( She decided to wander in the dark, just another figure in the Fog... )

Who: Mariko Ishiwatari, Gale Reinhardt
What: Droid Warfare Bounty
When: July 3rd
Where: Nova City

[ Taking up the bounty for herself, Mariko wanted to use this to field test something she wasted some money on - which was a protective body armor suit, made of durable fibers that protects from cuts and stabs. Now living with Gale and his girl Friday, Mariko got caught trying to leave the house wearing this black spysuit-looking thing that's the opposite of airy and loose that she usually wears. So after a humorous argument, Mariko got chaperoned by Gale to her first date with some bank-robber and his droids. In an outfit she's really regretting to wear due to the sweltering heat all over Nova City.

After a bit of crude profiling and making use of her basic criminology knowledge, Mariko and Gale managed to pick one likely bank to observe. Surveying the bank that's yet to be touched by the perpetrator, Mariko hides from plain sight by being on a rooftop that she can see the bank's main entrance from. Armed with her rifle, Mariko was in position and is just waiting for the perps to show. If they would. ]

It's really important to me that Konoka never finds out about this.

[ Mariko speaks to Gale through their wireless comms, referring to her catsuit that she's sure the other girl would never let her live down ]

Who: Koishi and YOU
What: It's too hoooooot!
Where: Genessia City
When: Around the start of the heat wave
Warnings: None really.

Well... Damn. As a youkai of the mountain, Koishi was built to handle some rather tough conditions. Anything ranging from flash storms to fires, to icy water, to high winds. But there was one thing the mountains of central Japan did not have. Heat. It was too bloody hot.

Well, she did live in hell. But that was old hell. The reactors were never turned up to full. It was usually snowy or pleasantly cool or, at the very least, the heat was radial and dry. And while this heat was dry too (for the most part) it was constant and unrelenting to the point where even the air she was breathing was hot and unpleasant. Sure, she could just go home... but why waste a clear day to be out and about?

Even if it was way too bloody hot. And the fact that everyone around her seemed miserable about it certainly didn't help the situation either. Damn subconscious powers!

And so, her usual wandering and exploring quickly turned into a quest to keep cool. To the point where she had even shed her yellow shirt and was just wearing the black tank top she normally wore under it. Even if that did technically expose the inhuman coloration of her upper arms for the world to see.

Well, in any case, she would be wandering around Genessia city looking for anywhere she could cool off. No doubt this might lead her into some strange or awkward places, but that didn't matter. She just wanted to be less warm.

(Feel free to pick a location to encounter her. Literally anywhere is fine.)

Action; The Bay
[Rapunzel didn't remember falling asleep right after she finally left the tower and started on her adventure to see what she always dreamed of seeing up close. The lanterns have been her dream for as long as she could remember.

So when she found herself waking up in something she doesn't remember waking up in she couldn't help but worry ever so slightly. Where was her guide? The one who was meant to show her to the place she was meant to go to. As her bare feet hit the water she paused, looking down slightly. Water. Not exactly something she was expecting when getting out.

With frying pan firmly in her grasp and the items that she woke up with, in her other hand, she slowly made her way out, scared about what to expect in the world. her 150ft of hail slowly but surely trailing behind her. With each step, she moved the frying pan to the left, then to the right quickly when she saw people around.]

Action; Genessia
[Once Rapunzel had heard the hologram, which had scared her when it initially turned on she had made her way around, seemingly a little more excited to see everything around her. Running from window to window looking in, she was excited about simply being out of the tower. However, it wasn't long before she finds herself stopping. She was in a new place and if she didn't get back in three days, her mother would not be happy. That was enough to cause the young blonde to lean against the window.]

She is going to be upset with me? Why did I do it? Maybe I could go back?

[For the rest of the morning at least, the young woman can either be found running around happily trying out new things or she can be found sitting around, mumbling to herself.]

Video
[Whoever was using the device clearly had no idea how to actually use it. So when it switches on all one can see is a giant green eye looking into it. They moved it back for a moment in order to check it out before moving it back to the way it was before.]

I admit I have never seen anything quite like this. But... what actually is it?

Y'know, at least it's all toasty here now, I got a raw deal the last time I came here when it was all crummy and wintery.

[oh.

OH GOOD.

IT'S THIS VOICE AGAIN.]

I mean it ain't no Bimini or nuthin' but hey, it ain't no Greenland either, I'll take it.

So's like whats happened here since I ain't been around an' stuff? Anyone die? Aliens? We catch sasquatch yet?

Does this place even do anythin'?

... We get any prettier ladies 'round here since I left?

[While most everyone seems to be suffering from the heatwave, Dorian seems less than annoyed by it all when the feed initializes. Now, he's not wearing his robes, and his dark shoulders prove he's wearing an outfit without sleeves, but he seems perfectly comfortable, more so than usual, one could say.

He looks rather pleased with himself, also, and while most of his surroundings aren't in view, it's plain the device is nestled on a desk surrounded by very untidy notes in a flowing hand and that said desk is surrounded by bookshelves that are equally in a state of disarray. No one every accused Dorian of being an orderly worker.]

Hello, Genessia! You know, all this talk of a heatwave, and all the lamentation thereof, have gotten me thinking about weather. I know, I know. It's the topic of bores and the unenlightened, something to fill the void at an awkward social gathering, what have you. But, the reason I bring it up is simple: this weather is much more similar to my homeland, which, coincidentally, is in the north of the land from which I hail.

[He folds his hands in front of him on the desk, leaning forward slightly in interest.]

What I would like to know is this: is warmer weather where you come from associated with the north...or the south? Call it a research project.
