✿ video/action for nonah #007

[video]
[The feed starts off covered up with a soundtrack of muffled "wait so it's on now?" "you have to move your hand off the camera" "ah, that's what that whatsit is? Thank you darlin'" And a moment later the view is cleared, and there's a man smiling like he didn't just make the least smooth debut onto the network that he could've possibly had.]

So our lovely hosts've informed this old man that I'm a late arrival and missed some wild party. You'd think if they have the power to grab people from all over the cosmos they wouldn't be stuck to a strict monthly schedule.

Anyway, the name's Raven. If any of you've got an idea what bars one'd go to ta find the cutest girls in Nonah, I'd appreciate the info. I'm told that's the name of the city I'm situated in.

[action]
[Once he gets dropped off, Raven does a quick survey of his immediate surroundings. The architecture was... different. Not so much as to be unfamiliar but it's definitely not like any neighborhood back home, certainly not like the houses in Dahngrest.

Walking inside the house unannounced, Raven wanders around the first floor to get his bearings before pausing in front the mantle to pick up an empty decorative vase. He considers it a moment before just trying to will flowers into place. To his delight it works and the vase fills with an array of fuschia roses with sprigs of baby's breath, lavender and lemon verbena leaves. He trots over to the kitchen to add water to the vase while yelling in the direction of the stairs.]

Hey, anybody home? [Seems like something that should've been checked earlier, Raven.]

Don't worry too much about missing out. A monthly schedule also means there'll be another one coming up.

[AH he already summoned a cute girl what luck.]

Guess that's th' one upside of having a schedule. Me I'm more've a go with the flow kinda guy.

You got a name to go with that pretty face of yours, darlin'?

Edited 2015-10-19 03:03 (UTC)

[Didn't he just call himself an old man? Because she's in high school.]

Ah...Touka. [Said somewhat reluctantly. No point in hiding it though, since they've got the comm IDs.]

I don't go to every one. It can be kind of...hit or miss depending on what happens. [To an extreme, considering how badly some have gone.]

[He says a lot of things, most should be taken with a grain of salt.]

Huh. When you say miss are we talking like "lame party" or more like an actual disaster?

Actual disaster. It's been pretty bad before. I mean...when nothing does go wrong, it's fine.

[Sorry to spoil the party image, but it's probably better to know ahead of time.]

[He laughs a little.]

Well I sure would hope it'd be fine if nothing went wrong. Be a little odd if it wasn't, y'know.

[He does appreciate the warning... even if he doesn't say so.]

[Touka'd warn people even if they didn't appreciate it, so she doesn't really notice anyway. It's up to them if they still want to actually go.

She does smile back a bit though.]

Well, it's fine if you like parties. Some people don't. [Parties usually involve food that she can't eat. And laid out everywhere. But getting to meet the new arrivals can be fun.]

I know about Nonah bars.

[This in theory sound helpful but he can't help but feel a little apprehensive at how succinct that response is.]

Don't suppose you feel like sharing?

Yup. You wanna get told over this, or you wanna have 'em shown to you in person?

Well, I certainly wouldn't want to put you out. I was more hopin' for names I could investigate when I go exploring later. Gotta get a lay of the land, figure out where things are, y'know.

[He doesn't know about GPS yet, the poor guy.]

Oh. I could do that, I guess.

I like the Rusty Spoon. It's kind of a dive bar.

[Oh this is actually helpful!!]

Well wouldn't ya know it, that's just my kinda scene. Things might get a little hairy at times but no one'll pester you as long as you keep to yourself.

It's a bar. Who goes to bars to keep to themselves?

[Raven smiles again, but this one is slyer, less energetic.]

People don't just go to bars to have fun, y'know. Least where I'm from, they're good places to gather information.

What are you, some kind of spy?

Well if I was, I wouldn't be a very good one if I told ya, now would I?

Lotsa people gather information for a living. It's more profitable than you might think.
[This is all absolutely something a spy would say, isn't it.]

Okay, like who else? Give me an example. Are you doing it for the job you got here, or for something else?

Info brokers, guides, writers, like I said, lotsa people.

But nah, I'm working at a flower shop here, apparently.

What is it with guys showing up and wanting to know where the cute girls are?

[First it was that guy looking for the high school girls and now this? Kaito might be a pervert, but he's also a gentleman when it counts.]

Well I mean, my living arrangements are taken care of already. Seems like the next thing to get squared away, don'tcha think?

[No Raven, not at all.]

I suppose you have one up on the other guy - he was looking for high school girls to help clean his place.

You would think you would be more worried about why you were here. Or complaining about your job - I think a lot of us complained about that when we first got here.

Well they told us why. Dunno if I agree with their choices but when you get to be my age ya kinda learn when you aughta lie low and scope things out. With large scale operations light this you want to learn all you can about it before doin' anything.

As for work, they got old Raven working in a flower shop. Pretty different than what I was doin' but I'm not complaining.

True.

[The very reason Kaito hasn't scheduled any KID heists. Especially not with a government that had as much information on them that it had. Apparently Tantei-kun's paranoia had rubbed off on him.]

A flower shop? Oh man, that's cool. So much better then what I got when I showed up.

Sure beats having to run around all over the place. Plus the fancy new trick they gave me here aughta come in handy.

[He says as he pulls a rose out of seemingly thin air.]
I mean, probably wouldn't be much use otherwise.

.....

Wait. You mean that they gave that ability too?!

Well, uh, ain't too familiar with Nonah, but if you don't mind travellin' cities, we often got plenty of people, including girls, at The Red Branch in Maurita Falls.

And how far away is that? I'm no stranger to traveling but these old bones can only put up with so much, y'know?

I wouldn't walk there! But uh, there should be a porter in your city that'll take you here!

[Oh but he so wanted to avoid technology as much as possible.]

Yeah, I went through one a those to get here. Not real keen on goin again, all the crazy gadgets here are a bit much for old Raven.

[Well then.]

Hows about a free drink on the house?

[Ah, now we're talking.]

... Any drink I want?
[He's going to get an entire bottle of wine don't make this deal.]

Any. Shoot, our profits are crazy. Y'want a bottle of somethin'? I'll give it to you if you promise to keep comin' back.

[And he knows what you look like now and he will call your ass out on the network.]

[ Traci gives a right smile, teasing time activated. ] You know you really don't look that old. You shouldn't be so hard on yourself there.

[He literally does it out of habit so he looks a little surprised. Most people just sort of roll with it. But then he processes it and apparently decides to take it as a compliment.]

Yeah? You think so? I mean, we mature older men have our own appeal. But I am pretty irresistible, so I can see where you're coming from, miss.

Wow. That is one seriously impressive ego you have Or wait let me guess it's really just confidence?

Doesn't have to be confidence. Maybe it is. Maybe I'm just a really good actor.

Kinda like to keep people guessing, y'know?

Rest assured that our monthly swearing-in events are always...eventful. You've missed October's but I'm sure November's won't dissapoint.

[Sounding a little jaded there, hmm? Hawkeye has her hand resting on her chin, looking altogether bored with another man looking for more cute girls.]

As for your cute women...I would hope that someone's told you by now that that is hardly the way to go about finding them.

[Worry not, at least you don't have to babysit this one, right Riza?]

Nope, you're the first. Though I'm sure open to suggestions on how I'm supposed to go about it. Seems like you know your way around these parts.

[Heaven knows she babysits plenty with the other one. That is a very long-suffering sigh, but at least she doesn't look angry.]

I have been here since January, though I don't frequency spend time in Nonah.

As for finding women, I wouldn't start by asking on the network for "cute women". Most of us are more than tired of such nonsense. You might consider actual conversations. [Riza tilts her head, thoughtful.] Tends to be less irritating to most.

[He shrugs, looking generally unfazed.]

Dunno about that. Seems to have gotten the attention of several pretty ladies, so I'd say it ain't completely unsuccessful!
[Does he not understand the difference between positive and negative attention or does he just not care? A mystery.]

[Staring. Just...staring.]

I do hope you have a preference for what sort of attention you're getting.

[Because honestly she's all of three seconds from hanging up on you. And not answering again. Because what is positive versus negative attention.]
