[Well, that all sure happened. But at least you have the waystations! Whether you want to stock up on supplies, work, trade, or visit the very fancy Virtual Reality Dome, it's bound to be a nice break from the attacks of the 5th.

Make your own prompts, set up your own Virtual Realities, etc! For reference, the OOC post with info is over here!]

[Manolo takes a few moments to notice her, because well, he does get really into his music. When he does eventually realise he has an audience, he pauses, offering her an ambassadress smile.]

Oh. Hello, Tay.

[whereivebeen]

[ She waves a little, and moves closer. ]

Hey. You don't gotta stop 'cause of me, you know.

[puro]

[Manolo chuckles softly, strumming the strings a little.]

I didn't know you liked music so much.

[whereivebeen]

Eh.

[ she shrugs one shoulder and flops down on the ground next to him ]

I mean, it's cool I guess. I was in the church choir when I was a kid, I like listening to the radio. Mostly I just wanted to make sure you were ok.

[puro]

[Still a strumming. ]

I'm fine. Just feeling a little homesick, is all.

[whereivebeen]

Cool.

[ Okay, okay this is when she should ask him about it, right? That's what people do? Normally she wouldn't give a shit, but she thinks he's a good guy and they're stuck with each other for the foreseeable future, so she wants to put forth an effort.

Even if she's not sure how. ]

So, uh... who's Maria?

[puro]

[Tay, you fool. It's bad enough when regular people do this, Tay's attached to his emotions, so she better be ready for the ridiculous dose of HAPPY coming her way. He even stops playing.]

She is the love of my life. She's the best part of this or any other world. I'd do anything to get back to her.

[No, Manolo, that's what got you in that mess in the first place. ]

[whereivebeen]

[ OH DEAR GOD THAT IS SICKENING. ]

Jeeze, you like her so much why don't you fuckin marry her?

[ ...Tay. TAY. ]

[puro]

[His smile fades. ]

I asked her to, right before everything... fell apart.

[whereivebeen]

[ Tay grimaces, and picks at the grass under her hands. ]

Sorry. Um. I just sorta say shit sometimes.

...Did she say yes, at least?

[puro]

Yes.

[He gives a soft shrug. ]

But apparently she's marrying my best friend, to protect our town, to make him stay to defend it. I don't know if I'll get back in time. And even if I do, if they get attacked by Chackal...

[He needs to be home, with every fibre of his being.]

[whereivebeen]

[ Fuck. Fuuuuuuck. How do you do reassurance when you can't say "don't worry, we'll shoot that asshole in the face"?

WHY IS EVERYTHING SO DIFFICULT????

WHY DOES SHE CARE????? ]

Hey, y'know, it'll work out. Guys like you, you're like... romantic and shit. Gotta save the day and get the girl, right?

[ ...well, she tried. ]

[puro]

[Because he cares. She's caught it like a nasty rash. He does that, he's not sorry. ]

I really hope so. I'm going to try, anyway.

[whereivebeen]

[ fuck you and your caring std thing, Maraca. fuck you. ]

So, you, uh. Write that song or something?

[ Yes, good. Change the subject! ]

[puro]

[CAN'T TAKE IT BACK. ]

I...don't know. Sometimes, songs just come right into my head.
