marty time [OPEN]
WHO: Martin, assorted
WHERE: Maurtia Falls
WHEN: April
WHAT: various encounters and hijinks
WARNINGS: tag in subject lines if needed
o1. lunchtime, park by the canal (OPEN)
The weather has gotten rather overcast and gloomy lately -- pleasant enough that being outside in the day is enjoyable! That isn't Martin being an edgy teen, that's just Martin being a sleepy nocturnal. Sporting the nice (and slightly over-sized -- he'll grow into it) leather jacket Poe got him, he sits outside in one of the park areas by the canal around lunchtime, waiting for his hardworking, law-enforcing parents to appear on the chance they can spare a break for some food. It's not always a guarantee, but it's frequent enough for Martin to feel compelled to at least try -- and in any case, he can just sit and fiddle with his latest knitting project mostly unbothered.
It's kind of a weird look: sunglasses, leather jacket...knitting needles. Sometimes that's all one needs to be curious enough to approach, and that's fine!
Other times, it's very angry robins or squirrels starting to harass him. Darkov blood: The bane of all creatures.
o2. evening, a downtown diner -- during shift & before or after commute (OPEN)
Martin...has a job now! Washing dishes and busing tables at the diner he often picked up carry-out for the house. Someplace familiar, something familiar, around workers he's growing more familiar with. That is just enough to offset the anxiety of being relied on to do anything of import outside the house!
So those who come in can get their tables wiped down by this gangly, awkward teen -- and any possibly broken dishes are ones he can come out and clean up, no issue! Mostly.
Besides that, he's kind of unnerving to catch on the way to or from an overnight shift; his eyes glint the way cats and dogs do at night, and he tends to make cuts through darker parts of down than make a bee line straight through the well-lit streets.
It's a fine way to walk into some shenanigans...or become subject to them, unwittingly.
o3. misc (OPEN)
If you have an open idea in Maurtia Falls, slap it down and I'll dunk a gremlin in
