Who: Cyrus ( ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
soulist ) & you
When: IC: Feb 3rd
Where: Everywhere!
What: Cyrus going about his daily routine/business
Rating/Warning: Nada!
Gym: Early Morning
So anyone around today will notice Cyrus training and training pretty hard too. He’s decked out in his full armor with his spear in hand as he uses a combination of magic and brute strength to fend off the virtual enemies. They range from all things typical to things unseen and unheard of. Normally he’d be content with just this but it’s after a few minutes that he just lets out an aggravated sigh, which turns into a pretty painful sounding cough. He’ll take a break then looking around eventually for a partner to spar with.
“Hey. Do mind if we train together for a bit? There’s only so much I can do with these virtual things.” At least he’s not too pushy if one declines. But he looks pretty serious as he holds his multi-pronged spear in his robotic left hand.
Tech and Auto Shop: Mid-Afternoon
After his workout he’ll be roaming around Cerealia with literally no place in mind to really go. So he’s outside the Tech shop today, or more specifically, outside the CYbuddy portion of it. He’s leaning down with a hand on his chin as he looks at the myriad of cute animals on display in their respective display cases. He looks…conflicted. He’s not sure if he wants one or not but honestly he wouldn’t mind the company? Ah choices are hard these days. Still there’s a particular grumpy looking snake cybuddy that looks a lot like Cyrus to be sure.
He might stand there for a few minutes, blushing as a particularly cute dog wags its tail and looks up at him with cute puppy dog eyes. But he'll just huff and turn away about ready to bolt and pretend he never stepped foot in this place. He's not paying attention to where he's going, so of course he might just run into you.
Ceres food stop: Evening
So one can actually find Cyrus cooking behind the counter of one of the many vending booths at a particularly busy burger joint. He doesn’t look really enthused with what he’s making though. Because hamburgers, as far as he can tell, weren’t supposed to red, white, and pink. Nor were they supposed to be drizzled in chocolate? It's gross, what the hell. Apparently it’s a monthly Valentine’s Day theme or something? So he’ll also be handing out chocolates with fortunes in them with explicit statements and various ideas for people to use on Valentine’s Day itself. What the hell is wrong with this place?! So, yeah, don’t mind him if he looks pissed off as he drops off a basket of chocolates at your table suddenly.
“Compliments of the establishment. Apparently these for valentine’s day coming up.” He looks so annoyed because he had to fill them with ridiculous papers. This place sure is something...

tech and auto shop!
Shopping?
no subject
I-I just had some time before work to, you know, browse. Not really shopping...
[ Though there is a cute puppy cybuddy that will pointedly stare back at him before he huffs and looks away. ] I haven't really decided if I want one yet.
no subject
[ to which he laughs. no pressure at all, cyrus. don't worry about it. ]
no subject
I can't believe they have so many varieties. They even have a dragon...and mythological things. It's pretty impressive. Which one would you pick if you had to?
no subject
[ He looks down at his feet, a fond smile on his face. ]
I had one back at home. Well, it was my aunt's but he was family. I have a dog CYbuddy, though. It helps with scouting the area a lot.
no subject
Palma Ult has all sorts of pets from all different planets. Cats and dogs are sort of a rarity on there. But seeing them so easily obtainable, even just robotic forms, is pretty interesting.
no subject
You had a six-legged snake as a pet.
[ He's only joking, of course. Please smack this nerd, Cyrus. ]
no subject
It was the size of a small house. So house training it might be a bit of a nightmare. [ As he laughs a little afterwards. ]
But, yeah, we have a lot of interesting things on Palma as pets...I think the most common thigns were called Norios. They were like a tiny bird but they glowed in the dark at night and their colors shifted to depict their moods. We also have things like cybuddies as well.
no subject
Huh! Those Norios sound pretty cute, actually. You ever had one?
no subject
Tech and Auto shop!
Though since she's too busy staring at them, she doesn't look where she's going, and so there's a bit of a minor collision. "Ah-!" At least Mitchell reaches to steady them so they don't fall over, and when Lapis sees who she ran into, she looks faintly sheepish.
"- Oh, uh, sorry, Cyrus. I was a bit too focused on the puppies."
no subject
"No. It's okay. I-I kinda of was too. Sorry about that..." ah he will just rub the back of his neck with his robotic hand.
"Are you looking for one too?"
no subject
"... Mmhm, I am. Some company in the apartment that isn't a ghost would be nice." She takes another look at the puppies - almost distracted by how cute they are before looking back at Cyrus again.
"I'm still not sure what one I want though... What about you?"
no subject
"I never really had a pet before so I don't know how good I'd be with one. I guess I'm just a little wary is all. These are made by Ceres...but I guess they're safe if so many people here have them." He might be a tad bit paranoid with all that's happened here thus far. Whose to say the cybuddies aren't some sort of maniacal machine used to get at them in their homes?!
"Something exotic might be cool to have. I heard that dogs back on Earth were really popular though. There weren't too many on Palma Ult...they were almost an extravagant sort of purchase, since Earth had been destroyed a long time ago."
Everything from Earth and other planets was expensive, but hybrid things were easily bought and cultivated.
no subject
But they are really cute. Now she crosses her arms as she thinks some more, blinking over at Cyrus when he mentions how Earth has been destroyed. "Ah... Yeah, dogs are one of the most popular pets, along with cats. My grandmother has a cat, though he's pretty grumpy. But exotic pets like snakes or spiders are pretty popular too."
Pause. And just because she can't resist asking - "... But, ah, how did Earth get destroyed?"
food stop
He looks at the chocolate, then up at the angry-looking guy, then...blinks. He's not saying anything, just staring.
Luckily the fox on his shoulder is more talkative. "Thank you, sir! Though you don't seem very pleased with this gift...?"
no subject
Though he might look a bit surprised when the fox does the talking instead of the guy sitting in the seat. Weird man, but not really anything he finds too terrible surprising.
"It's just...the crap they wrote on those pieces of paper for us to put inside the chocolates is kind of vulgar." He means more than vulgar actually but, well, guess he'll just have to pray that the other isn't easily offended.
"It wasn't my idea to, just so you know. Sorry in advance if-if it offends you..."
no subject
Nakigitsune looks back at the chocolates. Could a piece of paper really offend someone? Well, someone could have written...an insult or something on it....but then why would you give insults as presents?
.....Well, only one way to solve this. He picks up a chocolate and carefully bites it open, as his fox keeps talking.
"Surely it can't be that bad! They wouldn't be gifted to people otherwise, would they?"
no subject
"Just...don't read it. I mean you shouldn't read it. The paper doesn't have anything to really write home about."
no subject
....And staring at it.
After a moment he looks back up at the guy, an unreadable expression on his face.
"Did you write these?"
no subject
"They made us use those. It wasn't by choice, believe me." And here he'll cough into his hand a little. Being embarrassed and flustered aggravates his cough more so than it typical was.
"That's why I'm telling people not to look."
no subject
Oh well.
"Being ordered to give people what I am assuming are inappropriate messages doesn't seem to be a very good business practice..." A pause. "Though neither of us knows much of business, admittedly."
"The chocolate tastes alright."
At least there's that??
gym!
Wiping the sweat off her forehead, she turns to him, taking note of that left hand of his. She should say no, because pretending to have a human's strength is always exasperating, but she's a teeny bit curious.]
... Sure, I don't mind. [Well. Maybe it could be a good exercise in restraining herself.] What do you have in mind?
[Because, uh. She was working on her hand-to-hand, and she has never touched a weapon in her life.]
no subject
Ah, well, I was thinking of practicing with my spear but if you prefer something else instead I'm cool with whatever. [ He hasn't run into any ghouls so he will be surprised if she uses her kagune for any reason. ]
I really just don't want my skills to get too rusty, you know?
no subject
It's fine if you use your spear, but— [How does she say this without sounding stupid...] All I know is hand-to-hand. Do you mind?
no subject
Mm. Yeah that's fine. If you're sure about it. I can do hand-to-hand too, if you'd be more comfortable with that. [ He shrugs as he looks back at the training room. ]
I'm not too picky as long as I can train something and not with that virtual crap for once.
no subject
She takes a step towards the training room, and glances back at him.]
Let's start. I have to work in two hours, so I don't have time to waste.
no subject
He'll twirl his spear in his hands and level it off pointing it at her. His expression turns into one of deep concentration now. ] Ready whenever you are.
no subject
Thankfully, she's already warmed up from her earlier exercises, so there's no need to stretch. When he settles into position, she nods, adopts a fighting stance, and then—
She lunges at him, aiming a kick at his legs.]
food
Ah, thank you. [He looks him over for a name tag.] Though you do realize as a server you are meant to maintain a pleasant attitude when interacting with guests.
no subject
It's hard to be pleasant when you're handing out this kind of crappy quality of food. This place really sucks when it comes to being fair to its customers.
[ Though even if he sounds a bit snappish he doesn't mean anything against the other man. It's hard being happy when you're forced to give this kind of product to people... ] But, yeah, you're right. Sorry about that. I guess I sometimes let the craziness of this place get to me.
no subject
[He does earn points for taking responsibility. There might be a tip in it for him after all.]
I don't envy you. It's easier only having to deal with robots for the most part.
no subject
I dunno the robots here are...the last one I dealt with tried to take me in for repairs because of my limbs. [ He really was still pissed about that, tbh. ]
Rather not deal with them every again either.
