly awkward. After a few moments, Red's just going to get up and hold a hand out.] Hi, I'm Red. Red Savarin. Nice t' meet you, I think?

voice;

[happyends]

.. Um.. I'd stay inside, probably..?

[ THAT ANSWER IS TOO LITERAL, MADOKA. ]

voice; Oh, Madoka, never change.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

[...Very, very literal, there.]

That's...not quite what I mean.

[happyends]

But you asked what you do when it's too cold to head outside, right? If you would go outside after all, then.. w-well, maybe you'd just freeze up, that'd be bad for sure!

[Voice]

[eightlazylegs]

Be inside.

Question: How get money? How order things? Need GrubHub, eBay.

[Voice]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

[...What.

...Where the hell does Luceti get this crap? How many more odd things will he encounter before his brain breaks from the weirdness?]

...There's no money here. You...have to go out and get everything.

[...Important question that needs answering--] ...Who am I talking to?

[eightlazylegs]

Hermes. [Yeah, he's used to that face.] Am octopus.

If no money, how buy and sell? How order food?

[contaeoro]

If there are any folks to talk to inside, that's always been a choice for me. A game of cards, perhaps, or even a book if I've got one one hand and no one's around.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

Card games, huh? [Sounds like another pastime he could get into if he could figure it out...]

What kind, if you don't mind me asking?

[contaeoro]

Any that can be played with the number of people there, really. Sometimes we play poker, sometimes it's as simple as trying to make a card castle -- although that's actually more challenging than poker, to be honest.

[voice]

[emp3thy]

[This is an interesting question and it requires contemplation and a serious, well-thought-out response.]

Sleep.

[voice]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

[...Really, Minato? Really?]

That's it?

[voice]

[emp3thy]

Maybe eat tangerines, too.

[Kotatsu season is the best season.]

[voice]

[seleniahymn]

Continue with whatever it is that needs to be done, change in weather shouldn't hinder one from their responsibilities.

[... serious woman is serious...]

[voice]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

[...Really, really serious. He recognizes her, too.]

Even if it means getting sick?

[voice]

[seleniahymn]

Necessary precautions would have to be made regardless, wouldn't it?

[voice]

[fortuneprince]

Read and continue my research and studies, as I always have.

[Does this answer surprise you Souji]

[voice]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

[Not at all, and he won't be afraid to voice it.]

Is there any time that you're not? [Come on, Naoto, relax a little. Those Sherlock books must really want your attention right now.]

[voice]

[fortuneprince]

[Oh don't worry, she has her Sherlock books right beside her on her desk.]

No, I can't say there is. Even here, I prefer to remain dedicated to my studies, especially when such a vast amount of data has been given to us.
