[ action - for house 12 ]

[Nice and early in the morning, there'll be a wonderful noise coming from one of the empty bedrooms in house 12.

... Except not, because the noise is a loud THUD, followed by a groan and (if one is listening closely) a "dammit" and some mumbled complaining. Being dropped on the edge of an old mattress and immediately falling off of it onto the floor because of that isn't the best feeling to wake up to. Especially when you're just arriving in Luceti.

But uh, yeah. Good morning, house 12 residents!]

[ action - in the late afternoon to evening ]

[Now that he's gotten a fair chunk of his Luceti memories back, Yuri decides to head out that evening and refamiliarize himself with the village a little. Might as well try to get as much of his memory back before doing one of those "hey, I'm back" things, right? Well, it makes sense to him, anyway. He's more or less wandering all over the place in the village, but notably, he's stopping by the Smithy (might as well see if one of his swords is lying around there!), the Battle Dome (only to take a look at the place, though), and finally, the Good Spirits bar. Still, he may come across as a New Feather while he does his wandering, as he slows down a lot while he wanders - sometimes coming to full stops to look at areas or buildings.

Aside from those three places noted, he doesn't really hang around anywhere else in particular, but as he does slow to stops often in random places, feel free to catch him just about anywhere in the village.]

[No Yuri, he's not checking you out, he's looking to see if you've got your journal on you.]

Is your journal still in the bedroom?

[Action]

[trueknight]

[Pouring some coffee ...]

Hmm? ... Oh, that thing. Yeah, it's there.

[Action]

[crisisrain]

You're gonna need to get that, it's important.

[Action]

[trueknight]

[... Fine, coffee time can wait. He'll just finish pouring, nod, and go off to his room. He'll fix his coffee up later or something.

... And since his room is right next to the kitchen, he'll be back within a minute, with his journal.]

So, what's so important?

[Action]

[crisisrain]

[He points to the journal.]

That thing is. And if ya have enough patience you could go through and find yer ol-

Wait... Nevermind, here I go forgettin' how damn impatient you are.

[Action]

[trueknight]

[Yeaaaah, he was starting to frown in the middle of that last statement. Gosh Raven. Like he has the time to read anything. But whatever--]

Well, if it's really that important, I'll at least try to. [... Well, he'll skim around, anyway.]

[Action]

[crisisrain]

I'm sure ya'll figure it out for yerself, but that thing is basically your window into the rest of Luceti.

[He pauses.]

I have somethin' else that belongs to you too, but it might be a little bit wiser fer me ta give it back once you've settled in here.

[Action]

[trueknight]

[He was about to say that he remembered that much, but what Raven says next stops him.]

... Oh yeah? I take it it has something to do with my past here.

[He's pretty curious about it, but ...]

[Action]

[crisisrain]

We'll get to that hurdle when we get there, fer now ya just need to focus on the more simple things. I'll give it back to ya when you remember what it is.

[Can't get fairer than that kiddo.]

[Action]

[trueknight]

[shrug]

All right. Fair enough.

[Going back to fixing this coffee up, yes. ... Where the hell is the sugar.]

Guess I'll just have to hope I actually remember whatever it is you're talking about.

[Action]

[crisisrain]

[Raven is rarely serious, but the tone in his voice definitely implies that he's not joking around.]

If you remember Luceti and forget this, then I'll have to beat it into you.

[Action]

[trueknight]

[That definitely gets Yuri's attention. He glances back at Raven for a few moments before going back to what he was doing.]

... Then I'll have to make sure I remember it.

[If it's really something so important that Raven would sound so serious about it ... He has to remember.]

[Action]

[crisisrain]

[And just like that he's seriousness has vanished again. Even though he speaks as he's upset about having company, it's quite obvious from his expression that he was getting was really lonely here.]

But we can worry about that later! It's such a shame though, I was enjoyin' having this house all to myself. It was great being all by lonesome for a change!

[Action]

[trueknight]

[Dammit Raven pick a mood and stick with it. Yuri looks back at him again for a moment, then shrugs.]

Well, if you're really that desperate for some alone time, you could always go out and find a cave somewhere. I guess there might be a bear or two out there, but you'd be pretty alone, at least.

[Action]

[crisisrain]

[Never!]

Huh? A cave?! Put me out in one of those on my own and I'll die! Besides, ya can't go lettin' me die now can you? Brave Vesperia's laws and all that.

[Oh, wait.]

Ah! That reminds me! Yer little guild still exists here.

[Action]

[trueknight]

[Give him a moment ... Okay, now he's remembering things about BV being in Luceti. Boy, that confused him for a moment. That look of confusion he had on his face for a moment is quickly replaced with a light smirk.]

... Heh. They all kept it alive here, huh? [ ... ] I guess that means I'll have a lot of work to do again once I'm settled.

[Action]

[crisisrain]

[He just continues drinking his coffee. Another weird day in Luceti, why is he not surprised. Oh that's right, HE'S GETTING TOO OLD FOR THIS SHIT.]

Yeah, a guy called Zack Fair took it over for ya, seein' as I have no interest in bein' in charge of it. He's not a bad kid, I just dunno if he has the same ideals as you do, as in, the whole justice thing ya got goin' on.

[Action]

[trueknight]

Zack? [ ... ] ... Not sure. It doesn't really help that I can't remember too much about him right now, though.

[Action] Now with English.

[crisisrain]

Don't worry too much about that, he'll probably find you before ya find him! And if fer some reason he doesn't, I work at the Good Spirits Bar with him, I can always just drag you along.

[Action]

[trueknight]

You're working now?

[He's actually looking back at Raven, slightly concerned. My god how lonely were you?]

[Action]

[crisisrain]

What's that face for?! I'm a vigilant worker, I always have some sorta job goin' on!

[Action]

[trueknight]

I guess, but a job like that is kind of ...

[... Well, whatever. Maybe Raven secretly always wanted to be a bartender or something. Even if thinking about that is weird. "Come tell ol' Raven all your troub--" no he can't even imagine that so he's just. Stopping. Right there. It doesn't help that he has a pretty limited understanding of that sort of job as it is - ... and doesn't actually know what Raven does for work there.

So yes. He'll just be going back to his coffee. Yep.]

... Never mind.

[Action]

[crisisrain]

At least I'm doin' something with my free time instead of sittin' around in this dump waiting for things ta happen.

[And besides, he frequents the bar and he knows the staff, it makes perfect sense for him to pitch in some nights. At least that's how he sees it.]

[Action]

[trueknight]

... Guess I can't really argue with that. [Shrugging lightly.] I wouldn't take on a job like that myself, but that's just me.

[Action]

[crisisrain]

Maybe you should consider gettin' a job anyway. It helps pass the time and it means yer actually contributin' something instead of just leeching.
