Entry tags:
you say I got karma to collect; (OPEN)
Who:
Rin Tousaka & your poor unfortunate soul.
What: Generic mingle log with prompts, but feel free to add your own. I'm super flexible.
When: September 1st ~ September 7th.
Where: Throughout the city.
( 1. Newbie Housing )
[ Rin's the kind of gal that doesn't stray far from her "home" now that she has one. Not that she allows her roommate(s) to ever see her. Locked indoors in her room with a chair, she goes to extreme levels to remain a NEET. It isn't out of hate for those around her, but because Lunamon wishes to have more privacy along with Rin's desire to continue work on her D-Terminal undisturbed. However, this is one of those rare times that she's actually out and about! Sometimes her arms may be full of bags from one of the shops or with books from the library; either way, she can use a hand if there's anyone nearby willing. ]
( 2. City limits )
[ Throughout the week, Rin's hard at work with picking up stray documents found within the abandoned buildings. One might mistake this for cleaning up the litter, but for someone who's proficient in enough languages, this is what she uses to help decipher certain things. Plus, who knows what other clues she might find? Some of the buildings she enters alone though can't really be safe for a girl in shoes like that, right? ]
( 3. Nighttime )
[ Part of her skill in dodging potential other Chosen is to be out at all sorts of hours. This is why she's perched up along the roof of one of the buildings across from a river to stare at Palette Town with a bored look. Something about the scene really seems unnerving; maybe she's used to sitting by herself on rooftops? That sort of thought is kind of silly to have, don't you think? ]
( 4. Any )
[ Hit me up with a prompt you feel works or coordinate with me @

"Things may get sleepy around here, but where I come from all the best stuff happens in the dead of night."
She slowly and silently lit on the edge of the building and balanced expertly with the sure footed confidence of a cat.
no subject
Rin asked with the intention of giving her the chance to explain. That would be the proper thing to do; listen through to anything she had to say about her world and learn more. For Rin, it could possibly keep her interested long enough to soak up more time.
"You do this often there too or is this place an exception?"
no subject
"Of course~" she smirked folding her arms and studying the girl "late night rooftop runs, maybe the occasional breaking and entering if I was in the mood. Then of course you've got night clubs and shady bars worth exploring for the contrast in atmosphere." While she didn't like the drinks as much in shady bars there was something beautiful in the ambiance and mellow that they provided.
"Yourself?"
no subject
"California exists though I'm not sure of the validity of a city called that." Rin explained casually without a second thought. It'd be alright to admit she's from Earth; she's yet to meet many who weren't. "Not that I was there more than once, but I may have traveled through the United States a bit. I can't honestly recall."
no subject
"Can't recall? Either it's been a long time or you've had something more pressing in your life to keep your attention." She reasoned.
no subject
"It was part of my job to do that. I guess being able to see that much of the world is one thing, but it might suck for someone who just wanted a home to settle down in. I'm not that kind of person so don't get me wrong that I brought it up, but I can see why it wouldn't appeal to others."
no subject
"Got any particular favorite places you've been?"
no subject
Then again Rin has always been a person who did things her own way regardless of others. If traveling the world was something she wanted to do, the rest of the world was going to have to work along with her on that.
"Surely if you were persistent enough, they would have followed. As for a favorite place, who knows... It feels as if it's been forever."
no subject
"It would have been more trouble then it was worth. Those goons wouldn't know culture or style if it fell out of the sky and put a hole in the ground." She could just imagine the chaos those morons would have caused in other countries.
"Frankly, they're an embarrassment. The more I think about it the better off I think I am. Too bad I had to learn that lesson here where I don't have my powers." And then silently she added,
Or a sense of purpose.
no subject
Leave it to Rin to narrow in on a simple thing like that. If anything, she wanted to help her better understand if she was a solo player or if she needed her teammates to endure whatever this world threw at her. For Rin, she had always been alone, so she didn't need to rely on the comfort that others provided.
Others often in fact held her back.
"Everyone is usually embarrassed by their friends. It's because you care so much that it seriously pisses you off to let them behave that way."
no subject
"I'm gonna need more time to be sure. It's not like I've really put my thieving skills to the test since getting here."
Noir piped up from her backpack, reminding her he was there "Oh I don't know about that. You've done plenty of running and dodging. That sort of counts."
She rolled her eyes "you have no idea what I mean. Go back to sleep."
no subject
Digimon. Not partner. It would be difficult for convince Rin to fight alongside anyone else since her Servant died valiantly, so she often kept Lunamon coddled and well protected.
"Anyway, what's there not to steal here? We're all poor and have to work for a living after they kidnapped us. Kind of frustrating to think about, don't you agree?"
no subject
As for the subject of her hobby, "Well the amount of fine art around here leaves me wanting. And there's not a particularly well established black market for things. So mostly I just steal what I want and need for my apartment. My day job is just so I don't get bored." She smirked.
"It's very frustrating to think that we get uprooted by the powers that be to save this world, and they don't see fit to give us everything for free to keep us happy. Come on, how are we supposed to work in these conditions? Those apartments don't even have kitchens."
no subject
At least it was another reason to consider getting one.
"There's seriously no good art around? Why not impersonate some other famous thief and steal things like landmarks. Imagine doing that--they'd never shut up about it."
no subject
"I like the way you think though." She smirked thoughtfully stroking her chin. "Theft for the challenge without monetary gain. There's something almost romantic about the notion." She chuckled.
"Of course I'm still reworking alot of my methods since we've been powered down."
no subject
At least she had enough faith in the stranger herself. Rin had certainly been doing a lot of that herself; making up for what has been taken from her by compensating elsewhere.
no subject
"I've been making improvements here and there on the situation. Like you said, compensations. A girl has to be prepared after all. We can't leave it all to our monsters. And especially not to the adults around here." But she was smiling warmly at the stranger, glad she had gone out for a run tonight.
no subject
"It seems like some days that I'm one of the oldest ones here. Having been here since the start too--well, not exactly the start. It appears there were some Chosen here for a significant amount of time prior."
no subject
"I had heard that. Some are suspicious of their true intentions since they don't exactly walk among the commoners. But we seem to be the more capable chosen given these missions...despite how many traumatized children come stumbling out of those dark fields."
no subject
At least that would be her stated opinion. Funny how she ended up changing her mind a little later. "I guess some people are really desperate for money here..."
no subject
With a dismissive wave, "And of course there are the adrenaline junkies who are hoping for a fight."
