Back Again

[Action]

[Duo lifts himself from the tunnel entrance and slips through the shadows of town on his way back to his house. The shadows aren't perfect so of course he can be spotted from time to time, but he's still pretty good with the stealth. He's also tired and smelly. A few days running around the tunnels and then moving boxes wore him out pretty well.]

[Raivis has gotten rather good at checking shadows for Russias these days. He also for some reason seems to attract trauma on a dialy basis, so he's wandering around in the dark like a hopeless cause, trying to remember where his house is again. The poor thing is shaking like a leaf and whimpering a little, looking around in the dark when OH DEAR GOD WHAT. WHAT WAS THAT. HE SAW SOMEONE LURKING NNNNNGH.]

W-w-who's th-there?

[Omg hi, say hello to Rolo's twin. :D]

[Duo slips out of the shadows slowly, looking around. When he sees who was talking, he smiles and relaxes.] Sorry. 's just me. Didn't mean ta scare anyone.

[NNNNGH WHY DO YOU SAY "IT'S JUST ME" YOU WERE LURKING YOU HAVE BAD INTENTIONS] W-w-who a-are you?

[blinks a little, surprised by how jumpy and scared this kid is, but Yuri (the girl) was jumpy as well] I'm Duo Maxwell. I may run and hide, but I never tell a lie. Are ya lost?

[J-just have a little nod. He's still shaking like a leaf, but then again he does that all the time.]

[He smiles softly and rubs at his chest, just below his neck. He pulls out a small candy and offers it to the kid.] Well don't worry. Are you a new feather or do ya already have a place ya stay?

[Looks fearful when you pull something out of your shirt, like you're going to hand him a bomb or something, and looks briefly stunend when you give hi ma cadny instead. He takest hat from you with a trembling hand.] T-t-thank y-you...

[He now looks confused at the 'new feather' comment.]

Um... w-what d-does that mean...?

[Duo just keeps smiling. A bomb from his clothing is actually very likely.] A New Feather's someone who just got here. Think you're new either way. Do you have a house yet? I can take ya there if ya have a number. If not, there's apartments you can stay in. You can always move if ya don't like it there.

[he looks a bit overwhelmed. :|]

Um... I-I have a house...

Alright then, what's the number that's on the front? Do ya remember that?

I-It w-was number fourty-three, I th-think...

Alright then, we should be able ta find that, no sweat. Come on, should be over here. [Duo gestures and starts toward where the house is.]

[J-just. Follows you all nervous and shaky-like.]

[Duo tries to keep an eye on the poor thing.] So, you gotta name? Wanna know what ta call you or if I should make up a nickname now.

Um... R-Raivis is fine...

Raivis... hmmm... guess I'll have ta know ya better 'fore I think of a good nickname for ya. But I don't have a lotta time ta do that. Your house is just over there.

O-oh! [Relieved faise-- this place is scary at night.]

[Smiles at him] See? It's alright. You just be careful and don't wonder 'round at night.

R-right...

[Walks him up to the door] You can get in and to bed alright on your own, can't ya? If not, I'll come in with ya.

[...That reminds him of Russia ;; S-so he'll just shake his head.] N-no, I'm fine!

Alright, off with ya. And no more wanderin'. [Turns and waves a little over his shoulder]

[J-just. Nods nervously and closes that door. ;;]
