Who: Izaya and whoever wants to interact
Where: Plaza. Probably near the elevator.
When: Evening about.
Style: Action. Because.
Status: Open

[It's not that unusual to see Izaya looking happy. It's just unusual to see him lugging so much shit with him. Okay, it's not a lot, but by his standard- it's too much.

There's a telescope slung around his shoulder, a blanket under the other arm, and then a basket filled with who knows what, probably heads of dullahans or something, in his spare hand.

He's peering up at the bubble as he makes his way towards the elevator.

When. Oh no. A book that had been crammed into the top of the basket topples out. The tragedy.

But look.

Izaya keeps walking. Wow, his attention must be elsewhere pretty intense. And what is that book anyway? It looks weird. Are those instructions on human sacrifice------!!!

Actually it's just a fairy tale. But who can read kanji anyway? Aw look at the fairies-]

You don't know about Peter Pan!!

[SHOCK. On his face.]

Ahhh. It's this story of this perpetually little boy who steals children from their homes at night and flies them away to this magical place called Neverland where you never grow up and there's fairies and pirates and all sorts of things like that. It's a really good story.

I bet you'd like it-

[Oh wait. He just remembers. The last time that they had seen each other, Selphie had been miniature. Well there was also that video chat but he's not about to bring it up.]

I like you better this size, by the way.

[booyaka_boom]

Nopes! Should I? Is he famous?

*She wrinkles her nose a little at the description- fairies and pirates sounded fine, but stealing children?*

Huh...

*Oh, but that's a nice thing to say and it distracts her from bad thoughts as she laughs*

Me too!~

[kingwithnocrown]

Oh yeah. In my world he is anyway. Well. Maybe not famous but he's a famous icon of sorts. A famous classical character.

[Totally awesome. And hey, children needed to be stolen from time to time in order to learn that they had to grow up. A whole moral lesson right there.]

So Selphie, what are you doing out this late with just your pretty self for company? There's something wrong about that.

[booyaka_boom]

Oh... *Yeah, Selphie doesn't seem to know a whole lot about fictional characters being famous, or something like it. Of course, she instantly chirps up at just being called pretty - Izaya had a nice way of talking to her that she really liked*

Just..walking. I do that sometimes. For something to do. To think. But what are ~you~ up to, mister?

*Because it is a lot more suspect*

[kingwithnocrown]

You seem kind of distant though. That's never a good sign.

[No really. Don't bother undermining him. He's already a little suspicious.]

Not really your bubbly self. And I'm about to go star gazing. I've been telling people it's to locate constellations to see where we are but I really just like stars. Heh.

[booyaka_boom]

*Selphie just blinks at him for a moment, because she knows that what he's said is true. Not only has she been actually spending nights in the chocobo barn, she's been mentally and emotionally distant too*

Mm.. I guess Vatheon just does that to me sometimes..

*It did, truthfully, even if there was more to it than that. Still, she brightens immediately at the mention of stars*

Can I come with you?

[kingwithnocrown]

I understand.

[And he really does. He decides not to pry for now. Instead, he grins pleasantly when she so blatantly cheers up at the star idea.]

Obviously. I was just about to invite you along for some company. Shall we~? I'd offer you my arm but they're kinda full.

Lead the way.

[booyaka_boom]

*Oh dur, Selphie's just noticing quite how full his arms were. They obviously were, cause he dropped the book that she's still clutching*

Oh! Can I carry anything for ya?
