Oro Kagura

[i-like-woodworking2]

Leona knocks on his bedroom door, poking her head in, both of her dogs on her heels.

“Hey baby, how are you?” She cocks her head cheerfully. “I’ve got news too”

@leona-gaia

Oro looked up from the book he was reading and smiled. "Hey, baby, what is it?"

[leona-gaia]

Leona smiles, coming to sit beside him. “My lease is finally up”

[i-like-woodworking2]

Oro's smile widened. "Really?"

[leona-gaia]

“Yes, finally!”

[i-like-woodworking2]

"That's great, baby, now we finally have an excuse to quit dragging our feet and move the rest of your things in."

[leona-gaia]

“Exactly,” Leona grinned, kissing his cheek. “I’m very, very excited… especially with how much I’m over here anyway- I feel more comfortable here than I have in any home I’ve lived in, honestly”

[i-like-woodworking2]

Oro pulled her closer and gave her a proper kiss. "I'm really, really glad about that." He kissed her forehead. "I love you, you know that?"

[leona-gaia]

Leona’s smile made the kiss a bit awkward, but her arms slipped around his neck as she brushed their noses together. “I know, baby… and I love you, too.” She kisses his nose playfully. “You almost make me wish I had a soul so I could sign it over to you, my dear”

[i-like-woodworking2]

"Oh, come on. You have a perfectly wonderful personality that I'd gladly take over any soul any day."

[leona-gaia]

She laughs, nodding. “Oh I know, I appreciate that,” she informs him

[i-like-woodworking2]

"Good. Because, like, who needs a soul? In this economy?"

[not-a-vigilante]

"When I was five I almost got kidnapped by some old lady."

[i-like-woodworking2]

"Care to elaborate, Emerson?"

[not-a-vigilante]

"When I was five some old lady tried to lure me in her car with free kittens. I almost went with her.."

[i-like-woodworking2]

"What stopped you? Also, did she actually have kittens, or was that just a bald-faced lie?"

[not-a-vigilante]

"Nah she was lying. My dad."

[i-like-woodworking2]

"Ahhhhh seems reasonable."

[i-like-woodworking2]

Leona knocks on his bedroom door, poking her head in, both of her dogs on her heels.

[not-a-vigilante]

"Does anyone want to hear about brain-eating amoebas??"

[i-like-woodworking2]

"The ones in lakes?"

[not-a-vigilante]

"Yeah! Those ones."

[i-like-woodworking2]

"Those things are horrifying. I refuse to put my head under the water in lakes in any capacity because of them."

[not-a-vigilante]

"I don't know how good it makes you feel.. but they live in warm freshwater. Oh and you can also find them in tap water..which is bit rarer but still."

[i-like-woodworking2]

"So I'm never drinking tap water again-"

[not-a-vigilante]

"Hey, the changes are really small, besides you would need to breathe in the water through your nose anyway."

[i-like-woodworking2]

"Logically, I know that." *cracks open a bottle of water* "I'm Oro, by the way."

[not-a-vigilante]

"I'm Emerson. Nice to meet you."

[i-like-woodworking2]

[greelin]

[as if this is not a normal and natural human thing to want] yeah i just really want to connect with people for some reason. Like some weird loser freak

Hello, Oro.

@julien-munroe

Uh. Hello? Have we met?

[julien-munroe]

Yes. It's alright, though.

[i-like-woodworking2]

Sorry. Would you remind me of your name?

[julien-munroe]

My name is Julien. Julien Munroe.

[i-like-woodworking2]

Well, it's good to meet you again, apparently, Julien. I'm a bit surprised I don't remember the first time, you seem like a memorable person. *Gestures around the store* Would you like to buy anything?

[julien-munroe]

I'm sure I would. I don't know what, though.

[i-like-woodworking2]

Well, let me show you around! I'm sure something will catch your eye. *guides him toward one area of the shop* These are the smaller, sort of trinket-y things. They can fit in most reasonably-sized pockets. Excellent gifts, especially last-minute.

[julien-munroe]

Oh. These are beautiful. You made them?

[i-like-woodworking2]

*nods* I make everything I sell. My sister helps a bit, too, but I do most of it and have for a while.

[julien-munroe]

That's amazing. You're amazing.

[i-like-woodworking2]

Oh. Uh. Thank you. *looks mildly embarrassed and quickly moves to the next area of the shop* This stuff is the larger, more practical things, mostly. Some are just scaled-up trinkets, but the rest are bowls, spoons, cutting boards, etc.

[julien-munroe]

I do like these cutting boards.

[i-like-woodworking2]

Great! I have a good amount of these made, so there's plenty of variety to choose from. And if there's nothing here you like, custom pieces are an option.

[julien-munroe]

*looking through his cutting boards and selecting one* Hm. I think this is nice. I like the color variation it has. Where do you get the wood?

[i-like-woodworking2]

Oh, there are plenty of trees around here, and the mutation certainly helps with making a lot from a little, you know?

[julien-munroe]

I see. It's a very interesting mutation.

[i-like-woodworking2]

Thank you! I think? I believe yours had something to do with rocks and stuff, right?

[julien-munroe]

Well, I meant it genuinely. It makes you intriguing.

Indeed. I have geological chronoception, which means I can perceive and control earth through time.

[i-like-woodworking2]

Well, thank you, then! I appreciate the compliment *smiles*

Whoa! That's very awesome and niche and bonkers, very very cool.

[julien-munroe]

Thank you. I should see if I can make anything nice with it like you do with yours.

[i-like-woodworking2]

I bet you totally could! *takes the cutting board and walks to the counter to ring it up* You could turn it into lava and then shape it into something and harden it again, maybe?

[julien-munroe]

I'm afraid I'd burn things.

[i-like-woodworking2]

Try it on sand or dry dirt or something like that, something that won't burn.

[julien-munroe]

Good idea. I'd give you one of my first successful attempts, if I have any.

[i-like-woodworking2]

*beams* Awesome! That'd be great, thank you. *rings up the cutting board* Your total is... 55 dollars. Would you like it in a bag?

[julien-munroe]

No, thank you.

[i-like-woodworking2]

Alright, then. And... *looks around for a moment, then grabs a palm-sized carved elk* Here, on the house. For a lovely conversation.

[julien-munroe]

Oh! Thank you so much. It's adorable.

[i-like-woodworking2]

Of course! It's not every day I get customers as interesting as you.
