who: kayos and grayson
where: third street
when: mid afternoon

Kayos walked along the snowy streets, vaguely paying attention to her surroundings, but really it was only a passing aquaintance with 'attention'. It was about enough to make sure she wasn't randomly crashing into innocent bystanders. That never usually worked out well, and therefore she wanted to at least put a cursory effort into avoiding it.

Mostly, however, she was just listening to her music, walking along in a vaguely 'dancey' manner, and singing. She was trying a new track on getting herself out of sad-mode, which was to get out of her torn up building, get some fresh air, maybe try a random shop or something. She stopped to gaze into a shop's window, contemplating going in and buying something. Anything, really, and maybe making a gift out of it. "There's just no mercy in your eyes, There ain't no time to set things right, And I'm afraid I've lost the fight, I'm just a painful reminder....Another day you leave behind..."

So maybe her taste in music could be a little more upbeat in order to help out the sad-brain but whatever. She liked the song.

where: lower harbor park
when: midday

She'd worked a good lot of the night with Doc, fixing her building up, but there was still a ton to do. Tons. Whole scads. Like way more than she could possibly face at the moment, so she'd gone for a walk. Or, more specifically, she'd started to go for a walk, then got distracted by the playground in the park that her building overlooked. So what had started as a walk turned into playing in the snow. Sure, she could call it necessary stress relief, or slap some fancy psychobabble term on it, but she was a realist, and decided to call it exactly what it was.

Playing.

Cuz seriously, it was a wicked cool playground, if one was willing to climb over the snowbanks to get there. She was willing. There was a section of the playground above the snowline, the wooden structure all castle-like with a bridge and everything. She went and sat on the ledge of one such bridge, looking out over the blanket of snow that covered what looked to her like the whole world. The only place it wasn't was the lake, it's dark blue uneasy as it crashed up against the side of the harbor now and then.

He knew it wouldn't last, the way he felt okay with things right now. It never did, and that brought memories to the surface of Doc's mind. 'Impermanence is the way of all things, and in this, so is permanence' he'd been told once, decades earlier, by an old comrade who had fought with him and Kayos. In those days of warfare the words had held little meaning, they were the musings of a man whose ideologies only lined up with Doc's on one point; that they needed to fight. And in those days, that had been enough.

Who: Jamie and Kayos.
Where: Around Marquette.
When: Afternoon.

This was never a really good time of year for Jamie. He liked snow, he liked all the holiday spirit stuff... despite not having anyone to spend it with, which reminded him of who he could've spent it with, which reminded him of what he lost, which had happened so long ago, but was still fresh in his mind. In his bed, he'd stare up at the ceiling, having just a hard time as ever sleeping, trying to keep an even, steady breath as he gripped the covers tightly.

WHO: Kayos and Grayson.
WHERE: The safehouse.
WHEN: After midnight.

Who: Pandect and Kayos
Where: Hardware store
When: morning

Pandect was displeased. The new roof had held, which was excellent because he wasn't sure what he'd do if it hadn't. Something drastic probably. But he had spent half his morning pulling fuses and trying to sort through wires with a flashlight in his teeth. He had spent the other half trying to get the phone to stop ringing. He had discovered the front desk phone had a really annoying ringer when he was busy trying to stop electrical fires.

Kayos had set up hotel accommodations for herself and Nemo, and she'd actually gone all ritzy-like and chosen the Landmark Inn. Which was probably far better than Nemo was used to and the like, but whatever. She didn't feel like going elsewhere, and it was closest to the building she was already having Teddy push through paperwork so she could own the damn thing. And by push through paperwork, she meant figure out how she could come up with a deed or something so she could start the renovations.

who: kayos and nemo
where: diner
when: late day

It was a crisp November morning when Nemo wandered down the main street. This new town felt different, smelt different. He wasn't quite sure how he got there, but something seemed to draw him. Still, no matter, if it turned out that he didn't like it then he could just move on.

who: kayos and math
where: babylon
when: afternoon

After bugging out on Doc and Jocelyn, Kayos had been generally wandering around town, looking around, getting herself familiar with the area, which...being there wasn't a whole lot of area to be familiar with, and she'd been to the Marquette in her own reality, it was pretty easy going. She was looking for a warehouse, though, which was going to be harder to find. She either needed to find herself a good one, or start looking at some of the old buildings that were all abandoned-like and buy one of them and start renovating the shit out of it. Warehouses were just easier in general to renovate, because they were wide open spaces to begin with. Plus, people paid a lot less attention to them, but oh well. Either way, she needed something, because after the vibe she'd gotten from Jocelyn that shit was her territory, she was just going to be taking that not so subtle hint.
