open!
Who: Yata
rollin & you!
When: at various times between December 13 and 15
Where: various
What: Yata sucks at gardening, looks for people to play vivid with, has a tendency to run into people with meet cutes, etc.
Rating/Warning: PG because of language
a; it sounds like a joke; "a thug walks into a flower shop..." (shopping district)
[ Someone like Yata into indoor gardening is a rare sight, so he is met with a few raised eyebrows as walks down the streets with a pot of forget-me-nots in his hands, wilting due to reasons one can already guess from appearances alone. He seems particularly worried about his current predicament though, and if you're close enough, you might hear him talk to himself. ]
Where the hell is the plant doctor? Do those even exist? Why are flowers so high maintenance, anyway? [ No, Yata, you're just wrong. He sighs. ] I'm so dead...
[ He's this close to just asking Totsuka.
OR! You can find him at an NPC-run flower shop, (but not the one Vietnam works at!) fidgeting awkwardly. ]
b; it feels like he waited nine long years (game center)
[ There's a holographic display advertising the new available scenarios in ViViD! One of them is called Last Legend XXV, in which up to four players can explore an open-world environment, fight monsters and complete quests as they go on a mission to seize their kingdom's crystal from the clutches of their enemies! New features include the ability to switch weapons during battle, vehicle travel... and camping...? Another is called Zokuzoku Remembrance, a new action/romance (!?) game that will get your heart pounding in more ways than one. It seems to be a straight up beat-'em-up game, but the ad also says you have to "fight for your love". What does that mean? Yata sure doesn't know. The last one is a more musical game called Star Show! in which you can sing, dance and fight aliens as an intergalactic super idol. While Yata has some reservations regarding the selection, he's just happy to see games he already knew about up there. ]
Hehe, I tested some of these! Man, the new Last Legend looks cooler now that it's finished...
[ OR! If you're alone, Yata might catch you looking at the display instead. Which ad is your character looking at? He'll definitely have something to say about it. ]
c; he'd punch them for you if he knew how to drive (anywhere)
[ Maybe you're busy on your Cerevice, texting your friends and browsing the network. Maybe you're way into this song on your music player, or need to get something that flew out of your grasp and onto the street. Maybe you're just a little out of it today. Whatever the reason, you're about to absentmindedly cross the road. However, a hand forcefully pulls you by the collar, the back of your shirt, or your wrist; and in the short instant it takes the traffic lights to change from red to green, a group of motorcycles zoom past you at an incredible speed. You're safe, but the voice behind you seems to be angrier than you should be. ]
Assholes... Hey, you okay?
[ Whether he looks frightening or genuinely concerned is a matter of perspective. (It's the latter.) ]
d; wildcard
[ Hit him up anywhere! He's most likely up and about, doing odd jobs, breakdancing for money, shopping for Christmas gifts, walking to the infirmary with injuries or skateboarding anxiously. Whatever, these are just a few ideas, GO CRAZY. ]

[ WHAT MENU!? No one actually knows how ViViD works. Most of the time I am just making things up. But look at that, Kaoru managed to access the map without doing what Yata told him. Way to go... ]
That works, too.
[ There is a crown icon flashing at the top of one of the towers. Red dots surround its base. ]
We have to make it up there, but there are guards on the ground floor...
no subject
As long as we defeat the guards, we'll be able to make it through, correct? What if we split up and regroup...?
[Yes leave someone this seemingly incompetent on their own...]
no subject
[ AN IMMEDIATE ANSWER. While they're talking, a guard hurriedly approaches them. He's blonde and has a boyish face like... someone you'd see in an otome game. Surreal.
"What are you doing here?" he says with concern. "It's not safe! There are intruders in the castle! I heard they were really strong..."
Before both of them can say anything, the NPC guard gasps when he hears footsteps. "Quick, in here!"
Kaoru is then grabbed by the wrist and held with his back pressed against the guard as they hide behind a wall, leaving Yata out in the open. But Kaoru's pain as a useless otome protag truly becomes real when he feels the the guard's heart race as he speaks to him in that deep voice of his. Wow. Thanks for getting action without him, Kaoru.
Meanwhile, someone who appears to be royalty walks toward Yata without much of a care for the ruckus outside. He's hot, too. Dammit, Yata's starting to get insecure... Why are the NPCs in this game stupidly sexy!? ]
