[ town filter ]

[ despite all the talk and the disappearances occurring in the town, uru hadn't stopped working till closing time at her job. if anything, they needed people to take some of those shifts because some of her own co-workers had changed their schedule around so they were working in the morning. it didn't bother her; they were scared obviously.

it... was a scary thought.

luckily, she lived close to her workplace so uru didn't need to think too much about it. she stepped up to her door and stretched her arms before she began digging into her pockets.

funny... she wasn't hearing a jingling sound... nor did she feel her keys in her pocket. oh... oh, crap. after another few minutes of searching her other pockets and her bag, she found nothing. she had lost her keys again? :/ and she couldn't go back to work because it was closed. it wouldn't re-open until 8AM.

with a glance in the castle's direction, uru sighed and starts off that path. ]

[He close by then. Almost close enough, but he pauses when she looks, keeping his head down and turning as if to look down the closest alley. Just a dude in a trench coat, don't mind him~]

[The only thing likely visible under the brim of his hat is the one mean eye... staring... right... at her...]

[ instantly jumping at the sight of mr. mysterious figure. well, that's not creepy at all. ]

H-Hi?!

[sonsofzeus.livejournal.com]

[....oh god, is she actually going to talk to him. Smiles a little and raises his... eyebrow... in amused surprise. He'll use Harvey's voice for now... This might be fun B)]

Ah... hello? Sorry, I didn't mean to startle you...

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ she can't see his face properly and squints slightly. the night sucked for that at times. ]

It's okay! I didn't realize there was someone else.

[sonsofzeus.livejournal.com]

[Just... tilts his head a little lower. No no, you don't get to see yet. Give it time...]

Where you headed?

[ stranger danger is not on yet. she points toward the castle. ]

Back there.

[ facepalm.png. ]

I lost my house keys again. It's like I'm cursed.

[sonsofzeus.livejournal.com]

[Little smile. She is... so... oblivious. How...]

Don't you think it's a little late to be out alone like this? I heard people've been disappearing...

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ her expression instantly falls. ]

I'm used to it but... it's terrible. One of my co-workers hasn't come back in weeks. [ she really hopes he's not... ]

Are you a resident of the castle, too?

[sonsofzeus.livejournal.com]

Hmm... [Glances down the alley again, and then across the street. They're alone. He's impatient... Soon]

Sometimes. I haven't been back there in awhile.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ she starts walking again. it is late... but she looks back to see if he'll join her or not. ]

You're living in the town?

[sonsofzeus.livejournal.com]

[Oh Uru... Uru, darling... Why of course he'll walk with her, falling into step beside her after a moment]

Mmhm. It's nice. Private. Well... more then the castle is anyway...

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ she smiles. ]

That's true. Not that I dislike the castle! But living out here is nice and at least when weird things happen back there, we're not affected. Like the eggs.

[sonsofzeus.livejournal.com]

Mmm... you still like that place? Frankly a few of the residents piss me off. [Or... something like that anyway] Easier to avoid them out here.

[ o-oh... ]

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

Mm, I do! [ she doesn't look at him as they keep going. ] But there's still a lot of good people there.

[sonsofzeus.livejournal.com]

[Turns enough to watch her, and probably the shadows shift enough to reveal part of his face. Just enough to look... weird...]

You think so?

[ she lets out a quiet laugh and starts to turn her head. ]

A lot of my friends are pretty amazing!

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ and that's when she notices something strange about his face. she stops dead in her tracks. ]

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ instantly, her stomach does an uncomfortable flip as she stares. was he badly hurt this whole time? ]

Your...

[sonsofzeus.livejournal.com]

[Oh.......]

[Oh B) Can't help by smile terribly as Harvey squirms. Mmm, been awhile, he'd almost forgotten what that look feels like. And now... yeah, he's done with pretenses, reaching up to rustle for something in his jacket. Possibly worse, his voice drops out of Harvey's quiet, calm tone and into a low, ugly growl]

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ YES, THERE'S A PROBLEM.

she takes a step back at first but feels guilty instantly. she tears her eyes away from his face, now going into a bit of a panic. ]

Are you hurt? We should go to the clinic.

[ but his current tone sends a nasty chill down her spine. ]

[And now he's got a gun. And he's pointing it... at her head...]

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ she holds her breath, eyes widening. what was going on? was he trying to rob her or... no, this wasn't something to do with the disappearances, was it? ]
