Who: Open to anyone!
Where: Everywhere at first, but leading up to the Virgo District.
Summary: There's an odd feeling in the air, in the wake of the Scorpio incident...
Warnings: Secondary, small plot event
The city was in a sort of rebuilding lull after the Scorpio incident. People swept debris off their porches as Wand operatives did their best to calm the demon population- the post-battle issues would probably have lasted quite a long time, if not for an odd intervention.

The twenty-seventh of October was an oddly quiet night in Hinoto-Ri. The silence seemed to scrub the streets clean, even if only metaphorically. A soft, humid rain drizzled down over the city like a blanket, lulling those who were still awake and patrolling. Yet, there were not nearly as many demons as usual; something unheard of for the town, and too suspicious to leave be, especially in the wake of Skorpios.

At about eleven, the rain picked up, more of a downpour than anyone could have expected- and there was a sound. No, more than that- it was music.

At first, the tune was simply an irritation, but as the minutes ticked on, it wormed its way much deeper. Like a fading echo, it pushed through the rain from parts unknown, calling out with it's last, faint breath. Yet never did it cease. The song begged to whatever persona users would heed it, beckoning them softly to follow it...whatever 'it' was.

Anyone who heard the melody would find themselves lured to the same place- a small row of shops in the Virgo district. The rain was harsh, yet could barely whisper over the song's intensity by then...

[ OOC: The half of this log set on the 27th is just a mingle, to ponder over what could be happening- feel free to make ridiculous theories, or what have you! The half set on the 28th will go up tomorrow, and will kick off the event proper. ]

"Dammit, put it back on! You're distracting!"

"Oh come on! It's not like I'm naked!"

Hang on...

"Why are you so distracted, anyway?"

That sound just now? That would be the sound of mental keysmashing.

"N-not me! You're distracting everyone else here!"

Pit takes a goooooooooood look around them, then looks back at Rune.

"...the only one here who's distracted is you."

GIVE HIM THE DEETS.

...

...

...

Nope. Have a kick to the shins instead. "D-don't call me a liar!"

"Owww!"

Hop hop hop

"I'm not calling you a liar! I just wanna know why you get so flustered around me!"

"Anyone would be flustered around a guy walking around in something that could fall off any second!"

"...when's the last time you've seen a spandex singlet fall off of someone?!"

"I DON'T KNOW, BUT STRANGER THINGS HAVE HAPPENED IN THIS CITY!!!"

"Can you please stop yelling?"

Damn it's obvious this girl is a little more flustered than she ought to be. Is it because she...?

Or maybe she's just flustered by the memory of him asking her out on a date.

But if she wasn't interested then she wouldn't be so flustered...

But he still has a bad habit of falling for girls who like him to some degree but won't ever admit it.

Rune just let out a disgruntled noise instead, folding her arms over her chest and looking away. She was sixteen, dammit; she had more important things to worry about than chicken wings over there. Like, you know, if she'd ever get to see her friends again, or if they were going to be able to work together to help the world or what she was going to eat for dinner...

Once again, he holds out the shawl. "If you're that bugged by having me around, I'll just leave. Here, take this."

"Will you just hold onto it? Geeze..." she muttered, looking even more annoyed. "You can give it back when you get some clothes on later."

"I don't get you," he mutters, taking a seat on the ground.

"Well I don't get you, so we're even there," Rune muttered, leaning back against the wall.

"I'm not freaking out over some guy in pajamas!"

"...you wear those to bed?"

...oh that's even worse. Sorry, becoming a tomato right now.

"...not always. It's what I wear under my tunic."

...and she's out. She is so out. She cannot can anymore. Rune groaned, planting her face in her hands.

Pit sighs.

"Why are you humans so uptight about clothes?"

Rune pulled her face out of her hands long enough to glance down at him.

"Do you really have zero modesty?"

"I have plenty of modesty! But I don't go around yelling at people for stuff they can't help! Trust me, if I had a choice, I'd have put on something warmer before I walked out of my place. But I didn't."

"You could try to act a little more embarrassed then!"

Yep, totally missing that last part.

"...did you miss the part where I was too embarrassed to move because you caught me?"

"T-that doesn't count!"
