[ SOME DWEEB is sitting on an overturned robot. He's playing a game on his cellphone but next to him is a gym bag with tennis shoes and a volleyball.

Clearly you should bother him :u ]

[watching this...]

[neuroticat]

[ keeps playing his game, but looks over discreetly. ]

[whistical]

[waves in a fingers wiggling coyly kind of way]

[neuroticat]

[ => pretend like I didn't see that and am TOO ENGROSSED IN MY GAME TO HAVE SEEN THAT yes ]

[whistical]

[yesssss remain engrossed in your game... and the next time you look up he'll be missing]

[neuroticat]

[ um . . . ]

[multitalented]

Hey, is that guy you're sitting on alright?

[Can robots even die? That one certainly seems to be pretty dead if someone is sitting on him like that.]

[neuroticat]

[ . . . he looks surprised to be addressed but - glances down at the robot, back up, back down. . . ]

I . . .


. . . dunno.

[multitalented]

[He looks down at the robot as well.]

Seems like he's out of batteries or whatever these things run on.

[neuroticat]

. . .


Mm. . .

[ back to his cellphone game . . . ]

[multitalented]

[Wow rude.]

This is a good chance to see how these things work, aren't you curious?

[neuroticat]

. . . not really.

[multitalented]

....

Well, I am.

[Just going to shove you off like it's no big deal.]

[boxcutter]

Excuse me.

[neuroticat]

[ . . . looks up . . .

looks around . . . ]

. . . yes?

[boxcutter]

You're in the way.

[neuroticat]

I'm . . .

Sorry.

[ shifts. . . over. . . ]

[boxcutter]

Well? Aren't you going to move your… companion? It hardly seems fair to make somebody else to the work.

[neuroticat]

[ . . . ]

It was here. . . like this.

. . . when I got here.

[helicine]

Ahh, Kenma. So that's where you were.

Oi, what's that you're sitting on?

[neuroticat]

Kuro.

[ looks up from his game. ]

Dunno. It was here. Where did you go?

[helicine]

The bus stop. It looks like the next bus isn't coming until the evening. Tch', it's so far out, here. . .

[ looking over the robot, and nudging it with his foot. ] You know, it's probably not a good idea to sit on that.

[neuroticat]

I got tired of standing and it hasn't moved since I sat down. We could walk . . .

[ doesn't sound so happy about it though ]

[helicine]

There are better places to sit, but if it's comfortable, whatever.

We're probably not going to make it home for dinner. There are a few stores nearby. [ not quite an urging tone—he's fine with whatever kenma decides to choose. (they're probably going to end up going to the store sooner or later, anyway.) ]

[neuroticat]

I was just passing time.

[ pushes a few more buttons on his phone - not ignoring Kuro, he's going to get up soon once he finds the motivation ]
