i beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies You know, this could all be a hell of a lot worse.
Sure they were in a different timeline filled to the brim with beasts and baddies and God-Knows-What-Else because some people sure do love their god damned secrets and all the fucking angst in the world and lets not even begin to think about what's happening at home--! But it was fine!
They weren't dead yet so it was fine.
...
They needed to do something before they went crazy.
And what was the easiest thing to do when you had no money, no standards, and no regard of the cold?
Busk.
Town Square seemed like a good place. It was a central location and with how big it was they didn't really feel like a nuisance. Kynan had "borrowed" a small pail from Res and placed it in front of their feet. There was a small sign taped to it; [Requests and spare change welcome!  ].
Even if no one else was out and about in this ""cold weather"", singing alone was more than enough to sooth their soul...But, really, with how their voice carried someone was bound hear it.
"Now we are ready to head for the horn! Wa-a-y, he-e-y, roll and go!"

She happened to be walking back from the Cafe she'd met Nathan with. A smile looking rather purest in its humane form. Oh look, its a Completely Normal human... With completely normal human intentions, this roleplay ending no way in hell one person still oh so innocent left... She wore a simple white and black striped sweater, with blue jeans, a small little hat right on top the color of black. She held what looked to be a tiny purse.
The music is what caught her attention, she walked up seeing the individual singing, placing a ten dollar bill. Giving an innocent smile. Then she just stood there listening, thinking.. How she just went on a simple normal date.. No murdering, no time travel Relapse, no.. Fear.. No.. Wait. He cured her fear, she actually felt better.. Like a weight had been lifted. Why..
She felt so great, when the singer was done she gave a gentle wave, "Hi. That was really pretty. You're new around here aren't you?" she deep down was Praising herself for not judging this person to be some homeless being.. Or some evil Creature. Yes, New World here she comes! Brighter Future ever than before! |

i beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies Music was always the best distraction.
Losing yourself in a song was the best feeling in the world! Even if it meant you were blind to the world for a bit....At least this was town square, nothing bad happened in town square!
...They didn't think so, at least...
"...The anchors on board and the cable's all stored, to be rollickin' Randy-dandy-oooo~...oh?" Kynan blinked a few times, cocking their head to the side at the sight of the stranger.
Who was that again..? Female, black hair, innocent vibes...Abigail? They couldn't remember any other female characters besides Danny and Hun...were there any other female characters..?
"Oh, thank you! And another thanks for the generous donation!" Kynan grinned, holding a hand out to Abby. "You'd be correct! Kynan Felix, just dropped into town a few weeks ago. Nice to meet you! I take it that you're a local? You were able to pinpoint me as an outsider, after all...or was it 'cause of my accent?"
...Talking to someone you technically knew was hard.
At least it was Abby and not say...Jacob. Or Zotz. Or Caelum. Or...you know, what was a list better not listed.

She gave a small gentle laugh, "You could say this is my home town, so Yes.. Even besides the accent, I know just about everyone here. You're welcome, So Kynan Felix? Interesting name, for one singing on the street. Kinda reminds me the few good things about this town." She pulled the hair back behind her ear still smiling. There was a small sadness that slowly began to creep up, was trusting Nathan a mistake? She shook her head, the smile had been lost for a couple seconds returned brighter. "I guess... This is a Hello, I'm Abigail, A college student here. Just Nice to meet you. Guess I'll be going." She turned to walk away... Not all sure what else to say, people.. She wasn't very nice to people.. No, rather it was Harder to be Nice to people.

i beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies "It's Welsh for Hound. Fits the whole bard vibe, right?"
Abby seemed...sad about something. Poor kid, almost made them want to comfort her after everything she's been through. But they highly doubted the last thing she needed was some random, ex-god of the world trying that.
"Abigail...that's a really nice name you got there!" Best to play a clueless human. Besides, it didn't seem like she wanted to chat..? ...Shame they couldn't influence their characters anymore. Res wasn't the best at comforting but at least them and Abby were on good terms. "Oh, yeah, go if you need to! Good luck in your college courses, I know how tough they can be..."
As Abigail walked off, Kynan took the moment to grab the 10$ from the pail. That was some chips and a drink from the corner store- a full meal for an art major.
...Wonder who else was out and about..?
Maybe they could get a couple more bucks and get a burger at Greasys!
"And it's go, Boys, go, they'll time your every breath! And every day you're in this place you're two days nearer death! But you go-o-o~" ...Or, get enough money and get a bodhran. That'd be fun!

Abigail gave a nod, still smiling.. Still so happy.. Still Oh so Clueless what was going to happen To Nathan.... Poor Poor thing.
She stared down at her phone tilting it this way and that, Hmm.. If she could just get a better signal.. OH! There it was, just right there... She stood there typing in coordinates, codes, and video game artillery.. Before... Stopping right at the sound of music.. Her eyes grew large, trailing looking for the main source. To see Some is thing that didn't quite fit, she walked over tilting her head. "Are you a Boy or a girl? Why is your voice so pretty? Can mine be like that?" Was there a hack for that? She wondered.. Quickly searching the web on her device for such a hack.. Before suddenly pauins noticing the Ten dollar bill, Who overpaid this person so much? She tilted her head, digging into her pocket to pull out....
4 Bullets, A small Hacking chip, AND A dime. She kept the dime, dropping the other things, smiling cheerfully, "There! One step closer to World Domination, Cool Right? Its for your Voice, and weirdness. Helps." She then tilt her head a little bit after reading some sort of log on her phone, "You're not in the American Citizen Database, OH! Are you An Illegal Canadian? Can I show you to the cops?" |

i beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies This time Kynan finished as the newcomer walked up.
Aw, wasn't she a cute kid! It was nice to know that some people trusted this town enough to let their kids wander around.
"Neither, actually!" They smiled down to the girl. "Thank you! I practiced and kept singing when I was a kid, and if you try your best I'm sure that you'll have a pretty voice too..."
Ah.
Kynan trailed off as the kid dug around her pocket and pulled out bullets and...a computer chip...huh. Did Ginger add in that "wallbreaker access" thing that Lym suggested..?
"...Oh, ah, well, thanks? I'll try and find a use for these..?" Who's kid was this..? Was there an adult somewhere? Kynan quickly glanced around, turning back when the kid mentioned the cops. Were there even cops still in town? Probably not, but they didn't want to take any chances.
They took a moment to dig around their bag. The box cutter was lost to the forest, but surely they had something else..? Hmmm..
"...Here, a good luck charm!" They took out a tiny glass vial. "Selenite, tigers eye, quartz...I'll give this to you if you don't rat me out?"
The kid seemed to agree as she took the vial and ran off. 10$ and a few potentially illegally gained bullets. Better than nothing..?
"...A recruitin' Sargent came our way from an inn near town at the close of day. He said "Young Johnny you're a fine young lad, would you like to march along behind a military band?".." They were curious at this point. What other weirdo would come along? How many songs could they recite off of memory? ...Would they get enough for a burger..?

I don't do well in the cold, curse this blood of mine for being weak! I just wish it would summer soon, oh I miss those fruit coolers. I shouldn't be out right now, but Edward is fuming and pecking my leg to go out and buy him those Tuna nuggets. I sighed as I stuffed my face on the scarf, god damn I should've used my teleportation spell, or, or ask Corbin to bring me to the Store- no wait, I'm afraid of heights. I groaned, stuffing my hands to my hoodie.
I heard a voice. Someone singing? But Christmas is over? I looked around only to see Inu, or Kynan? Which name do they prefer? I smiled and picked up my pace to meet them. "Hey! What are you doing there?" I asked with a smile before looking down. Bullets, chip and a dime? What the hell, bullets? "Where did you get those?" I asked him as I pointed to the bullets.

A man with black hair having 2 stripes of white, wore simple black skinny jeans and simple black sweater. His shoes were rather some sort of fashion designer boots, his height about average if not slightly above, the method of walking and standing that of a hipster or perhaps a super model modeling. The eyes had a slight intelligence light to them, as well perhaps flamboyant judging.
This man had been walking through the town lost in thought of exactly how he was suppose to create a new bond of friendship in this small state of a town. His eyes glazed over the various citizens walking around, before landing on the one singing, and watched as two girls walked up and left.. Followed with one, with white silver hair greeting the singer as if they were friends. This.. Might be the perfect opportunity to learn about the town. With a small smile, he calmly walked up, standing beside the two waiting for his turn.. When they gave him full attention, when they did so. He gave a small wave of greeting, "That was rather nice singing. Canadian correct? I have family up in Canada, they love the Northern Sky at night." He gave a soft delighted hum before asking, "I'm Diomente, just move into town.. Mind.. Giving me directions to the nearest grocery store? This place, seems awfully barren.." He pointed at the empty shops.. That were either closed up.. or were pretty useless in terms of.. food. |

i beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies Who knew this place was so lively? First Abigail, then that kid, and now Danny! This whole thing was a brilliant idea, they'd have to do this again sometime.
"Well you're a nice surprise!" Kynan grinned, prodding the pail with their foot. "My best! Thought this'd pass the time and give me something to do."
When Danny asked about the bullets, they just gave a shrug and bent down to pick them up. "Some kid. She knew I'm technically an illegal citizen which is concerning. Think I managed to bribe her not to tell anyone, but I guess we'll find out if it worked when the FBI shows up, right?"
As they were collecting the "goodies", it sounded like another person walked up.
Who was it this time? Someone they knew? Oh, maybe it was one of Lym's characters! Or one of Gingers? Well, whoever it was, it couldn't be anyone bad; it didn't seem like Danny reacted.
Kynan looked over as they stood up. Someone they didn't know in the slightest. Eh. Interesting at the very least, terrifying at the very most. "Thank you! You're the third person today to guess that and the third to be correct. Oooh? Family, eh? Where from?" They were willing to bet an easily google-able city. Toronto? Edmonton? Oh, maybe throw a curve ball and have it Quebec City. "...Well, it's nice to meet you! I'm Kynan, also new to town."
Grocery store, huh? Good question.
They just glanced over to Danny. She was the one who actually lived here after all.

I smiled even more, "You too! It's nice to see you here." I said delightfully. I nodded at him, slightly laughing, "It's not like police are gonna get you here. They've been inactive for like, 3 years now?" I tapped my chin in wonder. Was it 3 years or more? I don't really remember. I shrugged before looking at the stranger. I tilt my head and smiled at him as he introduced himself, "Danny Wolf. Nice to meet you Diomente." what the hell is that name? That's so weird. "The grocery store? Mm, just make a left turn there and you'll be able to see the mall." I pointed the direction out.
"What brings you here, uhh, Dio?" I asked him with a smile.
