WHO: Nanashi and friends
WHERE: Inside the city, going around places
WHEN: 4/7
WHAT: He's dealing with the loss of his humanity and turning undead.
WARNINGS: Mentions of death and dying all over this post. Usual Megaten warnings apply.
1. In the streets
[If you're the type of person who hangs around the streets of Recolle at night, you may find Nanashi all by himself. He mumbles nonsensical phrases and sometimes shouts loudly. It's almost disruptive, but he really doesn't care about that. Nanashi can sense the presence of spirits more strongly than before. Honestly, it's both pissing him off and tripping him out. ]
Would you stop that already? You've been at it for hours.... [Why were there so many things he couldn't see before? Why is retrospec doing this to him? Nanashi shakes his head in disbelief. ]
What is so fun about dancing without a shirt on? Oh my god. I regret everything, I'm sorry I've sinned in my past life.
Now stop haunting me. Take this as an offering.
[Nanashi passes your character two silver coins for good luck!! Are you going to take it or not?]
[For characters who've known Nanashi from before: you'd notice his eyes are green instead of brown like in his icons. ]

2. In the forest
["This gun is fake". It's an excuse he's used many times before. and he's gotten away with owning a pistol so far. Nanashi feels like trying it out in the open. He's right outside the city borders with a demon and a pistol. Surely, nothing will go wrong. Just leave a 15yold with guns. This is fine.
Tin cans are lined up all in a row and he's using them for target practice. He hasn't missed anything yet. They all have noticeable dents and holes in them. Nanashi's reaction times are a bit slow however. It's taking him such a long time reload every shot. His hands feel numb and it's hard for him to move in general. Eventually he puts everything down and tries to rest. Take a breather.
You can either find him:
a. shooting things and reloading bullets in realtime
b. taking it easy chilling with a demonic bird. or
c. wild card me because these aren't terribly interesting. ]
--------
3. Anywhere inside the city
[Nanashi awkwardly stumbles and can't seem to hold his ground. Being undead is exhausting. At this rate he may never pull himself together again. He decides that he'll give up and stop moving for a while. This is the worst!!!
If you're unlucky he'll crash right into you. Surprise.
Otherwise, he can be found taking a nap on a bench somewhere. Let the kid rest....or wake him up rudely. That works too. He did run away from home without warning. Nanashi looks like a disaster. ]
-----------
[Inside Jouhei's place: Closed - Jouhei, Shinn. ]
[Nanashi spent most of his day normally. He's staying at Jouhei's place for various reasons. They had dinner and now he was planning on sitting next to the sofa. The next thing he does is open up a history book. It's not like Nanashi knows what he wants to be when he grows up yet. He just entered highschool and adjusting to the new content is hard. He still tries to put effort into learning it though. Getting a good job is important to him and everything.
After sometime he falls asleep on the sofa. School can be draining. He shifts to the side awkwardly.
A few minutes later he rolls over and drops to the floor. Of course this causes him to wake up in surprise. All the energy in his body suddenly disappeared. That's not the weird part. Suddenly his senses seem off somehow.
His body doesn't feel like his own. The world feels like a colder place too. Nanashi can't get off the floor even if he puts all his effort into it.
So instead he screams very loudly. Jouhei would have heard that. He's banking on his cousin to be around. Help? Jouheiiiii.
Nanashi thinks he's going to die for real.
Did he eat something weird for dinner that day? Nope.
Did some thug sucker punch him on the way home from school? Not at all. He's been staying out of fights for the most part.
The fact that all of this is happening is very surreal. Screaming for help is tiring so he may just go fall asleep again.
Jouhei can slap this kid awake or something. ]

[My plurk is
no subject
....
[There's a long pause and silence that seems to last on for ages.]
So before I came here I was living in a shop with my sister. They sold guns.
[oops??? ]
no subject
[He stands there wondering if he should just leave or stay, taking a small breath and hating himself for like looking like he's panicking.]
It's uh...geeze...I guess that explains why you know how to use them...are you under some sort of police protection?
[God. He has to sit down. So he does on a nearby convenient plot rock.]
My family is kinda famous...if they knew I was here I'm pretty sure my mom would ship me back right into Canada to stay in our summer home for the rest of my life.
no subject
[He's been there.]
You'd be a lot safer in Canada. Isn't it cold there? What's winter like?
[Do you live in a frigid hell?]
no subject
[He shrugs.]
Canada is just safer in general but for someone like my dad, it's not good enough. It was either this place or Hollywood you know. Winter's okay. I didn't really get the brute of it, by the time I was five, my parents already had a lot of money, we had people coming in to clean our yard during the snowstorms.
no subject
I'd say my family was pretty wealthy too. Just not in the way you think.
[Dirty yakuza cash smh.]
Do you like life in the city here? It's not so bad when Retrospec isn't doing weird bullshit.
no subject
[His money is as clean as it comes in the business.]
Honestly I like it a lot. I've gotten to meet friends I only knew online here and despite it all, I kinda enjoy being a part of all of this...to get memories of something I didn't know back and getting random shit like this...
[He points to his guitar case.]
no subject
People here are mostly nice. [There are shitty people too, but he hasn't had the misfortune of experiencing that so much.]
I like staying here too. I wouldn't mind living here if it wasn't for the app nonsense.
no subject
[Unconsciously, he can't help but shiver.]
I'm okay with the app, if only it made me find new people...and understand some others. But I know it's not for everyone.
no subject
[He's serious.]
This app sure as hell isn't for me. All of my memories suck.
[There wasn't a single good memory. He sounds bitter about it. ]
no subject
[I mean he's sort of touched but no murder? No?]
Ahhh man...I'm sorry.
[He looks at the demon again.]
What about it?
no subject
[He doesn't know where to begin with his messed up memories.]
Maybe I'll save it for another day.
[He'll spare Mishina from all the smtiv bs.]
no subject
[He looks at the bird like...hmm...]
Man I wonder what would happen if I sang to you...I talked to something like you in my memories. Well sort of. It was a snake thing.
[Cough.]
Anyway. Show me what you got I guess if you don't wanna talk?
no subject
[He points at the birdie.]
He seems important somehow. I don't know why yet.
no subject
[He gives the bird demon a tiny little pat on the head.]
Well if anything he is super cute. Demon! Even if you're from hell, don't forget to be your true self!
no subject
[He knows Michel means well.]
I hate demons as much as I hate guns. [Oops.]
All I really wanted was a normal life. This is a bit much.. [What the fuck is he doing with a demon anyways? It angers him to think about demons and gods so he's taking his frustration out on those poor cans with those pistols. ]
no subject
Well...it depends what you do with them...
[He sighs.]
Honestly I can't compare my life to yours. I sort of have it going good, all things considered, so I can't say to think positive about it but hey...at least I can try to help, yeah?
[With that he looks at the cans.]
You wanna try with something different? I got this from my other life...
[Michel, it's a guitar case.]
no subject
[He's pessimistic and he can't see things heading in a good direction from this point forward. He looks at Michel with this tired expression. ]
It's good to know that I'm not alone. Thanks.
[So then he peers down at the guitar case in curiosity.]
What's that?
no subject
[It's the thought that counts, right? He's glad for the change of subject however and produces it to him.]
Uh, something you probably won't like considering what we just talked about?
[There's a slight teasing nature to it.]
It's one way to hide a weapon, that's what.
no subject
You don't need to think about hiding weapons unless you're up to no good.
[He sighs and slumps.]
no subject
Well whatever I did back then, I needed it, it is what it is.
[He's only hiding it because it was made for hiding.]
The only no good I'll be up to is fighting whatever shows up here to cause trouble and protecting the city cause despite all the shit I still like this place. I know it might not be the same for you. There's gotta be some things that make you happy...right?
no subject
[He doesn't care about Retrospec as a whole and wishes he could just delete it off the face of the planet. It's making him miserable. Thinking of things that used to make him happy doesn't seem....right.]
I'm gonna say something that'll piss you off. Can we talk about this another time?
no subject
Tch. If you say so...you know, we're all entitled to our opinions. I can understand of you hate all of this...I've met someone else like that too...
[Plus you're like what, 15? He's had this phase, he can't imagine what it's like when you've got magical shit added in. He takes out from the white bag the bento box he had bought at a restaurant on his way here. He had been coming here to relax before running into the sound of shooting and demonic birds.]
Want some?
[It looked pretty fresh.]
no subject
[It becomes incredibly distressing to relieve memories of your past life. Sometimes it's even painful...]
No, it's fine. I'll pass. Don't have an appetite. You should eat up though.
[Michel needs his energy even if Nanashi doesn't particularly feel like eating anything.]
no subject
[He knows he probably has some pretty painful ones waiting too. Saving the world probably has a few hiccups, after all. He looks down at his box somewhat disappointed but doesn't say anything.]
Ahh...'kay then. [Food's not as fun when you're eating it alone. This entire meeting had been quite a wash, really.] ...so what do you plan on doing?
no subject
[Too tired for food. Sorry Michel.]
It's not as easy as it looks.
