[ Open ]

WHO: Kaneki + YOU
WHERE: Any imPort cities
WHEN: During August
WHAT: Day in the life of Kaneki Ken
WARNINGS: Cannibalism

[ Cemetery ; Night ]
[ Kaneki is registered and as such, he has access to dead bodies the government provides, all legal and all donated to science (which imports fall under, so it's alright). He goes to the laboratories in De Chima once a month to get his meal, but in fact, he is not a fan of this method. He downright hates it. His paranoia tells him that they take the chance to study him and keep an eye on him, as well on the amount of flesh he eats (which is the reason why Kaneki makes sure to always take one body a month. Nothing more, nothing less) and in a way try to control him like that.

But one body a month is not nearly enough for him. He shares his house and food with two other ghouls, Hinami and Touka, and makes sure there is food for all three of them. Kaneki is also a glutton; ever since he started consuming ghouls in order to gain power, he became a glutton just like Rize used to be. And in this world, he doesn't have other ghouls to consume, but he is still a glutton and thus he eats A LOT. And besides, it also gives him power, a power he is thirsty for. So that's why he gathers food from other places that aren't controlled by the government. Touka helps, sure, but she probably doesn't dream on just how much Kaneki actually eats.

He raids hospitals and morgues, mortuaries and cemeteries, in search for bodies to steal and consume. He never sticks to the same town and certainly goes to cities where imPorts don't reside so there won't be attention towards this matter; or if there is, they won't downright scream "imPort" if they start investigating. And this is what he is doing tonight: raiding a cemetery. About six hours earlier, during the afternoon, there was a funeral and Kaneki made sure to drop by to see where the grave would be; once that's located, he decides to come back later, during the night, to dig out the corpse.

It's not pretty, but this sort of thing is a lot safer than raiding hospitals. Missing bodies from hospitals are, after all, a lot easier to spot, while in cemetery, he just has to put everything back in place before down. It's easy when you have 8 tentacles on your back to help you. wearing his mask and usual black clothes, Kaneki easily digs out the corpse, which he will put inside a black body bag and set aside for a moment as he closes the coffin and puts the dirt back in place with the help of his kagune.

Though he may look distracted, he WILL hear if anyone approaches. ]



[ Library ]
[ Ever since Hinami-chan arrived, kaneki has decided he'd continue to home teach her the best he could. Which means books are necessary, though sometimes he isn't all that sure what exactly should he be teaching her. Literature is easy to him, but she should learn math too, science, history... and now as a hero, maybe she should train a bit considering everything that happens in this place - not as a ghoul, but maybe running or swimming?

regardless, he is still trying to figure out what is best, and Kaneki decides a trip to the library might help. See what school books are there for Hinami's age, and maybe try to teach her those. In the end, he finds many, yes, but also confusing; after all, the way Hinami-chan was learning, was different from this world's curriculum. He'd have to figure out, but of course that means grabbing a whole bunch of school years for children between 11 and 16, and carrying them around as he tries to find a decent dictionary. Maybe an English-Japanese dictionary as well..? Sure, the communicator can be accessed mentally to translate everything Hinami needs, but... ]
... feels more realistic I suppose...

[ he mutters those words and decides to archive the question for when he is checking out the books.

However, before he does, he passes by the international section, checking what authors from his country he might find. Or from other countries, too. Kaneki even places the school books on the floor, to pass his hand through the bindings of the books on the shelves, smiling softly as he sees titles he recognizes. he hasn't read in such a long time... he hasn't enjoyed reading in such a long time too. He feels like he lost his touch with the books, that he is no longer able to picture everything clearly as he reads them and thus he can't truly enjoy them.

Kaneki misses it so.


If you miss him at the library, though, you might find him on the streets bumping against you. With the many school books on his hands - easy to carry for a ghoul, sure, but still many that take his attention - Kaneki eventually bumps into someone, and some of the books fall on the floor]
Ah- I'm sorry.



[ Shopping ]
[ Kaneki is certainly not a fan of shopping, but he has to sometimes. Sure, he saves a lot of money on food, but there are still necessary basic things he needs such as toilet paper, laundry detergent and TONS OF COFFEE. In fact, that's the only thing he seems to get, as the other things and buried underneath the huge about of coffee, all different brands and types, and most of them still in beans and not instant. If anyone gives him a weird look or not, he doesn't seem to care, and the people that work on the local super market are already familiar with Kaneki's... obsession with caffeine.

If he isn't filling up his shopping cart with coffee, you might find him over the girl's section, grabbing a perfume, if only super confused to what sort of perfume he should pick. he is sniffing various kinds and none seem to please him, making a face whenever a perfume is too strong for his tates. If anyone is nearby, they'll notice cute hairclips with cupcakes on them, clearly meant for a little girl, and he also has a cute handbag. Whoever this is for, they are clearly spoiled by Kaneki he is a nice big brother ok ok ]
