[OPEN] At Dusk, I'll Think Of You

WHO: Sora and You!
WHERE: All around the town
WHEN: All of June
WHAT: June Catchall and Bingo Prompts!
WARNINGS: n/a

One would think that, with all of the NPCs missing and half the city still unpainted, Sora would be pretty upset, right? After all, his history of dealing with things hasn't exactly been the best.

Well, you'd be wrong there. In fact, Sora seems downright cheerful, as if it was even possible to be more optimistic than he usually is. He's working his fingers to the bone, helping everyone he comes across and then some, and at any one time he'll be working on one thing or another. Geeze, does this kid ever take a break?

[TRIBUNAL TERRACE] 101 Dalmatians, except not really

If you thought Sora would be doing any of the other things on the list for Tribunal Terrace, then you don't know him at all. Every single day in June, he swings by the firestation to check up on the dogs that have been left behind by their firefighter partners, making sure they're happy and well fed and that someone's let them out for a bit.

He's so used to being the only one here, it's a bit of a surprise to show up and see someone else doing the same.

"Oh, hey. Did you come to see the dogs, too?"

[APPRASSAGE] Where's Bob Ross when you need him

An artist, Sora is not, but hey, he's trying. There's still plenty of white space that needs seeing to, walls and walls of blank canvas to him to practice on, and a bright blue paintbrush for him to play with. Mostly, he's just trying to fill in more buildings, but every once in a while you might come across a stick figure with spiky hair that looks vaguely like a certain high school graduate.

If you follow the stick figures, you'll eventually find their owner with his tongue sticking out of his mouth while he makes another attempt at it.

[CHATA] More like 102 Various Breeds of Dogs

Sora volunteers at the Animal Shelter regularly anyway, so the only real difference for him is nearly tripling the amount of time he'd normally be there. It's not any trouble for him to up his hours, especially now that school is out. If you're looking for him, chances are this is where you'll find him. 

Additionally, sometime around the last week of the month, a large hand painted sign will show up on the front door of the shelter advertising that an adoption drive was currently ongoing, and all adoption fees would be waived for the entire week. The sign is messy, but legible, and looks like it was painted in ocean blue. There's a cheerful voice at the front desk upon entering, where Sora's sitting with a cat on his lap and paint smeared on his cheek.

"Hi! Can I help you?"

[VIEA VILLAGE] I can safely blame this entirely on James

The Farmers Market isn't usually Sora's scene, but there's an exception for that today. Set up at a booth in the middle of the busy square, there's a messy sign made with blue paint tacked to the front that reads;

'Kittens free to a good home!!!'

It's also decorated with flowers and smiley faces, and on the front table there's a tip jar made with the same scribbled handwriting. It counts as selling if you're able to make money in tips, right?

Behind the booth, in a large crate with high walls, are five sweet little tabby kittens that are about ten weeks old playing and sleeping and meowing. There's also a mama cat, also up for adoption, curled up in the bin with them. Sora's dog Buck, who is absolutely not up for adoption, is tied by his leash to the front table and sitting calmly to the side, while Sora himself is playing with the kittens with a piece of string. He looks up easily whenever someone approaches.

"Heya! Are you interested in one of my friends here?"

[ENPRISE] 3 days or less, or your order is free

Enprise was definetly the hardest to choose a good deed for. All of the things on Zee's list sounded like fun, and theoretically Sora could do them all, but he's not completely oblivious to his own limitations at least. Maybe if he had time travel powers...

At any rate, he's decided the best thing to do is to pick the one that would help people the most. And, judging from the packages and letters still flying around the streets after falling from the sky last month, delivering the mail would probably be it. Sometime during the month, you might find a teenager running up to you and asking your name.

"Hi! I think this is yours, right?" he says, handing you a letter with your address on it.

[TISSE] He's probably eaten like three of them himself

After picking up a few dozen cupcakes from Minako, Sora can be found just down the street handing them out to anyone who walks past. They're all chocolate, but the frosting is a rainbow of different colors, and the kid's fingers are stained similarly from picking them up out of the boxes. He'll happily give you as many as you want, if you ask.

Even if you don't want one, too bad, he's shoving one into your hands anyway. But how could you resist his sweet smile he gives it to you?

[RECOLLE] You knew it was coming eventually

As the month goes on, Sora's manic energy from the beginning of June begins to dip. It's slow at first, barely noticeable unless you know him well. But then the bags under his eyes become more pronounced, his hair messier than normal, and it seems like he's always working. No matter where you find him, he's working on something, and really when does the kid find the time to sleep? He's a high school graduate now, shouldn't he be finding the time to go out and have fun while summer vacation lasts?

He doesn't seem to think so. There's really way too much to do, there's no way he can just stop and make someone else do it. And though it all, he's never anything but sweet and cheerful, a smile for anyone who so much as glances his way. Working and smiling seem to be what he's living for right now.

But even Sora can't keep it up forever, and it's only a matter of time before he crashes. If that day happens to be the last day of June, you can find him at his house, alone and curled up on his bed.

[He sees various bright blue figures and follows then and sees Sora attempting to paint another one, Al leans against a wall near by and lets him go at it for a little while longer, then he smiles]

So you paint stick figures too? I guess I've found someone to do that self portrait thing then...

Sabo probably shouldn't be here, he already has one dog and she's more than enough trouble on her own, but after having walked passed the sign advertising the adoption drive for the fifth time he finally caves and walks inside to take a look. There's no harm in looking, right?

"Hi." His smile is big and friendly, and widens even more at the sight of the cat. "And I hope so. I saw the sign about the adoption drive on the door, thought I'd check it out."

[Of course, the one time he doesn't want anyone to find him, she finds him, stepping into the house with Koromaru at her heels.]

Sora? Are you here?

[She called him multiple times, wondering if he wanted to come over for dinner. Normally if he doesn't answer she assumes he's busy, but with the city the way it is, with the civilians the way they are, she doesn't like the idea of him not picking up.

Minako walks through the house, ignoring the sounds of her aunt and Shiori conversing, and heads upstairs.]

[Al chuckles, finding it both amusing and refreshing to be around someone so positive]

I never knew that COULD be a specialty!

[Al tries to grab some napkins out of his jacket, but ends up with various candy bars before EVENTUALLY actually getting some napkins and hands it out to him]

Want some before or after putting Da Vinchi to shame?

Sabo considers the question for a moment before shrugging a bit sheepishly.

"Not exactly. I was thinking maybe someone who might have a bit of a problem getting adopted compared to others. I've always had a bit of a soft spot for the underdog, so to speak, and I think I have the time and energy for it." So much for just looking. But then, hadn't he already known that would be the case if he ever walked through that door. "The only restriction that I'm aware of is that I already have a dog, which they'd have to be able to live with."

[Buck will get so many pets, and then because Minako has gotten pretty good at reading dog body language, she does indeed follow even though the whole affair has her worry spiking up exponentially, setting a hand on the doorknob and pausing on the threshold.]

Soraaa...I'm coming in, okay?

[Because she's not going to wait for permission anymore, not when it concerns Sora's mental health. Minako pushes the door back and steps in.]

Im sure we both shall make such life like stick figures

Also, why so many?

[ He puts his hands up in response]

I'm not judging, I can't draw much either...but I mean, if it helps the city right?

[ James is wary of the bin full of cats. He never really understood how to interact with him and he feels like they're staring into his soul and judging him whenever they look in his direction.

So uh, don't mind him, he's just gonna sit next to Sora's dog and pet him a little while he helps with this adoption effort. Buck and Bucky, a match made in heaven.

But he does occasionally look over at the cats to check up on them. Just to make sure they're all still there. ]


Where did you even find them?

[He shurgs]

I have noooooo idea, I'm new to the app thing, soooo, yeah...

[He looks at the stick figure Sora made and puts his hand on his chin like he is really looking at it, and tries to sound super snobby, with a (albeit terrible) fake British accent, to sound fancy!]

I say good sir, a classic self portrait if I've ever seen one...light blue is a very cheerful color so must be the chap who made this, wouldn't you say?

[He smiles wide, might as well have a bit of fun with the task to save the city right?]
kagepuro: Hey. I made this. (20)

"She's a bit over a year, so she's still very young. Does that make it better or worse? I've had her since she was eight weeks. She's done pretty fine socializing with other dogs so far, though how much of that might translate to this situation I don't know."

He looks somewhat like a proud parent when he talks about his dog and Sora should probably be grateful that he hasn't tried to show him any pictures yet. Because there are a lot of them.

Oh sweetheart...

[She makes her way over to the bedside, sitting down and reaching over to offer her hand for him to hold. It's distressing to see him like this, and her instincts to fixfixfix are kicking into overdrive.]

Sora, what's wrong?
