Violation 1.01 - [Action/Voice]

[hageshii]

[He's not a New Feather, thank you very much. Arriving a few days, Goroh quietly settled back into life in Luceti. Last time he reacted to Luceti badly. Cut off from his home and wife, he'd turned to drinking and smoking to deal with the place. If his old man had seen him, he'd have smacked him upside the head for it. Goroh had never been a typical samurai, but he'd definitely let his standards slip. It was a shock realizing he had forgotten Lisa. Not only that, but his hands were covered in blood. It was like plunging into a frozen lake, suddenly returning to Luceti with the memories of what the place had turned him into.

It's why he moved back to his old place and generally not kicked up a fuss. He'd handle this place differently this time. Smarter. But the fact of the matter was, he was still bored. He could meditate and make tea and work out for hours and he was still left with a lot of nothing to fill his time. By now he and the gang would be planning out their next job. No wonder he had watched so much TV while he was here. It was that or boozing. (If only he knew the Dome had been upgraded, huh?)

Well. Only one way to solve this.]

Slayer girl. I heard you've been taking care of my TV while I was gone. I'll be taking that off your hands now. Be sure to have it all packed up when I stop by this evening.

As for everyone else, if you didn't see me already, guess you could say I'm back. The name's Samurai Goroh, but don't get any high minded ideas of noble warrior from me. I'm in the pirating business. Space piracy, that is. Not that there's much call for that kind of thing around here. I spent a year here before, but never found much of a hobby that matched that kind of excitement. So how about some suggestions. Just don't try to stick me with some kid's stuff, understood?

[Later on, Goroh's in town. He'll poke around the general store, hoping to find some weights to work with. He can't go letting himself get soft around here. No stop at the bar, though. He's keeping a low profile, just staying on the essentials. Maybe he'll pick up some food for later. He only shares his kitchen with one other person right now (that's Chun Li), so he'll be displaying a rarely seen act of cooking finesse all up in his apartment. Who knows, lovers of some classic Japanese food may be attracted to the third floor of Building Two if they happen to be in the stairwell.]

[ she'll get to the rest in a moment.

first: ] You're back.

[ voice ]

[hageshii]

Try not to sound too excited about it.

[ voice ]

[herotypical]

Hey. I'd be keener if you weren't trying to steal back my inheritance.

[ voice ]

[hageshii]

If I wanted to steal it, you would've woke up with one less TV.

[ voice ]

[herotypical]

Providing I didn't interrupt your burglary.

[voice]

[gardeningaia]

You spent a year and couldn't find anything you'd like to do? Pirating must have spoiled you, Mr. Goroh. [ Granted with Luceti she can't think of anything quite that exciting unless he wants to take up pirating again... or extreme sports, maybe.

She'd definitely encourage the extreme sports before the pirating. ]

[voice]

[hageshii]

[Well well, if it ain't Pinky. She used his name, so he assumes she recognizes him.]

Oh, I found ways of passing the time. But this time around, I'd rather have some healthier hobbies.

[voice]

[gardeningaia]

[ She is being polite, he introduced himself! ...Well. Semi-polite, as she hasn't introduced herself yet. ]

...Not fighting, was it? [ She wouldn't be surprised with the population as it is. ] Hmmm... what do you think about sports?

[voice]

[hageshii]

You know me, Pinky. The only kind of sport I like is the high speeds kind. No chance of that here.

[voice]

[gardeningaia]

'Pinky'? [ She laughs. ] I'm Aerith!

...Wait, do I know you? Ah-- [ There's a bit of a frown in her voice as she thinks back. ] I got here last November...if it was before then, I'm sorry. I don't remember at all.

[Voice]

[not_meatbuns]

No kid's hobbies, hm?

[Don't mind Litchi, she's in a really good mood to be here and so she'll be teasing.]

I don't suppose knitting would be an acceptable suggestion either, then.

[Voice]

[hageshii]

Or much appreciated either.

[Voice]

[not_meatbuns]

I'm sorry, Mr. Goroh, I couldn't resist.

There are plenty of opportunities to find a good hobby here now, though. The range has improved a bit, it seems.

[Voice]

[hageshii]

That so? How?

[Voice]

[not_meatbuns]

Well, I went by the Battle Dome to see how everything was going with the clinic, and... apparently, there have been some extensions to what it can do since you were last here. I'm sure you can find something to pass the time with.

[Nothing]

[selphie_t]

[Well now, this is a face that Selphie hasn't seen or heard from in quite some time and she's... not really sure she wants to get involved with Goroh again. To make things even better, he seems to remember being here before and that's just leaving Selphie with a great feeling of uncertainty.

Usually, she'd welcome people back but she's not entirely sure if Goroh even liked her that much. Instead, she closes her journal and ponders just who the heck is being brought back to Luceti next.]

[Voice]

[capsuleprincess]

A year here and didn't find much of a hobby? Suddenly I feel I shouldn't complain that I spent months before deciding what to do.

[Voice]

[hageshii]

Oh, I found things to do. It's just best I don't make hobbies of them again.

[Voice]

[capsuleprincess]

Is that so? Let me guess, those weren't healthy hobbies for you? Or were they not healthy for others?

[This covers from drinking to blowing people to pieces, yep.]

[Voice]

[hageshii]

Oh, I'd call it a little bit of both. But I'm going clean this time.

[Voice]

[capsuleprincess]

Well, I suppose you could give good use to the Battle Dome. That seems to be the trend with guys here, actually.

[Action...in the kitchen]

[feetoffury]

[Chun-Li has yet to meet the individual she shares a kitchen with, until today. She's just coming back from an evening run, and pops in to make a bit of tea, where...she happens to bump into one of those displays of amazing cooking skills. She is, of course...impressed and compelled to say hello at least]

Wow, thats pretty impressive.

Sorry to interrupt you sir. It seems we're sharing the kitchen, so I suppose its proper to introduce myself. I'm Chun-Li.

[kitchaction then]

[hageshii]

[He'd stayed on this same floor over a year ago, when he first arrived in Luceti. It had been natural for him to return to it. Until this moment, he didn't realize he'd been sharing it with anyone else. He stopped what he was doing to glance over his shoulder at the woman making her greeting.]

Seems so. Didn't know there was anyone else on this floor. [Grabbing a nearby towel, he used it to dry off his hands.] People call me Samurai Goroh. But seeing as we'll be neighbors, just Goroh will do.

[kitchaction]

[feetoffury]

[She nods and smiles. He seems pleasant enough]

Yep. I've only been here a few days, so I had no idea if anyone else was around either. Its nice to meet you though. [She'll offer a small, polite bow in typical Hong-Kong fashion. If he's really a samurai, he deserves that much at least]

What are you cooking? It smells pretty good.

[kitchaction]

[hageshii]

[Well, that's polite. His own gang tend to be like that around him. As their 'master', he doesn't usually return the gesture. Here, he only gives a small nod and a small wave of the hand.]

This? Nothing too fancy. Some rice balls and a little salt-grilled fish. I guess you could say I'm feeling a bit nostalgic today. It's good stuff, you should try some.
