Action - 006

[moezama]

[...Well, this was a little unexpected. Kazuma finds himself standing at the center of the village plaza later on this evening, pretty much having the same pose as the icon, although in new feather garbs. He looks at his surroundings. There was something vaguely familiar about the village, and this pain behind his back...like a dream he once had long ago. Slowly it comes back to him.

He chuckles quietly upon realizing where he was. This was a joke, right? Oh, but of course Luceti was always good at causing interruptions for everyone wasn't it? He sighs, no point in questioning it. He should just go and find his clothes.

As he walks to the clothing store, he realized how quiet it was. Not that the village was quiet in the least, it's his head. It was almost unsettling how quiet it was in his head right now. Terumi would surely have a say or two right now but...nothing.]


--------

[Kazuma can be found at the clothing store after his return wearing not his old clothes, but the uniform Hazama wore in the NOL. Odd. Yet Kazuma didn't find anything strange about it at all, like this was totally what he has always worn. What he found strange was that he couldn't find his journal. Didn't new feathers usually get them upon arrival?

He'll be checking the various stores, the item and weapon shops afterwards for his things before concluding his journal wasn't here. It couldn't still be at the old House was it? Ugh, he's not sure if he wanted a reunion, but the journal is kind of vital in this place. Maybe he can sneak into House 48 without anyone noticing. So he can be seen walking down the path towards House 48 from the plaza.

Once there, he'll be as quiet as possible getting in and getting out with his things...damn that front door sure makes an awful loud creaking sound and this house--this house stinks like cat. Ugh.]

[OOC: The Malnosso have messed around with Kazuma's head and a few other things, so this is who he believes to be right now. Though he doesn't share the headspace with Terumi in Luceti. This is lasting for a week.]

[Sometime after this, Noel finds it high time to head back to her empty home. Empty in the sense that no one but she and her dog were occupying it. She needed to... see how he was doing. Yes.

Noel trudges along home, a million and one things swarming in her head. How Ragna was doing. How he would feel if he found out that maybe someone or another convinced her to somehow drink. How guilty she was going to feel in a few hours, because maybe she had too much and---- blah, blah, blah. Shut up, brain.

It's a nice night. Gotta enjoy it while it lasts.]

[Firo's just leaving the house when he spots the friendly neighborhood Kazuma out and about. With a rather interesting guest, it looks like. One eyebrow raised quizzically, Firo strolls over.]

Oh, hey Kazuma. What're you up to? Who's that?

[rageface]

[Imagine Ragna's surprise when he's out and about the village for the first time in a couple of days (thanks to avoiding Noel), and he comes across this sight. The sight of Hazama. It's a lot of surprise that wants to fill every orifice of his being in hatred and anger, enough to stop him in his tracks. But now words come out.

He actually manages to stop himself from yelling out.

Because he knows that he would probably eat the dirt or even die again. Without the Azure, Ragna stands absolutely no chance in taking on this bastard. It's a lose-lose situation, yet he can't urge himself into moving so he can hide. He just stands there, dumbfounded at the sight.

He could have sworn that Terumi was gone.]

[The house not only stinks like cat, but it has cat as well. Tao's not sleeping on the floor nearby for once, instead getting a late night snack...or well, more like late night meal. Details. Oh, but a late night guest counts as a surprise too.]

...Green Guy and Lacking Lady?

[Oh hey. Envy happens to be near the center of the village plaza! And it's giving Kazuma a very curious look when it sees him. Hmmm. Now it's pretty sure that you're that same freaking brat that it ran into when it first got here. But for some reason you also look a bit different... somehow. It's not really sure.]

Hey. You're that green haired brat right? Kazami or something.

[With the Boundary interference growing steadily worse with each day, it's a small achievement making it into the kitchen. She's been asleep most of the day, but now she's on the way to make some tea, and...

...And there's Kazuma. Echoes bouncing off the Boundary are screaming that something is off, but she's trying to ignore them. Nothing is off. It's just the interference again.

Her voice is weak, but she still manages a small smile as she pads into the kitchen.]

Kazuma...?

[Good heavens, that nagging sensation won't go away.]
