[open] ring ring, bingo?

WHO: Ritsu Kageyama and people who are probably nicer than him
WHERE: All around the city
WHEN: Throughout July
WHAT: Frustrated teen wants answers, does silly things for it; July catch-all, you know the drill!
WARNINGS: None for now!

[ My plotting post for bingo help is over here! ]

i. At least they're not grayberries

[ On the university school grounds of Apprassage, Ritsu mans a respectably built stand of questionable legality. He's fairly certain he can get away with it even with age alone, his professor guardian may have lost his memories of Retrospec, but was supportive in Ritsu's inexplicable one-day business venture. ]

Blueberry juice.
Freshly squeezed.
We have ice.

[ Now that sure is a passionate sales voice, yessir. Also before anyone asks, it's a Royal We. ]

ii. The hero nobody deserves

[ Some kid in a mask stands... uhh. Not that tall. Not that proudly. Maintaining a cross-armed pose lacking in passion. But the summer wind blows, and his cape dramatically flutters. He really hated he got a task like this in summer. He'd hate it all other seasons too but now the weather would be against him as well. Should've checked the forecast, should've picked another day. Wished he had money for sunglasses instead of goggles.

... Should concede and open up that umbrella, now before he gets sunburn. And maybe the shade would make him slightly harder to recognize. Ah, who was he kidding. He looks like some lost kid who wanted to celebrate Halloween a full couple months early. ]


Hey, you.

[ There's a point now, sorry if you were trying to ignore him. ]

Tell me, what do superheroes do?

iii. Maybe impossible

"Flash mob"...

[ Echoing the text on the square as he's seated at Tribunal Terrace, there's a frown on Ritsu's face even more intense than his usual one. He goes ahead and watches a video, shaking his head in defiance after a couple seconds. He's seated outside so the lack of earphones shouldn't bother too many people, but some might've still heard a pop song or Broadway that they knew. ]

No way. Definitely no way. A musical isn't any better. I can't do this kind of thing even with a team. Did anyone else get this kind of assignment? There's no role I can fit.

[ Could always be Robert during Enchanted, does that count Ritsu? Watching on, his will seems to be wilting, and his brows remain furrowed. ]

... Is this supposed to be music?

[ Well, even if you can't help him with such a monumental task, you can still take those as fighting words. ]

[ Oh no, don't apologize... ]

I assure you, I was caught up in nonsense long before we met.
saburai: ((⊙︿⊙✿))

Yes, as of late. That's exactly why things have been strange for me recently.

I presume you are as well?
saburai: ((∩⌣̀_⌣́))

[personal profile] saburai 2017-07-28 04:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ That explains that, yep. ]

Well, you never know. I'm sure there are some people who never outgrow such fantasies.
saburai: ((`Θ´))

[personal profile] saburai 2017-07-29 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
What is your task, exactly? To pretend to be a superhero and perform a certain number of good deeds?

[ That would explain his earlier request, at least... ]

If so, we could probably come up with a few small things for you to do so it doesn't take too long.
saburai: ((・_-。 ))

[personal profile] saburai 2017-07-29 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
You've certainly taken this assignment very seriously.

[ Honestly, she's kind of impressed. She'd been going more for the letter of the law than the spirit, herself. ]

Well, I said I'd help you out, and I won't take that back now.
saburai: (thoughtful ♙ and through correct and)

[personal profile] saburai 2017-07-30 04:18 am (UTC)(link)
Agreed.

[ Picking up trash in the midday heat doesn't sound very appealing, after all. ]

Shall we split up, then, to cover the most area?
saburai: (unsure ♙ to strive for improvement)

[personal profile] saburai 2017-08-02 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
That... sounds like a very good idea. It wouldn't be very sanitary otherwise.

[ Not unless they had those little claw-picker-uppers, anyway. ]
saburai: ((・θ・))

[ Kaguya will pay for her half of the materials as well, ignoring the clerk's confusion. It's not worth trying to explain bingo shenanigans to people out of the loop, especially not over small talk. ]

Truly, they are the unsung heroes of our city.

[ Since she... never really thought much about how difficult a job it would be, before. ]

If nothing else, hopefully this task will make their work slightly easier for a day.
