❀ WEAPONS SHOP; closed to shirou emiya

[punches]

[ With most of her supplies diminished due to the war, in her mind first and foremost was the goal of restocking her weaponry. With the housing bill covered for the next few months and both of her companions from home working at a ramen shop, she didn't necessarily need to concern herself with food. This meant she had a fair bit of change to spend on the essentials and having the right tools did everything for a shinobi.

The district was large, but ninja were trained in a variety of skills that made the search easy. Analytic in nature, the process of elimination was simple in Sakura's mind and with the ease of speed instilled in her, the hunt didn't take much time at all. What did take up her time was the amount of weaponry presented. There were things she thought were outdated or prohibited by law, and then there were items she's never seen before in all of her training.

Right now she was occupied with a package of throwing stars, inspecting one thoughtfully before turning to throw it into the wall. Instead of it sticking, it shatters completely due to the amount of strength used behind it and creates a lovely mess of broken metal on the floor. ]

Just as I thought. [ What a piece of junk. ]

✿ CERES GAME CENTER; closed to naruto uzumaki

[punches]

[ Sleep doesn't come easy, but then again there's no rest for the weary. Her first night was one of restlessness and in the end, she chose to leave the apartment assigned to her to travel throughout the district, leaping from roof to roof. No matter how much time she devoted to it, how much energy she expended in her exercise, it did nothing to wear her down. The war is over, but the adrenaline still pumps through her veins into a heart that yearns for one who isn't here.

(Of course it does. That will never change.)

Sakura's next night is full of the same. Instead of soaring through the sky, she shuffles along a path on the ground. Mentally she's thousand and thousand of miles away, wondering what had happened to all the lives she touched (saved) and if everything she's heard here is true. Both Naruto and Lee didn't seem all that concerned, yet it was possible they were trying to be strong for her.

Her feet stop once the noise she's filtered out all this time finally reaches her ears. Strange beeps and pitched music surrounds her as she lifts her gaze, taking in the sights. What... was all of this? Technology still is a bit out of her understanding, but she's enclosed completely in it. Panicked (only a bit), she turns to get away as quickly as she can, but instead collides right into a familiar warmth. With the way his arms fall around her, he shields her from her confusion and in turn causes her to regain her senses. ]

You should be asleep, Naruto.

❀ CERES GARDENS; open to anyone

[punches]

[ With the possibilities of useful herbs in the garden, it didn't take Sakura long to set aside time for a visit. While there were many couples strolling through and enjoying the sights, she was clearly traveling alone. Looking beyond the paths at the unfamiliar, but healthy enough foliage at the stuff growing in deeper, her focus isn't to relax. She's here to gather.

When she's not stepping out of the way of others on the path, Sakura can be found doing a number of peculiar things that force her to stand out:

    (A) Crossing a large pool of water by walking on top of it. How is she doing it and why aren't there any ripples? She's that good.
    (B) Walking up alongside a tree trunk vertically as if it's no big deal. She might even stop mid-climb and wave at someone who calls up to her. What's up? Oh, it's her.
    (C) Carefully trimming a plant into a container before she tucks it away in the bag she's brought with her. Might want to stop her before security catches her.

Not that she's too busy to stop and speak with people. There's nothing about her that suggests she's hostile or dangerous, just curious much like a child in a new playground might be. ]
