[ Open ]
WHO: Kaneki + Open
WHERE: Heropa, Nonah, Maurtia falls, De chima
WHEN: March 1st to March 15th
WHAT: Find Kaneki on the street because he won't tell you he is here otherwise
WARNINGS: Canon spoilers, mentions of violence, gore and cannibalism
[ His arrival back in this world was smoother than he expected. The government told him he was not going to prison for what he did, but due to his violent acts --even if he wasn't in his right mind and was being "controlled" by Hornets-- he had to be put on probation. He was requested to wear an ankle monitoring bracelet for a month and he will have to report to a Registered imPort who will act as his parole officer; the tattoo in his arm now says "criminal" and will remain so for a month. And during all of this, not once Kaneki argued or complained. He nodded and accepted every decision the government made about this situation, and at the end all he did was ask if he still had access to De Chima labs --they said 'yes' because it was necessary-- and requested to now live in De Chima --request accepted-- and that was it.
That's how he returned to this world.
He left an entry over the network, and went to his new place. he is not sure how to address others just yet, but he knows he has to apologize, though you can't really apologize for something like that, not so lightly. He will focus on what he can while he decides the best course of action: the Hornets, the Porter, he will focus on keeping his place in this world, that has been threatened so many times already, and he will protect everyone. He will find what is the better way to do that, since experience told him he can't just do everything blindly. He needs to think.
He will figure it out. ]
HEROPA : Bookstore
[ Even though Kaneki is no longer living in Heropa, he still walks around the city quite often. It's a way to make sure everything and everyone are safe and in case something happens, he will be there to help and protect the people he cares about. He is now working at De Chima bookstore, but he decides to drop by his old workplace; here, only few days passed after he was sent back to his world, but back home it was over 6 months.
He smiles politely at his ex-boss as he comments on the white hair, and he smiles kindly at the man. He also apologizes for leaving and apologizes for no longer working there. With a small bow, he buys three new books and an extra fourth is given to him for free. When he finally leaves the bookstore, he looks around for a second and decides to take off his eyepatch; white hair and black clothes made him pretty weird already, but he figured it was better to avoid looking THAT weird with an eyepatch too. ]
NONAH : Coffee shop
[ He never actually been to Nonah before. It's funny because he was 6 months in this world before, and he never found an excuse to go to Nonah and visit the city. Right now he is only doing so because he wants to know the city, the layout, to see the people, the natives, the imPorts and their locations. He is scouting, that's the only reason he is there. Annie and Reiner live there, so it's important for him to know the place and in case something happens, he can navigate through it.
After a whole morning of walking around, he eventually comes to a coffee shop - a petite and quiet one - and asks for their "best coffee, no sugar, no cream, just coffee". And he eventually sits by the window, looking outside. Doing this sort of things... drinking coffee at a coffee shop, taking a moment to look around without searching for an enemy... it has been a while. ]
MAURTIA FALLS : Streets
[ This was the second city Kaneki was set on getting to know. Like Nonah, he has never been there, but like Nonah, he needs to get to know it in case anything happens. Scouting, learning the layout, learning what you may need to face. If anything happens and he needs to go to this small city again, he will know the place easily. He is also interested in the rumored underground scene going on; these are usually good for information, but given Kaneki is currently a "Criminal" and under Government's observation he knows he can't approach it just yet.
He is carrying his eyepatch today, plus the black clothing and the white hair help a lot for people in this town not to be so suspicious of him. The ankle monitor also brought enough attention, too, but Kaneki politely asks them to go away -with a smile and everything!- as he grabs his cup of coffee and sits down at a public bench to drink it.
This is a really interesting place, actually. Ghouls would probably find it "homy" ]
HEROPA/DE CHIMA : Moving from a city to another
[ Now that he lives in De Chima, he will have to move there. It means going to his old apartment in Heropa and get his things and move them to a different city. At least Kaneki doesn't have much house utensils and necessities, but he has a lot of books and carrying those can be a feat. At least he has super strength and he isn't going to hide that anymore; in his hands, he carries bags full of books, some clothes, some other accessories like coffee.
He can be found carrying his items from Heropa Individual Housing back to De Chima Individual Housing, since it's where he will live from then on. ]
CLOSED : Will Graham
[ Kaneki was assigned Will Graham as his parole officer; he is to report to him and the man already has files on what Kaneki is, thus he doesn't expect having to explain it to him. Hopefully. Though he has a feeling questions and conversations will be had. In any case, Kaneki decides to visit him the second he can.
At least he doesn't bring cupcakes this time.
Kaneki is wearing black, and if Will remembers a gentle black haired kid who smiled and looked too naive for this world, he will now meet a white haired Kaneki who still wears an eyepatch and looks far too tired (and sad). He is still smiling, though. Once he arrives to Will's shop, "Hook, line, & tinker", the first thing he notices is the dog, but after he looks around ] Excuse me...?

no subject
[ yeahhhhh. Most likely not. Because if things get ugly to the point of Kaneki actually consider torturing someone, would Hide want to be involved in that? Kaneki doesn't think so, Hide isn't like him after all. he doesn't have to get his hands dirty like Kaneki dies. ]
no subject
He should have expected as much. Why would Kaneki purposefully drag Hide into possible danger after going through the motions of attempting to protect Hide from danger? No, he wouldn't take anything into consideration at all.]
Good. Then I'll be waiting for your text too, bud. [Positively, of course, despite how he knows it's a text he'll never get.]
Heeeh... you know, there is one thing that sucks a bit about your 'month in criminal status', though.
no subject
Hm? What is it?
no subject
[Not that it's Kaneki's fault.]
no subject
Well, true. But I can celebrate it with you later.
no subject
We'll have to do something fun, then.
Something we'll both enjoy. [You need it more than I do.]
no subject
yeah. I think I have a good place we can visit.
no subject
Oh yeah?
Now ya got me all curious.
no subject
[ Kaneki finishes his coffee, placing the cup aside once he's done ]
no subject
[A wink of one of those eyes.]
So, was it good?
no subject
It's good enough, actually. I might return. [ his finger touches the cup ] You are getting good at tasting coffee, Hide.
no subject
Alright, maybe it wasn't working.]
If I just remember what the coffee was like at Antieku, and try to find something similar, it's easy.
no subject
Kaneki decides not to say more about it since he feels like it doesn't matter. ]</ small > this is good enough.
no subject
[A blink.]
You don't remember it?
Like...
At all?
[NOW he looks concerned.]
no subject
Are things calmer here? Ever since the Hornets attack, I mean.
no subject
imPorts themselves make a lot of noise with their powers and general existence, but. By the looks of things, there's been a lot of people upset about the attacks and the infoleaks, but other than that...
Things seem to be grinding back down to... a relative norm. [How long that'll last is anyone's idea.]
no subject
You need a break as well. [ after being nearly killed by ken, he means. ]
no subject
[His fingers twitch at his side, and they maybe settle against his side, without really thinking about it.]
All fun and no games is a real dry way to live, yanno?
no subject
He smiles softly at the suggestion, but won't address it. Because he can't. There is so much he has to do. Even if laying low, he still has things to do.
He can't stop.
And maybe he has become dry. It's fine. ]
Hm. [ a small acknowledgment of something that will never happen ] You were enjoying the place, weren't you? [ before all that happened.
One thing Kaneki is sorry, is that he broke it for Hide. He did warn him the place could be dangerous, but he showed that to him the worst way possible ]
no subject
[His fingers clench a little over the cloth of his coat, and he quickly lets go when he realises he's doing it.]
'Were'? Past tense?
Come on, bud, I still am enjoying it. Despite the bad things that have happened.
no subject
Kaneki really has to wonder how can Hide keep so upbeat about everything. it's refreshing and actually, that's something sort of always fascinated Kaneki.
Kaneki blinks, but his smile grows wider ]
That's good to know. You love your powers, after all. You should keep enjoying them.
no subject
It'd take a whole lot more than almost getting killed to make him hate a place like this; somewhere he could actually be with his best friend and even others without the worries of home; of Kaneki dying for good, of actually losing him (again--)
No, he still liked this place.]
Sure, I love my powers for sure. But you know, that's not the only reason why I like being here. [Idiot.]
no subject
I don't know unless you tell me. My power is to have tentacles coming out of my back, not read minds.
[ he is joking. It's a bad joke.
but he nods ]
Back home, too. I won't be missing for very much longer. [ he had every intention of reaching for Hide ]
no subject
[You get a terrible joke back, bud.]
You wouldn't be missing much longer, huh? You're telling me that you were gonna go look for me back home, then? [A tilt of his head, a curious look.]
See, the best thing about this place. It's not having to wait around to see if you'll show up.
I can just call you, instead of not knowin', yanno?
no subject
[ Kaneki smiles softly at those words, even though he actually feels guilty. He hid from Hide for so long, he avoided him, he didn't tell him anything, for over six months. he left his friend like that. It was all to protect him, it's true, but Kaneki surely didn't go about it the right way.
He wants to tell him he did it all for him, but it's unfair to say that because it'll feel like Hide is the reason why kaneki left, and that's not it at all ]
Even if I left, I didn't stop caring about you, Hide. [ of course not. Hide, people at Anteiku, Banjou-san and his group, Hinami-chan... that's all Kaneki could think of ]
