hageshii | Violation 1.01 - [Action/Voice]

[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.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

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. ]

[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.

[ 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?

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

'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.

[Oh. Damn, bad luck then.]

That so? Guess I was right, then.

Right about what?

That you'd come back forgetting. Seems to be a habit of yours.

H--Hmph! Sor-ry. You should know no one here means to do that.

[ Does it still bug her? .......Yep. Revolving door, noooo. ]

Of course not. But don't count on the nickname going away.

Hey, maybe while you were gone I switched colors, what would you say about that?

[ Of course, he can at least see from the journal snapshot that she's still wearing that pink ribbon, so... ]

I only need to know what you were wearing the first time we met. That's the advantage of memories.

[So don't try to weasel out of it by expanding your wardrobe.]

When you say it like that, I guess I should feel special.

That you should. We were pretty close back then. More so than you'd imagine.

[ Uh... ]

Hey, what do you mean by that?

Nothing to worry about, Pinky. It's all in the past now.

I might have to worry about that good memory of yours though. You might never be able to forget it! [ There's a very quiet giggle that suggests she doesn't find it an actual problem, though, so much as something that's got her curious now. ]

Oh, I doubt I will. Something like that sticks with you forever. [She really did make for a nice girlfriend.]

Oh! That's not fair, you said it was all in the past! You're teasing me.

That's what I always do, Pinky.

I'll get you back, just wait.

Oh, I'll be interested to see you try. Not too many people are ever successful in taking me down.

I'll be there when you least expect it~ So don't let yourself get too bored again!

We've only just met again and already you're planning to start stalking me again. Some things just don't change, do they?

Wh--whaaaaat? [ Okay that's definitely Goroh: 2, Aerith: 0 so far. ] I'm not a stalker! ...And that's really not something I'd call "being close".
