[open] even if we're just dancing in the park
WHO: Megumi & YOU!
WHERE: All around the city.
WHEN: All throughout the month!
WHAT: Various activities, such as encouraging strangers to start impromptu dance performances with her, conducting a literature hunt, and some exploring.
WARNINGS: None! Will be added if there are any.
[ I. won't you dance with me? ]
[ It's a nice day for dancing, isn't it?
Well, maybe you won't think so. It's cool and the air is damp with the feeling of oncoming rain, the sky overhead white and gray. But as far as Megumi is concerned, it's perfect. The weather suits her complicated mood.
So if you're passing through the park you'll find her dancing without a care in the world. There's no sound but the wind, but you'd almost think there's music for how fluidly she moves. Though she doesn't just dance ballet. She'll fluidly move into hip hop and get seriously into it, laughing and beaming as she moves. From there she'll move right into interpretive dance, which is just ... weird. Her movements are sharp, and she's openly emotional as she stomps and gestures, tearing her hair band from her ponytail with a sharp flourish.
Oh, did you happen to stop to watch? Not a great move. Show enough interest and Megumi will dance right over to you, smiling as she tugs on your hands. ]
Dance with me!
[ Linger long enough, and it will start, predictably, to rain. A distant rumble of thunder sounds overhead, and Megumi will stop only briefly, gaping at the sky. And then the rain pours down in a sudden ferocious sheet, and she gasps a laugh as water slicks her hair to her face. Delighted, she'll only keep dancing. ]
Doesn't this make you feel alive?
[ II. school's not out, cuz it's not summer ]
[ II.A ]
[ It's a Saturday, and Megumi is at the library. More than one library. That is, one week you may catch her at the library on campus, browsing shelves, looking serious and thoughtful. There's a piece of paper in her hand, and from a glance it looks like the text on it is laid out in a list. Perhaps she's looking for something? ]
Hmm... where should I even start?
[ II.B ]
[ The next week she'll be at the city library instead, her arms full of books. They're all classic literature, from Moby Dick to Frankenstein, The Canterbury Tales to The Grapes of Wrath. She's holding a few too many... she seems to be having a little trouble hanging onto them all as she walks. Unsurprisingly, she drops one, making a noise of dismay when it flops partially open on the floor. ]
Oh no! I hope I haven't bent the pages...
[ ... there's no tables nearby ... should she put the books on the floor so she can grab the fallen one?
Or maybe you'll help her out of this dilemma. ]
[ III. hi ho, hi ho, adventuring we go ]
[ III.A ]
[ Despite her lack of powers and fighting experience, Megumi isn't very shy about exploring outside the city. Quite the opposite of that, in fact. She has to work around her schedule, so her outings are pretty irregular, but all throughout the month you can find her just two of the directions one can leave the city in: east and west. She's always got a backpack with supplies, and a few other items, such as what seems to be a can of mace in a holster on her hip, plus an ... aluminum baseball bat? Sure, why not.
If she spots you she'll light up and wave. ]
Hey! You're not planning to head out there too, are you? I'd really love some company.
[ III.B - CLOSED to respondents from this post ]
[ If you answered her post to come along on one of her expeditions, then you'll find her at the timeand place you agreed to meet. Like her other trips, she's got the backpack and, uh, weapons." But this time she also has an extra bag of snacks! ]
Thanks for coming! I really appreciate it. Are you ready to go?

I thought you'd never ask... Truthfully, I wished to join you, but didn't want to intrude on any personal practice you may have been having. [ The fact it's going to rain soon doesn't trouble her at all either, so she's ready to go!! ] But first, introductions are in order... Unless you're the type to dance without knowing your partner's name? Scandalous.
[ ......she's a lot i'm sorry ]
no subject
[ she'll break away to twirl, laughing as she steps lightly back in to take Eliabeth's hands again. ]
Is it scandalous? Personally, I think it's sort of cool and mysterious...
[ the smile on her face is a little mischievous. she can take you, elizabeth!! ]
no subject
I suppose that it is, isn't it? Reminiscent of two ships passing in the night... [ a soft laugh, and she steps away again ] The best romances are born from that, or so I've heard. I feel as if one simply ends up chasing ghosts if the ship is too pretty to forget about, however.
