Who: Makoto Naegi and OPEN.
When: 12/24 & 12/25 icly.
Where: Various places.
What: Naegi tries to make sense of things. Or at least fumbles around for a few days trying to make the best of things...same difference!!
Rating/Warning: He's fairly mild but will probably think about murder game trauma being that's a thing that just happened. Probably Dangan Ronpa spoilers but just lemme know if you need me to avoid those (though I'd caution you away from any castmate threads if they happen in that case).
a; grocery shopping (12/24)
b; shopping for something else (12/25)

a; grocery shopping (12/24)
[ This is not Naegi Makoto's lucky day. He's a fairly terrible ViViD player, as he quickly finds out - game over, because he can't bring himself to attack someone really, and it takes him a while to actually get through things. After that is the power point that seems like it honestly could be an extension of the Mutual Killing game, except for the part where no one is insisting he try to kill anyone (except maybe aliens?) so that's...that's an improvement, but it still doesn't feel very lucky at all. Especially given that the powerpoint covers the end of his world - which, well, didn't he just do this...
...But this is even more literal than the last time, so. Okay. That's a thing. Following that, he can't locate anyone he knows. He tries their names on the CereVice, tries to ask around about the classmates he's misplaced, but there's no real luck there (ironic, given his talent) and while Naegi doesn't believe they're dead or lost to him forever, he does have to admit that at least immediately he might have to focus on something else.
Like picking an apartment, mostly at random (though nothing fancy, in the same way he'd picked a job). And acknowledging that he was hungry, and had to eat. Since he'd been supplied with credits enough for that (though he's going to be frugal, not knowing how long he's there), Naegi heads out to pick up some food since it seems to be left to him to do it...which is actually a nice change of pace. He looks more than a little lost and weirded out even as he locates a store, though. It's...strange. Being outside of Hope's Peak. Nice, except for the whole world-ending and missing classmates thing, but really strange. When was the last time he saw the real sky...? Or a sky that looked as real as this one?
A while, for sure. But Naegi's fascination with the sky is not really useful at this juncture, because he apparently is not skilled enough to walk while staring up and not become a catastrophe. Because that would be just his luck. It's not so much that he trips - although he seems to - but that one of the bags he's carrying breaks - why this - and several bottles of cherry-vanilla cola begin rolling free. Along with several more ordinary and healthy-ish groceries. Sorry if something rolls into you. Or if the short boy chasing after his scattering things gets in your way and trips and/or hinders you, he doesn't intend to do that... ]
A-ah, wait! [ Because talking to the groceries that roll away from him will stop them, clearly.
Honestly, he might also just run into people while looking up and/or around, in which case he'll always immediately stop and begin apologizing. ] I'm sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going... [ And who knows, maybe his bags break. AGAIN. Sorry if he drops a can of soup on your foot or something. Or he just looks apologetic and also lost, how the hell does he get back to his apartment again why this. ]
b; shopping for something else (12/25)
[ Having at least succeeded in getting groceries into his apartment (whatever mishaps happened, at leas the was determined to do that) Naegi ventures out again the next day in the morning, clutching a packet. He'll eventually hit up shops, and can be found taking things out of the packet - specifically, he's trying to find photo frames that will fit a variety of dumb pictures from the manilla envelope he'd been carrying around. He's apparently brought them along to double-check for size, so it's possible to catch a glimpse of them as he frowns and tries to find things that work.c; bike shop (12/25)
...Simple black frames should be all right, right...? But single frames, or one of those photoboard...things? ]
Ah...pardon me! Do you think a collage would look nicer in an apartment...? Or single frames...? I've never really been in charge of decorating anything. [ His parents had done that...well, and he'd never really done much out of the ordinary with his own room. Hadn't had many photographs, either. ]
[ Well, he can't count on those credits to last forever. Even if Naegi hasn't bothered to buy anything other than groceries and photo frames (he...bought a few clothes, but nothing major and mostly jeans and tees, he's very simple in terms of fashion), he doesn't want to do nothing and he should probably at least try to get involved in whatever all this is so he'll better be able to help his friends. Whenever he finally finds them again.
So he's sitting behind the counter of the shop, his nametag pinned to his shirt as he flips through the employee manual, looking more than a little nervous. Those nerves won't abate if someone comes in (what if they ask him something hard) but he'll try to smile all the same. Why are you buying a bike on Christmas? Why is Naegi bothering to do something like go in to work on Christmas? Who knows. ]
Er, welcome! Can I help you with anything?

[ If you have your own scenario in mind, feel free to throw it at me and I'll roll with it. ]

I mean, Naegi-san! That's right, right? It's really nice to meet you too!
If you want to make it look nice for your friends, have you thought about furniture and stuff yet? That's going to be important too!
no subject
Mm, well there's some furniture in there already...but admittedly just the basics. For now, I think I'll decorate the walls...and save up for a nice couch...? After all, I have to be careful about my budget.
[ HE SUPPOSES... ]
no subject
It's probably a good idea to get your walls done first anyway. Because once you get your walls colored and decorated, you can pick furniture that matches everything else. But a nice couch, and you'll want a nice table too! So you guys can have lunch and get togethers and play games and stuff!
[What is watching your budget? She doesn't know. She and her brother both have jobs AND are both students, so they can totally afford to blow cash!! For now, anyway...]
no subject
[ But he has no idea what Hinata's classmates look like or anything. APPARENTLY, THEY LOOK LIKE DARK ANIME CHARACTERS... ]
Your apartment must look pretty nice. Have you been here a long time...?
no subject
[Hinata's classmates...well no, Mabel can't complain about them. She's met most of them and she loves them all.]
As for my apartment, thank you! I like to think it's very classy, even with Dipper around to make a mess of things. I've been here for a little bit. Not too long though, there are people who've been here a lot longer than me. Oh! But long enough that I might be able to help if you have any questions!
no subject
[ Even if he has no idea what the hell Tanaka Gundam is talking about for the most part... ]
Dipper would be your brother? Is he older than you?
no subject
[This Tanaka guy sounds like a real card! Too bad he is not as easily understandable as this adorable little girl is, huh?]
He is, and nope! We're twins! If you want to get technical though, I'm the older one. He'll never accept it, but it's true!
no subject
[ He's gonna wear his sneakers. WATCH HIM. Also wow two small children living alone that is...a thing. ...She seems happy at least, but still... ]
Eh, I see. I'm also an older sibling myself, though my sister isn't here.
no subject
[Naegi don't wear your sneakers...but yes, that is a thing. They're pretty tough and durable though! And can rely on each other better than anyone, so it's not so bad. Even if neither of them can really cook...]
Oh cute! You have a younger sister! You're totally the big brother type though I can tell. Hopefully they can...rescue her code or...whatever it is that they do though! Living with your sibling is the best thing, hands down.
no subject
A suit? Er, I suppose I could try to rent one.
[ He's gonna wear his sneakers, okay. And Naegi can teach Mabel...really simple ordinary recipes someday maybe. At least he's going to be cooking for himself, anyway... ]
no subject
Oh, do you want some help buying one? Because Dipper and I both have jobs and we both go to school, I can afford something like that! But there are some nice places to rent suits too, with lots of selection!
[Honestly she won't judge. He's a boy. Boys are all stubborn and dumb generally when it comes to clothes. And she would love to learn! She's basically trying to pick up recipes wherever she can at this point so...
Since Dipper insists they can't just eat out all the time.]
no subject
[ HE HAS ENOUGH...he's just being very frugal... ]
After all, you should spend your money on things for yourself.
