003 It's not raining men [Open]
Who; Jacob Miller & You~! Also some closed things.
What; Handling the Crystals.
Where; Around the City.
When; Any time during the event.
Warnings; Just what might come up in possible memories.
Open to All | City Streets | Street Cleaner
He wore a wool jacket with his usual work pants and loose white shirt as he slowly made his way through the streets. In Jacob's left hand was a broom, his right hand a bag. He tried not to touch the crystals but when he saw one drop to the ground he quickly swept it into the bag. There were enough memories from his life that he didn't want to share and he imagined that others felt the same. It was impossible for him to cover the entire city but any reprieve to those he has come to care about was worth it.
Of course, he had to figure out what to do with the crystals but he'd have time to sort that out. Perhaps he could drop them into the water and let them be hidden by the sea. If they were really likely they'd disappear but Jake had never considered himself lucky. If anything he was unlucky.
He could be found anywhere around the city with his broom and bag. The bag varied in size throughout the day, growing with each hour but it wasn't enough. There were crystals out there and he couldn't do anything about it.
At least he had the broom, should he meet anyone who had bad intentions towards him.
Jake really had the worst luck.
Closed to Yuki | Blue Building B-06 | Finding Memories
He wasn't sure what to think. It was a strange memory but the strangest part was how it made him feel. It wasn't bad… not exactly but it made him realize how much he didn't know Yuki and at the same time, it made him realize how little he shared with Yuki. He understood from a logical perspective but it made him feel uneasy. Things couldn't always be happy and it was these memories that were the most important; it was these memories that should be shared.
Jacob didn't know if Yuki had found any of his memories. He was sure that there were some out there but it was something that the pair should talk about. If this relationship was going to be more than skin deep…
He was scared but knew that it was important that they talk.
Jake stopped outside of Yuki's door, knowing that the young man would be home. It was dinner time but he didn't feel like he could eat. He hoped he wasn't interrupting.

"THere's people trying to profit off of them," Nida said. "So yeah, this is better."
no subject
"Please tell me you kicked their ass?" Some people didn't learn without a swift kick to the lower jaw.
no subject
no subject
"I guess that's fine." He had aged in his year away from the city but there were moments like these when he continued to act like a child. A 28-year-old child. "What's the punishment for that kind of thing?" He didn't realize it before now but he had no idea what the laws in this city were.
no subject
no subject
"Like extorsion- would be less major than murder or robbery?" He remembered the robbers from the last time he'd been in the city and didn't remember seeing them since. Were they still around? Was there a jail in the city?
no subject
"Well, most of the obvious laws are pretty obvious. But you can always check in with the guard. Just be a good person and you won't have issues. I have, though, thrown people in holding for thefts."
no subject
Though it didn't really make sense to be democracy since there isn't any voting in this world.
"I'm not breaking rules." He stated, suddenly defensive.
no subject
His job, though, was to keep the peace and keep people safe.
"You're not. Why are you acting so nervous then?"
no subject
"Where I came from that is. It was very controlling."
no subject
Controllign. Nida snorted at that. This was a common enough thing.
"Yes, control is what most governments want."
no subject
He really wasn't trying to sound guilty but Jacob felt guilty and it reflected in his tone.
"Good thing you're looking out for the city. I'd be terrible at that job." Jacob didn't think he'd be able to hold back when something struck a nerve.
no subject
And Nida had put himself on the line for that. And served as the master of the dojo.
no subject
"Do you remember all those worlds? Like, is there a time when things fade?" Jacob didn't trust his own memories but he figured that most people had fairly clear ideas about their pasts.
no subject
He was a traveler now, torn free from his world, and he didn't know how to get himself back. Then again, he had no intention of going back.
"My history with them is complicated. I remember everything about them, except the people. I can't remember their faces, or their names. I was almost engaged in one of them, and all I can refer to him as is my star eyed boy, Seb, because I remember stars had something to do with his magic. And he told me a story of great adventures in space, where space monks fought for great peace using sabers made of burning light."
Star Wars. His boyfriend had told him bed time stores of Star Wars.
no subject
"Like lightsabers?"
He was slowly connecting the dots.
no subject
Lightsabers? Yes! Nida smiles.
"Yes, like that. He said color said if someone was good or bad."
no subject
"That's cool. I didn't think anywhere here knew about those movies."
no subject
He looked excited that someone knows them. "There are three more!?"
no subject
"Yeah. They made 1 through 3. I didn't see them though." He thought about it and then shook his head. "There might have been more. I was too busy to really pay attention to it."
no subject
"I could tell you about their stories."
Maybe he should tell them to Mono. Pass them down."
no subject
He loved a good stake.
"Maybe after all this crap calms down." Like date night.
no subject
But yes, maybe after.
"I'd welcome it, and would run it by him if you're really interested."
no subject
"Either way, grilling." He pointed at Nida.
Food was really the thing that spoke to Jacob the most. He wasn't a good cook but he was a fantastic eater.
Move to a wrap?
Yes! /wrap
