Just a small heads up! Next week I will be away from Tunglr for the Thankgiving break! So I will be setting up my Queue from the 24th until the remainder of month. Least until I get back. IMs on Tumblr will be delayed massively as a result. You can like this post if you are interested in talking through Discord! Will be chilling this week getting the queue all set up! Hope y'all are doing well today!

"I don't mind if you give me a little bit to clean up in it first. It's a bit of a mess right now." The only part of her home that sometimes did get messy. Plus she did have some paintings in there she wasn't exactly open to just showing anyone. It was one of the few healthy ways Dez did get her feelings out.. a shame most of her coping methods were unhealthy. "I've never been to the batting cages. I'm not very good at sports but.. I think I'd like to go with you one day if you'd like. It might be fun together.. as long as you don't laugh at me for being terrible." She spoke with a smile. "Although chess I'm good at." She was pretty good at anything that required logic.. although she made the worst decisions and often seemed a fool. "I wouldn't mind hiking.. I'm not the strongest person.. so hopefully you won't be too frustrated if I need to take a few breaks." She was a very slender woman with a weak constitution, but she loved being outside. So she wasn't opposed to it.

[obsidixnsamurai]

Yasuke brows raised. Pleased that Dez was willing to invite him into something that involved her creative hobbies. "No rush. whenever the time presents itself." There was a motion waving his hands to let her know that this would something to handle when time allowed it in the future. He could only meet her comment with a small chuckle. "I'll try not to be too 'scathing' then if I take you to the batting cages. Wasn't exactly hitting clear shots when I started anyway. Just fun to swing and hit for the fences. Can always show how some day if you got time." Yasuke never play for competition with batting cages. It was a nice distraction and chance to get some major catharsis. As all it would take is just one hit to set your mood ablaze he found. Yasuke takes a moment to place a reassuring hand when she expressed her initial doubts about the possibilities of hiking. Though, his smile was ever present. Weak constitution? Suppose he'd have to make some accommodations for that so nothing ill comes from pushing her out of her comfort zone. Last thing he wanted was to compromise her mood. Especially when she has been kind to him thus far since their first meeting. "Hardly. You needn't worry. I am the sort that travel on paths that give someone some amazing sights to see. On pathways that most can clear. Honestly sounds like camping would be a fun experience for you to try. Stay in one big place, then venture out without making large treks. Nice compromise no?"

--- ❝ You could never impose, Yasuke! ❞ Such a thought was an AFFRONT to her senses, he was one of kindest, most polite individuals she had ever met and he would always be welcomed in her home! Wiping her hands with the handkerchief she had pulled from her satchel, ridding her fingers of most of the soil, Emily gave a shake of her head. ❝ I think I have everything I need here, but thank you! ❞ With a small grunt, the novelist rose from the grass and brushed out the skirt of her dress as she did so -- adjusting her satchel's strap so it sat more COMFORTABLY upon her shoulder. ( & returning the handkerchief to its depths ). The sun was still high in the sky, indicating it was close enough to noon, possibly a little later, so they still had more than enough time before DARKNESS fell. ❝ We could actually stay here a little longer first, if you want. Bask in the sunshine and all that. ❞

It was when she turned to face him fully that Emily proceeded to laugh at his earlier tale, wondering what manner of writer could possibly be THAT driven ( pun intended ) to rid themselves of writer's block. ❝ Drawing or painting is enough for me, mostly! If it's not, you just have to let the block steer its course, it passes eventually. Your other writer friend certainly has unique methods - I never would have thought of that! ❞

[obsidixnsamurai]

"Heh, figure I would ask. Don't want to take up more time than needed is all." He appreciated the reassurance from her. Yasuke wasn't sure how Emily was when it came to needing some alone time. So best to shoot his thoughts straight. The resounding answer definitely put him at ease to not dwell on it much further. The taller man nodded at Emily's suggestion. Extra time? He could work with this; he thought. Yasuke found solace in being outdoors. Just moving about in general. Helps keeps him moving and avoids him being antsy with his thoughts when left to them for too long. "Well, if we are gonna do that, why don't see what we find along the trail? Might be good to see what we can sight see." There was a muted excitement in his tone at the prospect. One that could mean a good inspiration to sketch in his journal. "What, you wouldn't entertain an adrenaline fueled danger ride?" It was playful prodding to accompany her laughter. Definitely not something he would entertain but hey, different strokes for different folks as they said in the states no? "But, what about something as relaxing as a ride coasting along the road? Surely you can't say no to that at least." He added as he got his gear in order ready to accompany the woman. "Perhaps when you bring me back to your place later. Maybe I can see some of your drawings if your willing. Here. I will even let you have a sneak peak of some of my own that I keep on me." Well that wasn't really his intention since they are but a small piece for his journal. He felt comfortable with the woman at least to share a few snippets of it.

[obsidixnsamurai]

“Have you been drinking? You look terrible.”

He could only give a particular look at the woman. Drinks? That's amusing. Did his exhaustion return him to those days? Seemed like it was only a hazy memory. Where Yasuke would it was one drink he would say. One drink would turn into a few, a few to many. The a white flash would bring him back to the present. One that crushed him senseless. He doesn't miss those hard times in the slightest. There is a moment where he could on clasp and bridge his fingers between the bridge of his nose to reorient himself She was met with a momentary silence to gather his thoughts. Since she seemed curious and concerned about his state. This will pass, As it often did. "Drinking? No. That type of drink has not touched my lips for a long while.." He remarked. His arms would cross over as he continued. "The past few days have been trying is all. This will pass." As he often told him. He was rather apprehensive to divulge more than he needed to. He seemed to have recall this woman also give a similar response when he encountered her sprained. "You needn't worry. A moment to rest a spell. Will be right as rain." He comments. "See you overcame your sprain just fine have you?" Changing the subject seemed the ideal out that didn't focus on what he already knew for his case.

"Ahh, it's broken!" The shelf housing one of her vast collection of books was precariously tilted, the wood cracked in a way that made it obvious she'd need a whole new shelf. "Do you know how to fix or replace this? I'm a little lost!"

[ Unprompted! ] Yasuke could her the exclamation from Emily across the other side. What was going on? There he was was brisking into the room when he had noticed the collection of books and problem that was waiting to evolve into something messy and disastrous. Seeing the woman frazzled as she was. Yasuke reached out a hand to rub against Emily's arm gently. "Ah.. That is a problem indeed.. Still nothing that can't be overcome." Perhaps way too early to say that with 100% certainty. But he figures that Emily needed some reassurance. Fixing and mending things was a staple back home. Born out of necessity when one couldn't fix. The feeling of worry was shared with the way the shelf looked that would cause a cascade of damage to her books. "How about we focus on getting those books out of harms way? I will ask that you will trust me to see if its something I can mend or I can bring someone to mend your shelf first. Come on, I will reach for the books on high and carry them. Stack one's you can get and pile them on top. Can carry plenty and move from there yes?"

"When the winds are fierce that they howl across the land. Most would be cautious. Think of it as omens. Me however. I am used to these sort of winds. For myself. They center me. Back to a time where things were simpler. That of home. We didn't have much, but that was the beauty of it. we made things work in times of winter with what we had and in turn, thrived in the good times." The wilds blew into a soothing breeze. with spikes that sounded sharp when things picked him. He spoke to the other while kept his hands warm as one could. He looked at the other. "No doubt you have something that takes you back to those times by winter's arrival." @ujima wanted a winter starter!

[lachrymosestorm]

Dez couldn't help but feel her face turn a light shade of pink. Her attention shifted to look over at Yasuke and she was quiet a moment before her features softened and the corners of her lips curled upwards into a warm smile. "Thank you.. That's.. That's so sweet of you.. Thank you.." She whispered softly as she gave a shy smile.

[obsidixnsamurai]

"Your welcome.." He supposed that his words touched the woman warmly. He takes a moment to focus back into the present of the conversation at hand. "You smile suits you. More so when things shine a light on it." He takes a moment to close his eyes, relaxing in place to where they sat. "Sorry I lost focus there Dez.. Could say that some of these nights get long and only add on.." He rubs his neck, feeling apologetic for zoning out when it was time between them.

Oh f*ck, she didn't think she'd get this far. Even asking at all was wildly unusual (for her), but she was about five drinks too deep to have thought through the consequences of this. Shit.

" I, uh ... well— " she stammers. F*ck, get it together you idiot! Just throw out anything at this point! " ... Do you wanna take a job with me? It pays well. "

NOT THAT.

[obsidixnsamurai]

"A job huh?" He suppose that only ignited his curiosity more. Wonder what sort of detail needed two people to get this done. His arm folded as he looks into the young woman's eyes. "Gonna need more info on what this job is exactly before I can accept.." There is a moment where he motions his hands so that the woman could sit with him by the booth.

[lachrymosestorm]

"You keep staring at me.. did you need something?"

[obsidixnsamurai]

"Was I? Sorry about that.." Yasuke took a moment to anchor himself back to the present. Long evenings definitely were adding up . "Not really needing something.. Was just enjoying how you looked underneath the moonlight. Compliments you well." There was a faint smile to accompany it. Was it perhaps bold to let that swing like a sledgehammer? Perhaps, he'd handle what comes from speaking his 2 cents.
