Netzach had not particularly wanted to help. When they had heard the pleas, they had curled into themselves, a particular burning dread in their chest. The pleas for help meant simply that things were going terribly, dreadfully wrong, and that things were beyond the possible control of where things started. It had happened many a time before, where a breach in one department would mean that their own department needed to come in, lest they lose everyone.  

This though, as time goes on, isn’t quite the same. Monsters don’t creep out of the darkness in the way they’re used to, and no matter how long Netzach looks for them, there are no golden eyes waiting out there. It helps, at least some, and so, they end up coming out of their hiding spaces to toe the edge of the known and unknown. 

Someone else is there too, a small relief from being truly alone in all of this.

“Are you planning to go out there?” Netzach starts the entire thing a bit awkwardly, gaze still stuck on the darkness. “I uh, I wanted to try, but I’m not too keen to try this by myself.” It’s not like they even have the useless pistol issued by the corporation. “So um, well, if you wouldn’t mind a partner, do you mind if I volunteer to tag along?”

Doppo’s eyes are on Jakurai’s hands even though he should be looking up at the stars. They are, in theory, infinitely more interesting than anything the doctor could be doing with those hands, maybe, but he’s chewing the inside of his lip and thinking and thinking and -- 

The Blackgrove has general merriment and wandering, but Doppo seems stuck in place.

“Ah -- sorry, sensei, did you say something?”

Miriam loves adventures like this. There were markets that she had attended in Europe with Katherine, bathed in snow and ever so spectacular in their construction. The compound was at times awash with flowers, and that was almost the same. But this, with all of its energy and life, is enough to send Miriam into an excited flurry as she tries to encounter everything that’s out there. 

Today though, she’s content to go through Kester Park in an attempt at finding something fun to buy. It’s easy, idle work, up until someone bumps into her, which sends her into the back of someone else.

“Oof-” She stumbles, trying not to grab the other in her attempts to right herself. “Excuse me, I just got pushed. Promise I’m not trying to knock you over.”

☾ — ⋆ ALFRED’S eyes are drawn immediately by the sound of cheerful music. A hand clasps his other wrist as he takes a step closer, peering into the commotion with a small frown.

It seems like there’s professional performers here, and he’s interested to watch. It’s been some time since he could stop running and his feet feel so heavy, but even the liveliness (and oh, everyone here seems so alive) of it all does nothing to quell his mounting anxiety, the hammering in his chest.

Eyes scan the crowd and he steps forward, one foot in front of the other -- slow, but not careful. He winces as he hears someone behind him and turns around, hands up.

“Ah, hello?”

• •  Genjo wasn’t sure how long he would be staying in this place, as if he had a choice- but he wasn’t blind to the fluctuating populous. People were leaving somehow.. yet he remained. He was tired of trying to find the way out. Besides the day that everything went dark this city didn’t seem like too bad of a place, not counting the fact he wasn’t here by choice. At the very least, he could be thankful for the lack of demon attacks on his life.

Sighing soft, Genjo leans his weight against the wall of Costco-Denny’s. It was an annoying place but their coffee wasn’t half bad. Sub-par coffee didn’t save him from their judgment when he got kicked out for trying to light his cigarette though. The flame of his lighter ignites with one flick and the tip of his cigarette lights with a soft sizzle. A deep inhale is taken and his spiked nerves settle just enough that he could almost relax, if it wasn’t for the staring.

“ what? ...I’m outside. “ And the cup of coffee inside was getting cold.

it had taken Ian a while to get used to being able to not only manipulate water while on dry land, but to conjure it seemingly out of nowhere. as a somewhat magical being, of course he believed in magic, but this was something completely new and, as such, was slightly off-putting. creating a vortex while submerged in the water was one thing-- summoning a buckets worth of water out of thin air was another entirely.

however, the spell granted to him turned out to be quite useful. not only was it terribly hot outside during the day, periodically dousing himself with water kept his water withdrawals to a minimum. they had been coming on more frequently than he’d experienced back home and, with few safe places to shift into siren form, it was...worrisome, really. there was nothing he could do about it but manage them as best as he could, though.

as he dumps another spells worth of water atop his head, Ian shakes his head not unlike a wet dog, flinging water droplets everywhere. this would have been perfectly fine...had there not been someone nearby. someone just close enough to get lightly splattered with water.

“Uh...” while he’s sure the water didn’t hurt him, even Ian has enough self-awareness to try and apologize. “My bad. I guess be glad it wasn’t a full bucket? Still not sure how to control this all that well.”

he’d been walking in the park, trying to get his thoughts together and figure something out before he started to feel even more useless than he already did, when he thought he heard a small mew from a nearby tree. a stray, maybe? that definitely called for a firefighter! sure, he didn’t climb trees a whole lot, but it couldn’t be that hard.

except...this tree didn’t have many footholds, and he found himself slipping about halfway up. before he fell completely, he noticed someone walking by, and twisted midair to avoid them. unceremoniously, Galo fell right on his rear.

“Ow, ow-- What kind of firefighter falls out of a tree like that?” he mutters under his breath, before remembering he just narrowly avoided landing on another person. hopping up to his feet, Galo looks somewhere between embarrassed and apologetic. “Sorry about that-- Lost my footing, I guess!”
