action

[teardropshaman]

[Today was a good day for a random act of kindness, Cecilia style. Earlier in the day she had found some thermoses in the item shop, as well as a table. After seeing that the thermos could keep warm drinks warm and cold drinks cold with the help of ice, she had an idea.

So, after dragging out the small table to the plaza, she had a small lemonade stand in front of the fountain, paper cups included. Cecilia will be offering cups to anyone that wants one today!]

There's no special occasion. I'm doing it for fun, really. Something nice for everyone. Anyway, did you want some?

[curiositykills]

How could I say no? [It didn't really matter what she'd made—anything that someone put this much effort into was totally worth trying.] Just in time, too. I wonder how long this weather'll last?

[teardropshaman]

I'm not sure. It's a nice break from the cold though, and I can appreciate that. [And a cup is handed over. There's extra lemons and sugar if it's not to taste!]

Hopefully it won't stay cold much longer. I can't really go out and stay out in the forest or anywhere else like this. [Or anywhere, really. It was harder to figure out what she might need supply-wise without harming herself. On the upside, she would probably stick close to town just in case!]

[curiositykills]

Thanks. [He accepts the cup with a smile. It's a little bitter, but he doesn't seem to have any problems with it.] You'd rather live out in the forest?

[teardropshaman]

I get cabin fever if I'm not moving around constantly, actually. It comes with being a Drifter in my home world. [Something that she has no problems with doing otherwise, but the cold is a problem.]

[curiositykills]

Oh. I get it. It must be weird here with so few places to go. Have you been here long?

[teardropshaman]

[There's a laugh and nod to that.]

A little weird, but it's nice to have a place to go back to, so to speak. I've been here... mm, a little over six months I think. What about you?

[curiositykills]

Wow, six whole months? [There's a pause as he thinks it over for a second, and then:] I think it's been about four for me. It sure doesn't feel like it, though.

[teardropshaman]

Has it felt longer for you? Or maybe only a short time?

[curiositykills]

Shorter, for sure. Way shorter. I guess it's kinda easy to lose track of time here.

[teardropshaman]

A little, yes. Maybe between seasons that is. Oh, and the Shifts too. So far I haven't seen anything too terrible, at least to me.

[curiositykills]

Yeah, me, either. [That's not entirely true. He'd seen some awful things here. But even if it was pointless, he still made an effort to keep his experiences and Robin's experiences separate.] Maybe that's why it feels like it goes by so fast. But I guess as long as I don't gotta stand around thinking I'm a bird or something for too long, it's not really a bad thing.

[teardropshaman]

A bird? Why would you think you're a bird?

[For her, that would imply something else, so she's pretty curious on if his meaning is the same as hers.]
