WARNINGS:



After getting that murder weapon from Retrospec, Naegi thought he wouldn't get anything as bad as that. He means, that's the worst of the worst, right? Nothing can really top that. But this? This... this is definitely bad. Not murder weapon bad but still pretty awful.
It's a giant red-crown crane. It's a giant red-crown crane and it's stuck in the mailbox. It's stuck in the mailbox and Naegi, being the good kid that he is, is left with the terrible duty of getting a wild animal out of it. He honestly doesn't even know where to start and when he tries to move closer to try and help, he just gets pecked twice on the forehead instead.
Pecked really hard.
He stumbles back and just holds his forehead in his hands while the bird still trashes in the mailbox.
He's... he's already done.

Well, after a minute of dealing with the searing pain of an angry bird pecking you despite you wanting to help, Naegi still tries to figure out a way to get this poor crane out of the mailbox. He takes a deep breath and gets right in there, willing to withstand the Pecks of the North Star to try and shimmy the bird out. However, it would be a lot easier if the bird didn't act like he was trying to take it out so he could eat it or something and trash around like a headless chicken.
"H-Hey, i-it's all right! I'm just trying to help you!"
He says as if the crane can understand and can suddenly realize that this human is, in fact, helping and not trying to kill it. It's going to be a long and difficult fight, resulting in someone losing an eye if this keeps up.
Please help.

Probably an hour after Naegi gets the bird free, he now doesn't really know what to do with it. There's no way he can take it home because he's pretty sure you can't keep cranes as pets (and he doesn't really want to) but the thing is...
It won't stop following him now.
For a bird that put up such a fight when it was in the mailbox, it now seems to have no problems with Naegi. The thought process is probably like this: "yes, this is a good human. This human saved its life. Gotta follow this human to be safe. Maybe it will be fed. Good human." Something like that. Anyway, Naegi is exasperated by this turn of events and he keeps looking back at it as he walks.
"I'm telling you... You really can't follow me home..."
He sounds so defeated though and that's probably because he knows that he's not going to win this fight. The crane is determined and that's that.

Wanna know how determined this crane is to following him, though?
Well, Naegi is at Recolle University, trying to attend class, pick up some supplies from the mentoring office, actually be in the mentoring office to help his mentees, and do some studying at school and this goddamn crane is following him. Throughout the entire school... Naegi is just pretty much trying to ignore it and going through his day like it's completely normal.
Feel free to meet him anywhere on campus grounds because this crane isn't going to leave him alone...

Anything is game! PM me or toss me a private plurk at
northpaws if you want to do something outside the above options or to discuss anything! Will be replying with action tags rather than prose!

[ he just lets out a small sigh before he shakes his head. back to trying to ignore the crane ]
Well... anyway, what's up, Shin? Do you need help with anything?
[ considering that they're in the mentoring office, he assumes that shin needs some sort of mentoring unless he wants to hang (which is also good, naegi can do that when there are no students who need help around) ]
no subject
[ Let's... try to ignore the crane, yeah, that's a good idea Naegi good thinking!!! Either ways, Shin now remembers what exactly he is here for, and he's going to just say: ]
I was kind of thinking if you're accepting commissions, and also if you'd like to hang out.
[ Beat. ]
I brought some extra sushi for lunch if you haven't eaten, by the way.
[ Yeah... ]
no subject
[ also shin, you should know that naegi almost never eats. he's the type to eat a really big breakfast consisting of multiple bowls of cereal and bagels and then not eat a lunch until he gets home late at night for a very belated dinner. that's just his life so he would love free sushi. anyway, he'll start packing up his books and put everything in his backpack so he can leave the office with shin ]
I have commissions open right now but what kind of thing are you looking for?
no subject
[ It's been a while since he hung out with Naegi, so Shin's pretty happy about this. He's been thinking of telling his last month's adventure to him just in case Naegi worries about Shin disappearing for the rest of the month since... all his homework put to the side thanks to the trip...
But yeah, Shin's just waiting for. ]
Um... Mecha. A really specific mecha, in general.
[ He sounds so unsure about saying it, since he definitely knows how hard it is to draw them. ]
no subject
Hmm, mechas aren't really my speciality but what do you have in mind?
[ if this was a commission he was getting from someone online or someone he didn't know, he would have turned it down from the start but since it's coming from shin, he's willing to least hear him out. ]
no subject
[ He's going to move away from the doorway towards the outside so he can give Naegi room to leave, but as he did that, Shin's eyes blanked out, as if he's completely zoned out.
If his previous memories are just vivid life experiences that he experienced within moments, this one is literally just information jamming itself in his head, including the flash of this thing.
Yeah, give him a second here. ]
no subject
Shin?
no subject
You know, I never thought these memory things can be this convenient at times.
[ Well, either ways, that's not that important. ]
Let's just find somewhere we can sit on the grounds so we can discuss this over sushi.
no subject
[ he nods. he'll help shin (if he needs to) and they can walk over to a nearby free table. just fastforward to them sitting down somewhere ]
So, what kind of mecha are you looking for? If you have any kind of visual references, that'd be really helpful but I can try to
BACKTAG AHOY
Well, it's definitely nothing from any Kandam series that exist right now. Since...
[ Right, he never told Naegi about his past self. ]
It's from my previous life.
no subject
You had mechas in your previous life?
