[RP] Wandering and Idle
Dec. 21st, 2008 02:41 amSetting: Cite de Reboldoeux, noontime.
Char: Sandalphon.
The December breeze was freezing, even in the middle of the day, he realized, and he hadn't brought a scarf with him. How troublesome. He had just come from visiting Yrazephorah in their cousins' house in Auch, and the very long walk left him aching for some way to rest himself without actually resting.
He had settled for buying some hot chocolate and some bits of bread to feed to the few crows that were persistent enough to stay in the middle of the city during the cold season. He casually tore off a bit and hand-fed it to the large one that decided to perch itself right next to him on the bench, and he restrained a shiver.
H-How did I ever survive walking, I wonder?
Char: Sandalphon.

THANATOS
Date: 2008-12-20 07:04 pm (UTC)Finally, someone to talk to!
He walkes over.
Yo! :D
SANDALPHON
Date: 2008-12-20 07:07 pm (UTC)Ah, it's you! Hello!
He shifts slightly and pulls the bread out of reach of the crow, who pecked his sleeve in reply.
It's been a while since we've last met. Thanatos, wasn't it?
THANATOS
Date: 2008-12-20 07:11 pm (UTC)Yeah, but you can call me Thana. So how've you been? What are you doing out here alone? And on such an unfriendly day too.
SANDALPHON
Date: 2008-12-20 07:19 pm (UTC)Well, as you can see- He motions to the crow.
I'm not exactly 'alone' in a sense.
The crow, which clearly did not appreciate being rejected, flew up and gave Sandalphon's brow a light peck. He made a small noise and stood up, brushing his bangs away from his face and allowing his glasses to fall to the ground.
The crow, seizing its opportunity, quickly snatched the thin wire-frame glasses in its beak and flew some yards away, pecking to check if it was in any way edible.
Ack- Oh my. That was rather-erm-embarrassing wasn't it, aha-
RUE
Date: 2008-12-20 07:29 pm (UTC)(Muffled in a scarf, with his hands shoved deep into his pockets, walking down the street. He's muttering to his companion.)
--So Rani says, I managed to cut a deal with both gunsellers, we need an extra room, do you mind moving in with Lane so Raye and Nissa can have one. I don't really mind--we end up sleeping on the couch too often anyway--although I'm not sure what the neighbours will think if they find out we have a man and a woman sleeping in the same room. Do you think Rani might be able to persuade Kayze to share hers?
LANE
Date: 2008-12-20 07:31 pm (UTC)Mmhmm.
Wait, Kayze, share? No WAY.
RUE
Date: 2008-12-20 07:32 pm (UTC)RUE and LANE
Date: 2008-12-20 07:33 pm (UTC)(Lane snickers.)
LANE
Date: 2008-12-20 07:35 pm (UTC)(There's a crow hopping down a low fence-wall. He waves one hand at it and it drops something, flies up, and is gone.)
Heh, crows.
...Wait, what's that?
[Should they know either Sandy or Thana?]
Re: LANE
Date: 2008-12-20 07:37 pm (UTC)SANDALPHON
Date: 2008-12-20 07:43 pm (UTC)He turned to Thanatos.
Er, Thanato... Thana. Would you excuse me for a minute?
Breaking into a run to reclaim his glasses before the crow could think of flying off with it, he didn't notice the pair walking along the road until he practically collided with the fighter's side.
I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry and-ah my glasses- I'm sorry I didn't see you two!
RUE
Date: 2008-12-20 07:50 pm (UTC)LANE
Date: 2008-12-20 07:50 pm (UTC)Oh hey, you all right?
THANATOS
Date: 2008-12-20 07:55 pm (UTC)You can't be very comfortable down there. Need a hand?
SANDALPHON
Date: 2008-12-20 07:59 pm (UTC)I-
He took a deep breath, and addressing both Thanatos and the two strangers:
I'm really really sorry, I'm really just causing tr- (he shivered) ouble out here, aren't I? Sirs, I do apologize, so so so much- and- ah
He fiddled with the ribbon at his neck, not knowing what else to say.
LANE
Date: 2008-12-20 08:07 pm (UTC)Thanks.
THANATOS
Date: 2008-12-20 08:16 pm (UTC)He pats Sandalphon on the shoulder.
Honest mistake. I'm sure the gentlemen here will forgive you, won't good fellows? Why don't we all go somewhere... warmer. Though I rather like the cold myself, heh.
It should be noted that Thanatos is dressed rather lightly for the current weather, wearing only a rather thin coat over a his shirt, and no scarfs or gloves.
I'm Thanatos, by the way.
SANDALPHON
Date: 2008-12-20 08:22 pm (UTC)He sighs, brushing the snow off of them and shivering again. He felt like an idiot.
I think I should.. Get going.
[really im leaving in a while hahaha, you guys continue when im gone]
THANATOS
Date: 2008-12-20 08:42 pm (UTC)Those aren't broken, I hope. Your glasses, I mean. And that your forehead doesn't hurt too much. Stupid crow. Anyway. Leaving already? Well, here.
He takes off his coat and holds it out to Sandalphon.
Looks like you need it more than I do. You can give it back next time.
He smiles amiably. Take care.
SANDALPHON
Date: 2008-12-20 08:45 pm (UTC)He smiles slightly, putting his glasses on again. He gives a short nod and drapes the coat around his shoulders.
Thank you. I promise I'll give it back next time I see you.
He turns to the two men he bumped into, and bows to them.
I'm so, so sorry again... I hope you'll forgive me. Excuse me now, I must be off-
He runs off, flushed.
RUE
Date: 2008-12-20 08:55 pm (UTC)[Chances for misunderstanding? They were pretty annoyed with other matters before, so Sandy might be picking up on that to think they're angrier at him than they actually are.
SANDY IS A DISNEY PRINCESS Y/N?]
LANE
Date: 2008-12-20 08:53 pm (UTC)Oh hi, I'm Lane. (he waves, rather vaguely) My partner, Rue.
Must be nice to not feel the cold. Sometimes I swear we're going to freeze in our sleep.(grin)
[LOL I FAIL AT RP. IT TAKES ME SO LONG TO COME UP WITH RESPONSES.]
THANATOS
Date: 2008-12-20 09:00 pm (UTC)Nice to meet you both. The one who, uh, left was Sandalphon. He's a bit shy, but he's a nice guy.
*kicks at the ground*
Are you guys busy or something? I know a pub near here that's open even at this hour. Not the best place you can find, but its clean and warm. Walking around with a wet coat won't do you any good. But if you had other plans...
[Ahahaha... if this is really going to be their first meeting... the RULES! xD, or we could just make this a 'passing by moment' and therefor not count?]
LANE
Date: 2008-12-20 09:07 pm (UTC)[HAHAHA THE RULES.]
THANATOS
Date: 2008-12-20 09:15 pm (UTC)[ok hang on, i'm going to make a new thread to haul in Sera xD]
SERA
Date: 2008-12-20 09:21 pm (UTC)There you are, you son of a...
In a few quick steps, she has Thanatos' ear within reach, and has no qualms about twisting it a little.
I'm hungry, and I'm tired, so you better have a good excuse for disappearing and making me come out after you and --- where's your coat?
THANATOS
Date: 2008-12-20 09:24 pm (UTC)I was bored. I gave my coat to Sandy. And this is Lane and Rue. *he gestures at them* Fellows, this is my angel of a sister. Ow-- you don't need to twist that hard! Anyway, we were just gonna grab a few drinks to warm up, and now that you mention it, its time for lunch. Why don't you join us for a bite?
LANE
Date: 2009-01-05 04:50 pm (UTC)[Let's take this slowly? :DDD]
