Breaking into song three times all ready was beginning to grate on Ruri's nerves, luckily she was smart enough to not flip on her communicator for it but that added with being alone in a strange place on the Holiday had her feeling a bit blue. Sitting in the Aires district in one of the snow zones, looking across the street at the people in a hot zone Ruri blankly stared out into the world. Occasionally a semi translucent blue haired woman would appear and sit next to her but at these moments she just sighed and looked down.

Ruri sat there moving rather little, only occasionally fixing her scarf for a while before the blue figure spoke.

"Ruri-chan, maybe this isn't healthy... BOSON JUMP!"

With that there is a flash and the two vanish with the clap of air rushing in to fill a vacuum.

Moments later on Howell St. in the Taurus district outside the Blue Oyster Bar the usual playing of Bimbo Jet's "El Bimbo" is disrupted and a large commotion can be heard in the bar. Minutes later Ruri walks out with an irritated look.

"Baka baka..."

Comments

[acapriciousthing]

"Two, so far. A boy I met here and my..."

She trails off. Nouns are a problem.

[electricyousei]

Ruri tilts her head a bit and peers at her.

"Your?"

[acapriciousthing]

"Well, uh..." So much for composure. "There isn't really a word for 'skeleton I was fake married to and then after a year or so wound up actually getting romantically involved with.'"

For some reason.

[electricyousei]

"Oh. Adult things. I don't really know much about those."

Death: Not the Warden

[acapriciousthing]

"This particular one's bee new territory for us." Which was probably why this noun situation was far more complicated than it really should be.

[electricyousei]

"...Adult life seems incredibly complicated, you have my sympathy."

[acapriciousthing]

"It's a nice sort of complicated though. It's kinda fun to realize there are still surprises." She hadn't really expected it, at her age.

[electricyousei]

"I guess. I never was a fan of surprises."

[acapriciousthing]

"They're a bit of a rare treat after so long. Kinda fun." Okay, she had a bit of an odd perspective.

[electricyousei]

"Really? I found routine rarer where I come from."

[acapriciousthing]

"It's amazing what you get used to in a few billion years." Being alive tended more toward surprises, but still.

[electricyousei]

"Its highly unlikely I'll make it to 100 so once again I will defer to your experience."

Tagging as the Warden? On MY Friday night? It's more likely than you think.

[acapriciousthing]

"Not being mortal does tend to be a different perspective." It was easy to lose touch, really.

[electricyousei]

"Well, hopefully you have ways to keep grounded."

[acapriciousthing]

She smiles. "I do. I don't let myself forget, it only ends badly."

[electricyousei]

"......You don't know War by any chance do you?"

[acapriciousthing]

"No. Death knows a War, but I don't." THey spent a lot of time swapping stories. "One of my brothers is Destruction, if that counts."

[electricyousei]

"I'm not sure. Would a kitten make him more balanced? It was an odd thought, I apologize, but the grounding made me wonder if a kitten would help ground someone like that."

[acapriciousthing]

She laughs. Eerily accurate. "Destruction had a dog, actually. Until he gave him to Delirium. Death and I had a kitten in Mayfield."

[electricyousei]

"I bet that dog did a number to any lawn in its way."

[acapriciousthing]

"Lawns... poetry. He's quite the character."

[electricyousei]

Ruri nods a little bit.

"Well, if you meet a War, let me know, if there is anything that there are more of than people who want its kittens."

[acapriciousthing]

"I'll be sure to keep that in mind."
