WHO: HOUSE 001, NONAH, NC HOUSEMATES
WHERE: ... House 001, Nonah, NC
WHEN: August 18th - August 31st.
WHAT: What happens when three titan shifters, a demi-goddess, a clone, and an alien live together? Let's learn.
WARNINGS: None yet, will update as necessary.

Most days were probably normal, in that the sun rose from an Easternly direction, it tended to cross over the sky regardless of precipitation or cloud coverage with a remarkable degree of steadiness, and each later afternoon, spanning into the evening, it found a way to sink beyond the Western horizon, chasing down a further shore. Nonah, being Nonah, bustled with business and people, trains sounding as they ran through downtown, as ever perpetually in motion. Even the fear of months earlier with the monorail crash has faded from the forefront of memory, outside of extra signs and warnings, and officers who chase away those who loiter near supports of all sorts of road and travel structures.

In Government Townhouse 001, the days run like they always do: absolutely senseless, in the way that five (no, six) completely unique individuals getting along in their attempt at normalcy in handling school, work, and the various details of living together.

Go forth, housemates. What's your adventure today?

Why would I be okay with that?!

[The reply comes out sharp. It's not because of her words or her suggestions, it's a combination of factors that has him completely on edge. Kaine doesn't want people to get hurt, but is it supposed to be their job? And what is he supposed to say to that? He can't think of anything good to say to that.

His lips twist downward into a grimace.]

It just doesn't mean we have to ask for his help. This isn't his mess.

[huitzilin]

It's no one's mess.

[ she wilts a little bit, putting her hands on her crossed heels. ]

That person just wants to hurt people, like it's just simple. But it's not simple.

[ Robbie had done some terrible things, himself. there were some similarities between him and Kaine and her attraction to Robbie—but she wasn't exactly adept in that area enough to be aware of it. ]

If he was in a mess we'd help too.

[ but with that, she sounds like she'll let the subject drop. ]

I'll keep looking.

[darkspider]

I wouldn't help him. [That, too, is snappish, and it's obvious that Kaine is tense right now. He's tense about this situation, and he's tense about someone involving himself. He's tense about whether or not this is an inevitable thing. Did knowing these kids put them in trouble? And if that asshole figured out he was there, would he already be trying to create a whole slew of blood splatters? He's not mad at the titans at all. He's just pissed off at this situation, and the fact that they had to be pushed.]

We should ask them if there are any other threats. [Their neighbors. It's obvious who he means because the anger and frustration has left his voice, at least somewhat.]

[huitzilin]

[ she just frowns a little bit and doesn't really respond.

they were a team, she knew that they were a team, and even though Kaine was insisting against it, she knew that he was part of that team. there were contrary drawbacks, but there always were with Kaine. he wanted company, but he still wanted independence from that company. she tried to always make do with what she had. ]

Okay. We can ask them too, maybe we can all keep an eye out. We don't know who he is, right? I thought maybe I could hear him think about it...

[darkspider]

[It's not that he doesn't catch the frown, but how the fuck does he say "I don't do teams and I won't do teams" enough times to make it stick? He's tired of it. Kaine isn't on a team, as far as he's concerned.]

There might be someone who knows. Did you spot anyone who seemed like they knew him? [He's insinuating that she's put more effort into this than he has. The whole concept of reading and listening in on other people's conversations over the internet is still largely lost on him. If he's engaging, he's engaging for a reason.]
